HT201413 My Iphone 3gs is showing error 28....when i try to restore it, it shows error 28 plz help.... :(

Somebody plz help...

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.

  • HT201210 Why can't i get my iphone 3gs out of recovery mode when i try to restore it?

    Hello People,
    My iPhone 3GS has gone into "Recovery Mode" and ive tried to restore it. When it reaches the firmware it stops and my iPhone restarts and i get an error message saying "The iPhone 'iPhone' could not be restored. An unknown error has occured(1)." Ive tried putting it into DFU mode but it doesn't seem to work (its like it is in a loop). Ive tried different firmwares such as 3.1.3 and 4.1 and it still stops at the firmware section. The iPhone was new out of the box about 4-5 days ago and i get this.
    Any suggestions please post below this thread.
    Best Regards,
    Kieran

    You've just exposed your email address to millions of people, some of whom are spammers or worse. That was not a good idea. Expect a massive increase in spam as a result, unless the mods see it and edit it out of your message. You can only restore a 3GS to iOS 5.1.1. If you are trying to install an earlier version you must hack or jailbreak your phone; error 1 is usually an indication that the phone is jailbroken. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error1

    If you use a mac

    find "hosts" and drag it to your desktop
    delete it from etc
    restore and once your idevice is restored put it back
    if you use a windows
    Press windows button+r
    type "system32"
    go to drivers > etc
    find hosts and drag it to your desktop

    Try to Restore on different computer with current iTunes. If still problem after Restore, then make Genius reservation or set up service and take or send to Apple for resolution.

  • HT1414 my ipad has frozen and when I try to restore I get an error 3194

    my ipad has frozen... I've backed up and synced everything but when I try to restore I get an error 3194.

    From the 3rd link below.
    Errors 3000-3999 (3004, 3013, 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 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".

  • HT202321 I am getting an error 36 when I try to restore my iphoto library.  Can someone please advise on how I should resolve this?

    I am getting an error 36 when I try to restore my iphoto library from my time machine.  Can someone please advise on how I should resolve this?  I have tried repairing permissions in the iPhoto library and that didn't help.  I've also tried using different versions of the iPhoto library from the time machine.  That resulted in the error as well.

  • I keep getting error 1603 when I try to restore my iPod why?

    I keep getting error 1603 when I try to restore my iPod why?

    Error 1604
    This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for the error.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
    The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
    Error 1603
    Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. Also, discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps under Advanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations.If you do not want to remove the IPSW in the original user, try restoring in a new administrator user. If the issue remains, Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.

    Hi, are you doing it through Settings or via iTunes? If doing it through Settings, try plugging it in via USB and updating with iTunes. Hope this helps.

  • I get an error 9 when I try to restore my iPhone 4s

    The title pretty much sums it up, but a little background.
    While reading a kindle book my 4s shut itself off. It then started, went to the apple screen, cut to white screen, and shut off again.  It repeated this in an unending loop.
    Since I had not backed up my Iphone since January, I was frantic, because I had over 650 pictures on there. Anyway, I tried charging it and after a while it started working again.  Miracle of Miracles! So I instantly uploaded all the pictures onto my laptop, but was unable to back the phone up again.  But it was late and I figured I'd try it again later.
    The next day, during normal activities such as reading a book, playing a game, or even swiping on the home screen, the phone would randomly cut off, restart, and then be fine. 
    Finally it cut off again, and went into the dreaded cycle.
    Even though I hadn't backed it up fully, I decided to try to restore it. It was the only option I could think of. (I've already ordered a new phone, but it won't be here for 2 weeks, so I'm trying to fix this one temporarily to avoid getting a trac-phone.)
    Initially I got a high numbered error message when I tried to restore the phone. So I updated my computers OS and Itunes.  Then I tried again.
    Now I"m getting an Error 9 message.  After looking up the troubleshooting for that message, I don't know what to do.  I don't have any periphials on my computer: just the power cable and the usb connected to the phone.
    Does anyone have any ideas, or am I just the last guy holding the bag and out of luck here?
    TL:DR?
    I have to restore my 4S and I'm getting an Error 9 when I try. Nothing extra is attached to my computer, and the OS and Ituns is up to date.
    Thank you all in advanced!

    Hi there,
    Do you have icloud account? You need firstly turn off find my iphone (by go to icloud.com -->sign in --> go to "Find my iphone" and erase your iphone in it). And then you restore your iphone with DFU mode.
    When you erase your Find my iphone and if you can not restore, your iphone has a problem with hardware.
    Some infos can help you.
    Kind regards,

  • HT201210 my iphone is having error 2003 when i try to take it out of recovery mode help please?

    i am trying to get my iphone 3g out of recovery mode cause its been like that for a long time and when i try to restore it is giving me error 2003

    Have you tried manually downloading the firmware and when you get to the restore screen you hold down either shift or ctrl which will pop up with a menu that will let you choose the firmware of your choice. I'll look more into error 2003
    *i know some of these problems may be due to lack of power on the usb port, or the data transfer cord has problems such as low power or one way transfer. have you tried a different computer for the restoration or another cord?
