Thanks, I figured that out, so I went ahead and restored it, which also didn't work! It gave me an error 3194, which I also can't figure out.

Hi, my iphone 5 encountered an unknown error while updating to iOS 7 via itunes and is now stuck in recovery mode and prompts me to restore the phone when I connect it to itunes but then I would lose all my data. I DO NOT have any back ups on itunes. Is there anyway to get out of recovery mode without restoring or recover data after a restore?
Or any other suggestions please? ThanksAs pdroth said, you should have gotten a backup made when you started the update of iOS. If you cannot find a backup, and the phone is in recovery mode, there are no futher suggestions to make. To get the phone working again you have to restore. You cannot force a backup at this time since it is already in recovery mode. It will not allow anything else but a restore at this point.

My phone is stuck in recovery mode. Are my photos and videos that weren't downloaded lost?
I've been lazy about updating my phone. I plugged it into my computer tonight, the prompt came up and I absentmindedly clicked OK, you get the picture. It claims the update failed and now my phone is stuck in recovery mode. I can't believe I didn't back up my phone before I did this - I just wasn't thinking. Have I lost all my videos and pictures?
They should have been part of the backup. If you have already restored from the backup and they are not present on the phone, then they are gone. If you have not yet attempted to restore, just restore already... you don't have any other choice. Debating whether something will be there or not is pointless. It will, or it won't. discussing it won't change that.

I attempted to update to iOS 8 and now my phone is stuck in recovery mode, and iTunes will only let me restore to factory settings. My question: Can I restore from iTunes backup after restoring to factory settings?
Hi, kformagg
I would say yes. I once had the same problem (iPhone 5, IOS 7) and first restored to factory settings and after that from iCloud backup.
It worked very well. -

i tried updating my iphone 4s to the ios 7 but it said error with the firmware now my phone is stuck in recovery mode and i have no idea how to fix it any suggestions??
Try Restoring it 3 times in a row and see if that works.
If not that error can indicate one of two things: Your iPhone was at one time jailbroken, had the iOS version rolled back, or ran an unauthorized beta and if none of those things are true it is a hardware error. -

Tried updating to iOS 6, now my phone is stuck in recovery mode...help?
I tried updating my phone to the iOS 6 software, and my iTunes won't read my phone at all. It keeps saying that "your iphone is in recovery mode and needs to be restored." I restored it for an hour and it didn't work at all. Now my phone is stuck in recovery mode. I'm away at college and I don't know how to fix it. Help!
No, it is my phone that I've had since 2009. I just hate updating it because every time I do something goes wrong. So I put it off as long as possible. I am getting a new iphone, but I read that to have your backup transfer to the new phone, it must be a backup from the current ios.

Can anyone help me with my phone being stuck in recovery mode? I have looked all over the internet and have had no success. I have not tried to restore it with Itunes, because my data is not backed up and I don't want to lose it. Tinyumbrella would not work and the apple support website is completely useless!
Thanks, I figured that out, so I went ahead and restored it, which also didn't work! It gave me an error 3194, which I also can't figure out.

Any way to avoid Restoring phone when stuck in Recovery mode?
I connected to my PC to update my iPhone 4. It gave me a message saying "unknown error 21 occurred--could not update iPhone." Now it is stuck in recovery mode and I don't want to erase all my phone and start again. Somebody pleeeeeeeeeease help! Why is it doing this?
Thanks, guys, for taking the time to offer suggestions. After about 24 hours of frustration, rebooting, repeated attempts to Restore, and toggling back and forth between Run As Administrator, I was finally able to update, Restore, and I now have my phone back! I'm sure there is a simpler way to avoid these problems; maybe some day I'll learn them! Thanks
