My friend has asked me to jailbreak and unlock his new iPhone 3GS running 3.1.3 firmware. I tried the so called 'sn0wbreeze' but when I go to restore it back in iTunes it just comes back needing an AT&T sim card and I can't get into the phone. When I try to downgrade the phone to 3.1.2 in order to use redsn0w to jailbreak I get an error message and the phone never downgrades. If anyone has any of the same issues and got them resolved or has resolutions for me I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.
Got a tip for us?

You cannot JB or unlock a 3GS with 3.1.3
Before you tried and downloaded all the tools that dont work you should have searched a little.

Nope.
Snowbreeze will only work on an already JB iphone thats on 3.1.2 and update it to a JB 3.1.3 firmware.
No unlock available. The modem firmware gets updated when upgrading to 3.1.3. Modem firmware can not downgraded.
You will not be able to downgrade it either.
Let me say it one more time.
You cannot jailbreak or unlock a 3.1.3 3GS at the moment.
