Error 9 is described here as the device losing its connection. Have you tried using a different connector?

Adam Hintz,

tried 2 different usb cables 2 different computers even changed the usb dock connector at first it gave error 1611 tried restore again started coming up with error 9 again. could it be a faulty dock connector flex?

Kam,

I can definately say its not the dock connector flex tried 2 brand new 1's still error 9. Am guessing it might be the ic's even tried a brand new battery still same. anyone have any ideas will be appreciated thank you

Kam,

I think that it might be a problem with the port on the ipad itself.

The iPad in my experience is very picky about what cables it will restore with. Error 9 is almost always related to the cable, NOT the dock connector/flex cable. Use the official Apple cable if you still have it, or borrow one from a friend.

If that doesn't work, it might also have something to do with the IPSW you are trying to restore with. Try using a different IPSW or using redsn0w to boot pwned dfu mode and restore like that. It could be this because error 9 can be related to the ramdisk kernel rejecting the ASR because it is not signed properly, thus breaking the connection with the device and causing error 9.
