3GS: No Baseband installed - not possible to install a new one

[dk88]

Hello.


My friend bought this iPhone used from a Flea Market, so I have no information whatsoever how it was brought in this condition.


f0recast and Redsn0w tell me ECID, Serial and Model, but don't show me IMEI, Baseband and Bootloader. In the Settings WiFi & Bluetooth are grey.



When in "normal" mode, it reboots every 3-4 minutes, I used two other batteries - no improvement.


I tried flashing iPad Baseband in iOS 4.1. and 6.1.2. I also tried downgrading from iPad Baseband from both versions, but nothing changes... I tried this with Redsn0w 0.9.15b3 and 0.9.14b2.

The logic board chip says 36MY1EE, so in theory I should be able to flash it...

Any ideas appreciated. Thanks!

There is the possibility of a hardware fault in the phone, which might explain how it ended up in a flea market.
