Desperately Seeking...I've just attempted to upgrade my iphone 3Gs. Previously JB'd w/ redsSn0w. I was stuck in what I assume is bootloop: endless itunes restore messages. After numerous recycles, it showed the apple icon, grey screen, started a set-up procedure. Does this mean I'm now out of the bootloop, good to go? It needs Wifi to continue, which I can do tomorrow at local library.
I'm a total idiot in relating to my iphone. I only bought it for emergencies, as I couldn't work out how to use my old Nokia for msm. I feel like I've got a VCR mentality. So I have no aptitude at all for working w/ this. I'm fine on my iMac.
Iposted here because the thread I was referring to is old now. (

Please, I'm afraid that I have to throw this phone in the trash.
:-(...Unless it's actually managed to upgrade, and I can continue. Do I need to go back to redSn0w to complete? Or is it likely that w/ WiFi I'm set up now? Thanks very much

If you hit any issues during the setup issue when you've an internet connection, let me know if you run into any issues.
The only thing I might have done incorrectly was getting the IPSW for RedSn0w to work. I downloaded it, but whenever I clicked on it, iTunes came to the front. So I finally just let iTunes do it's thing...w/ the above results.
I'm finished for today. Can anyone suggest a fix? Should I go for RedSn0w jailbreak instead of restore? I originally used RedSn0w to jailbreak this phone about a year ago...HELP! please.
