just so you guys know what the error is it occurs when the baseband you are installing is older than the one currently on the phone. the phone completes its OS installation first and THEN proceeds to the baseband. so quickpwn is simply forcing the phone out of recovery mode. thats all. just forces it to boot with what it has. then you see the initial springboard status loader which then makes everything better for the next boot. then just jailbreak as usual

Do you need your iBBS/ECID stuff for this? Since I'm stuck with an one-day old iphone 3gs here that wont boot any more and could not get my ECID hashed since apple stopped that service

no. you need to have had cydia add your ECID. did you have cydia do this? otherwise just DFU TO 3.1 and prayer tberes a jb soon.

Wow. Thanks for this! What prompted the 1015 for me was the fact that I upgraded iTunes to 9 and downloaded a custom firmware. I didn't properly put it into DFU mode (only recovery mode) and the upload failed. Then, I tried to restore to 3.0.1 only to get the 1015. Then, I downgraded iTunes to 8.2.1 - same thing. 1015 and recovery mode loop. This solved the problem. How did you figure this out?

I'm an apple dev, and tested a 3.1 beta. Wanted a JB back, and just stumbled across it =P

[floepie]

Great! If I may be so bold to ask a somewhat unrelated question then. Am I safe to upgrade back to iTunes 9 to upload the custom firmware? If so, and anything goes awry once again, is it possible to restore to 3.0.1 in iTunes 9, or would I have to downgrade to iTunes 8.2.1? IOW, can an iphone be restored to 3.0.1 in iTunes 9?

[bondkt]

Yes I've restored mine several times in itunes 9, it seems fine to do anything in.

And regarding YOUR restore, did you have cydia hash and store your ECID?

If so then just edit the host file (if you haven't already) and restore to 3.0 or 3.0.1 (your version you can restore to varies)

[floepie]

Sorry, not sure I follow. I never upgraded to 3.1's baseband, so there was never an issue as to whether I would be able to fully restore back to 3.0.1. It was simply a matter of figuring out how to get out of all the 1015 errors. According to Apple, a 1015 error results from attempting to downgrade, which is a little puzzling to me, as the custom firmware upload never succeeded, and because it's "custom", it never upgraded the baseband. UNLESS the 1015 applies not only to the baseband, but also, the OS.

[bondkt]

1015 is a baseband error yup.

And if you had your ECID hashed by Cydia, yes, will be able to downgrade to either 3.0 or 3.0.1 (again it's whichever was hashed).

Itunes 9 can do anything itunes 8.2.1 can, just leave it on, it should cause you any trouble =P
