Question

Try to restore get a error 29

Hi. I was told by iFixit to try a new battery. I did, and my phone was recognized on iTunes to get restored. It got as far as the firmware update and then showed an error 29. What is it?

I tried the process about six times and always get the same error 29. Thanks for any help you can give me.


Answer

From what I've seen, error 29 is a logic board failure and is unrepairable, try restoring from iTunes, but you may be out of luck. The cost of a new logic board is also not worth it usually, and the repair is very difficult.
