Bricked iPhone with 3.0

[Kyeris]

So now I've tried to restore 3.0 with my MacBook, Windows 7 x64 on my MacBook, Windows 7 x64 on my PC, and Windows XP Pro on another PC.

Error 1013.

Yeah no kidding. I was trying to downgrade to 2.2.1 and jailbreak so I can get access and then restore to 3.0 and hoped that work, but I can't even get to 2.2.1, after it unpackages the .ipsw I get a 1600 error.

Edit: Tried it on my MacBook, Windows 7 x64 on my MacBook, Windows 7 x64 on my PC, and now Windows XP on another PC, seems like I'm getting some progress, I'll update when it's finished.

Any progress?
I just tried it on another computer running vista, but the same unknown error code of 1013 again

Nothing. Called Apple and they said I was SOL, bring it into a store. Unfortunately they have no appointments until Saturday, which sucks because I'm most likely heading out on a vacation tomorrow.

That sucks!!
I was thinking about taking mine to a store here... but because i jailbroke my phone, i doubt they will do anything!

I got mine replaced about a week ago due to a crack, luckily I haven't jailbroken it yet. I wish there was some way around it... too bad we're the only two in this thread 😛

Haha, oh dear!
Yeah, it's driving me crazy! The only soloution i have come around to finding is waiting for the dev-team to release the jailbreaking software to fix the baseband problem.
All this is so confusing... i have no idea what's going on anymore lol

Ok, so i have got mine to work and it's performing a system restore as we speak.

The only way i managed to get it working was to jail break the 3.0 software using redsn0w.
when open, the program is pretty straight forward and self explanitory.

You can download it here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=842KJ02X
(You'll also need the 3.0 restore.IPSW file too) Download that here too if needed: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YSPOTNN6

After completing the jailbreaking you will need to open iTunes and restore from your back up.

Hope this helps you should you decide to use this option 😱)
