after downgrading iphone won't boot

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I owed an iphone with OOB 1.0.2. In Oct. I activated and unlocked the phone 
to 1.1.1 with 
indepence and anysim.
2. since it seemed to be fine now, I tried to update to 1.1.2. All the steps 
worked fine, unless 
anysim.
3. after reebooting I downgraded phone an instructed in the manual. I passed al 
the steps and 
after downgrading to 1.0.2 with iTunes I quit iTunes when yellow trainangle 
appeared on iPhone 
screen. The I started Independence again with no success

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I actually expected a jailbreaked and activated iPhone to process the upgrade 
to 1.1.2 again.
But now my iPhone restarts every 8 seconds. Wether iTunes nor Independence have 
time this way 
to recognize the iPhone

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
OS 10.4.11

Please provide any additional information below.
Any Ideas how I can regain control over my iPhone?

It sounds like you are getting the endless reboot.  I've had this a couple of 
times.

If you hold down both the power and home buttons for 10 seconds, then let go of 
power
and keep holding home for another 10 seconds, then connect to iTunes, it should
bounce you into a forced restore.  In iTunes, hold down option and press 
restore and
load 1.0.2.  Then go into iNdependence and try again.

The most important thing is to use iNdependence 1.3.1 to load the latest 
Anysim, and
use it here.  Then do the pre-upgrade and go back to iTunes to update to 1.1.2. 
 Best
to say it's a new phone rather than an existing restore at this stage.

When you reactivate in Independence, DO NOT run Anysim, it will kill the phone 
big
time.  It should still be active from 1.0.2.  This is why you need the latest 
version.

Finally, if you are not in one of the countries the iPhone has already released 
in,
you will need to find a copy of INSTALLER and use iWorld to fix a dialer issue.

Anyway, there is hope.  I am happily using my iPhone in Australia on 1.1.2.  
Works
great and is worth the effort!

Good luck,

Jim

Hi Jim

Thanx for your help!
Before I got your help, I found some help on the net and got the idea of 
holding down the home-button after 
reboot. That issue is closed.

What seems strange is, that after i downgraded to 1.0.2, actiated, jailbreaked, 
uploaded ssh etc., then updatet 
to 1.1.2 with iTunes, took control with iNdependence again and actiated, 
jailbreaked, uploaded ssh etc. and 
this time installed and ran anysim (in Flight-Mode), the phone seemed to work.

BUT!!!

Calling from phonebook worked fine, but can't hang up a call.
Dialling causes iPhone imediately to go back to Home
and other strange things.

Has that something to do with the reason, that I already unloked and activated 
the iPhone in earlier times?

You mention to use the latest anySIM. Independence installes automatically the 
anySIM. I'm using version 
1.3.1 of independence.

So what I'm I doing wrong? Can I recapitulate my steps?

1. Connect iPhone to Mac, force it into a restore! Downgrade to FW 1.0.2, quit 
iTunes, take controll with 
iNdependence, activate (and jailbreak), install SSH, then finally preupgrade FW

2. in iTunes Upgrade to FW 1.1.2 (no Activation via iTunes).

3. Turn back to iNdependence and proceed the upper steps without preupgrade FW

3. Installing anySIM and run that in Airplane Mode

What's wrong?

Jim!

One more thing  ;-)

What do you meen by: 

"it will kill the phone big time" Do I have to install and run anySIM while on 
FW 1.0.2?
