If you are getting error (1) or error (6) while downgrading the firmware, you need to put your iPhone in DFU mode before you can restore or downgrade the firmware.
Step 1. Turn off your iPhone.
Step 2. Hold down the power and home button.
Step 3. When you see the Apple logo, release the power button but continue holding the home button down.
Step 4. Open iTunes and wait for it to tell you that its in restore mode.
Alternative Method:
Step 1. Connect iphone to USB then listen to the sound when it connect and disconnect.
Step 2. Hold the home and power buttons until hear the disconnect sound then release power button.
Step 3. Wait until you hear another sound then release home button.
Alternate Method: Going Into DFU Mode Without Button Pushing: (on windows) Easier than timing the buttons just right!
1.) First download the required archive http://www.sendspace.com/file/93fx93
2.) Extract the archive to the root of your hard drive, should be C:/DFU/
3.) Connect your iPhone and ignore iTunes
4.) Goto Start – run
5.) Next type in “c:/dfu/dfu iBSS.m68ap.RELEASE.dfu”
6.) Wait for iPhone to show a “white” screen
7.) Now you may proceed to downgrade!
**also these files are found in ibrickr’s directory except for the .dfu file**

Hello, it did not work, if i restore my iphone into its original or factory setting, will it delete my all files specifically PHOTOS? thank you
just exactly for those of us who aren’t programming whizz how do you get to this root
what is up my ninjas.
just so you know, this no helps you make DFU. only helps put recovery. recovery =/= dfu and will not allow redsnow to jailbreak. or allow you to jailbreak on anything but blackrain (as far as i know) if your power button broke-is only thing for you to do are downgrade your software to 3.1.3 (or whatever blackrain uses)
jailbreak with blackrain
upgrade with custom firmwares to whatever you want-is
cheers mates 🙂

my ipad date is displaying february and the day and the year of 2513BE do you know what is wrong? thank you
please can you saw us how can we do the 3th way for dfu mode because i cant do it that.
Easier than going through iTunes. My daughter couldn’t remember her password, tried 4 times to push all the buttons and hook to my computer to restore to factory settings. Each time it said couldn’t connect because it was locked and I need to enter pass code. I called apple. They said do the same thing. Didn’t work. I asked them about wiping it clean through the find I phone app I had on my iPad that enables you to wipe an apple product if lost. She said I have never heard of that, but it may work. Sure enough I tried it and it took 5 seconds to wipe it back to factory settings through find I phone app. Wish I had figured that out prior to the 2 hours trying the computer way.
now here is my case ……i’ve gt an iphone 3g , its been stuck in recovery mode for like two weeks now,,,,i tried to update i think it had iso 4.0 or 4.1 nto 100% sure usin itunes,, it gives me error 1015 wen i try to restore it……help me out sm1.

I have a strange problem. Using windows 7, I click run in the start menu, and put in the command, but all that this does is open the “dfu” folder.

Hmm it appears like your website ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I’ll just
sum it up what I had written and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying
your blog. I too am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to the
whole thing. Do you have any points for first-time blog writers?
I’d definitely appreciate it.
Hey great website! Does running a blog such as this take a great deal of work?
I’ve very little expertise in computer programming however I was hoping to start my own blog soon. Anyway, if you have any recommendations or tips for new blog owners please share.
I understand this is off subject but I simply needed to ask.
Thanks a lot!
