Of course you can restore it. But, do you have the SHSH saved for the iOS you're on?

Download TinyUmbrella from here: http://thefirmwareumbrella.blogspot.com/

The iPhone 4 IPSW from here: http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=750

Once TinyUmbrella is open hit "Enter Recovery"

Run TSS Server (iTunes will close, reopen it)

Shift+Restore (PC) or Option+Restore (Mac) for your iPhone 4 IPSW

Set up iPhone as new

Jailbreak and unlock

finally got around to doing this but ran into a problem. I saved the i4 IPSW file to my desktop, but when i hit (shift+restore) and try to open the file, it says "no items match my searh." any ideas on what im doing wrong here?
