2G iphone restore error 1011

First off I have NEVER hacked my phone or jailbird or whatever the term is.
After reading various thread on this issue on this forum it looks like it's not going to get restored.
Hopefully someone reads this and decide to improve and fix this.
Yes I was very happy with the iphone the last 2 years or so that I had it. I really want to get a 4G iphone but I'm really disappointed with this issue.

IPhone Restore Failing at "Verifying IPhone Restore" Error -6

i have an old iPhone 3G that i use for my daughter. i took out the sim card and she could watch movies and play games. it crashed one day so i plugged it into a mac and tried to restore. well it goes through it's processes and gets to "Verifying iPhone Restore" (it completes "Verifying iPhone Software") and stops with an Error 6. I looked at Apple's page here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1275 and Error 6 has to do with Windows Registry. Well i wasn't using a windows box to restore, i tried it on a 15" MBP, a 13" MBP, and a 27" imac. I have tried doing this over 30 times and get the same Error 6.
Does anyone know of a solution to this? The iPhone is about 2 months out of warranty so i cant send it in without it costing $$$.

i took out the sim card and she could watch movies and play games
While you can use an iphone as a touch without a sim card in the phone, you cannot update or restore software without a valid sim card in the phone. The sim card need not be activated(with a carrier plan), but it must be present. So, are you trying to restore without a valid sim card? If so, that's your problem. You need a valid sim card, which is defined as a sim card from the carrier the phone was last locked to or used with. It need not be activated(with carrier plan), but it must be present.

Iphone restore error 23

Hi I am having quite a big problem with my iPhone
I have an iPhone 3G,
It won't switch on, when I plug it into a power source the apple logo appears and then the phone screen goes black after about 30 secs.
I read about a DFU mode or something, when I plug it into my laptop I have to hold down the lock button and home button at the same time and then just the home button.
This works and I get to the restore screen on itunes.
The restore starts but then after it says preparing to restore I get an error '23' code.
I have also tried doing the same thing on my sisters laptop and I get the same error so it is nothing to do with the laptop I don't think.
If anyone could tell me what to do to fix this error then i'd be very gratefull.
Thanks

Hi Pete,
If you haven't already, try restoring the iPhone on another computer.
Also, try the general tips in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275 may resolve the issue.
The iPhone will need service if the issue persists after trying the tips in that article. This webpage: http://www.apple.com/uk/support/iphone/service/faq/ provides answers to Frequently Asked Questions about iPhone service in the UK.

IPhone Restore error (1) and then in DFU, error(2001).

Hi All.
I have an iPhone4 which "needs to be restored". ITunes downloads the software and begins to unpack and restore the phone. The display on the phone is active and the progress bar is incrementing durng the process.
About half way through the process i recieve an error (1) from iTunes. When trying to restore in DFU mode this changes to error(2001).
The device's serial number is unknown (n/a) to iTunes. I am currently travelling and do no have documentation or original packaging with me.
I do not believe the warranty would be valid, and i am unaware of the location of any Apple stores within the region i am currently residing. However, this phone is registered with Apple, would there be a way of verifying this number from my AppleID account?
Is this a lost cause? Or is there a clever boffin out there who knows what i can do about this.
Kind regards and thank you in advance for any light that can shed on this matter,
Dan

Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software.
Error 1 or -1
This may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues, and restore your device on a different known-good computer. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.

IPhone restore error 1002

My phone is telling me that I need to restore it.
I did all the DFU/force restore stuff.
I used multiple computers.
Itunes will give me error message 1002 just before the phone completely restores. Phone is not jail-broken or anything like that.
I've tried to restore my phone at least 10 times to no avail.
What does error 1002 even mean? I'm desperate! Please help!

Very similar situation. I my 3gs in the car for 30min. It said that it overheated, but temps where not that hot??? It went in to emergency call only. I tried to restore several times. Called technical service and since it is a bit over a year old I could only get "tips" unless I wanted to pay for advise.
So I tried restore on my mac, on my pc. I have uninstalled/reinstalled itunes. I've turned off virus protection/firewalls. I've done every recommendation and it still spits out error 1002. I'm thinking it is toasted!!!!
If there are any success stories I would love to hear about it!
BTW I updated to iOS 4 only a few days before???

IPhone restore error (4)

How do I fix this? I've searched and have found no solutions. Please help.

How about thanks for the reply for starters.
Or how about including the troubleshooting steps you have already tried without success so those who volunteer their time to answer questions and provide help here don't waste their time and yours providing a troubleshooting step or steps you have already tried without success. And when they do because you didn't take the time to include what you have already tried, "of course I have" without a simple thanks, which is called manners especially when you are the one looking for help.
Including with your original post that you are trying to install a previous firmware version than the one currently installed on your iPhone is slightly pertinent information also.

Iphone Restore Problem (Error 1011) Any Help?

I am (was?) the proud owner of a 25 day old iPhone. Yesterday I got the "unable to make calls need repair" message. I've been trying for hours to get my phone to recover using itunes. It downloads all the all the firmware (version 1.1.4) but just as it is about to finish I get a message
The iPhone could not be restored, error 1011.
Any help/suggestions?
Thanks!

we might not be thinking of the same notification. when your fone is in sleep mode and you press the sleep/wake button on top, do u always see a message that says something along "Your iPhone cannot make/recieve call. Please visit www.apple.com/support" (Emphasis on that last part.) have you contacted apple? have you reset your iphone. have you tried restarting your iphone (probably) have you tried to restore ion a different computer? i would try all of these before calling apple bc most likely that is what they will have you do.
i hope im to some help =]

Hey jestinsinclairr,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
After reviewing your post, it sounds like you had one issue and then got a second trying to resolve the first. A frustrating situation for sure. The first article linked has what to do if it is not powering on unless plugged in. The second article addresses the error you are receiving when trying to restore.

Hi there owain11,
It looks like that particular error may be realted to a hardware issue. Take a look at the article below for more information.
Resolve iOS update and restore errors
Check for hardware issues
Related errors: 1, 3, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 20, 21, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 34, 35, 36, 37, 40, 1000, 1002, 1004, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1667, or 1669.
These errors mean that your device or computer may have a hardware issue that's preventing the update or restore from completing.
Check that your security software and settings aren't preventing your device from communicating with the Apple update server.
Then try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good.
Confirm that your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers.
If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

Iphone could not be restored error 1669

Instead of my network provider, my iPhone displays 'Searching...'. I tried to reset through my iTunes and my phone but could not due to Find My iPhone, so I went onto Find My iPhone on my computer and erased my phone thinking it would be like a factory reset. I have tried restoring the device but everytime I try I get Error 1669 and the restoration crashes on 'Restoring iPhone's Firmware' I was just wondering what I could do to get the phone back to before I erased it. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks.
