No, do not ever do that on a JB iphone.
It will put your iphone in a boot loop and only way to get it out is to restore with itunes.
What are you trying to accomplish, on what kind of iphone model, firmware and baseband?

LOL.. damm too late.. its on the bootloop..

Its running off 4.2.1
Ipad baseband
Iphone 3g

I just didnt want to go through the trouble to unlock it again

Only way to restore now is to custom 4.2.1 ipsw created with pwnage tool or snowbreeze.

Yes, your ipad bb is still there.
You just gotta restore using a custom ipsw and open cydia and install ultrasnow again.

bleh alright:l

thanks man.. to get the custom ipsw i just download 4.2.1 and then run it though snowbreeze right

 

[Applejuiced]

Yes, go thru all that with snowbreeze and it will walk you thru the rest.

ugh ****...
since my iphone was on like boot loop, i got my custom firmware from pwnagetool.. ran DFU and it didnt install!

It opened up itunes and then i restored it there.. but then it gave me the white screen

You can't restore with iTunes any more.
Find a tutorial and do the pwnage tool again.
You have to hold down option and click restore in iTunes and the select the custom Ipsw you made with pwnage.

This is why it's important to wait for the answer to your question instead of asking a question and proceeding without regard to the answer.

Like AJ said, I think a pwned DFU restore to custom firmware would do it.

Good luck with your phone, there are many members here like AJ and myself who are here to help!

I think i did that, but i'll try it again... i went through pwnagetool to its DFU mode and itunes poped out and I pressed ctrl or alt click restore and selected the custom firmware, and the error popped up.. or i didnt do it right...
then i used redsn0w and clicked enter DFU mode, and it did and same message

Thanks dude!!


Update..

So.. I did as told, and when i was in the middle of restoring.. error code 1015 came up, but i looked at the phone.. steve jobs is there speaking russian (recovery mode?)

 

[misterine]

:l now i get this

and.. when i go into DFU and restore again.. the logo and the loading bar is there but.. once it hits like 75% i get error code 1015 :l.. this sucks
If i use apple's firmware that wouldn't help right?
