The new iOS 9.3.2 firmware update just released by Apple is reportedly bricking some 9.7-inch iPad Pro devices.

Users are shown an "Error 56" message that instructs them to plug their devices into iTunes, according to MacRumors.

Surf Monkey: "Bricked my iPad Pro 9.7 inch. Be careful."
NewtypeCJ: Mine is bricked. Says it needs to be plugged into iTunes, won't restore or update, just a big loop. Fantastic. :\
dwmreg: My iPad Pro 9.7" is definitely screwed up now! ... Apple definitely sucks. My device is bricked and I cannot get my iPad Pro in the store and to a Genius Bar appt. until Wednesday afternoon!

Let us know if you've experienced any issues with updating your iPad Pro. We'd suggest trying a DFU mode restore for those who have run into problems.

And so Apple recalled the 9.3.2 update apparantly. You'd wish they did a bit more thorough testing before releasing. Including the latest models ;-)

I encountered error 4005 on my iPad2 during update from my PC running iTunes. I rebooted the PC and also the iPad, and was successful in getting past the "connect to iTunes" message.

mine just fine on the iphone but the reboot speed is slower than the 9.3.1

Bricked.. Nothing works... Thank you for not to be able to finish my work

Does it affect the iPad Air 2? I'm afraid to update that one. My iPhone insolence of for the crashing parts where the apps just suddenly crash and close on their own. Whatever.

Since 9.3.2 was supposed to fix some issue with BT I decided to load it. Since then I get frequent messages about entering a region with Null iBeacon. Anyone else suffering the same?

Just Curious those that have "Bricked" were the iPads Jailbroken prior to the Update??

9.3.2 just messed up my iPad Mini 3 and is currently downloading 1.9GB "software update" to restore it from recovery mode. WTF ???

Three words: It. Just. Works.

Vision of Apple by Tim Cook :-( he must left Apple immediately

Recap - May 17, 2016 at 2:14am

Tim Cook has been at this for 5 years, Apple still growing strong, and now you think you can just flat out claim that over one tiny flaw update when people are able to downgrade currently!?
