iphone 5 16 GB.
As my iphone 5 constantly showed "searching" instead of connecting to the cell phone network and didn't see the SIM card I tried to fix trying many different things. Then I tried to have a full reset, but I couldn't do because I forgot the restriction password.
Then I read somewhere that I could reset it from find my iphone and reset from outside. Then it started to Show lost telephone message.
I couldn't reactivate it directly from the iphone, tried on itunes it failed several times.
It starts installing firmware as it shows on iphone, but then fails with a message saying iphone could not be updated. An unknow error occured (47)
There is no explanation when you search what this error is.
It has not been possible to restore this telephone.
While I was trying to fix a chronic "searching" problem that apple phones can have due software problems, I lost the phone completely.
It look like this is a bug that hasn't been fixed despite all the updates of ios.
Any expert ideas?
iPhone 5, iOS 8.4.1
