I, like many others, kept getting "An internal error occurred" when trying to upgrade my iPhone 4 to iOS 5. Foolishly, I continued to hit the Update button and try again. It eventually led to my iPhone being in recovery mode. I am now unable to restore the phone due to the ongoing issues with Apple's servers and unable to use the phone because the failed upgrade process placed the phone in recovery mode.
Yup, me too 😠
Just like me...
Same thing happened to me, how to correct this?
My iPhone is also bricked. Plugged into iTunes (fully updated) and downloaded iOS 5. Began installing and errored out. Lost everything. iPhone now stuck in Recovery Mode and won't update to iOS 5.
Trying on a Windows 7 machine now...
Same thing here ... Tried a number of times to get the update to work, but kept getting 3004 errors. Now every time I try to do the upgrade, I get past the software install, but it fails at the firmware upgrade. Phone now permanently in "Recovery Mode".
Really stuffed my day as I no longer have a phone ...
Would really love to know how to solve this ... Worst Apple Update ever for me ...
Same thing happened to me! Come on Apple!!!
Same here, fails at updating firmware, anyone else fail here and get error 3004?
Me too. Now I don't have a working phone. Assuming I'll have to wait to restore until Apple servers are available. Any other way around this so I can make phone calls? Didn't expect this from Apple.

I am having the same issue. This is embarassing for Apple.
Same issue for me too!! Thanks Apple! Maybe they should have rolled out the update and not clogged the tubes up with iPads and ipods.
This is abslolutely atrocious - did it not occur to Apple that there might be a very substantial demand for IOS5 from the start? I'm stuck in restore, do not have a functioning phone, and I am away from the office all day tomorrow. Completely useless!
Same thing but with my iPad
Need Help! When i try to plug it on iTunes
He said me that he can connect to this iPhone ( but it's an iPad )
Me too! This is so annoying! I'm on call too and loosing money. Seriously Apple get your act together! This is abysmal!!!
I had this same problem.... kept trying and it finally went through ... currently restoring from my last backup *fingers crossed*
iOS 5 Upgrade Bricked My iPhone 4 (Stuck in Recovery Mode)
