Yup, iPhone decided to stop "recognizing ACTIVATION" so my iPhone has been stuck for two days and Apple and AT&T couldn't fix it. So, I came here and found the IPSW for the current iOS 6....Thanks MR once again! 
Got a tip for us?

Glad it worked for you, I've got two useless devices. Downloaded the ipsw for my iPad3 (64GB ATT) and it says the device is not eligible for the selected build when I try to update or restore. Put it in Restore mode and let iTunes do it, throws an error. Put it in DFU mode, same thing. Working on the iPT now to see if it behaves any differently. Normal (iOS running) mode was just as hopeless as the iPad, trying DFU now....
Edit: DFU worked on the iPT, will try again on the iPad.

Took me two days to figure out the problem and a solution. AT&T and Apple kept saying "it's a bad iPhone get a new one!" If you can get the correct IPSW you are 99% on the right track....
