If you're a developer or have had your iPhone added to a Dev's account you will not get the error.
Does it look like it finishes installing the firmware? If it does you could use Tinyumbrella to kick it out of recovery mode
It just gets stuck on the status bar and spews out a baseband error in xcode.
But in iTunes 10 it goes to recovery screen and gives a 1013 error.
not true I was updating last night via windows an I registered my phone on my account and kept getting this I had to use tinyumbrella to kick it out of recovery..... I think you need to be using the latest xcode on snow leopard to update.
Funny think was I updated my iPad in windows just fine but iPhone didn't like to be updated
I just got the error 1604 through iTunes. I am registered through someone else. I had all 4.0 and 4.1 betas.
So with your iphone it went to 4.2 by kicking it out of recovery with tinyumbrella?
I've been...refreshing like every 10 seconds a few people solved it just none work.
Registered dev. Tried updating one of my IP4s via iTunes 10 on OSX and got error 10. Had to download and install latest SDK and restore in Xcode then restore from backup in iTunes.
You're paying $99 and you get this...
But I'm sure you're making revenue for the apps you're developing? so the $99 pays for itself.
P.S. it's beta, you can't install it, you submit a bug report with a detailed explanation.
I am a developer and had these issues also, there are no notes stating that you have to install xcode beta first. After following some of the suggestions on developer forum and using tiny umbrella, I was able to install 4.2b. After that I was able to restore several times just fine using xcode beta. By the way the response time to a bug report is usually 48hrs and I don't want to wait that long.
Procedure I followed:
1. completely uninstall all previous versions of xcode.
2. restore iphone4 to 4.1 in itunes(fresh download not GM) (got error 10)
3. use tiny umbrella to kick out of recovery.
4. install xcode beta
5. use itunes to update to 4.2b (got error 10)
6. use tiny umbrella to kick out of recovery (iphone 4 is now at 4.2)
7. I was then able to test a few applications and restore several times using xcode beta without any issues
Not sure what the issues are, but I have had problems just restoring some of my test phones(various IOS versions), have at times had to restore on my pc, maybe it is time for a fresh install of OSX.

Not to be a d**k, but that is exactly what you are paying for. It sounds like beta software may not be right for you.
I had XCode 3.2.5 and installed it with a few minor issues, but not erroneous issues.
I got the same error, just used Tinyumbrella to kick it out of recovery and still have my intact 1.59.00 baseband.
