Radio failure? Error 23 when restoring
I have two iphone 3GS on my work bench I just can't get working.
I'm thinking it's a logic board failure but as I have two at once I wanted to run it by the masses.
Hardware wise they all seem ok - screens power on, backlights etc - they're stuck in a restore loop but whatever I do when trying to restore (DFU mode or standard) I get error 23.
Looking at the iphone updater logs the last few lines for both read:
2013-04-11 17:26:11.000 iTunes[7654:22b13]: radio-error = 512
2013-04-11 17:26:11.000 iTunes[7654:22b13]: radio-error-string = 'Communication failure'
2013-04-11 17:26:11.000 iTunes[7654:22b13]: fatal recovery mode radio error
2013-04-11 17:26:11.000 iTunes[7654:22b13]: radio errors detected; stopping
2013-04-11 17:26:11.000 iTunes[7654:22e17]: iTunes: Restore error 23
To my recollection there's not a fix for this?
Am I right?
Thanks,
Steve
Is this a good question?
