ipad2 6.1.3 stuck in recovery loop help!

Hi there, i recently tried upgrading my ipad 2 to the latest firmware, and somehow after the update it got stuck in a recovery loop. I have tried on multiple computers to restore it, i have tried restoring it in recovery mode and dfu mode as suggested by a friend but none work 😟. How do i get my ipad to work?

(dfu restore does not work i get the 1604 error and the ipad gets stuck on the apple logo, then it reboots back to connect to itunes screen)

iPad 2, iOS 6.1.3

Apple's suggestions on the 1604 error can be found here:

Perhaps that will help.

Regards.

So i went to see the apple genius and they said that it maybe a charger port issue. unfortunately apple wont fix ipads because of how they are designed and will only offer me a new ipad for £200 as mine is out of warranty. so for all those with the 1603/1604 error on 6.1.3 your basically screwed unless you have warranty
