Device won't turn on, won't restore and won't update [4013 error]
I was using my IPad 5 (Wi-fi) as usual and it suddenly froze and turned off, my battery was on 80% and all seemed normal, I have always used original charging cable and my only drawback is that I never really updated it, although I have tried recently but it didn’t work.
The IPad won’t turn on and when I try to turn it on the apple logo appears and shortly after it turns black again. I have been able to put it in recovery mode.
After the problem, I rushed to connect it to itunes. Itunes detects it and is able to grab the serial number and some device information, also suggests me to update it or restore. When trying to update it fails right after the part where itunes extracts the data, the same thing happens when trying to restore. It’s like the computer stops detecting the IPad, and stays on the “Waiting for IPad” part.
After trying multiple times, with different cables, all original, different PC ports, and even a different PC, nothing seems to work. Because of that, I naturally went to a repair shop and he initially said that some of the connectors could be oxidated on the charging port, but it didn’t work. He is now proceeding to diagnoses the connector it self and may swap it with a new one, but I am not confident on this guy.
Does someone have any idea of what it could be and how to fix it?
Is this a good question?
