Bricked, cant restore or fix

I have an bricked Iphone 3GS. I've tried to restore the firmware by clicking restore. So i supose the Iphone restored to 4.3.3?

When almost done, i get the 1015 error on Itunes and my Iphone is bricked. ( http://www.iphonefootprint.com/wp-conten...)

I've tried everything to unbrick the Iphone:

Most of the youtube fixes.

Fixrecovery and zlib1 file => Al goes good untill i get the apple logo. My phone doesn't reboot like show in link. I get the bricked phone image again. Can someone explain me what to do? Wich firmware to download, etc.

I'm on baseband 06.15.00

Thank you Brad for the response. I've just done what you told me. I've created the snowbreeze file, restored the Iphone.

!!!It worked!!!

I now have 4.3.3 firmware and 06.15.00 baseband.

Cydia is already installed but i dont have Wifi. any sugestions? do I have to re-jailbreak?

Try to make a new Custom Firmware with Sn0wbreeze, but this time when setting up Sn0wbreeze click the "Custom Packages" box and add ultrasn0w and any other Cydia apps you might need. If Sn0wbreeze will not let you add ultrsn0w here then do not use this file(Custom Firmware).

I've ran snowbreeze, reselecting the 4.3.3 ipsw file, then clicked the custom packages. Then I see select packages, download packages and manage sources.

Ultasnow is allready in the manage sources tab. What do i have to do next? Thx in advanced

I thought your problem was possibly not having Ultrasn0w on your iPhone right now. If Ultrasn0w is already there do not do anything. Do you get telephone service now on the iPhone? If yes, then you are good. I thought because you said No Wifi you could not get your iPhone at least working as a phone again. Regarding the No WiFi issues I don't have a good answer.

I now have my SIM-card in the Iphone. Thats the provider wich i have to unlock. Because with that card, i only get the Itunes, usb plug + Slide ( http://hottipscentral.com/blog/wp-conten... ( example picture)).

Go to cydia, and run ultrasnow.

Should be fixed.

I had problems with wifi. Couldn't find my network. I went close to the wifi antenna, and had reception. Could instal Ultrasnow and phone was JB and Unlocked.

If you're having the same problem, check your cable 6!
