Have a 16gb Ipod Touch 1G. Nothing displays on screen. When connected to PC, Itunes says it must be restored. Attempt restore and receive 1601 error. Tried Ziphone 2.6b to fix Nvram Ziphone reports that Ipod is in DFU mode and cannot proceed with fix and says to restore with Itunes. Can't restore. Tried Tinyumbrella, Ireb, winpw. Since its recognized by Itunes, I'm hoping it can be fixed. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
When I'm Good, I'm Very Good
That's a toughie sorry can't help ya
Yeah, trying to fix. Thanks
Try entering DFU mode , and jailbreak using greenpois0n , and maybe your ipod touch can open
Tried greenpoison, says it won't go into DFU mode, even though other programs say its in DFU mode
Oh yeah, error 1601. I got that error when I was at 2.0 trying to restore back to 1.1.5.
I have tried all stock firmware thru 3.13 and custom ones, still get error 1601
Try downgrading iTunes to 9.2

Also might wanna try another computer. Have you tried a standard "upgrade" rather than shift+restoring?
I dont know,man. still think your downgrading. my ipod is exactly the same as yours.
Let me check tonight.

WOW!! I didnt mean all that, just wanted the file name. Anyway, Think i just found your problem. Just to make sure, what firmware were you on and how did it brick?
I don't know the current firmware on the unit. When Itunes opens and says to restore it recognizes that it is an Ipod, but cannot identify the serial number or firmware version. That information must be corrupt on the unit. I'll try anything you can think of. Thanks for your time.

It's best to find out. Try f0recast from ih8sn0w.com
Thanks,but Forecast didn't work. I think the file that has that info is corrupt.
OK. lets get started. Go back to the "iPod software updates" folder,open it, then i want you to delete "iPod1,1.1.5restore" file. Next, go back to your iPod. Press and hold the home button while connecting it to your pc. iTunes should open. THEN CLICK RESTORE. Agree to terms and conditions. If im correct it will download ios 3.1. wait for it to finish. Then see if it restores. Hope this works!

Sorry th3AmazingAth3ist, I have to disagree. Simply connect your ipod to your computer then click
ok, I deleted the file and Itunes downloaded the same file 1.5. I also tried 3.12 and 3.1.3, all have same problem Error 1601. Tried different USB port and different computer. Same error. Anyway to fix the unit's internal memory
This is a tough one try placing it in dfu mode then click restore. If you already did that,
