iTunes Restore Errors 3194, 1600, 1015, 1013, etc.: iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch

[thazsar]

I assume this has been created a thousand times before but here goes another one!!!

This is for those of you that are getting Errors while trying to Restore your iDevice.

Most common Errors include: 3194, 1600, 1015, 1013

If you get a 1013 or 1015, you might be closer to reenabling your iDevice than you think!

Use TinyUmbrella or RecBoot to 'EXIT RECOVERY' (or exit 'Recovery Mode' as it's called).

-TinyUmbrella: http://thefirmwareumbrella.blogspot.com/
-RecBoot:

For all other Errors, follow these instructions:

-First, download TinyUmbrella for your Computer

-Second, follow the appropriate link below to learn how to Edit HOSTS File:

--Mac -
---Easy Method: http://www.mactricksandtips.com/2009...osts-file.html---Advanced Method: http://support.ecenica.com/domain-na...e-mac-windows/
-Third, download the firmware you need from:

***If your downloaded Firmware/IPSW is in .zip format, change the .zip extension to .ipsw***

-Open TinyUmbrella

-Save your SHSH files

-Go to the ADVANCED tab

-UNCHECK the Cydia/Hosts box

-EDIT your Hosts file by:
--Removing the '74.208.105.171 gs.apple.com' string. (Remember: Vista or Win 7 users need to open the HOSTS file as an Administrator)

-SAVE-SAVE-SAVE the edited file! BTW, you need to Save! ;-)

-REBOOT your computer

-CHECK the Hosts file again to verify it was saved correctly
-----------------------------------

-Plug in your iPhone

-Open TinyUmbrella again

-START TSS Server

-***For Custom Firmwares ONLY: Enter PwnDFU Mode with sn0wbreeze or PwnageTool***

-Open iTunes

-Shift (Windows) or Option (Mac) and Click RESTORE

-Locate your Firmware/IPSW

-Restore your phone

-If you get a 1013 or 1015 Error, select 'EXIT RECOVERY' in TinyUmbrella

You should be Restored!!!

m with iphone 3gs fw 4.0.2 3 days back tried to upgrade to 4.3.2

first i make custom firmware with snowbreeze 2.6 and get my fone in dfu mode and i saw snowbreeze exploiting ireb to my fone....then i started tinyumbrella tss server and open itunes to shift+restore in itune , after extracting and verifying itunes give error 1600 and says my fone is in recovery mode ..i tried 4-5 times but can't go with it....iphone screen is black and itune is detecting it.....still with error 1600
some one help me out what the hell with it.....
power 10 sec
power + home 10sec
release power but home 20 sec dfu mode i used.....

my phone is still showing black screen and whenever i plug in itunes detect it...that's my iphone is in DFU mode....

i need 2 solutions...
get me out of dfu mode or restore to 4.3.3

[Stray]

what error's are you getting when trying to restore to 4.3.3? if you have tinyumbrella try turning off set hosts to cydia in the advanced tab and then restoring to 4.3.3

[Naushad123]

it's hitting me with 1600 always ....yes i uncheck it also...i do see snowbreeze progress bar on iphone but in the end the result end up with 1600 error......

P.S snowbreeze update to 2.7
ireb 4
tinny umbrella 4.33

[A3gOwner]

1600 is usually a dfu error.

[Stray]

are you making sure to put it into pwned dfu mode?

[Naushad123]

when i finished making up snowbreeze custom fw i hit start n it says ur device is now ipwn dfu mode...so i then start tiny tss server and try to restore...with itune.....

[Stray]

do not hit start tss server and then try restoring

[Naushad123]

u mean without using tinyumbreela with custom fw....i tried it....nothing change with error.....

CWindows\System32\drivers\etc there is hosts.umbrella...and some files are in CProgram Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
SOULD I REMOVE THEM TOO>>>

[Stray]

why are you using a custom firmware?

[Naushad123]

To preserve baseband....i don't know if i do direct what will be the result with my unlock status.....i m not on carrier sim

[Stray]

what is your baseband?

[Naushad123]

5.13.4

[Naushad123]

restore to original 4.3.3 then using iredsnow install ipad baseband n matter solved....any ways...thanks dude...

[Simon]

It would have been better to preserve your baseband with a custom firmware instead of using the ipad baseband. You could have save your gps.

[Naushad123]

if u read my thread i had asked number of questions related to my problem and there'was no solution....rather than restore to original...i wont mind it if u help me out and than say that i should not restore to original ....have a healthy life...
