(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hey, I am trying to downgrade my iTouch 2G from firmware 4.0 to 3.1.2. I am aware that apple have blocked this, I added

    74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com

74.208.10.249 www.gs.apple.com

To my hosts file and made it Read-Only, I then restarted my iTunes, booted my iPod in DFU mode and then tried the shift+click restore to 3.1.2 and I am getting this error:

You must login or register to view this content.

Does anyone know a solution for this?

I'm pretty sure you can fix this by clean restoring to 4.0 then downgrading OR updating to the very newest then downgrading

+rep if i helped pl0x

Trying this out now.



If the above dosen't work then I'll try this after :carling:

There is no way to downgrade your firmware unless you have the SHSH's on file, if not, then I'm afraid that your too late to downgrade. Although, I have heard of a apossible method of downgrading from 4.0/1 without having the SHSH's on file.

You can't downgrade without a shsh blob at this point. I've heard some older bootroms can downgrade to older firmwares like 3.1.2 but besides that no.

I got the same errors with 3.1.3.

I even had the shsh files.

Not sure why your downgrading but if it is to jailbreak ps3, don't bother 2g don't work

If it is to jailbreak the ipod itself. You don't have to. Spirit works and I think redsn0w does to.

I had the same problem your probably using the wrong firmware look here.... You must login or register to view this content.
try different firmware types (1G, 2G, 3G) Idk hope i helped.
