Hey, I had 4.3.1 on my iphone but it was getting very slow with so many tweaks, so i saved the blobs and i tried to install 4.3.3 but in the middle i got error 1013, after 2 more times of trying and getting that error i got the error that says this firmware wont work on this iphone or well it went something like that. after i read that apple blocked 4.3.3 and so basically im stuck with no ios on my phone since it gliched. i then had no choice but to go on 4.3.4 but i knew that it might be fine since my blobs are saved both through cydia and tinyumbrella. so i was wondering how to downgrade to 4.3.1 or 4.3.3, because i have no idea how to. thanks!!
 
Run the TU server. Start iTunes. Press option+restore. Pick the iOS that you've already d/l from apple's servers.

You should be able to Shift + Restore (Option key on a Mac) to the 4.3.3 IPSW and you're set.

He needs to start TSS server first and then shift restore.

Put your device in DFU mode first then restore.

20= antivirus usually
 
Try this. D/l pwnage and create a custom firmware with 4.3.3. Install with the instructions I gave you. You'll have to use pwnage's dfu mode. Also, don't start iTunes until you're ready to install the custom firmware.
This may not work, but it won't screw up your phone either.

OP has a Mac. The only thing I can figure is that lion might be interfering somehow, but I haven't seen comex or musclenerd tweet about it.

Use Recboot to kick it out of recovery mode. OR you can use TinyUmbrella...

Try using tinyumbrella fix recovery program.

I had these instructions in another thread...this worked for me:



So I rebooted the computer, changed the usb, put the iPhone in pwnd DFU mode via iReb(maybe it was redsn0w i had tried both can't remember now), ran TU again(yes, i had my blobls), opened Itunes, shift-restore, chose the STOCK 4.3.3 ipsw, ran into error 1013 at end of install, used tinyumbrella fix recovery program(grabbed from their site), watched the greenpoison script scroll down through my phone, and phone worked just fine, then i used redsnow to and the stock ipsw fine, installed the jailbreak ipsw with redsnow, phone rebooted and cydia was then on the phone

Okay i have done everything you said but in tinyumbrella the fix recovery button is grey and you can not choose it

edit. okay i figured out that i needed to use the one that was no in tinyumbrellla but the one that they supplied on their site. so i used it, put my device in dfu mode and it had the writing on the iphone screen and then it completed but it returned to the same screen which was the connect to itunes, so basically im stumped on what to do

edit2. Okay i figured out that inorder to use the fix recovery mode on the tinyumbrella application my phone needed to be in dfu mode im just seeing if this one will work now

edit3. okay its not working its just going back to the connect to itunes screen because when the fix recovery thing was on the phone it said unable to find something im not sure what though
