      In your guides, you often use the word “than” instead of “then”.

      “Then” is time related, something happens, *then* something else happens.

      “Than” is for comparing two things. Something is faster *than* something else.

      I hope this helps you make your very good and helpful website even better.

      Aaditya Bakshi ,

      Can you put your iPhone in DFU mode? If can, you can restore it to 1.1.3/1.1.4, then use ZiPhone to retry
