Downloaded [big thanks to DevTeam] and waiting but has anyone tested this? I am awaiting some info on another post before I try

 

[Gregoris]

[rookhoe]

[Gregoris]

when it was first released the site was so over loaded it was taken down i wouldent be surprised if it happens for windows users too

How to do if I want to preserve my baseband? I got 02.10.04
Maybe I want to unlock later when it may be possible.

You can use Tinyumbrella. Follow the steps. Shows for a Mac but it is the exact same for Windows.

Should we save our SHSH's or BLOBS, or whatever it is that I keep seeing pop up in jailbreak threads?
