It’s been a few months, maybe even a year since I last tried to find a solution. Finally, I have. I found a video on Youtube that explains how to fix the problem I am having.

It’s like taking a trip in a time machine. Google apps are native, no front-facing camera, no video capture, no Siri. It’s using iOS 4.2.1. I’m not sure what kind of apps will run in it.
