How to restore iPhone to complete virgin state

[dmaderoo]

while installing some apps and trying to hack the iPhone i probably made some mistakes. the problem is that my iPhone´s multi-touch screen bottom part is not responding. i want to run a full restore to virgin state to see if it helps but im having problems whit the step: Stop commcenter by typing: launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.CommCenter.plist the thing is that i dont know where to type it. the terminal does not work for this.

I am not a programmer. But I was successful at unlocking my phone. However, I screwed it up by trying to unlock the same phone with another program called anySim and this is where the problem lies. I shouldn't have used two programs in trying to unlock the phone. Well, I figured if I screw it up, I can always restore the phone. Well, you can't because from what I learnt, the baseband needs to be reflashed in order to restore your phone to its virgin state. This is where I'm having problems.

I went to http://www.iphonegoboom.com/#aterror to get directions to restore the phone. These are my two problems.

2) Stop commcenter by typing: launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.CommCenter.plist

-> when I type this on PuTTY, the message I keep getting is something to the effect of couldn't process this.

3) type "cd /bin" without the quotes and hit enter, then type " ./bbupdater -f *.fls -e *.eep" without the quotes and hit enter

-> on this command, I get the message "can't find bbupdater." I used iBrikr to upload the bbupdater to /bin. Why am I getting this message? Am I suppose to put it somewhere else? What am I missing?

Thanks for anyone who can help.

oK, i am the poster just above this posting. I solved most of the problem. I missed a step on iphonegoboom.com. I followed it correctly this time and it work. However, when I type "launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.CommCenter.plist", I get a reply something like "can't process."

Does anyone know how I can fix this? Thanks.
