Sounds more like someone tried to jailbreak it & cocked it up or it was jailbroken already & and update caused the error.

Try deleting any ispw files on your computer & then try plug it in via usb lead & restore.

I don't know the history of the phone nor do i have any receipt i am unsure if it has been jail broken in the past and this is the cause of the fault not sure if they would just replace it ?
