You can't make this shit up any more, Apple's quality has GONE DOWN THE FUCKING TOILET
"This appears to be related to an attempt to update the firmware of the NFC IC/chip during the update/restore process.
Multiple mentions in the update logs regarding opening and failing serial UART commands on the NFC IC. Oddly (and suspiciously) the logs show the restore/flashing tool for the NFC IC is being told to load firmwares for two different NXP NFC ICs. After the tool fails to flash the NFC IC it triggers the restore to fail with code 56 as I'm guessing a CRC integrity check for the NFC chip fails due to the failed/corrupt flashing of the firmware. The sporadic nature of the failure is confusing, but I'd take a stab at a bad UART clock signal somewhere.
This will likely be resolved by changing the images that the tool is trying to flash to the NFC IC or by being a bit safer with how the serial sessions are opened. It is, however, incredibly annoying."
