Flashing any iphone 3gs manufactured after week 35 of 2011 with the ipad baseband (aka 6.15) will result in frying your radio.

unless you get your baseband chip replaced (Thats possible) but this i didn't know about.



I am part of a group called GFC in the Dev team blog comprised of the highest ranking members. We do a lot of testing. Our results were confirmed by MuscleNerd

I can confirm this. DO NOT flash ipad baseband on devices that were built in week 35 or later (if your serial # starts with xx135).
Thank you Flaccer for signaling this to us!

If the serial number is XX931XXX that means it was produced in 2009 in week 31. Thus, it’s safe to flash it with the iPad baseband. If you’re already encounted with the errors above, consider having your logic board fixed
They replaced one of the components inside! As it turns out any 3GS produced after week 28 of year 2011 (sometime in July) is made with Toshiba baseband chip, as opposed to Infineon baseband chip.
If you attempt to flash it using iPad baseband 6.15.00 there is a risk of bricking your phone! Take this as a warning!

The typical symptoms of a corrupted baseband chip are:

No WiFi
No ECID
No IMEI
No Bluetooth

Please take note of serial number of up to XXX109XXX may NOT be compatible with the iPad baseband. See example below:

XX109XX = 1 is the year of 2011 and 09 is week 9 of 1 year

Yes all methods are safe to jailbreak... Upgrading your baseband is what could corrupt your iphone

Don't have 3GS, and radio isn't important for me, I can afford losing it.
By the way - can you give a link to any trusted resource for this information, there are always posts about such information.
