7.0.2 put iPhone in recovery mode???

please please i need help, i was updating my iPhone 4 and just as it was about to finish an unkown error occured and now it looks like i have to restore my phone to its factory settings?? I really cant do that, not all my items arew synced!! please help!

In order to put iPhone in recovery mode, firstly leave USB cable connected to computer, but disconnect cable from the iPhone. Then turn the iPhone OFF. Next press and hold the Home button on phone.
While continuing to hold the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the iPhone. Continue to HOLD until you see the "Connect to iTunes" message on the phone's screen. iTunes should message it "has detected a device in recovery mode"

    when i upgraded my iphone to the new update My iphone 5 screen went completely black and has been like it for 2 days. I have tried holding home and lock,I have tried holding lock and the volume, and I have tried holding just the volume, it still just stays black.
    When i plugged it into my Mac the apple logo comes up on the iphone screen. and then on the computer it says itunes has detected an iphone in recovery mode. you must restore this iphone before it can be used with itunes. (as in the below pictures)
    when i click ok to restore it just says waiting for iphone (as in the other photo below). i left it in for 20minutes and still said the same thing.
    after that i tried unplugging the iphone and it just went back to being a black screen again if anyone has any idea please please help me, thank you.

  • My iPhone 4 will NOT show up on iTunes, not even by putting it into recovery mode. Can anyone help me fix this problem? I would like to use iTunes with it.

    I got an iPhone 4 on Thursday.
    I connected it to my PC, a Windows Vista, that day and nothing showed up besides a "camera."
    My computer picked it up as a camera, which I understand is a common occurence in the iPhone.
    After browsing countless youtube videos and Apple Forum Questions, nothing helped.
    I put it into recovery mode by holding on the power and menu button, but when I opened iTunes it still didn't detect anything.
    I feel like I'm almost hurting my iPhone because I turned it off and on so many times, and plugged it in and out several times, and so forth.
    Here is what happened after putting it into recovery mode: 1. A Windows "device locator" popped up. 2. It was looking for a solution to help me with the unknown device, or iPhone. 3. I clicked onto the find solution button, and it told me that I needed a disc.
    --- I didn't have a disc, so I looked up this problem and it told me to manually find Apple mobile device support on my driver, so I did.---
    4. I then went onto Control Panel and clicked on SYSTEM and MAINTENANCE and went to DEVICE MANAGER.
    5. There I found my iPhone listed under USB controllers.
    6. I uninstalled and installed it several times.
    7. I then manually found a program to ease the problem. The program was "apple mobile device support," which was located on my apple driver.
    8. Nothing happened, besides it reporting to me that Apple USB was found and that "code 39" or "code 1" was in the way.
    9. I didn't know what to do with this....
    By this time, I was about to give up on my iPhone and return it back to the store.
    I tried again, but in a different way this time.
    1. I put it back into recovery mode and I opened itunes.
    2. itunes reported to me that some burning or CD/Drive software was missing and that I needed to reinstall it.
    3. SO, I reinstalled it several times, about 12 (iTunes), and nothing changed.
    4. I then looked up the problem of why the CD/Drive software problem kept popping up.
    5. I fixed it by going to my registry and adding an UpperFilter with the code GEARaspi...something like that.
    6. The problem was fixed, but still no iPhone onto my itunes.
    I stayed up all night last night to fix this problem...I'm annoyed and tired.
    I tried another problem to fix this.
    1. I didn't put it into recovery mode.
    2. My iPhone showed up under portable devices under "device manager," from SYS/MAIN"
    3. I did update software.
    4. I clicked on "apple mobile device support" but nothing happened.
    5. It reported to me of the Code thing again.
    I even called the Apple people and they didn't know what to do, so I stopped calling them...because they only had limited options to fix the problem.
    Can anyone help me?

    There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.

    In particular, pay attention to the mobile device support sections near the bottom, assuming you have already done the items above it.

  • HT1212 I have an iphone 3 which has been disabled, I've put it into recovery mode but itunes won't connect to it. I know the password but the device wn't give me the option to add it. What else can I do to enable the device. I can't wipe it from the cloud

    I have an iphone 3G which has been disabled after a child tried to get into it. Itunes will not connect until I have put the passcode in but the device will only enable emergency calls and does not allow a passcode to be put in. I have put it into recovery mode and itunes can't see it. There is currently no SIM card in it and it's not connectng to the wifi so I can't wipe it from the cloud. Any ideas how I can get into it?

    iPhones require a SIM for activation.
    Put the device in DFU mode (google it) and restore via iTunes.

    BTW, the phone has never been jailbroken or anything.  Stock standard

    when the screen goes black release the sleep/wake button, but continue holding home button
    PLUG THE CABLE INTO THE DEVICE
    do not release home button until an itunes graphic appears on IOS device.

    Hey rayele,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    After reviewing your post, it sounds like you are locked out of the iPhone. You haven't mentioned what part of the process isn't working for you. If you restored to a saved backup and the password came back you may want to see if you can restore as new without using the backed up data.

    Try a reset, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.

    if your computer is not recognizing it, try using a different USB port or different usb cable. if that doesnt work you will need to uninstall and reinstall itunes.
