Apologies to the Dev Team and big ups to Sherif Hashim for the nicest tip amongst all these replies. I greatly appreciate you bothered to note my package version. Pass me your Amazon wishlist or something, I'd be willing to gift you a small symbolic "thank you".

Absolutely right, even though I did rtfm. It was the matter of the wrong package for the wrong model.

Good advice, had a nice dinner out and grabbed an energy drink. Looking much better now.

Back behind the machine now and downloading 1,1. Of course, 2,1 is for 2nd gen! I very much hope it works out this time. I was already considering buying 3GS w/ subscription.

I have tried 0.72 on Mac and it rejects 3.0. There's not much to do wrong about it.

iPhone2,1_3.0_7A341_Restore is the 3.0 software, is that correct?

8.0 on Windows XP SP3, 8.2.1 and 8.2 (tried both) on Mac OS X Leopard. I can restore to 3.0.1 which is currently the only thing that succeeds. RedSn0w 0.8 crashes with "Waiting to reboot".

Yup, I've tried all, 0.7-0.8, all from official torrents. 0.7 or 0.7.2 does not recognise 3.0. Tried both on Mac and Windows.

This is all rubbish. 0.7.2 does not accept 3.0, as I said above.

redsn0w 0.8 crashes on Windows XP as well. Very similarly. I think it's pretty certain it's the application issue.

Nope, I'm on a Mac.

I'm afraid this is now a bricked phone, still. Nothing works and I've totally ran out of ideas. A bit of a waste I reckon.

Simply because redsn0w crashes on 3.0.1 "Waiting for reboot" and then a crash.

The commenting system here is really terrible. Wrong comments at wrong trees all messed up in Firefox 3.5.

Same error at another port, no help.

No help. Still in DFU.

0.72 does not recognise 3.0

What happened with 0.8 for you?

The iPhone couldn't be restored. An unknown error occured (1604)
