Well, I was trying to update my iPhone (running 4.2.8) and whenever it extracts the software, right after it finishes I get a message that says "The iPhone "" could not be updates. This device isn't eligible for the requested build." Is this because I am not running 4.2.9? I'm jailbroken, but I've decided that for how my phone is, I really don't need it to be jailbroken. Especially since iOS5 will have an equivalent to LockInfo. Thanks for any help!
Got a tip for us?

You need to go in and change your hosts file back to the way it was. I don't remember exactly what to change, but iTunes is looking to Saurik's server and it needs to be looking to Apple.
OK, thanks. I was actually having some intermittent happenings anyway so I think I'll just restore my iPhone with the new software.
