Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm 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.

Related errors: 17, 1004, 1013, 1638, 3014, 3194, 3000, 3002, 3004, 3013, 3014, 3015, 3194, or 3200. These alerts refer to gs.apple.com, say "There was a problem downloading the software," or say the "device isn't eligible for the requested build."
Check the hosts file or TCP/IP filtering, which might cause communication issues between iTunes, ports, and servers.

Iphone 4s wont restore. HELP!

Hi there.
My iphone 4s wont restore no matter what i do.
i've tried everything i belive.
First of all when im trying to do a normal restore it says" The software for the Iphone "XXXXXX" was corrupted during download"
I've turned off my firewall's and uninstalled my anti virus program, tried multiple cables, tried other computers both MAC and Windows, reinstalled itunes,
Then i tried SHIFT+restore with both 5.0(running tinyumbrella) and 5.0.1, i did both in recovery mode and DFU mode.
i get these error codes " 11,14,2005, "
Then i red something about corrupted IPSW files, and i ran the IPSW file in a program call'ed "object fix", i did find a bad CRC file in the IPSW called "038-3705-001.dmg" so i downloaded a diffrent IPSW but it gets the same error.
So if i could find a IPSW without a bad CRC that could be the solution, but i cant.
I really hope that some guys can help me. Thanks.

No jailbreak. all of the online 'fixes' related to installing tiny umbrella to exit the restore mode and unchecking a Cydia (whatever that is) is one of the main points. I was just suggesting it doesn't work.
I Assume u work for apple based on the fact you would care about a jailbroken phone (I can't imagine it bothers anyone else) so perhaps you could look into this fault? I have read about a battery fault issue but I can't see how one day on iOS 6 it works and then on attempting to install 7 it's now a battery fault? Makes no sense. Thanks

HELP my iPhone wont restore!!!!

I connected my iPhone to my MacBook and as usual he connects with iTunes.
My iTunes asked for an update on the software of the phone. I confirmed and the process started.
The update stopped but before finishing.
I can't start up my iPhone and when I connect it to my iTunes he asks to restore.
He starts restoring but then stops and gives an error 1611.
Can somebody help me??? I have no idea what happend and how to restore this.

READ ALL OF THESE NOTES THROUGH AND THROUGH TWICE before proceeding. You'll need to somewhat anticipate the next steps as you're doing this!
1. Use a second computer and install iTunes... (DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT uninstall iTunes from computer #1 (AKA) the computer you are having the issues with. (You may lose ALL of your iPhone info which is saved on computer #1. The info is already gone from your iPhone, so you will have to restore it!)
2. On computer number 2, once iTunes is installed, hook up your iPhone. iTunes should tell you that it has found an iPhone in restore mode and it must be restored. Go through all of the steps until your iPhone is successfully restored. It should be very easy and iTunes will walk you through it. This will delete ALL of your info on your iPhone (which is really already lost) and it will get the iPhone back to the factory settings (just like it was the day you bought it)...
3. If you keep getting errors saying the iPhone can't be restored, re-install iTunes on computer #2 and try again. (I REPEAT, DO NOT UNINSTALL ITUNES FROM COMPUTER #1) or any computer you may have synced your phone to previously.
If reinstalling iTunes doesn't fix this and you still can not get the iPhone to restore, go to a 3rd computer and try until you get the iPhone restored to factory settings.
4. DO NOT PLUG YOUR iPhone INTO COMPUTER #1 YET!
Once the iPhone is successfully restored to its factory settings, walk back to computer #1. AGAIN, DO NOT PLUG IN YOUR iPhone YET!!
5. On computer #1 open iTunes. Go to Edit/Preferences/Devices and check the box that says "prevent iPhones/iPods from syncing automatically". If this is not checked your iPhone may sync to a corruped restore point and you'll have to start over and re-restore your iPhone.
*Note the device backup window on this screen. There should be at least one date and time from when you previously restored your iPhone. If not, you are probably screwed. Click OK and close that window.
6. Plug in your iPhone and let it do whatever it does. Now, on the left hand side of iTunes RIGHT mouse click on your iPhone icon. Click "restore from backup"
There will be a drop down menu that lets you select from your previous sync dates. AGAIN, if you haven't synced you could be screwed.
Select a date from you which you think the iPhone will work, and click RESTORE.
This should restore your iPhone back to that sync date.
This worked for me!!

HT201210 my iphone wont respond it wont restore

my iphone wont let me do anything it wont let me restore either

That usually indicates a hardware failure. If you can return it and get your money back, do so. Otherwise, make an appointment at the genius bar and get the phone replaced or buy a new one.

Error 1015 occurs on a phone that's been jailbroken.
Jailbreaking not only voids any remaining warranty with Apple, but forfeits your right to any Assistance from Apple, including from this forum.
In addition, discussion of jailbroken phones is strictly prohibited by the Terms of Use of this forum.
You'll have to search elsewhere on the internet for assistance. It's very likely your phone is permanently hosed.
