Once again, you can always save your SHSH blobs with TinyUmbrella before you update your firmware. This allows you to revert to any firmware you have the SHSH blobs for.

Could you please write a few steps on how to do so? Please and thank you

I plan on making a guide about this tomorrow. I'll make sure to alert you.

Okay thanks.

Also, do I need to restore before jailbreaking again? I jailbroke with redsnow. Without restoring, can I go to jailbreakme.com and jailbreak again?

You need to Restore & Upgrade, your iPhone will then have nothing on it. Then you go to Jailbreakme.com and Jailbreak, then Sync your iPhone with iTunes to get all your stuff back.

Okay after restoring, it suddenly asks me to Enter my pin code and reconnect my USB when im done. After I did that, it just shows a picture of a usb cable and the itunes symbol on my phone and nothing but the words iPhone on my iTunes screen. Im Currently not connected to the internet. Do i need to be connected to the internet?

Urgent please.

It didn't restore properly. Connect it to iTunes and restore using an official Apple .ipsw.

All the problems are solved. I've upgraded it to 4.0.1 and jailbroke it. Thanks for all your help

Perfect timing. 4.0.2 just come out and apparently it breaks your jailbreak. So don't upgrade!

It won't break your jailbreak. It patches the method used to jailbreak.

However, don't upgrade because it WILL affect your ability to install packages via Cydia.
