Hi everyone, i have a problem with my iphone. I got iphone 3gs (yeah i know that this is old phone) with 4.3.2 iOS. I need to upgrade it to ios 5.1.1 or 6.1.2 but i don't know how. When I plug my iphone to itunes it says " do you want to upgrade to iOS 6.1.3". But i don't need that because i can't jailbreak it.. Could you help me please ?
Sorry for my bad english.

Is your phone currently jailbroken? If so, check the SHSH's you have available on cydia.

(Is your phone an old bootrom 3GS? If so, it's untethered JB for life...)
 
Yes, my iphone is jailbroken, and it's new bootrom

Open cydia and click TSS center on the front page. At the very top, what SHSH blobs does it say cydia has for your device?

If there isn't any TSS center option, wait for cydia to finishing downloading packages and reloading

Btw, the iPhone 3GS can be tether jailbroken on 6.1.3

I also want untethered jailbreak.

Just out of curiosity, why didn't you update to iOS 5? 4.3.2 to 6.1.3 is a huge jump, so why did you skip iOS 5? 4.3.2 means it's been 2 years since you updated.
 
Where could I download ios 5.1.1? My friend said that you can download ios, open itunes and click shift button. Then you have to click on ios file.
 
So, I thought that i will upgrade to 6.1.2. But i've read that it's only can be unlocked using ultrasn0w if your baseband is 05.11.07, 05.12.01, 05.13.04, 04.26.08, 06.15.00. mine is 05.16.02 . So how to change it ? Thanks.

If your phone was manufactured after the 27th week of 2011, you cannot downgrade it. There is a tutorial on iClarified.com to flash the iPad baseband, then downgrade the baseband. USe the older version of Redsn0w specified in the tutorial.

And "your friend" is incorrect, you cannot update to any iOS5 firmware without saved SHSH.
