IPhone 4s won't restore? Error 1?
So for some reason, my iPhone 4s won't turn on properly. Just to let you know, this a friggin' week old iPhone that I bought through Fido - no jail breaking or any of that stuff.
When I try to turn it on it has a picture of the usb telling me to connect to itunes. When I connect the phone to itunes it says iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes.
When I try to restore it, it'll go about 75% of the way through the restore and say, "The iPhone "iPhone' could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1)."
I get this notification no matter what I do. I've tried doing the whole DFU mode, switching USB ports, updating my computer and my iTunes but nothing is working for me.
Anyone have any idea what to do? Or should I just book a Genius Bar appointment? What do they actually do about it?
I get this error usually when I'm trying to downgrade to an earlier software version. If that's not the case I would take it back to Apple just to avoid future problems since you are under factory warranty. Was it swapped out to replace another phone recently? If so you might have a refurbished unit with some issues. You can always try the Tiny Umbrella tool. Download link at the site below.
