Hi guys,

I tried doing Erase all data and settings on my iphone and now its stuck at the apple logo, so I decided to do a DFU.

Unfortunately after doing the dfu, after extracting package, the itunes tells me that the iphone cannot be restored because of unknown error 1, does anyone face this problem before?

Thanks.

iPhone Generation : 2G
Current Firmware : 2.1
iTunes Version : 8.0
Computer Platform : MAC OS X 10.5.5
Jailbreaking software : Pwnage
Problem Encountered : Unknown error 1 during restore process
Steps Had Taken (list down) : Attempt dfu mode again.
Problem Screenshot (if any) :
Other Info / Remark : Iphone is unable to boot in. Now stuck at apple logo.

Sorry, too gan jiong edi.. Now the phone is a brick. =(

Hey guys, I am back.

I didn't know that Erase all Data and settings means that its gonna take the OS away as well, and I think Apple should have known better to tell people that their iphones are not going to boot after the process.

Anyway, I solved my problem in a strange way. Since Itunes in my mac doesnt works, I boot camp into windows vista, and tried doing the restore using itunes 8.0 for windows. Surprisingly, it worked this time, no error (1), nothing, the restore went fine even using pwned firmware.

That said, I suspect my mac's itunes is corrupted. Because currently, my mac's itunes cannot sync applications. Does anyone have instructions on how to fully clean up itunes and reinstall it?

btw, thanks to all for your advises (I used dfu to restore everytime, so I am not familar with the 'connect to itunes' restore.).
