I needed to clean out my iPhone 3g and give it to my sister because shes going overseas. I did not want to go through the hassle of unlocking, and jailbraking it, so I just went into Settings>General>Reset all settings, this resulted in a boot loop. So i followed this guide http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=13000 that Applejuiced provided me with I made my custom IPSW with ipsw 4.2.1, and ipad ipsw, went into DFU mode with pwnage tool Apple logo with loading bar pops up, then around 75% it just zooms to the end and gives me a 1050 error.. im like ****.. turn the phone off.. turned it back on.. it instantly boots to recovery mode (steve jobs speaking russian) what doo it do?" ignore old thread update i used blackrain, no luck same result error 1015
Are you on a Mac? If so, open up Terminal, type 'sudo nano /etc/hosts' without the apostrophes, hit enter then type your password. Once in the hosts file, scroll down to gs.apple.com 74.xxx and put a # sign in front of the gs.apple.com. Hit Control+O, press enter then hit Control+X. Try to restore the phone again.
