"The iPhone “iphone” could not be restored because the firmware file was corrupt". iOS update and restore errors doesn't have this prompt and I can't fix it. Background info, I have an iPhone XR if that matters. I have done it all, I have read multiple pages and I keep getting "The iPhone “iphone” could not be restored because the firmware file was corrupt". I have read through the article iOS update and restore errors, there's no mention of the firmware file being corrupt and what to do. Any help would be appreciated. Background info, I have an iPhone XR if that matters.

If you are by chance using a current supported device like an iPhone 6s or newer then I recommend checking these out;

Is your signature correct in that you are asking about an iPhone 3GS? A phone released in 2009?

I wouldn't have a clue what to advise on a phone that is now so old it pretty much belongs in a museum, to be honest. It's no longer supported, has an iOS version so out of date, that the vast majority of apps won't even run on the device.
