Restoring firmware to iPhone 4

Restoring firmware to iPhone 4

Posted May 13, 2013 at 11:06pm by regalman · 3051 views
I have an iPhone that was in an otterbox and run over by a car. After putting on a front screen, everything on the phone worked normally, except there was no IMIE or firmware. I restored it in iTunes and now it can't be activated thru Wifi or iTunes. (I have a SIM card in it). Tiny Umbrella shows an IMEI and serial number now, but no firmware. I realize the logic board could be damaged, but is there a way to try and restore the firmware? Thanks in Advance for any suggestions.

Wondering where you can get all the iPhone firmware files from? Here’s the direct download links for all of the iPhone IPSW firmware files from version 3.0.0 on up through 4.1.0 for iPhone 2G, iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, and iPhone 4, 4S, or 5. Note that we are not hosting the files, they are direct links to Apple’s web servers.

The firmware files can be quite large (600MB in some cases) so don’t be surprised if it takes a while to download. It’s easiest to just right-click on the file you want and save it directly, some users experience trouble with Safari when directly clicking the this link : answer.techbuddiesonline.com/thread.php?elem_id=604
