My name is Andy and I started buying broken iphones on Craigslist to sell them on eBay back in mid June.
Started off mostly buying ones with cracked screens and bad LCD's and flipping them on eBay for a quick profit. More recently, I started fiddling with ones that are stuck in recovery mode or have the white screen of death to get them working again and selling them on eBay to make a profit.
To date I have bought over 80 phones, 3/4 or more of that total being iphones.
I found the firum today as I am searching for a way to restore a 3GS that has the white screen of death and will not restore.
Trying to upgrade thru Itunes gives me a 1015 error. Connecting to tiny umbrella will not give me the firmware version to try to downgrade. The phone will not go into DFU mode and stays in recovery mode with a white screen. All of the tools I i know of for fixing recovery errors require the phone to be in DFU mode.
Any ideas on how to proceed?
Thanks in advance,
Andy
