Iphone 4 & 3gs on ios5.01 in a boot loop

Having both an iphone 4 and 3GS (neither are jail broken) in the same fault being stuck in a boot loop following nothing in common with either phone in relation to an application causing the issue.
I commenced in removing some application to see if that would make a difference, as the loop cycle was too fast t back the device up but that made no difference.
I then removed some pictures from both devices and well what do you know they have stopped looping and are back up and running correctly.

Hi,
The state of the computer/s memory is irrelevant to this issue even though there is no shortage on either memory or disk capacity.
How-ever the issue was resolved by removing a number of images/photos and videos from the iphone 4 & 3GS.
I do hope that this resolution can help others, and that the possible limitation issue of the devices for the storage of images and videos can be looked into as it clearly did cause an issue for the users, and I am a strong believer in finding the cause rather than re-building devices; as that does not give an answer in removing the issue in the future.
I hope this heps.

Enjoy your iBrick.
Now you know why Apple recommends against making unauthorized modifications to the phone.

Place the device in DFU mode (google it) and restore.

Iphone 3gs ios 6.1 stuck in boot loop even after restore

What happen was it froze so I did a hard rest after that it stayed on a boot loop. Done restored it several times stayed the same after I do a restore itunes does recognize the iphone but it stays on the Apple logo can anyone help

Something does not sound right with your story. An iPhone 3g is only capable of running iOS4.2.1 and not 6.1.6. Since the iPhone now appears to have relocked itself to the original carrier, it sounds like that iPhone is jailbroken to allow it to run a version of iOS that it not supposed to and to unlock illegal from the original carrier. Either get you details straight or we can't help you.

IPhone 5 Boot Loop

I got my iPhone 5 on launch day. This issue just started arising this past Thursday (9/27/12). I was at work and went to go check my phone, and it was stuck at a boot loop. This went on for about 15 minutes and then the phone went back to normal. It happened about twice afterwards but just a random reboot. Yesterday (9/28/12), I had the same problem again, only it went into about a 3 boot loop during work. About 3 hours later it went to infinite boot loop from about 7:45pm to 11:30pm. I held the home and power buttons for around 30 seconds, and everything was okay. Now I'm stuck in another boot loop for the last 90 minutes and I've tried my previous method, I've tried rebooting from DFU mode, and I've tried letting it sit there. It has been stuck at a steady Apple logo (no reboots) but it's getting me nowhere. If there is anything other than a restore that I can do, any advice would be appreciated because my phone hasn't been backed up since I got it.

I got the same problem..
for me it helps to press the power button to turn off the iphone, then wait a few minutes and start the iphone again..

My iPhone 5s suddenly has boot loop and shows blue screen.

My iPhone 5s suddenly has boot loop and shows blue screen. I tried to restore it with iTunes but it says that I have to enter my password on my phone first, which I can't technically do. What to do?
Also, I've read that I could get a replacement phone from apple but it was bought for me in CA, and I'm in the Philippines. Can I get a replacement still?

acarstensen, Help has arrived! Let's take a closer look to see what's going on. Does your device have any physical/liquid damage? Did this issue begin after a recent software update or app download?

Iphone 5 in boot loop and isn't being recognized by my computer.

Hey, I'm having a serious problem with my Iphone 5 right now. A few days ago my Iphone began having problems. I clicked on an app then i received multi colored vertical lines across my screen then i experienced the boot loop. Every time i turn on my Iphone it is stuck in the boot loop with the apple logo fading out every 3-5 seconds then it will flash with a white horizontal line across the top quickly and the boot loop will restart itself. I tried connecting my Iphone to my computer but it isn't being recognized. Also i tried various other computers but yet none of them recognized the phone. Also, previously i had some minor problems with the battery it would sometimes die with about 15-20 percent battery still left maybe this may contribute to this continuous boot loop i am not sure. Can anyone please help me i just got this phone not too long ago. Thank you in advanced

also i have tried a hard restore but i still experience the flashing apple logo after i attempt it

IPhone 5 6.1.4 newest software and endless boot loop... I restored, removed SIM, nothing worked. Help me!

Hi Everybody!
My iPhone 5 restarts every 3 minutes... Sometimes more, sometimes less. Boot loop. I restored, I removed the SIM card, I tried everything what I read on forums. The battery life goes down so quickly. I bought 5 months ago. What can I do?
Please, help me, it makes me crazy!
Thank you!
Roland

Since you've restored your iPhone already, go ahead and set up an appointment at an Apple Retail Store becuase this may be something they need to repair your iPhone for

Boot Loop and 'Fix'

Afternoon,
We had the known boot loop issue (TID10100142), so I applied the ZDM65SP2
Hot Patch which is not in full release yet.
What a disaster! Imaging then had a big hissy fit and I started getting
errors. Namely, Load.dnx error downloading "D"!
I tried to be smart and replace the TFTP folder with a standed SP2
version but started to get other errors.
To fix imaging not working at all I re-applied SP2, but the boot loop
issue is still presenting itself.
Suppose I better wait for the final Service Pack.
Cheereo,

Iphone 4 - Boot loop cannot restore

I plugged my Iphone 4 GSM into imac to charge over night (I always use wall socket but was leaving computer on to download something) when I woke up the phone was boot looping to apple logo. Tried restore and am being given errors -1 (mainly), 2001, 2006, 2009. Was suggested to try to see if I can get my shsh blobs off to down grade from ios5.1.1 and it cannot communicate with phone. I can put it into recovery mode or dfu mode once plugged into computer but as soon as phone reboots doing the restore or whatever its doing it just starts boot looping again. I should mention when its not plugged into computer it does nothing, completely dead. Phone is out of warranty by 3 months. Any help would be appreciated!

HTC Rezound Boot Loop Fix, Where can I find one

My HTC Rezound has been in a boot loop for awhile. (roughly a day) Usually once I charge it all the way, so the green light shows and try turning it on, trying a couple of times of course, it usually boots up correctly. However this time, it just isn't doing it. I have pulled the battery for a period of time to see if this would help it doesn't. I have tried to go to Hboot and try rebooting it and the recovery setting the in the Hboot. However, I really don't want to factory reset it. I'm trying to avoid that at all cost.

Stuck in boot loop

Hi, I am currently trying to fix my friends HTC Windows phone. Now I have at one point successfully got to the "!" screen but have had trouble getting pass the button sequence due to a battery issue. I have left it on the charger and just cant seem to get a charge to save my life. As far as I know there has never been any liquid damage nor has it been dropped, or thrown. The initial cause of the boot loop was a software download. What happend was my friend agreed to an OTA update of his phones system. He turned it off because he is impatient. Thus creating the issue. I believe I can fix it, but I now have doubts a bit because I can keep the phone charged long enough to start the factory reset. The charger indicated comes on, letting me know that its beginning to charge but then the phone dies due to the loop. I could use a bit of help on how to either shut it off for at least a few hours so it can charge or a way to let it charge while the boot continuously occurs.
I tell you this is why I use Iphones. Androids, and windows phones have always brought me to the peak of frustration.
I hope for a quick reply to this so I may return to him a working phone and make him a happier person.
Thank you,
TattooDaddy
