      Re: MacBook A2289 Restore Error

      See here for some ideas:

      https://discussions.apple.com/thread/253371441

      BTW - About to work on a similar case - what is the HOST you are using to run the Apple Configurator 2 tool ? Have not had a need to use it till now.

      Do you see the 'DFU' message once the TARGET is in DFU mode with the hotkey presses ?

          Water damaged MacBook Air A1932 AmrestoreErrorDomin Error-9 trying to restore with configurator
          by dbuergi
          Hi all,

          this Macbook was stuck at 5v and didn't start because of some water damage. I was able to clean everything and the board started. So i put everything back together and the Macbook seems to boot with 20v, 1,4A and 29W. So i decided a DFU recovery. At 50% of the system repair i get the error massage from the title. Display stays black and no Apple logo. Both repair and recovery don't work.
          Is there anything i can do?

          Macbook Pro DFU Restore Issues
          by Flasman90
          I have a 2020 Macbook Pro A2289 and after many attempts managed to get it into DFU mode, using my older 2017 A1706 Macbook Pro (Running Ventura 13.7.8). However, when attempting 'Restore', it fails at step 4 of 4, showing the following error:

          - "The operation couldn’t be completed. (AMRestoreErrorDomain error -1 - Failed to handle message type StatusMsg (Generic error)) [AMRestoreErrorDomain – 0xA (10)]
          - "The system cannot be restored on this device. Failed to create new state machine for restore [com.apple.MobileDevice.MobileRestore - 0xFB1 (4017)]

          I have a problem I'm hoping someone can help me with. I have an A2289 MacBook that had some liquid damage. After repairing any areas that had corrosion, I was able to get it to show 20v but only .01a on the multimeter. It was consistent on all ports, however I could not get the MacBook to go into DFU mode. I read that I should refllash U4770 and after grabbing the bin from this site I did just that. After soldering the chip back on the board, now I have DFU mode, but the thing is, it won't revive or restore, giving me the error that the device left the DFU state or something to that effect. The...

          Macbook Pro A2289 MXK62LL/A (661-14770) - No Startup
          by Flasman90
          Hi everyone - first time poster on here looking to embark on my first repair! Thank you in advance for any help!

          My Macbook only turns on when the charger is plugged in and only the trackpad and fans show signs of life. The display, caps lock light and touchbar do not turn on. There was previous liquid damage to the touchbar but after cleaning and drying the laptop was operational for a year without any issues. There doesn't seem to be any sign of liquid damage to the board, at present.

          What I have done so far:

          - All of the routine diagnostic methods including...
