I do most certainly apologise. Probably mixed up the 47 code related to your issue with the other one that I mentioned in the reply.


The real issue is a problem with the IMEI. You still need to unfortunately get a new device for it.


Again I apologise for mistakenly criticising you. I wish you the best for the new phone.

Oh dear... You may have had previous repairs to your device from a third-party retailer. The parts used for the repairs could have been counterfeit and some may not be Genuine Apple OEM parts.


Apple will NOT fix the issue! I repeat Apple will NOT fix the issue! Go back to the third-party repair stores you had your device repaired at and see if they can resolve the issue. And if not, recycle your device with a phone and tablet recycle store or online provider and buy a new device.


But if you have had AppleCare+ on your device, Apple may be able to offer a replacement but I’m unsure if they will as of the issue. Just go to an Apple store and see if it can be replaced. This applies to other insurance installed for the device.


If you do not have AppleCare+ on your device, then sorry, there is way to fix the issue if the third-party repair stores you went to couldn’t fix the issue. From that point your device is permanently dead. Period. The only way out is to Buy a new one. You took a risk to repair the device at a store with counterfeit or non genuine Apple OEM parts And that risk smashed into pieces.
