iPhone 4 Bricked


problem:
iphone 4 stuck in restore mode

iphone specs before being bricked:
-iphone 4
-jailbroken , working well
-ios version 4.2.1 (if recall correctly)

how bricked it:
wanted update ios 5, followed following steps (please note missed step 2)
-downloaded firmware 5.0.0
-missed step==>upgrade via itunes downloaded firmware
-launch redsn0w
-select select ipsw
-select downloaded firmware
-jailbreak downloaded firmware selected

seems redsn0w trying jailbreak iphone thinking on version 5.0 while on version 4.2.1 bricked phone.

tried out of mess (after alot of googling , lot of failed attempts, closest procedure thought should work)
-run redsn0w , select custom ipsw
-choose downloaded firware (i tried firmware 5.0.1), create new firmware starting no_bb_
-enter phone pwned dfu using redsn0w
-launch itunes , shift restore newly created firmware (the attached results no_bb_ file created 5.0.1 firmware)
-the restoring failed, , log in following link http://pastebin.ca/2106325
