Hello sumon34,


Thanks for following up with us. We appreciate you trying the troubleshooting steps in the resource we shared previously. The error 3002 you are experiencing may be caused by network settings. If possible, you can try using a different network connection or another computer with iTunes to restore the device.


If you need additional assistance, you can also contact the Apple Support team directly here: Contact Apple Support


We hope this helps!
