What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Restore iPhone using iTunes 7.4.2
2. Tried to activate using Independence 1.2.5 (I've activated with an
earlier version o INdependence before)
3. INdependence crashed leaving iPhone frozen, new restore... after that
edless boot.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

and again...

Hey there.  I had the exact same thing happen to me and thought I killed the 
phone.  After a lot of research, I 
discovered the trick to fix it.

Hold the power and home keys together for 10 seconds, after it restarts 
continue holding the home key but 
release the power key.  Continue for about another 10 seconds and quickly put 
it in the dock.  It should come 
back to life with the yellow triangle and ask for new firmware.  Try minor 
variations if that doesn't work.

At this point, I reinstalled 1.1.1 and went through the process again, this 
time doing all the breaks and 
installations for 1.0.2 and it worked.  I'm stuck with 1.0.2 until further 
notice but it's working and I'm happy!

Hope this helps.

Jim

Thanks a lot for your help Jim...

I did exactly that yesterday... got the yellow triangle and restored (or 
almost...) via iTunes... Now the problem 
is that every time I restore, the whole process seems to work but at the very 
end, after iphone firmware 
restore, when iTunes tells you that the iPhone will reset and show up in the 
sources the following error 
occurs...

"The iPhone "iPhine" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (6)."

Now the iPhone is always at this yellow triangle state... can do nothing...

The version is 1.0.2, so I'm trying to restore it with 1.0.2... Do you think 
that if I restore with 1.1.1 it might 
work? Or will I blew it once for all??

Thanks again, Fred.

upgrading to 1.1.1 will fix your problem.  the error 6 is ussually related to a 
"problem" in verifying the firmware 
files, so there still may be some leftover on the iphone that does not match 
the verification proccess.  If you have 
a 1.0.2 and UPDATE to 1.1.1, you will get a new baseband and Firmware.  It is 
very likely you get fully fixed and 
operational
