Called 'Mistake 53', the issue influences the handsets that have gotten their Touch ID repaired from anyplace other than a store affirmed by Apple. A few clients noticed that their iPhone all of a sudden got to be unusable after they upgraded to the most recent adaptation of iOS.

Clients whine around this began to start in September 2014, the time when the iPhone 6 was dispatched, yet the recurrence of such grievances has considerably expanded in the course of recent months. A few discussions including organization's bolster channel, Reddit and different spots are overflowed with clients who have confronted comparable issues.

I then had a go at overhauling my iPhone by means of iTunes, and the upsetting message of an Error 53 ran over my screen, and now my telephone just demonstrates the associate with iTunes logo."

"We ensure unique finger impression information utilizing a safe enclave, which is extraordinarily combined to the Touch ID sensor. At the point when iPhone is overhauled by an approved Apple administration supplier or Apple retail location for changes that influence the Touch ID sensor, the matching is re-accepted. This check guarantees the gadget and the iOS highlights identified with Touch ID stay secure," an Apple representative told the distribution.
