Firmware upgrade 2.2.1 failed - can't restore iPhone 3G - Error 13 or 1016

I tried to upgrade my iPhone 3G 16GB to Firmware 2.2.1
As a result I cannot access my iPhone again, "restore" via iTunes aborts with Error code 13, sometimes with 1016.
Ok, my XP laptop has only USB 1.1, therefore I installed and activated iTunes 8 on another laptop having WinXP and USB2.0 interfaces. Same result, resore function results in Error code 13 and sometimes in error code 1016.
any help would be highly appreciated!
BTW:
- I tried the deactivation/activation of the computer -> doesn't help
- Reset of the iPhone with wake/sleep button + home button -> doesn't help

Hello Condor2000x,
Welcome to the Discussions Boards.
If you've tried the steps in TS1275, including a different computer, you may need to have the iPhone serviced.
You can find the service options for your region here:

Hope that helps,

  • Secure link to iTunes Store Failed, Can't restore iPhone.

    Good day,
    Am hoping to get some help please. We recently upgraded our desktop from Windows XP to Windows 7. Re-installed all the software as well as iTunes 10.
    All has been working fine, up until yesterday. The playlist which we where syncing with the iPhone 3G, had been changed and we wanted to sync the changes to the phone.
    When preforming the sync, it got to the point where it said "Finishing Sync" in iTunes, the phone said "Sync in Progress" and iTunes froze completely. (Not Responding) Left it for about 30mins, after which it still said the same. I rebooted the machine and the phone, and tried again with the same error. I then tried removing all music and videos from the phone. Same problem.
    My last resort was to attempt a restore of the phone. It started the restore and eventually got to a point where iTunes came up with the error 2003, unable to restore iPhone, the phone was now stuck in restore mode with the iTunes Logo and USB plug on the main screen.
    So off to the iStore to get it fixed. The phone was reformatted/restored there and was working fine but I did not have any contacts/messages or photos on the phone, so I attempted another restore, so I could get my info back. It came up with the same issue again. Error 2003.
    I then started browsing around and found out the iTunes diagnostics, it fails every time on the "Secure link to iTunes", iTunes has been added to the Windows firewall, I have tried un-installing my AntiVirus software and trying it with again but same result. I have checked the ports are all open. I have tried to reset my hosts file. I have reset my internet explorer settings, but nothing is working.
    Can anybody help me out with this please.

    The results show that you have a proxy server set and this can often cause problems with iTunes.
    The proxy setting can be accessed in Internet options>>Connections>>LAN Settings.
    Try un-checking the proxy server check box.
    It might also be a good idea to run a malware check if you didn't know you had the proxy server set.
    You can download a free version of an excellent scanner- Malwarebytes here:

  • HT201263 What does can not restore iphone unknown error occured (3005) mean? is it dead?

    I have an Iphone 3.  Yesterday it was working fine then Itunes said it had an update.  The update was unsucsessful and it said the phone needed to be restored.  I went through the restore steps and recieved an error.  Any suggestions?

    From this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    Errors 3000-3999 (3004, 3013, 3014, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the update server (gs.apple.com) on ports 80 or 443. 
    Update to the latest version of iTunes.
    Verify the computer's date and time are accurate.
    Check that your security or firewall software is not interfering with ports 80 or 443, or with the server gs.apple.com.
    Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
    An entry in your hosts file may be redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see "Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com" above).
    Internet proxy settings can cause this issue. If you are using a proxy, try without using one.
    Test restoring while connected to a known-good network.
    Error 3002: If you experience this error while updating an iPod touch (2nd generation) or iPhone 3G, please use the standard update or restore process in iTunes (click Update or Restore).
    Error 3014 may indicate that you need to free up more disk space on the computer before trying to restore again.
    Error 3194: You may not have the latest version of iTunes installed Update to the latest version of iTunes. If the issue persists, follow the steps above in "Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com".

    No, it's error 4014.
    I'm surprised that there is nothing about this on Google. I've only found one reference of "error 4014" in other thread (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5123621?start=0&tstart=0) but no solutions...

