That's pretty much what I did and sent it to him...thanks for the response Braddick. Just making sure it was something common and there wasn't an easier fix out there. Thanks again.

Updating To ios7 - ERROR CODE 9006

I never had jailbreak installed. Sent it to the guy clean and at the "iPhone" screen in IOS6. He is trying to update into IOS7 and now he's saying the whole phone is frozen...are you suggesting that maybe he tried to jailbreak it and screwed it up?

I'm not quite sure what this guy did tongue phone...

----------

Anyone know that if this guy put his info into the phone and started the update and it froze, can I take the phone back and have the Apple Store look at it or will they not be able to do anything because his info is in it?

I don't think it's your problem anymore... you sold him a working phone. You did your part of the deal. If he needs help, he can bring it to an Apple Store.

Thanks for the input.
