Hello, nanipan. 
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
Here is an article that you may find helpful with this issue. 
Check for hardware issues
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 alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

    my iphone 3g won't restore because of an error 1015. Can you help me please

    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.
    The above comes from this article:

    Do not try to downgrade the version of iOS you have.

  • IPhone 4 won't restore backup, no error code

    I recently backed-up my iPhone 4 running iOS 7.1.1, and when I try to restore the backup in iTunes, it loads all the way and then gives me the error "The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored because an error occured." I've tried many things, I've restored the iPhone many times and attempted to restore the backup many times too. I really need to restore the backup to my phone, and I don't understand why it's not s

    Okay - other things I would try is different USB cables and restoring on another computer if possible.
    If no joy with either of those, make an appointment at an Apple store near you and bring it in to be evaluated. It may have a hardware problem and will need to be replaced.

  • TS3694 iphone could not be restored. an unknown error 1015 has occured.. what to do now??

    My iphone could not be restored. it shows that an unknown error has occured (1015). How to restore my iphone from a recovery mode?

    If you're getting an error 1015 then either it's jailbroken or the computer you're using was used to jailbreak or attempt to jailbreak an iOS device.
    If you are NOT getting error 1015, then you are NOT having the "exact same problem".

    Error 1015 might happen after making unauthorized modifications to iOS, also called "jailbreaking."

  • IPhone 4 won't restore from iTunes - Error 2

    Hi,
    Since upgrading to IOS 7 my iphone 4 has been stuck on the connect to iTunes screen. I cannot turn if off and every time I try restoring it from iTunes I get the same error message 2. I have scoured the internet for possible fixes and tried almost every suggestion that was feasible to no avail. This is my last shot before admitting defeat and trekking to a genius bar. The phone is a few years old and no longer under warranty so I expect some hefty charges! Any help much appreciated.
    Thank you very, very, very much!

  • Ipad won't restore because of error 23

    My iPad original (3g & wifi) will not restore. It goes through extracting software, preparing, and then stops flashing up error 23. I've restarted in dfu mode and still nothing. Can anyone help?

    Maybe your firewall and antivirus software are causing a confilct.

    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.

    Hi NWL1,
    Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the iPhone won't update and is stuck. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

  • Dropped phone in coffee, turns on but sticks on the i tunes icon. Restore won't complete because of  error 29. Any ideas?

    dropped phone in coffee, turns on but sticks on the i tunes icon. Restore won't complete because of  error 29. Any ideas?

    After being submerged in coffee, did you power the iPhone off right away and if so, how long did it remain off to be completely dry - for the interior, not exterior?
    Did the coffee include cream and sugar? Electronics and moisture don't mix especially with moisture that includes sugar.
    Regardless, sounds like there is some hardware damage especially if not powered off and allowed to dry with the interior before being powered back on.

  • HT201263 Iphone 4 won't restore on Itunes and is stuck in connect to Itunes screen

    My phone updated on its own. I didn't want the new i 0S 7 because I have an Iphone 4. Somehow my phone when i wasn't on it went to a black screen with the apple logo and a progress bar. I restarted it, connected it to itunes, and it won't restore because my phone is rejecting the update.

    Take it to an Apple authorized repair center or Apple Store Genius Bar. The home button defect is NOT a software problem.

    The error message you are getting sounds like you have jailbroken your iPhone or have updated to iPhone OS 4.0 Beta.
    Eitherway, I would follow http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1275 for a possible solution as these steps may not work.

I have no idea what to do now. I appreciate your guyses help!

    This error generally indicates a hardware failure.  Bring the phone to Apple for evaluation.
