Never jailbroken my phone, never wanted to. Just wanted to put some songs onto my iPhone 4 and it said some of the contents cannot be read and I needed to restore. So I clicked restore and it started to download the 5.1.1 update. Once this was done the error message:
"The iPhone iPhone' Could not be Restored Because Firmware is not Compatible" appeared.
So, I remembered I had been reminded on my phone that the 5.1.1 update was available through Settings on my phone, so I updated it that way. Successful update. I plug my phone back in and the contents still cannot be read, so I go to restore the phone again. Once again, "The iPhone iPhone' Could not be Restored Because Firmware is not Compatible."

However, I am starting to develop an app for iOS, and want to use my iPhone to test, so I need to update the iOS to the latest version (5.1) When they unlocked it, they rolled it back to iOS 4.3 However, when I try via the automatic method in iTunes, it fails. And when I try downloading the file (iPhone2,1_5.1_9B176_Restore.ipsw) and either updating or restoring using it, I get the following error message: "The iPhone xxx could not be restored because the firmware is not compatible" I tried turning on the phone into recovery mode (holding down home button and reconnecting) and tried it that way, but it still doesn't work.
