iPhone 3gs stuck in recovery mode

I was using my iPhone last night when all of a sudden it shut down and went to the apple sign.


I have plugged it into itunes and tried to restore it but it keeps coming up with error 9 and couldn't be restored. I have tried it on different computers but i still can't get it to work.


Hope someone can help! 🙂

Error 9

This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.
