Hey everyone, I want to downgrade my bricked incorrect SIM iPhone.. Can someone give me all the details on this? I followed most of the other threads stuff:
"The sim error is normal. Now flash back the 3.14.03 modem firmware using "putty". Go to hackintosh for more info.

Here are the steps:

1) Make sure you have a copy of the 1.0.2 firmware handy and decrypted
2) Reboot iPhone holding top (power) and home buttons *BUT* release the top button 10 seconds into it (right after the screen goes dark)
3) The iPhone screen will appear to be off, but start iTunes (latest version worked for me on the Mac)
4) Option+Click restore and select the 1.0.2 firmware ipsw
5) The phone will restart and error out at the end, this is expected
6) Shutdown iTunes
7) Launch the latest iNDpendence
8) Jailbreak the phone using a decrypted 1.0.2 (it will flash all sorts of error, but stick with it)
9) Activate the phone
10) It will show the SIM error but you should be able to get back in"

Ok well I didn't understand encrypted firmware, steps 7, 8...... or what putty is.. help please.

ok you may have to do this the other way... but your back to 1.0.2 and thats a great start... your gonna need to download some software and do a few things to get this going again... you need to deactivate with iphoneinterface to get the imei number and ccid number... but here is the guide... i can help you though if you want...

im on aim.. s/n is skiz05 and if your running windows xp i can do it for you via remote access

thats the best way to pair a sim card to a phone as long as its an att sim... because i had that issuse because i didnt use the origanl sim that came with the phone because i bought it used... worked like a charm...
