me iphone could not be restored an unknown error occurred 23

This is usually a bad Hardware Error, most often the result of Water Exposure. Sometimes it is baseband chip damage which is fatal to iPhone. Some have fixed this Error with Battery Replacement or Dock Connector Replacement. If you have Warranty or AppleCare Coverage take iPhone to Apple for resolution.

  • "the iphone could not be restored an unknown error occurred (2)"

    Yesterday I connected my iPhone 4 to my Windows 7 laptop, and went through to install the latest security update for iPhone through iTunes. When it was installing the software update, the phone froaze, and then this happened:"the iphone could not be restored an unknown error occurred (2)"
    Now, I have uninstalled and reinstalled both Bonjour and iTunes, to no avail. I have done the iPhone reboot method, and the phone will be identified as "iPhone" but not recognised as mine. iTunes states this phone is in recovery mode and I have tried numerous times to restore it.
    Windows doesn't detect the phone while this is happening. It will not restore and the error is still popping up. I have followed as many threads to rectify this but nothing seems to be working.
    I can resore it on my iMac but the reset date for the iPhone on this computer is six months old.
    Any suggestions?

    When you say you uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it, did you follow the directions in this Apple support document exactly? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    That will make a difference on Windows computers. After that, try and reconnect and restore.

    I have tried to hold the "home" and "power" button to reboot
    I have tried powering it off
    I have tried, to unplug the cable, hold the "home" button and then plug it in.
    Can't check the SN or warranty, cause it is stuck in restore mode.
    Is the hard drive gone? Should there be something replaced.

    This may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues, and restore your device on a different known-good computer. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Usually this is caused by your antivirus or firewall blocking iTunes access to the Internet. It can also occur if the phone is jailbroken or if the computer you are using was ever used to jailbreak an iDevice.

  • HT201210 the iphone could not be restored. an unknown error occurred (1015).

    the iphone could not be restored. an unknown error occurred (1015).

    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 Iphone could not be restored.An unknown error occurred(1604)

    I'm trying to restore my iphone as my iphone suddenly stopped working.I just see silver colour apple symbol when i switch on then it displays usb to itues symbol. thats all..
    so when i trying to restore the iphone i get the below message.
    The Iphone could not be restored.An unknown error occurred(1604)
    i have tried from diffrent computer but i still get the same error.
    can someone help...please...thanks

    Try the following, which worked for someone else:
    Disconnected all other USB items (ext. hard drives)
    Disabled Symantec Anti Virus
    Reset the iPhone to get the screen with the lead pointing to iTunes (Hold down lock button on top)
    Plug iPhone in when this image of Lead/iTunes showing
    Start iTunes
    iTunes recognised iPhone in Recovery mode, offered to restore
    Clicked Restore, it unpacked then tried to run
    iPhone flashed then went to black screen, eventually iTunes gave the dreaded 1604 error.
    I then unplugged iPhone, but instead of resetting it again (which I've tried about 20 times already), I left it with black screen (although black, screen is definately on as not totally pitch black).
    Shut down iTunes
    Plugged phone back in (Still with black screen)
    Started iTunes, again noticed recovery mode, pressed Recover
    The black screen then popped in to life and had a small recovery icon at the bottom in the middle and the restore worked perfectly!!!
