You are now ready to downgrade your device. Simply put the iPhone into DFU mode and in iTunes Shift+Click the Restore button to select the firmware you would like to downgrade to. If you get error message 1011 or 1013 just ignore it. If you get error message 1015 repeat the entire restore then jailbreak after it fails the second time.

I have tried this but when I shift click in “restore” it opens for me to browse for de ipsw file on my system!
I don’t get an option of the desired version (in my case 3.1.3)
I have an iphone 3gs running ios4 and have selected the “make my live easier” on cydia, but following this steps over and over didn’t solve….
