I got this kind of errors when I used on msys2 environment other than mingw32 prefix. It was caused by some error on this:

# check if libimobiledevice has timeout errors
AC_CACHE_CHECK(for IDEVICE_E_TIMEOUT in enum idevice_error_t, ac_cv_idevice_error_has_timeout,
	AC_TRY_COMPILE([
		#include <libimobiledevice/libimobiledevice.h>
		], [
			return IDEVICE_E_TIMEOUT;
		], ac_cv_idevice_error_has_timeout=yes, ac_cv_idevice_error_has_timeout=no))

if test "$ac_cv_idevice_error_has_timeout" = "yes"; then
	AC_DEFINE(HAVE_IDEVICE_E_TIMEOUT, 1, [Define if enum idevice_error_t defines IDEVICE_E_TIMEOUT])
fi

Using CPPFLAGS define fixes that issue on my case. I think that kind of errors could be also related for some kind of USB Hub issue.

I'm using CPPFLAGS define for my use as well, so it always prefers built headers and autoconf check passes. I've seen the infamous ERROR: Unable to receive message from FDR 0x55c152cca6c0 (-2). 0/2 bytes many times, yet I can't find a solution. Try it another time and the same device flashes just fine..

The same happens on iphone 5s

[kenkit]

Now I have 3 devices that are unable to restore. Not even with itunes or 3utools because of this bug. I suspect it has something to do with jailbreak

[iOSPrincekin]

I have this problem too

[iOSPrincekin]

device_error = idevice_connection_receive_timeout(fdr->connection, (char *)&cmd, sizeof(cmd), &bytes, 40000); upload timeout to 40000 sovled my problem!
