Error 0xE8000004 when trying activate iPhone 4 (GSM)

Hi there.

Two days ago I restore 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 wifi connection because asks me directly connect to iTunes and after displaying the error is not active and does not let me do anything.
I have restored my iPhone 4 from several PCs and always I get the same error when trying to activate it.
Can anyone help me please?

For several days some iPhone 4 users in Spain are having this error when trying to activate or restore factory our iPhone 4 (iPhone 4 Only)


Regards


Sorry for my english.

Fala colarj,

Ontem atualizei o ios para o 7.1.2 e me aparecia este erro, mas eventualmente consegui ativar (sério, não sei como. mas funcionou), só aí percebi um problema no wifi, Então, tive a infeliz idéia de restaurar novamente e a partir ***, não consegui mais. ;(
Caso consiga realizar o downgrade ou encontrar a solução, compartilhe conosco aqui no fórum. Valeu!


Hi colarj,

Yesterday updated the ios to 7.1.2 and appeared to me this error, but eventually managed to turn (seriously , do not know how . But it worked ) , only then I realized a problem in wifi, then, so I had the unfortunate idea of restoring again, so I could no longer update . ; (

If you can perform the downgrade or find the solution , please share here on the forum . Thanks !

I have the same Issue with an Iphone 4 GSM), I was updating to IOS 7.1.2 and Error appear, i patiently deal with it until Monday that i was able to finally go through the whole process and got the Iphone working, but i realize the WiFi and Bluetooth was grayed out, I attempt to restore as it is requested on several tutorials and i ended up in the same situation again. Definitively it´s a apple server issue, since i was doing it in the same computer, same cable, same USB port, same Internet connection almost 5 times per day for 2 weeks, before i get the Iphone activated.
