Iphone 5 stuck in recovery mode with an error 2001

My iPhone 5 is stuck in the recovery mode.  I have tried linking it up to iTunes by pressing the home key etc and managed to link it up but after resetting it to factory settings as asked and it removing software etc, it  just comes up with the error 2001. Please help!
It has not been dropped, near liquids or anything like that.
It just started doing it one day after putting it on charge.  It felt really hot when it was fully charged. Anyone have any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks for the help Lawrence.  I have tried that already but still not working.  Tried different USB port and cables and different computers.  No luck so far
so annoying...

    - Try on another computer
    - Try another cable
    - Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Iphone 5 stuck in recovery mode.  Unknown error 9 when trying to upgrade to ios7.

    My phone is stuck in recovery mode. Says error number 9 when trying to dl ios7,

    I had the same problem. After itunes extracted the new firmware, the apple logo would come on on my phone and then itunes would give me the unknown error (9). I tried everything I could think of to get ios 7 to download onto my phone but it kept going in a loop. What finally worked for me was after the firmware finished extracting on itunes and the apple logo appeared on my phone, I pressed the home button a few times. After that ios 7 started to load onto my phone. I don't know if it will work all the time, but it worked for me. Hope this works for you.

  • My iPhone is stuck in recovery mode. Getting Error 37 from iTunes

    My iPhone4 is stuck in recovery mode. When I try to restore it through iTunes I get the message that it couldn't be restored. It's either Error 37 or Error -1

    Hi again,
    I tried that, changing the firewall settings, and I got the -1 Error message.
    This problem began a few months ago.
    My hard drive died on my laptop, and I got it replaced and reinstalled iTunes on it. At that time I had an iPhone3.
    From then on, all of my music had glitches, quiet patches, and some tracks which would not work.
    I took my phone back to my service provider, who replaced it with an iPhone 4.
    When I set that up, I had the same problems with the music. I could download an album on the iPhone, and it would be fine, but when I sync the phone with the laptop the album becomes glitchy again.
    Now it's stuck in recovery mode again.

  • Ipod touch is stuck in recovery mode with a error code 9

    my ipod touch is stuck in recovery mode and when i try to restore it getting an error code 9

    Error 9: This error occurs when the device unexpectedly drops off the USB bus and communication stops. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB isolation troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

  • IPhone 4 stuck in recovery mode, wont restore - Error (9)

    Hey all,
    At my wits end here, my phone froze on the train home tonight, rebooted it, and it came up with the connect to iTunes icon.
    Looks like its in recovery mode and I cant get it out. Ive tried getting into DFU mode, different USB ports, different machines, different cables, re-installing iTunes AND RecBoot on Windows and OS X.
    Is there ANYTHING else I can do?

    Well, as a start, Recboot hosed the network database on your computer, which could be the problem. Especially if you had used it at some time in the past. Look in /etc/hosts, and if you see any lines containing "gs.apple.com" delete those lines.
    From your profile you are also using a version of OS X that is not compatible with iTunes 10, which is required to update iPhones. You need OS X Leopard 10.5.8 as a minimum.
    See: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error9 for other tips. You could have a bad or dirty connector on the iPhone also. Try cleaning it with a soft, dry toothbrush.

  • TS3694 i have a iphone 3g which is recovery mode with a error code 1015

    Hi, I have my old iphone 3g whch was originally on the O2 network. I have a new iphone now, but I want to restore my old iphone 3G for my ypung son to use, however, when I try to restore to the original factory setting it comes up with an error code of 1015. Please can you help or advice me on how to rectify this?

    Are you trying to downgrade iOS on your iPhone or did you previously jailbreak it?
    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.

  • 4s stuck in recovery mode with error 29

    The problems started when I changed the battery, now phone is stuck in recovery mode with an error code 29. Ive turned the firewall off and anti virus on my norton security, switched the computer on and off and tried to restore the phone about 6 times now. Has anyone any other ideas please?

    That's a hardware problem, most likely cause when you broke something in the process of changing the battery.

    Find a competent 3rd party repair shop or buy a new phone. Apple won't touch that one now that you've opened it.

    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
    Error 13, 14, 35 and 50 (or -50)
    These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
    Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
    Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
    Try a different Dock Connector or Lightning Connector to USB cable.
    Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
    There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. An incorrectly set default packet size can cause this error. Contact the software manufacturer that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows:How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
    Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
    I hope this information helps ....

