I just had the same problem and remedied it by quitting Redsn0w after creating the custom file, but before launching iTunes to restore.
 
If that doesnt work, edit your hosts file to remove the apple.com line in there.

Here are instructions on how: http://decoding.wordpress.com/2009/04/06/how-to-edit-the-hosts-file-in-mac-os-x-leopard/

I just added a # to the start of the line, flushed the cache, and it fixed it.

Good luck

I would thank this post umpteen times!! Happily upgrading to iOS5.0.1 using Pwangetool!!

I removed the gs.apple line that pointed to Saurik server and while I was at it placed a # in front of the 127.0.0.1 iphonesubmissions.apple.com

Can someone please elaborate on this "edit host file" process. Sitting here frustrated, I don't understand what that above website is telling me to change. Well I get I have to change something, I just don't understand "how" to make that change.

Can someone please explain??

If you are using Windows the host file is here:

C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\ or %systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\
 
Go to Finder
Hit the "Shift + Command + G" keys
Type "/private/etc/" into the search window
Press enter
Go to the file named "hosts"
Open it in TextEdit.app

Edit: or is it just /etc/ ?
 
i still can't get past the error 1600 on my mac and iphone4. what can i do please!?!?!

If your using redsn0w why are you building a IPSW on your own? RedsnOw on mac does it automatically for you. I used 0.9.10b1 this morning and it worked fine. The only issue I had was prior to the JB was that when I saved my sshblobs in TinyUmbrella I forgot to unccheck "set hosts to cydia on exit" and I did get an error only when upgrading to iOS 5.0.1 stock from apple. Once if fixed that I was good to go. SO I'm just confused on your workflow using redsn0w on mac since it basically automatic.

Now if your using windows I understand the whole build your IPSW thing.
