You might try a full DFU restore, if it’s just a software error that will take care of it. You will need a PC with iTunes or 3UTools installed and an original or Mfi certified lightning cable that can handle data transfers correctly.

Did the loading bar start restoring the phone?

If not this is a connection issue with the computer. Try restoring at least two more times and see how that goes.

Sometimes I have to use another computer to restore certain models of phones which is silly.
