I have a 1604 error. 3gs 16 gb old boot
Whe they publish crap like this? Everybody know that these cooked ipsw are useless since 1600 problem and lack of iReb for 3GS .
I guess they want people to be punked on their phones. Make sure you save SHSH in Cydia before you ever try anything like this.
Credibility drops pretty quick when all iPhone sites publish unchecked guides like these.
2010 is the year of CRETINS!
