Error 1013 when restore iPhone 4 to IOS 4.2.1 Official

Hi here's to overcome error 1013 when you restoring iPhone 4 using IOS 4.2.1 Official.

Ok, today I've been several times encountering error 1013 when I restore my iPhone 4 to IOS 4.2.1 official from iTunes :-(.

I've tried restore mode (itunes + usb icon in my iPhone) and also DFU Mode, still no result.....then I just remember that I've done some jailbreaking process in my laptop with my 3GS and guess what the host file that reside in this folder: C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc still use the saurik's server. So I modify the file from this:

74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com into this: #74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com


save the file and restart my laptop, and I restore it again and voila!!! it works!! my iPhone 4 successfully restored to IOS 4.2.1 official :-).

This is new I think, usually using 3GS i don't need to change the hosts file and it is successfully restored to official IOS. Well i think this is a new filter that apple use in their new iDevices.

G'lak and have a try!!

  1. If your iPhone stuck on Apple logo, you can try to hard reset your iPhone. If everything goes fine, your iPhone returns to normal.But if this problem can't be solved, you need to use a professional software to fix the problem.


    Fix iPhone stuck on Apple logo issue via force restart, DFU mode, iOS System Recovery.

    You know when your iPhone turn on, it need everything goes fine inside it and then you can use it.
