Error 1600[edit source]
- Custom firmware can't be restored on a device with DFU Mode. The software of the device isn't patched. Using a jailbreak tool, enter a pwned DFU Mode. During that process the software gets patched and the custom firmware should run without any problems.
- APTicket problems if you try to restore to iOS 5.x in the DFU Mode.
- If truly stuck (even with an regular iTunes Restore), edit the hosts file and comment out the "guzzoni.apple.com" line
- GetDeviceID: failed for iBoot (experienced on Windows 8)
