    (from iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting)
    If not, try to move or delete the IPSW file and let iTunes download it again.
    Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw)
    iTunes uses "ipsw" files to restore your device. If those  files  are unusable, then try deleting them, renaming them, or moving the file  to a different directory. This will cause  iTunes to  download a new copy of the IPSW.    When a restore issue is specific to a  user, it is likely due to an unusable .ipsw file. If removing the .ipsw file does not resolve a user-specific restore issue, then the issue is caused by other user-specific security software settings or iTunes preferences. Creating a new user  will also cause new .ipsw restore files to be downloaded in the new  user. You can find the ".ipsw" files in these locations:
    Mac OS X
    iPhone
    ~/Library/iTunes/iPhone Software Updates
    iPad
    ~/Library/iTunes/iPad Software Updates
    iPod touch

    This error means that your phone was hacked to be unlocked. The hack destroyed the main board. You will need to speak to the developer of the hack, or use google, for a resolution. But your phone is bricked now and will not recover.

    Hi ratcat14!
    I have an article that can help you troubleshoot this issue:
    Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
    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.
    Common errors: 1, 10-47, 1002, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1000-1020.
    Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!
