Hi the iphone iphone could not be restored. an unknown error occurred (56). what mean that?

More than likely a hardware issue. You will need to take your phone into Apple.
You can also use the search function type error 56 and you'll see other threads about the issue. You can read for yourself, if other solution will help.

While upgrading my iPhone 3GS to iOS 4.2 something went wrong and came up with the message "The iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error occurred [1015]." Now it will not start at all. It just stays on screen with USB and the iTune picture. What can I do to get it going again. I only tried to upgrade because I was prompted to up-grade and now I am helpless. I did a backup before starting the upgrade. The error message did not tell what to do next. Any help is very much appreciated.

Usually that means the iPhone was hacked to unlock it from the original
carrier .
Updating the operating system locks it back to that original carrier
You could try this

However if the iPhone was hacked it is probably a paper weight now
and as this is an Apple hosted forum you can get no further help here

Error 1015 is typically related to downgrading software.
Is your iPhone jailbroken or hacked? If so, it's likely "bricked".
If not, the highest iOS the iPhone can use is version 4.2.1.

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.

1015 error: There are 4 possible causes of this error:
The activation server truly is unavailable. Rare, usually fixed within minutes.
Your antivirus or firewall or router's firewall is blocking access to
gs.apple.com on ports 80 and 443.
Your iPhone is jailbroken or otherwise hacked.
The computer you connected to during the restore/update was
used to hack/jailbreak some other iOS device, and its
network database was corrupted during the process.

The iphone could not be restored. an unknown error occurred 1015

Hello everyone,
After upgrading to ios 4, my iPhone 3GS is stuck recovery and I am asked to restore it. However the operation cannot complete since at the end I get an error message that " the iphone could not be restored. an unknown error occurred 1015". What should I do? I am not close to any apple store and I cannot go there? Also, does the warranty allows me to get this fixed?
Thanks in advance

So that means that there is no way this thing can get fixed? How about degrading the ios 4.3 to 4.2? Is there any legal way to do that? Any comment/help is appreciated
P.S: I was thinking about jail breaking it since it is the only way that Google is suggesting. Would that be a better approach since I am tired of living with out a phone?
