Are you trying to downgrade your iPhone?
Errors related to downgrading iOS
The required resource cannot be found: This alert message occurs when your device has a newer version of iOS than what is available in iTunes. When troubleshooting a device that presents this alert message, go to Settings > General > About and check the version of iOS on the device. If it is newer than the latest released iOS version, the device may have a prerelease developer version of iOS installed. Installing an older version of iOS over a newer version is not supported.
Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. 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.
(from iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting)
If not, try to move or delete the IPSW file and let iTunes download it again.
Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw)
iTunes uses "ipsw" files to restore your device. If those files are unusable, then try deleting them, renaming them, or moving the file to a different directory. This will cause iTunes to download a new copy of the IPSW. When a restore issue is specific to a user, it is likely due to an unusable .ipsw file. If removing the .ipsw file does not resolve a user-specific restore issue, then the issue is caused by other user-specific security software settings or iTunes preferences. Creating a new user will also cause new .ipsw restore files to be downloaded in the new user. You can find the ".ipsw" files in these locations:
Mac OS X

Hi ratcat14!
I have an article that can help you troubleshoot this issue:
Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
Check for hardware issues
Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
Common errors: 1, 10-47, 1002, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1000-1020.

Update 3G - Error code 1015

Hi;
Was given an iphone by a friend who said it weren't working anymore. Tried to get it into recovery mode to install IOS 4.2.3 (I think, anyway - doesn't show the version number now?) with iTunes 10.5.3.3
Went through the update process but then dropped out with error code 1015. From googling it seems that this is when a phone has been jailbroken...
My friend bought this off someone a while ago and says the person who had it before did this with Cydia... and has only really used it as an ipod themselves so hasn't noticed anything. The phone still sits at the black apple logo screen.
Can anyone help on this?

Error 1015 is most often a downgrade error. When this is issued by iTunes when restoring to 4.2.1 (obviously not a downgrade) the most common cause is that the iPhone has the iPAD baseband. You will have to search the Web for information on how to get your iPhone working again.

TS3694 Does anyone know what error code 1015 means?

Does anyone know what error code 1015 means?

It usually means the iPhone was hacked, with "jailbroken" being the cutsie term for that.

It sounds like that unit was/is jailbroken. We can't help you here with that because of Apple's TOS. I suggest using Google or YouTube for help.
