Hi all

Perhaps a little stupid but i have just upgraded my phone (or tried at least) to OS4 from an old version jailbreak version (not too worries about having a jailbroken phone at present). Any way it did the back up etc but failed.

Heres the situation i have

when i turn the phone on it briefly shows the aple logo and then just displays the usb picture. when i plug it in it pops up itunes is n recovery mode you must restore. when i click restore it comes up preparing iphone for restore, this occurs for some time and then i ge a ms box saying the iphone could not be restored. an unknown error occured (2003)


I would be greatful of some much needed advice on how to get my phone up and running again

Exact same issue I'm having. My laptop asks me if I'd like to install "Apple Mobile Device Recovery Mode", but then says it can't install it because the wizard can't find the necessary software.

I'm in the loop also, just joining into this thread in hopes of finding the solution. I am sure somebody here will help, if I figure out how to get out of this loop, I will post here & you guy's do the same, K! PEACE, =)

I will do this tonight & report back with success or failure asap! Until then my iPhone has displayed the "RED DEAD BATTERY" screen a few times in the past 2 or 3 days I've been in this loop, is it charging in the recovery mode loop? OR should i Charge it in "DFU" mode? Also should I charge it in wall charger or PC's usb port? Lastly, I have DFU'd and reset a bunch of times attempting to get out of the loop. If iRecovery work's to get me out will it be still JB'd with Spirit like before or will I be restoring & re-JB'ing it?
