Restore iPhone 3gs Recovery mode 1015 failed

I have an iPhone 3G, bought when it was marketed in Australia. It was sold as unlocked network, I discovered a year or later when he suffered an iOS update, means that it was jailbroken. With the network lock in place and the prospect of my partner do not have a functional phone the next day, the jailbreak process again to operate the back on the network. The process was a success, and the phone has been kept out iOS updates more by fear to make the phone unusable again.

But software eventually became too large for the phone and he entered retirement.

Now we must once again, but for someone else and the architecture of phone iOS them would be nice, and they haven't needed to edge cutting.

According to the riches of the internet, the phone can be restored from the recovery mode, which is the State I found it trying to get it back in service, plugging it into iTunes and by performing a restore. The restore process fails however.

Occur in the following steps, as listed on iTunes.

Restore iPhone software: iTunes progress bar ends. iPhone progress bar, about 1/3

Check the iPhone software: iTunes progress bar ends. iPhone progress bar, about 3/5

Restore iPhone Firmware: iTunes progress bar ends. iPhone progress bar, about 2/3

Check iPhone Firmware: error 1015. iPhone goes back to recovery mode.

I suspect that he has problems with the restoration of the firmware.

So are the relevant issues;

1. the iPhone 3 G can be recovered in a usable state?

2. even if it is recovered, the locking system can be removed?

Error 1015 is a result of jailbreaking the device in the past. If the connection in recovery mode and install the firmware do not work, the jailbreak done the phone useless, sorry.

Error: 1015. You can also see the message "the requested resource is not found."

These errors may appear if one of the situations below are fulfilled:

  • Your version of iTunes is obsolete. Download the latest version of iTunes, and then try to update or restore again.
  • Your device has a beta version of the iOS.
  • You try to install an older version of iOS (decommissioning).
  • Your device includes unauthorized changes in iOS, also known as "jailbreaking."

Use the recovery mode to restore your device to the latest version of iOS.

Only the provider that the phone had been locked can unlock the device, if it is an option, not the carrier has offered to unlocking the device back at the time of the 3G.

  • Recovery of 6 + failing IPhone in DFU Mode and

    Hi all

    I am currently trying to save an IPhone 6 Plus one of my friends started to have problems with. The screen has started having white lines through it he went ahead and replace the screen. Which corrects this problem, but the phone is now in a recovery mode loop. I can activate it without a string attached, and the phone will go directly into recovery mode without me touching a button. I tried restoring with the DFU mode and have gotten stuck on "Waiting for IPhone" and eventually the screen will fade out, left black as if it was in DFU mode, doing nothing. I'd take just in the Apple, but the guy certainly cancelled any warranty that was on it when it opened. Yes, I searched through MANY messages from the previous forum. Also, some additional information is that he never has he fell in the water, or he fell badly at all.

    Errors, I received:

    3014

    I tried actually make the DFU without the sensor plugged just to rule out the possibility that the material error so I don't know what could happen. In regular recovery mode, it will be in "waiting for iPhone" as the DFU but mode will then visit the white Apple screen with no progress bar and crashed with a red screen. It fails.

    One thing I have not tried but he's trying to do the recovery on a different computer. I intend trying today, but I thought I would post when even to see if anyone else has had this exact question before saying to the phone died, its really nice shape. Also I know many people have much more knowledge about what I'm doing. Thanks to you all!

    This article contains also some troubleshooting error 3014:

    If you see error 3194, error 17, or "this device is not eligible for the requested build" in iTunes - Apple Support

    If your friend has replaced the screen itself or let a 3rd party repair shop to do this, the problem could also be hardware related.

    But because the 3rd party involved, Apple will not solve this problem for you, according to Apple, users or another Apple repair service are not supposed to open the device. If they do, Apple will not provide service for this device more.

  • iPhone 4 crashed, has entered into recovery mode and don't update or restore (error 4013)

    Hi all

    So, the other day, while watching a YouTube video, my iPhone 4 became unresponsive and turns off. Since then, he has been slain in recovery mode, only showing the "connect to iTunes screen.

    iTunes gives me two options: update or restore. As I wanted to save my data (I have been so sloppy as to not have backed up the device for about a year!) I tried to update a bunch of times. However, it keeps me gives error 4013. Then, having given up this possibility, I also tried to restore the device several times, but unfortunately exactly the same phenomenon occurs.

    What happens is: iTunes downloads and extract the software, says "waiting for iPhone" for a few seconds, then it said "Preparing iPhone software update" because I think little about exactly 15 minutes. Then he said "Waiting for iPhone" still for a few seconds, after which it gives me error 4013.

    My guess is the iPhone automatically leaves the recovery mode so that it gives me this error because after 15 minutes and restarts alone, leaving iTunes to "think" that there is some kind of connection problem or do not recognize the device as being the same when it turns off and turns back on after 15 minutes. If this is the case, perhaps restarting interrupts the update/restore process. Or maybe just crashes in this state of preparation for 15 minutes because he is unable to do what he needs because of a sort of damaging the material.

    What I've tried so far:

    -Update iTunes to the latest version (12.2.2)

    -Updated the software on my Mac (although I must say that it is an old MacBook with OS X 10.7.5; I don't know if it's any factor here)

    -Restarting my computer

    -Switch to the other USB port

    -Using another USB cable (although the one alternative that I have is not in very good condition)

    -Try on a friend's computer (a much newer MacBook; I don't know what operating system well)

    -Force the device to restart a package of time (now the power and the home buttons)

    -A few third-party applications that claim to be able to get the iPhone out of recovery mode

    Any of you have ideas, ideas or suggestions on what is the cause and how can I get my phone back to life again? Recover my data would be obviously ideal, but I would also be very happy with just equipped with a device of work once again. I know it's an obsolete phone but it has always worked well.

