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

  • Iphone 4 wont restore, help

    I got a new iphone 4 yesterday, and I woke up to it saying connect to itunes. After doing that, it said "itunes had dectected a phone in recovery mode. You must restore iphone." So I click restore. And then restore and update. Then it says extracting software... But after that it just says "The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (2006). and my iphone's screen goes back to connect to itunes. HELP!

    Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on): If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software.

    iPhone 5 wont restore backup from iCloud. Ive tried restoring the backup over 10 times now and it keeps saying it can not restore backup, and it is connected to the internet.

    Yes, if you're restoring from iCloud.  No, if restoring from iTunes.

  • IPod touch being read as iPhone and wont restore.

    Hi,
    Recently I paid to update my iPod touch 2nd gen 16gb to 3.0 firmware.
    I bought my iPod about 3 weeks ago.
    It was has been working fine, but now, it's reading my iPod Touch as an iPhone.
    Before that, I would try to update it, and it would say the firmware corrupt error, and this was with ANY firmware I tried. I also went in to delete the corrupt file in the appdata sector, and there was nothing there.
    Regardless, I deleted the folder, but it still has the corrupted firmware line. I also put it into recovery mode, and tried to update from there but it still said corrupted firmware.
    This iPod as an iPhone is the newest problem though, I don't understand why it would pick it up as that.
    I have also uninstalled and reinstalled itunes.
    I have not attempted to jailbreak or anything of that sort.
    It does still work and function correctly besides the attempted updating and or restoring part.
    Now it's reading as an iPod but still wont restore or update...
    Any help would be nice, thanks!

    Hi,
    Make sure the iPod touch is directly connected to a high-speed USB2 port on the PC, using the cable that came with it. This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1286 provides other tips that will rule out USB connection issues.
    This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1207 provides more general tips that may resolve the issue.

  • Itouch wont restore   HELP PLEASE

    i have a 2nd or 3rd generation itouch. when i unplug it from charging it doesnt work. and when it is pluged in the apple logo appears. i tried restoring it but i wont restore. all it says is "the ipod "******"could not be restored. an unknown error occered (1602). how can i fix this? PLEASE HELP ME

    As mentioned in your other post:
    Here are some suggestions, copied from Update and restore error messages on iPhone and iPod touch
    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 1600, 1601, 1602
    Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. This error may also be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps in this article for details on troubleshooting security software.

  • Have a error code 4013. iphone 4s wont restore after update.

    my iphone will not restore after update. it is stuck in recovery mode. i get error code 4013 everytime a try to restore but i cant find anything on error code 4013.

    DFU mode is also good as stated above, however the instructions for DFU mode are below (please note this is not the same as recovery mode) -
    Plug your device into your computer.
    Turn off the device.
    Hold the Home button and Power button for 10 seconds
    Release the Power Button but keep holding the Home button
    Keep holding the Home button until you are alerted by iTunes saying that it has detected a device in Recovery Mode
    Make sure the device screen is blank and no logos are present, device screen should remain black.
    Error 4013 is due to security software issues. Uninstall all security software completely, try again, if the issue persists I would either recommend another computer or calling AppleCare tech support at 1-800-APL-CARE (for US customers).
    Note- this is even if your device worked fine prior to iOS 7 update with your security software. The change in the operating system on the device can cause compatibility issues with these other programs.
    I hope this helps it worked for me!

  • Iphone 4 wont restore or turn on

    Iphone 4 wont turn on or go into dfu mode. no sign of life. when i hook it to the computer itunes starts and says it is in recovery mode. i click restore but it only gets as far as "waiting on iphone" and the phone has the apple and a progress bar that remains empty for hours. nothing seems to help

    Try this...
    Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    Turn the Phone On...

  • Iphone 4s wont restore at all

    My ipone 4s wont restore in itunes. When i connect it, it goes through the update the when the restore happens it does'nt work. I get the 4000's errors like 4014. The phone  has a black screen and when it is plugged in, the flashlight is always on. I have tried updating itunes, using different computer, and different cables and usb ports. Nothing works. I would really like to know how to fix it.

    Hi nick_740,
    If you are getting an error 4014 when attempting to restore your iPhone, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

  • Iphone 4 wont restore - 1601 error

    Iphone 4 - 4.1 factory unlocked - bought in Switcerland! - 1 mount old.
    Issue: Iphone started to power off every 2 every hours and going in to the restore mode! Done a 4-5 restores on 4.1! But know it wont restore. It gives me
    error 1601 - and wont pass itunes screen Preparing iphone for restore!
    And also itunes recognizes iphone only in dfu mod! I tried in recovery mode
    but itunes didnot recognized my iphone - tried on 3 difernt computers(windows platform)
    I have tried almost everything! Change usb port,3 differnt computers ,reinstaling itunes, cleaning the registry after uninstall, tinyumbrella - to kick device, etc.
    Anyone any suggestions? If it is a hardvare issue, will Apple accept warranty
    because a got this iphone 4 for birthday - ( it is used in another country).
    Also it is registered on my name!

    apple only provides warranty in the country that the phone was purchased in so you will have to go there to get a warranty replacement

  • My iphone 4 wont restore my photos from my old iphone 4 that was faulty i have saved them but the only photos that save are the ones of my camera and i cant delete them off?? HELP

    I need help I got a repcement iphone 4 on monday because the one i had was faulty! I did the update sunday night to make sure i wouldnt loose everything! I restored the new one on the monday when i got home and i have lost all my photos and some contacts! I am really upset I have had the iphone 3 and wheni restore it with the faulty iphone 4 it worked but not now!  HELPP

    what photos are you talking about?
    Photos taken with an iPhone are stored in the camera roll.  Like any digital camera, it is advised that you import these into your computer for safe keeping.  That's where the photos should be--back on your computer for you to be able to resynch back to your phone.
    As far as contacts, again, it is recommended that you synch your contacts with a contact manager like Outlook or Address Book.  That's where the contacts should reside. 
    Have you not been using your phone as recommended?  If not, well, now you know why these steps are recommended.  The iPhone is NOT designed as a storage device.

  • PLEASE HELP iPhone 4s wont restore despite every fix error 29/21

    Hi all,
    I thought I was being clever telling a mate at work Id be able to fix his 4s after he tried to upgrade to ios7 and it basically bricked. when on it shows the cable and world symbol and nothing else.
    what ive done so far:
    entered dfu and tried to restore numerous different firmwares including the latest but no luck. I will say that restoring on itunes to latest firmware gets 99% there before failing error 29 (sometimes 21).
    edited hosts file in terminal to remove the gs.apple file. does nothing
    downloaded tiny umbrella to remove cydia thingy but its not highlighted anyway
    exited itunes before doing any host file edits and rebooted.
    if i don't edit hosts file i dont get an error code i get 'requested build cannot be done' message
    phone is currently useless but i cant understand why i cant boot an earlier firmware to get it out of this loop of failure??
    any help in non tech terms would be gratefully received other than 'chuck it away and buy another' - this MUST BE FIXABLE
    Kris

    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.
