iPhone Error 1611, update bricked?

NPPraxis · April 16, 2010

Hello,

I agreed to give my old 1st gen iPhone to a friend of mine (as I've been on a 3G right now). I went and pulled it out of the storage shed, plugged it in, and booted it up. It came up just fine, prompting me to insert a SIM card (I had the phone unlocked).

Before giving it to him, I decided to update to the latest OS (which I had done on my 3G the week prior). So I plug it in to my MacBook, download the latest 3.1.3 update for the original iPhone through iTunes, run it through the latest version of Pwnage to get an ipsw, put the iPhone in restore mode, and update from the .ipsw.

I received an error, and the iPhone seems to have been bricked.

Now, when turned on, it goes straight to DFU mode (showing a cable and the iTunes logo).

When I try to update, the iPhone reboots at the "preparing iPhone" stage, and then iTunes errors out with:

"The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1611)."

I have tried this from my MacBook, Hackintosh (which errored out with (2006)?), and Windows 7 PC. The first machine I tried it on was the MacBook.

Can anyone assist?

If it helps, here's some bits from the log....
