Hey,
I have an iphone 3gs I bought second hand on a filipino market. I was running 5.1.1 but stupidly upgraded to 6.1.2 and now it is bricked, Ie I can't get it activated so can't even use it as an IPOD. Problem is I am no longer in philippines so I can't input a valid sim in order to get it 'activated' by Itunes...
I've tried:
1) to downgrade to 5.1.1 using redsn0w without any luck.
2) taken the phone to an official repair shop who couldn't do anything without a valid sim
So from everybody's posts, it seems like my only chance might be to change my imei number? not exactly sure where to start with this... really can't afford a new model phone so any help would be greatly appreciated... Canker_Canison, any ideas!?
happy for people to contact me privately about this, not sure if it is permitted on this site...
Thanks so much in advance,
Toby
