1st thread 1st post https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/603129/ if you are trying to restore pack to 6.0 for some reason then you will need shsh blobs. it will also be useful to say what error IE Error 1600.
I don't get an error.
Here's where I am at. I have an iPhone with nothing on it. If I jailbreak it through redsnow, I get it to boot, and go through the initial setup, but with no Cydia, and I can't use the built in Mail app, then if I try 'Just Boot' from Redsnow I get a missing shsh message.
If I restore through iTunes, I get a message that the cannot activate my iPhone and to contact customer service.

Thread title says you need to "unjailbreak" (Your word)

My iPhone was jailbroken. I was having crash issues. I wanted to factory restore. iTunes will not factory restore. This made me have an iPhone that was doing nothing. I tried to jailbreak it again, I made it further than I did with iTunes, but Cydia will not install.
What I want: iPhone with Factory Defaults.

Why not just restore it to 6.0.1 ?
Choose set up as new, do not restore to backup.
Make sure host file points to Apple, not Cydia (type gs.apple.com and make sure you go to an Apple placeholder page)
Reboot the phone and computer before you try it.
Try a different USB port and cable if necessary.
And if none of that works, a different computer usually does the trick.

You have to have a sim in the phone from the carrier who sold the phone.
If unlocked, any sim will do.
You have an activation issue, nothing to do with a restore issue.
If you don't have a sim from carrier, try eBay or Craigslist (if available)

If you are bricked and cant do anything with your iDevice, and its stuck on the " Connect iDevice to iTunes " Just go to http://thefirmwareumbrella.blogspot.com/ download windows or Mac.. and then run the program > exit out of recovery... Then put it into DFU mode adn try restoring...
Did you actually read the thread ?
Thread starter had an activation issue, putting a sim in the phone activated the phone.
