The operative word here is QUICKLY; and try it a couple of times, the timing is a little tricky. If done correctly this will always work unless the phone has a hardware problem.

In addition to the above, some background and some suggestions from Apple:
Do you have VPN on your computer? If so, turn it off. And update iTunes to the latest version.
Other things to try: Disable your antivirus, unplug all other USB devices except for mouse and keyboard if a desktop, try a different cable.

1109 is usually connectivity, not device.
Force the device into DFU, and try again.
If not, contact Apple Support.
