IPhone :: 3GS Restore Freezing With No Error
Jun 27, 2010
I'm trying to restore my 3GS so I can eventually sell it, but it's not wanting to.When I try to restore through iTunes, it freezes at "Restoring iPhone software", and the phone just shows the Apple logo with a progress bar that's stuck.
I rebooted my Macbook, reinstalled iTunes, did a hard reset on the phone, tried it from DFU mode, and I don't know what else to try.It had the unjailbroken 4.0GM installed on it if that makes any difference.

My original problem was that every time I took a picture the camera app would close automatically and bring me to my homescreen and that when i tried to open my camera roll the same thing would happen. I had turned my phone on and off several times to no avail and finally got around to restoring it. It has restored and on itunes, it asks if i want to restore it to factory settings or from a previous backup, i chose from a previous back up and now my iphone shows a black screen with the apple logo and the little bar underneath signifying how much has been restored from my backup... no error messages are coming up but it has been frozen/stuck in the same spot for 20 mins.I dont know if I'm just being impatient or if it is freezing up.I have tried to completely restart the restore but it just continues to freeze up in the exact same spot.I havent tried to restore it to factory settings as i would like to keep my contacts and photos if at all possible...

Two days ago my phone kept disconnecting from my home wifi, leaving me to use 4G without noticing most of the time. It caught my attention the next day and I tried everything the Apple troubleshoot page says for this issue and was left unable to connect to my wifi, period. I had no choice but to restore my phone.Â
Restoring it from backup didn't fix the issue, so I restored again as a new phone. Not only can I not get to my wifi tab, the Settings app in particular keeps freezing as well as others. I am unable to click anything, not even to go to the home screen or shut it off from the top until one minute passes and it turns off on its own. Then sometimes I can't turn it back on, and I have to reboot it because the whole screen is black.Â
Is there any reason my phone is suddenly freezing so much after a complete restore? Is there anything I can do about my wifi? I thought anything that was causing the defects would be wiped but now I have more problems than I started with. Â

the last time my battery drained and upon recharging and restarting the phone loaded normally to the homescreen. But when I tried entered the password, it froze. After sometime it simply went white and displayed 'App Error 523'. I tried hard restarting it several times but to no avail.This has happening several times before, however all those times upon receiving a call the phone started working fine. That didn't work this time either.

I was updating to newest beta frimware and during the restore I got this error "Iphone can not be restored an unknown error occurred (37)." I tried to give the phone a hard reset but I have not been able to get the phone to respond. I also tried the same steps used to put the phone into DFU mode to see if it would restart and no change. I am not really sure what to do here, any tips would help.

So I saw I had an update the other night so I decided to download it. After I thought it was through, I check my phone and it says plug into iTunes. I didn't think anything of it so I plug it in. An alert saying my iPhone is in recovery mode. So I do the whole restore thing and it doesn't work. It gets about 3/4 of the way done then says error 29. I have tried it many times, as well as updating my iTunes and different cables even restarting my computer. Is there anything else that I can do?

I got the device on craigslist and it worked, I tried to restore and it gave me this error and it won't let me restore. Not sure if it was ever Jail broken in the past. Last I looked at the about info, it said version 3.1.3, I think. I tried to restore it like 6 times already. I tried researching it but I can only find solutions for 3G, does anyone know if this can be fixed for iPhone 3Gs for good where I can restore future updates.

There is this 2G iPhone that is (almost?) bricked.
As far as I know, the phone did work until recently, was not dropped, but suddenly got stuck at this screen:
The owner is not computer savvy, and is unsure whether the firmware has been updated (by chance or not).
Right now the phone is stuck at the "Restore needed" screen.
What have I done so far:
Put it in DFU, iTunes finds is, and tells me it needs to be restored;
I have downloaded the 1.1.4, 2.2, and 3.1.2 firmwares for the 2G;
I have tried to SHIFT+RESTORE many times, and every single time it ends up giving me error 23.
I tried all of the above-mentioned firmwares, have tried with iTunes 9.0.3, 8.2 and 7.5 MANY times -
with the same result: Error 23.
There is something interesting:
when I tap the "i" on the screen, it shows a windows that says: IMEI: Unknown, and ICCID: Unknown
I have searched online for a whole day now, and people say that this is related to a hardware problem with the modem;
others said that it could be fixed by flashing w/ older firmware and older iTunes version - both of which I have tried.
So bottom line is that after all I have tried I am still nowhere.
And ideas what else I could try?
