Server running Phase 1 AES 128, SHA 1, DH Key group 2, aggressive
I haven't looked at the article you reference, but one thing I would note is that aggressive mode with PSK isn't considered secure, and if you look at the error messages you can see that the connection fails because this combination has been disabled for this reason.
My recommendation would be: Main, AES 256, SHA1, DH group 5 (1536 bit)
-
that's the iphone doing aggressive, i've got the server set for main. I think this just won't work - something's changed after 2.2. I heard that in 2.1 this worked.

It definitely works in 2.2.2:
https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=92197.msg518104#msg518104
I have since moved to certificates, but PSK was well tested with 2.2.2. I know of no reason that that configuration would not still work with 2.2.4 as well. [N.B. with 2.2.4 you need to change the Peer Identifier to Any]
The only thing that I know of that worked in 2.2.2, and does not work in 2.2.4, is the mixed IKEv1 and IKEv2 configuration. As you are using IKEv1 only, this shouldn't matter.

Your server needs to match your client.
P1: IKEv1 aggressive, mutual PSK + XAuth, local ID IP address, peer ID user DN, AES256 SHA1 DH group 2.
P2: Tunnel mode, local network 0.0.0.0/0, AES256 SHA1 no PFS
