restored but at the end of the process I got the infamous 1011 error. tried to restore again but I got the error 1604.

stuck in error 1604

so... we change 1011 number for 1604

Can anyone confirm this?
Unfortunately I'm not even able to neuter my phone since it's actually no imei, bluetooth, wifi, modem firmware, etc.

To fix the wifi, i used dev team's pwnage tool and neutered it and fakeblanked it. Also updated to the 4.6BL ( this is a 1.0.2 iphone). Then, I used the wifi fix tool that's on the dev team wiki and installed that (I know it's a pain since there is no "wifi" to transport the files over, but search around, there's a method using a package someone made specifically for this using iliberty/ilibertyx) and viola, wifi/bluetooth is fixed.

Bad IMEI still. just unblanked/neutered, restored to default firmware, still bad.

BTW: IF YOU DO FIX YOUR WIFI AND CAN CONNECT (but no IP from DHCP) do a RESET ALL SETTINGS on your iphone. It fixed it!

So, I have a, for all intents and purposes, working iphone (just bad locked down imei). Going to try ziphone to "change" my imei to the correct one.........

UPDATE: After doing the above and then running ziphone, I successfully changed my IMEI, my phone is now fully "unbricked" with matching IMEI !

So, here are the steps:
1) used dev team, pwn the phone, neutered and fakeblanked it (4.6BL).
2) used iLiberty and installed dev team wifi fix (found on their wiki). Rebooted, wifi & bluetooth worked! No IP, reset all settings on iphone in prefs., all fixed!
3) used dev team's bootneuter tool to unblank, unneuter and downgrade baseband back to 3.9
4) entered recovery mode, restored to Apple's 1.1.4 firmware
5) used ziphone, ran jailbreak/activate/unlock, everything working but bad IMEI still
6) used ziphone and in advanced tab selected "unlock" and selected "change iphone imei". Entered correct IMEI from back of phone.
7) success! imei correct, bluetooth working, wifi working. phone unlocked.

great, now i have 2 iphones! I guess it can be......my backup phone?

Hello everybody...

No, reflashing methods failed... I think we need further support.
I have been a lot of hours in front of my computer trying to fix this
damn 1011 error, but tries have been not successful.

I encourage the known hackers to help us with this, let's say that
a custom pwnage tool would help us.

I'm also afraid to say that this problem got a lot of variants.

A friend started to have the 1011 error when he connected his iPhone
to an iPod car charger, it sounds hardware troubles for me.
Mine, I caused the 1011 error on purpose closing BootNeuter while flashing BL.

Where do we stand?

We have created and researched various solutions for the 1011 error, but this
solution so far helped a little bit of iPhones.
I will not abandon this, as I got 2 iPhones with this error, but we need more help.

What to expect?

Luckily, there is something in 2.0 *latest that is going to help us.
:hack: See you later.

my friend got it after some water spilt on his iphone.
Any hope for him?

I tried the same method as izzard said but still unable to repair my phone...all of us really need a solution that works

i already have 7 phones.. so letss work on it guys..

Here's how to fix ERROR 1600, 1603, 1604 etc.

For those with error 160X it is because there's a conflict between the iTunes' versions. now you can either change to another usb port or try in another computer with a previous version of itunes like 7.5 or 7.6 if you already tried with another computer with 7.5 and it did not work you should try with 7.6 or vice versa.

if you get error 20 it is because you are not putting the phone in DFU mode. just try again and put the phone manually into dfu mode. 10 sec home+sleep after it turned off release sleep button and still holding home for other 10 sec. the iphone screen should be black.

Good Luck, if you need help you can send me a pm.

I used this method and I now have wifi and bluetooth working but I still have No service. I am now on 1.1.2
What can I do?

do you see a correct IMEI ?? Does it say Invalid SIM ?
