IPhone :: Moving From 4.0 (Beta 1) To 3.1.3 - "error = 1015"?
Apr 8, 2010
Super excitement and transition to 4.0 on my 3G but I train a lot so try a DFU and restore, but alas the error "error = 1015" appears at the end of the restored thus:
Error 1015: This error appears when attempting to upgrade to an older version of the iPhone or iPod touch. This may occur when you try to perform a restore using an old file. Ipsw. The upgrade to an earlier version is not supported. To resolve this problem, try performing a restore using the latest version of the software of the iPhone or iPod touch available from Apple.
My phone froze yesterday and the date changed to 1 jan 2000. I tried to restore it but now I get an error 1015 at the end. What can I do to get it to work again?
Was given an iphone by a friend who said it weren't working anymore. Tried to get it into recovery mode to install IOS 4.2.3 (I think, anyway - doesn't show the version number now?) with iTunes 10.5.3.3 Went through the update process but then dropped out with error code 1015. From googling it seems that this is when a phone has been jailbroken... My friend bought this off someone a while ago and says the person who had it before did this with Cydia... and has only really used it as an ipod themselves so hasn't noticed anything. The phone still sits at the black apple logo screen.
After requesting for a carrier unlock with AT&T, I received their confirmation email and followed the directions. I have been trying to restore my iPhone 3G using the latest iTunes installed on a MacBook with OS X Lion. I have been unable to restore and use my phone. I am stuck at restoring it over and over giving me an error code of 1015.
Im trying to restore my iphone 3G, i used itunes to restore it so it downloaded the iOS, after that it gives me the error 1015, when i read about the error then it tells me that i was downgrading, but how come since i used itunes to restore? why didnt it automatically provide me with the latest software made perfectly for the iPhone?
