This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error1015.

Now that Apple has stopped signing iOS 4.0.1, you wont be able to restore your iPhone 4 on iOS 4.0.1 by simply pointing iTunes to iOS 4.0.1 ipsw file. Because if https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5090455?tstart=0 you do so, iTunes will throw an error: “This iPhone [your name] iPhone could not be restored. This device isn't eligible for the requested build. Now to fix this error, you will have to make a couple of changes in your system’s “host” file, by pointing it towards Cydia server instead of Apple’s. Also this is not it, you may also receive another error during restore: 1004, or 1015 from iTunes saying: “The iPhone [you name] iPhone http://www.redmondpie.com/fix-itunes-1004-1015-error-and-restore-iphone-4-3gs-successfully-on-ios-4.0.1-how-to-guide/ could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1004)”. The following step by step instructions will guide you on how to fix these errors so that you can restore any of your new iOS devices like iPhone 4 or 3GS to iOS 4.0.1 successfully. Step 1: Download the required iOS 4.0.1 ipsw firmware files from here. Step 2: Put your device into DFU mode (not recovery mode). Connect your iPhone to your computer. Turn iPhone off. Start iTunes. Hold Power and Home buttons together for 10 seconds or so. Release Power button but keep holding the Home button until your computer recognizes a new USB device. iTunes will now recognize your iPhone. Note: Your iPhone screen at this time should be blank (black in color), if not, then you are most likely in Recovery Mode, not DFU mode. Step 3: Before you proceed, you must make sure that you have your SHSH blobs saved on Cydia for the firmware version you restoring or downgrading to. If you don’t have your SHSH files saved, you cannot downgrade or restore to iOS 4.0.1. So now, what we will do is to trick iTunes into thinking that it is watching Apple servers, while in real, we are going to change the address to Saurik’s server. Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\ and locate “hosts” file. Mac OS X users can get to “/etc/” direct

/ The iphone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1015)The iphone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1015) [show_author_avatar---] Posted by Don Caprio . 98 Comments The iphone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1015) I kept getting this error message while trying to restore my iPhone some few weeks back and I was stuck in a never ending recovery loop. Each time the restore was about to complete, the error was coming up and I was being prompted to restore the phone again: iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes I was confused about what to do but eventually came up with a solution. If you've previously jailbroken your iPhone and updated to iPad baseband, you're most likely to encounter this issue. I was able to kick my phone out of recovery mode with this method and I guess it should work for you. - Download redsn0w_win_0.9.10b6 (Windows) | redsn0w_mac_0.9.10b6 (Mac) - Run the software and click on Extras -Select your IPSW file. If you haven't downloaded it, you should get it from here. Be sure you download the one that corresponds with your device! - After that, click on Recovery Fix - Turn off your iPhone by holding the power button for some seconds. - Hit the Next button - Follow the instruction on the next page to get your phone into DFU mode At this stage you will be presented with a screen where you will be guided on how to enter DFU mode. Quickly hold “Power” button and then while holding the “Power” button, you will now have to hold “Home” button too. Now after few seconds release “Power” button but keep holding “Home” button until installation begins. - In some seconds, your phone should restart and boot normally. This should fix your the error 1015 update error.
