I NEED HELP
This is what happened:

My cousin bought me a :apple: iPhone 3gs, but it turns out that he bought it locked for the U.S only. So I found out about Redsn0w.
I downloaded the version 0.9.15b3 and so I opened it up I went to extras and selected the IPSW iPhone2,1_6.0_10A403_Restore.ipsw
and then went to Jailbreak it so I checked Install Cydia and iPad Baseband
it gave me all the risks. But I went on and Jailbroke it.

Now Im so angry :mad: at myself because of these:

No Wifi (Gray)
No IMEI
No Bluetooth
Modem Firmware Blank

and Now it's stuck in DFU Mode.

I've tried to restore it with Itunes but it gives me error -1, 37, 1600 & 1601
and Now I can't restore it to its original firmware to start the jailbreak from scratch.

PLEASE HELLLLPPP!!!!

BTW: I live in Panama so thats why I wanted to Unlock it in the first place.
 
Looks like you fried all wireless radios on the logic board by installing the iPad baseband on an incompatible 3GS model.
You messed up big by not checking the serial to find out when it was manufactured to see if you can install the iPad baseband or not. Or at least research and ask before you do it cause what you did cannot be reversed.
 
So I guess it can't be fixed :( or maybe there is a small possibility of me having a normal Jailbroken and unlocked iPhone.
 
There isn't any possibility sorry but these are the reasons you should always ask when your not sure about base bands for your serial number THERE IS NO REVERSING WHAT YOUVE DONE .... Sorry bro

If you can replace the logic board then pm me and I'll ship you a 3g's motherboard on iOS 5 still, I have no use for it so if you would like it just lmk your shipping info and I'll pack it up for you,

Best I can do for you

The only way to fix it is if you replace the logic board inside the phone.
It cannot be fixed with software or any hacks.
You fried it.

Actually, when flashing the iPad baseband you went beyond jailbreaking - sadly there are many others who have discovered this "option" to change the baseband in the 3GS, but have failed to read the most important part of the information i.e., the warnings.
 
SO i guess Im gonna gave to change the Logic (Mother) board on my iphone 3gs. And see what happens.

Although you are in Panama, the iPhone 3GS shouldn't be that expensive considering the age of the device. You could pick a new phone up and save yourself some trouble.
