Anyone from Hawaii successfully updated their Iphone 5 to Ios 7? I tried updating numerous times but kept running into error 1669. Any insights would be appreciated.

I verified that I have the latest version of iTunes. I tried updating to Ios 7 via just connecting to iTunes, dfu mode and connect to iTunes, df mode and install ios 7 files download via a reputable site, and nothing seems to work. I'm now stuck in the "connect to iTunes" screen. My phone is practically useless right now.
I must have tried to restore it like 30+ times to no avail. Itune restore 2/3 of the way and then the error 1669 shows up. From what I read, this seems to be a new error that Apple just found out. Anyone else have any insights on how I am able to fix this issue so I could use my Iphone 5 again?

Error 1669 is relatively a new issue, even the apple support staff are not aware of it.
A user noticed a tiny red dot on the screen. Did you noticed any red dots on the screen?
I really think that this is a water damage issue. Apparently once the upgrade determines that there is an issue with the chip it sends into recovery mode forever...
Did you have water damage on your iPhone prior to the upgrade?

Delete the iOS 6 IPSW as you won't be able to use it again.
Uninstall iTunes 11.1 and all of its cache (make sure you remove the cache). Restart your PC if prompted to. Then reinstall a copy of iTunes 11.0.5 from the direct links below. If you have any libraries or locally cached data that you want to keep, temporarily store them somewhere until you get the situation fixed
