Complete iphone 6 crash after update to iOS 8.3.1. No possibility to reconfigure or even restore factory setting.

Tried to update my brand new iPhone 6 to iOS 8.3.1. Stopped in the middle of the update. After connecting via USB to itunes a) update of configuration without success and  b) reset to factory settings without success:  "an unknown failure has been detected (code 56)".
Seems after putting a day's work into getting the phone setup and now wasting the whole evening trying to get the update mess sorted out, I now have the choice between waiting one week to cue in an apple store 100 km away or to send my phone in.
Anyone sharing my fate? Any ideas how to save me from the oddyssee of Apple service?
Thanks and best regards,
Marcel

  • 3gs no service after updating to ios 5 tried network reset, reset all settings and even restoring from back been with out phone for 3 weeks now need help telus cant find network problem and apple has bad customer support please help!!!

    my 3gs has no service after updating from ios 5 tried resetting network settings, resetting all settings and restoring from back up on itunes.
    telus cant find any network problems and apple is difficult to deal with.please help 3 weeks with no phone and $70 a month not happy.

    I have been having a similar problem for the last few days.Without warning the signal will just completely duck out leaving the device searching for several minutes before settling on a no signal message.
    Sometimes restarting the device, toggling data and 3g settings or toggling Airplane Mode will set things right. However, a lot of the time I've been left without a working phone.
    I don't believe this is a SIM issue, as I had to change my SIM only one month ago for another signal related problem. Again any help would be appreciated here as well.

  • My iphone 5c crashed after updating to IOS 8.02 and now i don't have anything from the last 3 months. What do I do?

    Don't worry about that. iPhone stuck in recovery mode always happens when you update the iOS on your iPhone. There are two ways to solve it.
    First is is to put your iPhone in DFU mode.
    Step 1. Turn off iPhone
    Step 2. Hold down the Power and Home button.
    Step 3. When you see the Apple logo, release the power button but continue holding the Home button down.
    Step 4. Open iTunes and wait for it to tell you that it’s in restore mode.
    If DFU mode can't solve the problem, I'm afraid the only solution is to try some 3rd party software, like iPhone data recovery or something like that. You may simply try the tutorial here: How to Fix iPhone that is Stuck in Recovery Mode.

  • Ipad constantly crashing after updating to iOS 8.1.3.

    ipad constantly crashing after updating to iOS 8.1.3. I can't restore it to factory settings. I can't even turn it off. It just keeps crashing and trying to reboot etc.  Sometimes I see the black screen with the white apple and sometimes the screen is white.  I saw it say "Hello" once, but then it crashed again.  While rebooting, it does sync up with itunes briefly and is recognized.  When I try to restore, it says I need to turn off "find my iphone" but I can't access any settings within the ipad to do that.  Also, it tells me I need to enter my passcode to continue, but I can't do that either since the ipad is constantly in crash mode.

    Not a good sign. Try forcing the phone into recovery mode & restoring it. If this fails, make an appointment at an Apple store:
    Turn your phone off. Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.

    Hi waqaskhan91,
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you're not able to send text or iMessages to certain contacts after updating your iPhone, start with the troubleshooting tips in this article:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages - Apple Support
    If you only see this behavior with a few contacts, you may want to try these steps first:
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and recreate the contact from the Contacts app. Send a new message to the contact.
    Best Regards,
    Jeremy

    Hello HaithamOkeely,
    We've an article that provides the following troubleshooting steps that may help stabilize your iPhone.
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.

  • IPhone 4 after updating to iOS 5.0.1 I can no longer send emails.

    iPhone 4 after updating to iOS 5.0.1 I can no longer send emails.  I get a message saying the recipients "email address" was rejected by the server.  Incoming still works fine.

    SMS is a carrier feature, what did your phone carrier say when you contacted them about your issue?
    Double check you have MMS turn on in message settings.

  • My cellular network is not working on my iphone 5 after updating to ios 8.1.2 !! It was working fine on ios 8.1.1and it was not jillbreak or hacked to unlock. I need help, what can I do?

    My cellular network is not working on my iphone 5 after updating to ios 8.1.2 !! It was working fine on ios 8.1.1

    Did you do the Reset Network Settings as I described above?
    There is no way to go back. You can try reseating your nanoSIM or replacing it. Or call your cell provider and have them check the provisioning on your phone.
    Or Restore your iPhone from your backup in iTunes.

    iphone crashed after update it wont recognise itunes when plugged in and do anything besides display itunes needs to be connected please help

    "I bought it a couple of weeks ago"
    Bought it from where? I ask because given what you have already tried, it would appear that this iPod needs either service or exchanging for another one.
    Did you buy this as new from a reputable source?

    The wifi doesn't work on my iphone 4s after updating to ios 8.02. How do i fix this?

    Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting.
    If this did not work, and to rule out a software issue, setting it up as new device would be the next step:
    iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
    If still no luck, this might be a hardware problem and the phone has to be checked by an Authorized Apple Service Provider or Apple:
