After updating iphone 5c to ios 8.1.3 goes into recovery mode
the problem is that if i restore it like its trying to suggest me i will lose all my apps, photos, chats
HELP!
if you are wondering this was a OTA update
Hi
Recovery mode as in a USB connector icon on the screen?
Did you backup prior to the upgrade to 8.1.3?
Did you have iCloud engaged?
You have lost you txt. messages on your apple app.
But some 3rd party chat apps to hold data in your iCloud backup, you will not know till you try.

In updating to most recent ios, iPad says its gone into recovery mode - any ideas?
When updating to the most recent iOS, my iPad says its gone into recovery mode and the only option i have is to restore to factory settings - any ideas?
The message means what it says. Unfortunately something went wrong and you will have to restore your iPad now. If you have a backup, you can restore from the backup after you restore the iPad to factory settings. If you have no backup, you have to start all over again.
You can download much of your purchased content again in the purchased tabs of iTunes or the app stores or if you sync with iTunes ( if you sync with iTunes you should have some sort of backup) you can sync your content back to the iPad. -
IPhone 5 going into recovery mode
My iphone has been continously shutting off and going into recovery mode. I sometimes can get lucky and turn it back on, but my phone will randomly freeze and turn off again. I have just restored my phone this morning, and minutes after I got it up and running it shut off again. Sometimes the apple logo appears and just fades to black. I have not jailbroken or tampered with this phone in any way. It has also not been dropped. It is still under warranty, so I am thinking about replacing it. Any suggestions? Is there a known cause for this problem? Thanks.
When you restored it did your restore from a back up? Try restoring it to factory settings! If the issue/problem was in the software it could be in the backup and when you restore and put the back up on the phone you are just putting the problem right back on....

What cause searching network problem after updating iphone 6 from iOS 8.1.2 TO iOS 8.1.3?
what cause searching network problem after updating iphone 6 from iOS 8.1.2 TO iOS 8.1.3?
SSince Apple does not support downgrading the iOS I suggest you start a new question that gives a good title to a specific problem. Then in the body of the thread describe the problem in detail, tell us what steps you have tried so far to correct the problem, what happened, and what error messages you received.

HELP!!!!Hi guyz just fixed mine just now, I used an app named iREB please refer to the below link. Make sure youre iphone is plugged in to your USB then launch the app as admin. As soon as the app is running go to the "Recovery Mode Loop Fixer" tab & hit the "Set Auto-Boot True (Fixes 1015 errors / Recovery Loops). It will restart your iPhone in just a moment & get you back to your homescreen.
I hope this will help those whos undergoing this horrifying iPhone problem.
Just additional info.

Are you uninstalling just iTunes? Because if so, you actually have to uninstall five separate programs, and THEN reinstall.

I have attempted to update my iPhone to ios8. My phone has gone into recovery mode. I have tried all of your recommendation and it will not come out of recovery mode. HELP!
Without knowing what you did and exactly what happened (error messages) all I can suggest is:
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

IPhone 3G goes into Recovery Mode after every restore
Every time I restore my iPhone 3G, it goes into recovery mode right after an error-less restore has been completed. Yes, I've tried using tools such as TinyUmbrella and RecBoot and iRecovery. The device was not jailbroken when I tried to update it to 4.2.1 yesterday. They all reboot the phone and just throw it back into recovery. I have no idea what to do. Searching is futile. I thought I might as well do what I almost never do and ask these communities for support.
I hope they don't disappoint.I had this problem with my wife's iPad when I updated to 7.0.3 via OTA. It was easily fixed for me, and I assume it should work for everyone else.
It appears that sometimes during installation of the OTA update to 7.0.3, it gets stuck in recovery half way through.
You can connect it to iTunes and restore it, which will wipe it, OR you can download TinyUmbrella and kick it out of recovery. Once you do that, the installer should complete normally (it did for me).
1) Download and install TinyUmbrella for your PC/Mac.
2) Make sure iTunes isn't running and connect your device via USB.
3) Open up TinyUmbrella. Your device should show up on the left. Click on it and then choose "exit recovery".
4) Profit. -
My problem is that I cannot let me phone turn off or sleep too long without it going into recovery mode! It becomes very stubborn to get out and also extremely annoying! Need a permant fix!!
No warranty left -_-Guitargirlcaz wrote:
I've checked with Apple. They only give 28Days warranty now :'(
Whoever told you that is wrong. The warranty on a repair or replacement iPhone is still 90 days minimum. Quoting from their Service FAQ:
If defects arise as a result of service, Apple will cover the repair for the remaining term of the iPhone's warranty or 90 days after iPhone service, whichever provides longer coverage for you.
Call Apple Support and discuss your problem with them. If they agree that it's a hardware problem, they can arrange for mail-in service.

Iphone 3g randomly goes into recovery mode all the time?
I have an Iphone 3g version 4.3.5 (8L1). It works fine and i've never dropped it or anything like that. But the first time the problem happened i had just got done sending a text, pushed the lock button, and put it in my pocket. Then a few minutes later i pulled it out to check it and it wouldnt turn on. I held the lock button down and the connect to itunes icon came up, but nothing else. No emergency call option or anything. it wouldnt go away. i connected to itunes and it said it was in recovery mode. I tried to restore it but it came up with an error. i left it and tried again later. i restored but some things were erased. then it worked fine again. but later that night it did it again. so i just plugged it into the charger. in the morning i tried turning it back on again and it turned on without the connect to itunes icon. worked fine all day. but it does this every now and then. when i plug it in it goes back to normal after 10-20 mins. its annoying tho and if im not home my fone is stuck like that until i get back. why does it keep randomly going into recovery mode?
1. The latest iOS version available for the iPhone 3G is 4.2.1, not 4.3.5. Do you actually have an iP3GS or was your iP3G hacked to install 4.3.5?
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3939
2. "I tried to restore it but it came up with an error." What EXACT error?
3. "i restored but some things were erased" What "things"? Did you get an error again. Were you restoring as new or using a backup?
4. Did you ever restore the phone as NEW without using a backup? -
HT1414 iphone 4 goes into recovery mode error 40
iphone 4 keeps going into recovery mode, when try to restore the iphone it comes up with error code (40), how can this be fixed?
Hi November-Rain,
I found the following information about error code 40:
Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37, 40
These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

IPhone goes into recovery mode every time it dies?
If my phone battery dies it immediately is in recovery mode and I have to wipe the phone to get it back to factory settings. Can i fix this??? It is very annoying and sometimes my phones dies when I have 30-40% battery still so I am not sure if I can even prevent this from happening.
Hello emmahardman,
It sounds like your phone needs to be restored because it goes into Recovery Mode when the battery runs out, and it sometimes turns off when there appears to be plenty of charge left. Assuming you are restoring from a backup when this happens, I would next time set it up as a new device and test to see if it happens again. If so, reset the phone with the following process and test it again:
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
If the issue still keeps happening, I would next seek service for the iPhone:
iPhone Repair and Service - Apple Support
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
