iTunes error code 2015 during iPhone 4 restore

Hi,

I have an iPhone 4 which bootloops and have been trying to restore or update it via itunes. I have disassembled it to replace the screen so warranty is out of the question(it’s “obsolete” anyway). I plug the phone into my pc whilst holding down the home button and the itunes/lightning logo shows up on the iphone and itunes detects it. I then get the option to upgrade or restore and I click restore. The bar at the top says ‘Extracting Software’ however after that, I hear the device being ejected then reconnected, the phone reboots and I get ‘Unknown error 2015’. Does anyone have a possible solution?

Thanks

Thanks but I realised all I did was accidentally disconnect the battery so it rebooted whenever the usb power was disconnected.

Boot loop and error 2015 is a hardware failure issue. iPhones do a health checkup during the booting process, and if there is a damaged part somewhere, you will get a boot loop and restore errors. This error usually revolves around front camera/speaker flex cable or the rear camera. But that is just the majority of failures for this issue. Have you checked for any damaged parts during the screen replacement?

Thanks toreskey. I was starting to assume somethings is damaged inside as I also looked at the log files and system information and assumed there is a lot of info missing from the device.

Are you or anyone aware of what step I should take next in discovering what part might need replacing? The phone looks absolutely perfect. History: It was found on a fishing boat - so I am assuming water damage. In one of the log files it look like apple checked the battery and it said fully charged. I can send log files if helpful. Thanks