  • IPhone 3gs stuck in recovery mode, firmware iO 5

    My iPhone is stuck in recovery mode. I have a 3gs, firmware 5.0.
    Before I tried to restore it, my iPhone would randomly shut off, turn back on, and display a notification that said "Activation Required." Now, sometimes my phone would shut off again and return to it's previous working state. However, this time it did not. I put the phone into recovery mode and tried restoring it on my Acer Aspire 1 with Windows 7. iTunes put the phone through the various stages of restoration; Extracting Software, Preparing iPhone for Restore, Restoring Software, Verifying Restore, Restoring Firmware. After all of this, a nice little error message pops up that reads, "The iPhone 'iPhone' could not be restored. An unknown error has occured (1)."
    After this little mishap occured four more times, I decided to click "More Information," and was promptly brought to the help page set up here. I proceeded to troubleshoot by updating to the latest version of iTunes, updating my security, restarting my computer, and so forth until all the necessary precautions were performed. Now it was back to iTunes to try my luck at getting my life back.
    To my delight, I found that this time the restoration process took upwards of forty minutes to complete. However, to my despair, a nice little error message popped up that read, "The iPhone 'iPhone' could not be restored. An unknown error has occured (-1)." Ah, a different error message! i thought, feeling as if there was hope in fixing my phone. I clicked "More Information" and skimmed through the specific error messages, looking for that lucky -1. Nothing.
    I need help. I have attempted to restore my phone a dozen times since this occurence, and I'm growing tired of going through the same process over and over and getting the same result. My phone is stuck in recovery mode now. I've tried restoring the phone on 2 different computers, to find out if, in fact, the problem was my iPhone and not my computer.
    Some important information you may need to know in order to help me solve my problem:
    iPhone 3gs
    Running iOS 5.0
    Using iTunes 10.5
    On an Acer Aspire One Netbook
    Running Windows 7
    All security updates installed as of November 7, 2011
    Also iTunes 10.5 on Acer Aspire 57354774 laptop
    Running Windows 7
    Reply ASAP with a solution please!

    Hello,
    I have an iPhone 3GS which I updated with the last firmware (iOS 5) 2 weeks ago. Everything goes ok.
    And suddenly, while the phone was recharching. It asked me to activate it but I was unable to do it as it was rebooting constantly every time I connected it to iTunes.
    I tried both 2 restore modes (Restore and DFU) but since I can't achieve a restore with the last Apple iOS 5 firmware. I got the error code 1.
    I I tried on 3 different computers but same error. I really don't know what to do next...
    I already called Apple Customer Care and I'm still waiting for an answer. I let you know.
    And you, did you manage to get your iPhone back alive ?

  • IPhone 3GS stuck in recovery mode while updating to iOS 6.1

    Hello there, I was updating my iPhone 3GS(New Bootrom) from iOS6.0 to iOS 6.1. While it was updating, iTunes suddenly ends up saying error and now my iPhone is stuck in recovery mode loop. I've tried DFU mode on my iPhone and try to kick it out by using TinyUmbrella but the computer doesn't reconize it. And when it was on recovery, iTunes doesn't reconize too, a window pops up and says i have to install 'Apple Mobile Device'. I've re-install and install iTunes a couple of times and nothing is working. Switching on and off the iPhone doesn't work too. Please, someone help me with this problem! I really do not know what to do! Please reply this As Soon As Possible!

    Ok. I have spent the last 8 hours researching this problem and have the absolute 110% answer to everyone's problem with this issue.
    Error 13 and 14 : Are checksum problems with the firmware image that is in the update package.
    The update package is a .ipsw (IPod or IPhone SoftWare). This file is actually just a .zip renamed .ipsw.
    The error is caused by a failure to download a crc-free version of the file. Not really sure why there are so many crc problems with the iphone updates, but Apple does not check the integrity of the update package before wiping your current version of IPhone software and that is why all IPhones that start an update with a bad update package end up in recovery mode. These errors are NOT related to the iTunes installation, antivirus software, or firewalls.
    Recommendation : use a program like "Object Fix" (Freeware) to verify the integrity of the file prior to commencing with any new updates. You will have to keep trying to download it until you get a error free file. Once you have a CRC error free file this problem will go away. (I thought TCP/IP helped get rid of CRC errors.)
    I had another problem and that was...
    Error 1603 and 1604 : These are USB driver connectivity problems.
    Recommendation : FULLY uninstall and re-install itunes software as stated in the Apple support documentation. Be sure to reboot between each step and these problems should clear themselves up. In addition, firewalls and anti-virus software may cause these errors as well.
    Finally, shame on apple for not properly documenting their software so that end users do not have to decrypt their error messages with no true support to solve the issues. These are problems that enough people have had that there should be specific documentation on these problems.
