Hey guys I am trying to downgrade from 4.3.3 to 4.2.1. I have my SHSH blobs saved and I'm running the TSS Server and everything goes through fine until it reboots, I get error (1) and I am stuck in recovery mode. Has anyone ran into this problem and now how to fix it?

EDIT - Could it be because I am using 10.5 beta? I upgraded to iOS 5 fine, didn't like it, reverted back to 4.3.3 but now I want to go back to 4.2.1 is this possible?
 
See my posts in this thread.

Although I've never seen an error code "1" before. However running iTunes 10.5 shouldnt be an issue.

4.2.1 seems to be finicky with recovery loops but you should be able to still JB while in recovery loop because you need to enter dfu anyway so recovery loop is not an issue.
 
All right I did that and I got my phone on 4.2.1 but now an even weirder problem. When I exit and enter iTunes, my phone pops up in recovery mode BUT then pops up fine. iTunes registers 2 iphones and one is always in recovery mode but it's not..because I can use it. I don't know how to get rid of that.
