Error 0xE8000004 when trying activate iPhone 4 (GSM)

Hello everyone,

Anyone has found a solution?

Do you think with IOS 7.1.3 the problem be corrected? If so, when the output of the IOS is planned?

Thank you

I have the exact same problem!

iTunes appears to complete the restore but the phone will not connect to iTunes to complete the set up. The computer can detect the phone but it is being blocked somehow from getting through to iTunes.

Has anyone taken their phone to a genius bar etc?

Same problem iphone 4. Apple does not want to find solution

(1 week ago I update my iPhone 4 GSM from iTunes and when trying to activate it, I get the message (Error 0xE80000004).

I can not activate my iPhone 4 using cellular or wifi connection because iPhone asks me directly connect to iTunes.

I have restored my iPhone 4 from several PCs and always I get the same error when trying to activate it.

For several days many many iPhone 4 users are having this error when trying to update or restore to 7.1.2 .

I think iOS 7.1.2 disabled the Cellular ann wifi, and its a bug, and you must have to fix it.

Cause if the phone is not activated then its nothing but a peper weight.

Please, fix this bug and release iOS 7.1.3)

HI

I'M IN THE UK,SAME PROBLEM, AFTER NUMEROUS PHONE CALLS WITH NO JOY I FINALLY GOT THROUGH TO A DEPARTMENT WHO SEEMED TO WANT TO HELP(ALTHOUGH THEY HAVEN'T GOT BACK TO ME YET LIKE THEY SAID),HOWEVER THEY GAVE ME THIS NUMBER 00800 2775 2775(OPTION 3) EX.5058148,IF ENOUGH PEOPLE RING OR LEAVE MESSAGE MAYBE THEY WILL GET THEIR ACT TOGETHER AND SORT IT.

apple only thing that tells me is that my phone is damaged.

if we try to report all errors, not fix it.

Hi,

I don't think that your phones are damaged or anything else. I had the same issue and I managed to downgrade to iOS 6.x using 3rd party tools like iFaith and also iTunes 11.0.

However, I have my SHSH saved for version iOS 6.x. It's funny that I needed to use some hack tools to get my iphone working again.

Good luck to all, hope this issue will be solved soon!

If I can be of any help to someone, let me know!

Regards,

Mitko

You are not going to get a response from anyone at Apple here, this is a user to user forum.. What you do is take it into an Apple store or Apple Authorised Service Provider and have it examined.

Same problem here in Germany !

I called the german Apple support and they said I should trash it.

Я из Russia. Имеют те же проблемы. Потребность иметь Яблоко, чтобы выпустить новую версию (IOS 7.1.3) для решения проблемы: при попытке активировать iPhone 4 GSM через Itune, она не смогла с ошибкой 0xE8000004 . Я просто обновлен до IOS 7.1.2, но все еще ​​есть эта проблема после сброса настроек. Apple, пожалуйста, слушать и помочь.
