ITunes Errors/16xx

Error 1600

- Custom firmware can't be restored on a device with DFU Mode. The software of the iPhone isn't patched. Using iREB, sn0wbreeze, redsn0w, or PwnageTool, you need to 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 trully stuck (even with an regular iTunes Restore), edit the file /etc/hosts (or windows equivalent) and comment everything except "127.0.0.1 localhost"
