Anyone have experience with iPhone iOS old firmware updating? (error 1600)

Oct 1, 2012 3:17 AM

I'm trying to update my iPod touch to 5.1.1, TinyUmbrella verifies I have the correct SHSH but I keep getting the damned error! (Getting frustrating :D) The 160x errors (1600, 1601, etc).

I've been working on this for a couple DAYS now.. I've done literally everything, reinstalled iTunes, disabled all security software, changed cables, ports.. even computers. Nothing. Nada. The irony in this is, it actually started to work the first time but I cancelled heh..

Any help would be really appreciated..

Did you try this?... "In TInyUmbrella, uncheck the “Set hosts to Cydia on Exit"

@missellienc: Yeah :).. I've done pretty much everything - I ran down as many Google results as I could Which is why it's so damned confusing lol.. I appreciate the help though.. and it's definitely possible I missed something. I've been putting it in PWND DFU mode.. is that necessary for a non-modded update? I was thinking there was a small possibility that could be a problem.

I think it might have something to do with the iPod itself. I think I actually got the restore to work the first time around but cancelled half way through so I think that may have goofed something up.

Oh! 1 Question: Is it possible that TinyUmbrella may have found the 5.1.1 SHSH blobs in error (or found the wrong ones)? Would I get a 1600 if the SHSH was bad?

@drchops: I would take it out of Pwnd DFU mode. I always heard that was used for jailbreaking only. As far as the blobs, check out this Link. Good luck!

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
