Corrupt download when trying to reset iPhone 12

We tried transferring to a iPhone 12 from an iPhone 7 and it didn’t fully transfer so we did a hard reset but with about 2 min left on the recovery and update screen it keeps giving us “the software for the iPhone was corrupted during download. There is no iso update to delete

iPhone 15

Restore iPhone X seems to be stuck at downloading software I have an iPhone X in recovery mode connected to my MacBook and I attempted to do the update process which had failed so I then done the restore process which it shows that it is downloading software for the restore process to my MacBook but then shuts down and does nothing on my MacBook or my iPhone X. What do I need to do. This all began when the iPhone X was going through a software update and never turned back on. It just shows and flashes the apple logo. We have done the hard reset as well. I would like to get this iPhone X fixed because it’s not an old phone and we would really like to use it for a backup phone in case something happens to any of our iPhone 13’s that we have now. What would the next process be if the restore process doesn’t complete?

hmmm... That tends to indicate a network problem.

Disable or completely remove any 3rd party anti-virus, firewall, and VPN software from the computer and try it again.

Try plugging it into your computer and restoring iOS.

We are doing that currently. That is when it gives us this message. Any other ideas?