  • Can't Restore Iphone 5 (Error 2005)

    I tried to restore my iphone back to factory settings so i could give it to my mom. But midway through the process, it gave me an error 2005 (saying something is wrong with the USB, which is perfectly fine). Now it's stuck in recovery mode. I've tried it from recovery and dfu mode. I've been through a bunch of pages that are supposed to help, but nothing has helped. Are there any apps besides iTunes that I could use to manually install ios 6.1.4? Thank you

  • Can't restore iPhone 4 from IOS7.02 error 3014

    Hello all,
    Familiar topic for many.... Can't restore iPhone 4 after trying to update to IOS7.02 and keep getting error 3014 whenever it tries to restore firmware halfway through update process.
    Have read all of the discussions and done the following:-
    - tried it on another (proven) network
    - Tried it on another identity on my machine
    - deleted and reinstalled software update file several times over
    - tried different USB cables
    - checked that there are no ports blocked.
    - looked at the host file and there is no reference to gs.apple.com on there
    - Phone is not jailbroken
    - turned off security software.
    Any more suggestions?
    Grateful and expectant,
    ZNZB*
    P.S. Nearest Apple Store is about 3000 miles away, before anyone asks.

    Itunes is updating ALSO today
    Endless countless millions of people are trying to authenticate AFTER downloading the new IOS.
    Download servers and Authentication / Activation servers are slammed right now.
    Give it some time.   
    download servers VS. authentication servers
    If you've downloaded but can yet activate, you can wait till later and Activate your Iphone (or Ipad also) without any worries
    Iphones , Ipads, and Itunes are ALL being updated today, so server traffic is enormous.

  • Forgotten passcode - can't restore iPhone

    Hello.
    My iPhone got disabled after I entered passcode wrong several times. It asks to connect the device to iTunes, so I did. I followed steps from the instructions here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212?viewlocale=en_US ("if you've never synced your device with itunes" since I reinstalled Windows and lost the reserved copy of my iPhone in iTunes). After the first time I put iPhone into recovery mode, iTunes downloaded some updates and restored iPhone but I still had the problem with passcode. The device was still disabled and asked to connect it to iTunes. I put it into recovery mode again but I can't restore it because error 1611 occurred.
    How can I restore my iPhone and solve the problem with passcode?
    Thank you.

  • Can't restore iphone 5 using itunes, what to do ???

    Can't restore iphone 5 using itunes. It asks for update of ios 7.0.4 while it is in the latest ios and once I start the update using itunes it doesn't complete. Stucks with lots of errors like, 3253, 9000 series. What to do???

    "1- suddenly my iPhone 5 lost mobile company signal and word searching appears instead but no signal for the hole day so I changed the sim with other provider and since it gave me the same result I searched the web and the seems no solution other than restore.
    I did restore and update to iOS 7.0.4 but at the restore takes at the last 1% in the last moment of restore it will take loooong time then gave me error 3. And now for more than a month the iPhone stuck with recovery logo. Almost I tried every trick in the book . Change USB cable, port, PC. PC with other OS . Even freezing the iPhone as I read here noooooo result the same happened again and again."
    I have exactly the same problem with my iPhone 5s!

  • Help : After upgrade to IOS5, I only can use my iphone 3gs in Spore instead of Msia. Any1 know what is the problem & how to solve it?!

    I bought iphone 3gs in singapore last year,I had no problem to use it in Singapore & Malaysia but after i upgrade to ios5,i can't use it in malaysia.It will automatic restart my phone itself. Is it because of IOS5 problem?!Because when I register my itune a/c, I selected the country is Singapore. Anyone know what is the problem & how can I solve it?!

    If it automatically restarts the phone firmware is corrupt. Restore the phone with iTunes and set up as a new phone, do not restore your backup, which is likely where the corruption is. If it then works you can try restoring just the backup. If that breaks it again you know where the problem is; you will have to start over and manually reinstall your content.
    To restore just the backup, right click on the phone's name in iTunes and select "restore from backup"