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Anyone? I could really use some help. Thank you!

  • My iPhone 5 c is stuck in recovery mode

    I have updated to iOS 2 10 days ago, and today I was listening to music on my phone, when all of a sudden it turned off and the Apple logo came. I thought that if I waited a few minutes, it will restart but it didn't. I then tried to reload, but still he wouldn't do anything. I looked on the internet what to do and did exactly as he told me: I have it plugged into my laptop with a port USB. I pressed the lock and the "home" button and then release the lock. iTunes came on my computer screen laptop and said he found my device in recovery mode. I tried to restore it had worked and my phone had turned his back I started setting up and after connecting to WiFi he started to connect to iTunes. I don't know what happened after that, as long as my phone is turned off suddenly. I went through the process of restoring it again, to see what it kept disconnecting after the software update. I tried several times but the Apple logo keeps appearing on screen and nothing happens.

    I risked losing all my data that I have not backe

  • iPhone stuck in recovery mode 5 c

    Hi all

    I'm not native English and my grammar isn't the best, so if you do not understand something I posted, just ask and I try to be more specific.

    I have the problem that my iPhone 5 c is stuck in recovery mode and I have so far failed.

    The problem started with iOS 9.3.3. In the aftermath of the update my iPhone crashed with the screen flickering and restarted every 1-2 minutes. Then I installed the iPhone as a new iPhone and it was good for a few days and then it happened.

    Then comes the 9.3.4 iOS update. The update worked for a day and then all of a sudden my iPhone has not found any connection to my mobile operator. WLAN and bluetooth still worked.

    Then I tried to restore my iPhone again. First of all everything went well and the update was successful, but the same day, the flicker of the screen and restarts every 1-2 minutes came back.

    I once again tried to restore my iPhone, but this time it did not work. First of all, I got error 9 several times.

    These days I get only error 4013 and I can't get the iPhone out of recovery mode. When I try to launch it to the of in the mode of recovery and all the ways to get out of her failed.

    When I try to retrieve it with iTunes, it extracted the software, then the iPhone restarts until I see the apple logo and the "busy" - circle appears. Then the whole screen fades away in the dark, as if he would run out of power, but leaves immediately in recovery mode where I see the iTunes logo and the cable with plug.

    Here's what I did:

    -Hold the home button and the Start button / stop in any combination: he restarts, but returned in recovery mode and error 4013 in iTunes.

    -Via another USB port: same result, error 4013 in iTunes.

    -Tried it on another computer (Win 10) with fresh install iTunes. Here, I got error 21 once and 4013 the second try.

    -check the URL in the file host

    -J' tried all methods, I found on the internet and in youtube videos in this community.

    I bought the iPhone end of 2013, that is guaranteed is not in effect. Ever, the iPhone fell down or has been damaged in any way. And it is not jailbroken.

    So I have a few questions:

    1. is this a software problem or it could also be a hardware problem?

    2. do I can install iOS 10, it will overwrite the current state and install it?

    3. If it is a problem that is caused by a defective software update, apple will repair for free? Or will contact free support in this case?

    4. someone an idea that a repair is going to cost me?

    Hello

    Make sure that you have followed all the steps related to error code 4013 and code error 21, notably by ensuring that you are using a real lightning Apple USB cable (or the equivalent of third-party certified IFM):

    And also that you follow the correct process:

    If the problem persists then, I suggest you contact Apple technical support or make a Genius Bar reservation for assistance, including to have checked whether iPhone recommended by Apple:

  • iPhone stuck on recovery mode.

    Alright. So I have an iPhone 5s, I bought it June 16. What makes almost 3 months.
    I bought then returned, but there has never been any problem.
    He obtained weat like 2 months ago, but after a night that I put it in rice, it was perfect again!

    A few days ago it started having problems. First, the home button did not work. I restarted my iphone and it worked. a few hours later, I had the same problem. I rebooted, nothing happened, so I just turned it off one night and it worked again. Now, today. It has stopped working. Nothing is done, however, footprint does not work.
    Now, I used the EasyTouch or how it's not called. The thing is, after a few hours, it got stuck on recovery mode. He's after a few hours. It happened a few times, and now it won't go down. It wont let me update and I can't lose all my data! I have not saved. Never. I NEVER even thought that something might happen to her. I always keep it if course, I don't know what to do. If I have to go somewhere to fix it, I'll have to save for a few months. Which means that I won't have a phone. I need REALLY help and fast! Please, I beg you!
    Thanks, Tamar

    If it is in recovery mode (showing the screen USB cable and iTunes logo), then your data has already been lost. Your only option is to restore the iOS through iTunes.

  • Updated my iPad off in recovery mode, now I can't restore

    I turned off my computer so I connected to iTunes. He gave me the warning saying that it cannot connect to it until I unlock it, but of course, I just forgot my password (and I remember now but it's too late). Then I put in recovery mode and update. After the update that it started at a black screen saying "iPad is disabled, connect to iTunes," but the thing is that I can not. Whenever I have connect my computer, iTunes gives me just the normal warning of him being disabled, but nothing else. He brings me to the screen where it asks me to put up-to-date or to recover more. What can I do? Thank you!

    BTW I've never synced with iTunes on my computer.
