iPhone stuck, can't upgrade to final 3.0 release.

[HyperSnake]

I'm an Apple iPhone Developer and my iPhone was running iPhone OS 3.0 BETA 5(couldn't be bothered to upgrade to GM seed). Now yesterday when I tried to upgrade to the newly released final version through iTunes, it said I was already running the latest version of the OS (which I'm not, Im running a beta). I also tried to restore my phone but it said: "There was a problem downloading the iPhone software for the iPhone (name of my iphone). The requested source was not found." Now today, my iPhone is locked. I have tried to do all the same as well as the steps on this site:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923 (except for the iphone reinstall and hcange of USB connection steps). Now I really dont know what to do. Can anybody help me? Basically all I need is the final 3.0 firmware to be downloaded to my computer.

This is sorta urgent so I'd appreciate fast answers

Yours,
BEN.

Have you tried putting your iPhone in DFU mode?

DFU is pretty much the last resort. If that doesn't work, then I don't know what will.

I had exactly the same problem this morning and this seems to work. The final 3.0 OS is now downloading through iTunes.
