Here's the deal:

I have an iPhone 3G stuck in recovery boot. I think that it has the iPad baseband for unlock because iTunes was giving me the 1015 error when I tried to restore it.

Now, after trying to kicking it out of recovery with tinyumbrella, iTunes doesn't recognizes the phone in recovery and it wont go to DFU mode no matter how hard i try.

Try to put it in dfu with redsnow and it doesn't work either and now, not even tinyumbrella sees it.

Any ideas on how to proceed?
 
Error 1015
This error is common when downgrading iPhones and 3G iPads. The problem occurs when the device's baseband has a higher version number than the baseband in the firmware you restored to. Just set auto-boot true in iRecovery or use iREB/TinyUmbrella/RecBoot.1 In case this is not working use Pwnage Tool to create a custom firmware WITHOUT the iPad baseband, put your device in pwned DFU Mode and restore via iTunes.
