can someone shed some light on this....

i just restored my iphone 3gsusing the latest 4.0.ipsw (thru itunes)...that process went smoothly. Now i'm trying to jailbreak using redsnow (0.9.5b-5) with that same 4.0.ipsw but it says "unable to recognize ipsw".

i'm not able to check the FW version or bootrom because i'm stuck in "connect to itunes" screen. I can put it in DFU mode with no problem. I'm pretty sure its a 3gs because i tried to JB with spirit early on and it showed that a 3gs was connected.

I've tried 3 versions of redsnow and blackra1n.

What am I doing wrong here?
thanks
