Hi Guys
I have added a new iPhone firmware direct links page that should come in handy for those looking to use the original firmware on your iPhones. The links to the firmware are all direct links to Apple so you can be sure the firmware is legit.
You can find the page under the iPhone menu at the top of the page or you can find the page in the link below.
