FAQ-iPhone Downgrade

Downgrade iPhone Software
(+) Is it possible to downgrade iphone 4 software? I upgraded my iphone 4 to 4.1 by accident and didnt save shsh.But my wifes iphone is still 4.0.2 Is it possible to still downgrade my iphone 4 to 4.0.2 3
(-) google search iphone firmwares and download it, save it to your desktop. Go to itunes and where it says restore, click it while holding shift and select the iphone firmware you downloaded. if you need it jailbroken use redsn0w and download the shsh's you need. I have read of some cases where it is impossible. You might be able to though. Yes, but i wouldn't. Most of them would provably be viruses.

(+) How do I downgrade my iPhone in iTunes 10? SO I recently undated iTunes to iTunes 10. Unfortunately I do not know any way to downgrade my iPhone 3gs on the new 4.1 (not 4.0.1) to 4.0.2. Any suggestions?
(-)Ok Dude. first off.. I want to say Sorry. And i Apologize because… since you have updated past the 4.0.2 iOS you CAN NORMALLY NOT downgrade.
If you were on the 4.0/4.0.2 You Could downgrade easily (without causing harm the the iPod Flash Drive), but "Normally" Not happening after the 4.1 Update. With that being said; there was an exploit found that will allow iPod/iPhone Users to downgrade..
( I am NOT Guaranteeing it will work and am NOT Held Responsible for any damages that could be caused to the iPod. USE AT OWN RISK & READ. READ. READ!!!)

(+) How do you downgrade and iphone 3g from ios4 to 3.1.3? I have read many forums and advise pages on how to downgrade my iphone 3g from software IOS4 to 3.1.3, the only problem is need to put the phone is DFU mode, now i cannot do this as the power button on my phone is broken. Is there any other way to do it without turning it off. Thanks
(-) If you have an iPhone 3G and you have this feeling that upgrading to iOS 4 has slowed down your device and that you want to go back to iPhone 3.1.3 / 3.1.2. Or if you are one of those iPhone 3GS (new bootrom) or iPod touch 3G / 2G (MC model) user who has upgraded to iOS 4 only to find out that you cant jailbreak it can follow the instructions posted below to downgrade iOS 4.0 to iOS (formerly iPhone 3.1.3 or 3.1.2).
Step 1: Download the old iPhone OS 3.1.3, iPhone OS 3.1.2 ipsw firmware files. (Download links: 3.1.3 / 3.1.2)
* Connect your iPhone to your computer.
* Turn iPhone off.
* Start iTunes.
* iTunes will now recognize your iPhone. Note: Your iPhone screen at this time should be blank (black in color), if not, then you are most likely in Recovery Mode, not DFU mode.

Step 3: This step is applicable to iPhone 3GS, iPod touch 3G and iPod touch 2G (MC model) which have their SHSH blobs (ECID SHSH) saved on Cydia for the firmware you downgrading on. If you don't have your SHSH files saved, you cannot downgrade the mentioned devices. So what we will do is to trick iTunes into thinking that it is watching Apple servers, while in real, we are going to change the address to Saurik's server.
* Navigate to C:WindowsSystem32driversetc and locate "hosts" file. Hosts file in Windows Mac users can get to "/etc/" directory by going through "Go –> Go to Folder" from Finder. Hosts file in OS X * Open this "hosts" file in Notepad (for Windows) or TextEdit (for Mac OS X) and add this gs.apple.com line as shown in the screenshot below: 21 Now simply save this file and you are good to go! NOTE for Windows 7 and Vista: Start "Notepad" with Administrator privileges by right clicking on "Notepad" app, and click on "Run as Administrator" option.

Step 4: You will now have to restore your iPhone or iPod touch to the firmware you downloaded in Step 1. Click on your phone icon from the sidebar in iTunes. Now press and hold left "alt" (option) button on Mac (Left "Shift" button on Windows) on the keyboard and then click on "Restore" (Not "Update" or "Check for Update") button in the iTunes and then release this button. iTunes This will make iTunes prompt you to select the location for your downloaded firmware file. Select that ipsw file and click on "Open".

(-) You should never upgrade to 3.1.3 then do a downgrade. It is a different boot rom and their is not hack to reverse it to 3.1.2. I would go on line and do a search for the 3.1.2 software file. I would click restore and press it think it option on the mac. I don't know pc and restore it to 3.1.2. Once you update 3.1.3 you cannot unlock it as of right now. go to this web site its shows ya how to do it ther m8 http://igeeks.co.nr

(+) Can i downgrade from my iphone 3g to something cheaper? I have had an iphone 3g for a couple of months now and it is a little more expensive. Is there a way I can get a cheaper phone?

(+) How do I downgrade iphone from version 3.1.3? I need to downgrade from version 3.1.3 back to the previous version. Can anyone help me?

(-) Apple will not let you. The only way is with the aid of Jailbreaking. The Jailbreak software will create a file that you can put on your phone. My best advice is to Jailbreak the current software and leave it on there. If you do this, your iPhone will do anything and everything!

(+) Will the iphone still work as a phone if i downgrade it from 1.1.3 to 1.1.1?
