Jul 11, 2010 9:05 AM in response to aussiby MiladAslaner,Did you check if anti virus and firewall is disabled? I disabled at my sisters computer Kaspersky and Zone Alarm and after it everything worked fine. -
Jul 11, 2010 11:20 AM in response to MiladAslanerby Nacho Casas,I did all that but still gives me the same error, thanks for your answer! .. : ( -
Jul 13, 2010 6:43 AM in response to Nacho Casasby Magdalena Fernandez Prantl,Believe me. Having a new phone doesn't guarantee that the battery is good. My Iphone 3GS that I bought in april has been having battery problems since day one. I suggest you runt to whoever sold you the phone and claim the warranty for an exchange.
Apple, are you listening?!?!?!?! -
Jul 13, 2010 12:36 PM in response to Magdalena Fernandez Prantlby Nacho Casas,iRecovery not fix the error but the iphone out of the loop, I'm from Argentina, and to update the 3gs to ios4, get the same results....
NOT TO UPGRADE 3GS TO IOS4 -
Jul 15, 2010 2:18 PM in response to Nacho Casasby AxelvH,4.01 did not fix the "error 29" issue... disappointing Apple!! -
Jul 15, 2010 4:46 PM in response to AxelvHby jjvee,I can confirm the above. Error 29 still hit my phone when upgrading to 4.0.1
I put part of the log in the other error 29 thread, but basically it failed after trying to update the gas gauge, which is indeed to do with the battery.
Apple, sort this out please. Either let us go back to 3.1.3, or fix the way it checks the battery in the upcoming software update. -
Jul 17, 2010 6:09 PM in response to aussiby va2kgt,I have a 3gs with 4.0 and rebooting every 5 minutes. It seems there may be 3 viable solutions:
1. Downgrade to 3.1.3 or earlier if you have your SHSH blobs saved.
2. Replace your battery with an OEM battery.
3. ...This is the one I'm most interested in...restore your phone to 3.1.3 from a previous backup? Is this possible if you dont have your 3.1.3 SHSH blobs saved? Can I take my phone to a friend who has a 3GS 3.1.3 backup file and restore my phone to his settings? -
Jul 18, 2010 9:37 AM in response to mrangeloby edgejedi,Ive tried everything with my bricked 3GS, opening port 80 and 443, new cables, different PCs, clean versions of iTunes, trying the restore at less busy times of the day etc, etc.
Managed to restore it to factory settings once, but when I then tried to restore the last back up it just bricked up again.
Has anyone been into an Apple store with a 3GS - what is the outcome please? I know they are readily swapping iphone 4s, but not heard anything about 3GS problems.
I know I bought into something a little more complicated than the average phone, but I didnt expect to have to turn myself into a computer programmer lololol
These are some of what look like the errors from the restore attempt details - not sure if anyone can decipher them please?

Jul 21, 2010 10:08 PM in response to aussiby criddar,Me again. After finally getting my iPhone stable after the iOS error 29 BS, I can confirm that updating to 4.01 just re-bricks it. Not sure if I want to endure fixing it again and never ever ever ever update again, or just give Steve MF-ing Jobs and his foray into half-a**ed OS-land more money for an iPhone 4.
Or... it's tempting to ditch AT&T's bad service and go Android...hmmm... -
Jul 22, 2010 2:24 PM in response to Nacho Casasby edgejedi,Took my 3GS 32gb with error 29 into my local apple store. Battery failed to hold a charge and stuck in recurring recovery cycle. Genius knew exactly what 29 is. 3 mins later be was pulling out a refurb model to give me an exchange. I now have a refurbed and fully tested phone with 4.0.1 on it. Battery holding great and this version works well for me. Relief!!!! My suggestion is get to your local ape store!!! Ps I tried every suggestion in this thread and none worked fully. -
Jul 26, 2010 2:57 PM in response to criddarby mikepote,Yup, I had to try 4.0.1, endured endless error 29's and eventually managed to get it to work (I dont know how)...
It WAS PERFECT, I could actually use the phone again and not have it restart every minute... Then I plugged it into my pc at work which did some syncing behind my back with the old data, aaaaaand hello unusable OS.
So now I'm stuck back in the Restore - Error 29 - Repeat loop.
Moral of the story: If you manage to get it working with a clean install, DONT plug it into any of your old iTunes systems, except the one you restored it from. -
Jul 27, 2010 10:53 AM in response to aussiby Magdalena Fernandez Prantl,It's a clear bug that Apple hasn't acknowledged. They released 4.0.1 and they didn't even think of checking the forums to include a fix.. It must be some stupid little number somewhere in the code that keeps a phone reporting inaccurate battery levels rebooting itself. 3.1.2 did something similar sometimes, so they released 3.1.3 in the first place. With 4.0 the bug was reintroduced. Let's only hope they fix it sometime in the near future so we can upgrade… Meanwhile the only other option is replacing under warranty or paying for the repair. Shame on you Apple. -
Aug 12, 2010 9:54 PM in response to aussiby chikachika,If you've replaced the battery for a 3gs and it gets error 29 and restores every couple of minutes I know the reason! It is most likely that you have bought a 3g battery it will mess your phone up you haft to make sure its the one for 3gs some stores on ebay will say for 3g/3gs when its actually only for 3g. -
Aug 15, 2010 12:34 AM in response to aussiby fixmyphoneplz,i havent had this issue myself but i was about to purchase a broken 3gs with the fault from what i can see you should be able to use a program called "umbrella" to boot it out of recovery mode... ive seen alot of mention of using irecovery but i havent been able to use that yet for some reason it wont run but from what i can see i think umbrella will help you all out -
Aug 23, 2010 12:09 AM in response to aussiby Thomas_Moore,I'm having the exact same error..... Iphone 3GS 32 Gig. Never been jailbroken.
I had OS 4.0.1 and never had any issues... (the phone is over a year old) OS 3 never gave me issues either.
Ever since I updated to OS 4.0.2 the other day my phone kept restarting every 4 minutes or so.
went to restore the phone and right at the end I get error 29 iphone cannot be restored.
