    Unhappy HELP!!! Iphone 3GS stuck in pwned DFU mode

    Please help me getting my Iphone 3GS out of pwned DFU mode (black scree, detected by itunes as in recovery mode).. I tried restoring to custom firmwares (4.3.3 and 5.0.1) but after completion , the phone does not restart and again goes in pwned DFU mode !!

    I have tried pressing home+power key combinations and also tried tinyumbrella's Fix Recovery option.

    Seriously Need Help Guys !!

    Did you use the shsh blobs to help restore if your in dfu might as well do a custom restore, you may need to update to 5.1 since I don't know exactly what's going on.

    If you saved the shsh blobs for previous updates just do a custom restore to iOS 5.1 then if you want get the blobs for the older firmware and downgrade.

    I think update to ios5.1 will be OK,and if you've saved you shsh ,you can use ifaith to make your own custom restore ,then you can go back to 5.0.1

    make sure u don't do official 5.1 ipsw to update bb. use sn0wbreeze or other tool and make 5.1 custom. Then go back and restore with 5.0.1.
    U can as well use tinyumbrella to fix recovery. [ try that if that works]
