How can I take my Iphone 5 out of recovery mode if I do not want to restore my phone and my power button is broken?

Unfortunately, you will have to restore your iPhone...
From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 :
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup.

  • How can i get a iphone 3G out of recovery mode without restoring it

    Need Help, How can I get a iPhone 3G out of recovery mode without restoring it. it has never been backed up so restoring it will loose all contacts etc.

    You can't get it out of recovery mode without restoring it. 
    If it's in recovery mode, your data's almost certainly gone anyway.

  • TS2529 how can i get my iphone 3gs out of recovery mode

    Your choice.

  • How can I get this iPhone 5 out of Recovery Mode?

    I'm sure there are many questions asking the same thing, but my situation seems a little different than what I've read so far.
    I was attempting to restore a new iPhone 5 from a previous backup from an iPhone 3. After waiting for the 5 to download the new update (6.0.2), it started the restoration process, but stopped right before it was finished and gave me an "unknown error 6". I can't seem to make sense of what error 6 is, no matter what I read in forums.
    Since then, the phone has been in Recovery Mode. I cannot get to the home screen, it WILL NOT restore completely, and every time I try I get the error 6 message. This phone is useless right now, and I am unable to restore it.
    I've tried TinyUmbrella, restoring in DFU, and nothing seems to work.
    Does anyone have a clue as to where I can go from here? Any ideas are much appreciated.

    Greetings bruce0bruce,
    It seems your device is not functioning, and the Sleep/Wake button isn't working as well. Based on the information you have provided, it appears your iPhone needs to be serviced. The following link should help you get started with the process and has links with additional information on topics such as warranty and service pricing, battery replacement, and express replacement service.

  • How do I get my iPhone 5 out of recovery mode?

    I went to update to ios 7, and when I did my phone automatically shut down and went into recovery mode. Then, I hooked it up to the computer and restored my phone. It told me that the restore could not be completed. I have attempted the restore multiple times and I still can not get the phone out of recovery mode. Help!!!!

    If your phone is in recovery mode, all data on it are gone.  The only way to get your phone working again is to restore.
    Sorry for your data loss, but let this be a tough lesson learned about the importance of backing up data frequently.

  • How do I get my iphone 4 out of recovery mode

    I am having trouble getting my iphone out of recovery mode. While getting my upgrade my phone became detached from the computer in the middle of the download and went into recovery mode.  I have tried to restore the phone however while itunes is extracting data my phone will reset itself after so long before itunes can finish extracting data and when it does my itunes will not pick it.  Any suggestions??

    You can try this it has always worked for me:
    Try holding both the home button and power button until it shuts off and you see the apple logo come up.
    After that does take your finger off the power button WHILE STILL HOLDING the home button.
    This should send your phone into DFU mode where you can use the recovery option to kick it out of that mode.

  • How do I get my iPhone 4S out of Recovery Mode w/o restoring? (got stuck when upgrading to ios 7)

    Last night I upgraded my iPhone 4S to ios 7, and this morning when I went to use it I was stuck in Recovery Mode - How do I get my iPhone 4S out of it w/o restoring? I have photos, contacts, etc  Iwant to get off the phone. I tried Tiny Umbrella and RecBoot but no dice. I was not able to get any help from the Apple tech on the phone. They only suggestions offered were to check to see if iPhoto or the Finder would show my device so I could copy over my photos.
    Thanks, Chad

    That error usually means that your computer antivirus is blocking the update.
    It can also mean that your phone was jailbroken, or your computer was used to jailbreak some iOS device in the past.

  • How do i get my iphone 5 out of recovery mode after trying to install ios 7

    Alright, so i tried to install ios 7 and i got an error saying that the ios 7 update got a problem and so then my phone went into recovery mode. i installed tiny umbrella to get it out of recovery and it worked, so then i tried to install ios 7 again and it got another error this time my phone had already been switched to the ios 7 format but was not completely done, so my phone went into recovery mode again. so i tried tiny umbrella again and it just kept going back to recovery mode. i tried to restore my phone after trying to look for another way to get my phone out of recovery mode and i got nothing so i decided to restore my phone and i then get another freaking error saying that itunes could not restore due to a problem, then i just decided to try tiny umbrella one last time and it didnt work. so i tried to restore again but now my phone is not being detected on itunes so i cant do anything, and my phone is stuck in recovery mode... all i was trying to do is get the new update and now my phone is dead, it wont do anything please help!!

    Use tinyumbrella. Connect your iphone, click on the random string of numbers that appears in the recover devices window, and click "exit recovery". That solved my problem, and it may solve yours. Give it a shot.

  • How do I get my Iphone 5s out of recovery mode?

    A few days ago i got my phone wet and it turned off and completely stopped working but i got it fixed ( all broken parts replaced) and it was working fine until today when a friend dropped it and it went completely black until i plugged it into my charger and i just got the apple logo when i held down the power button. I read on a page that it had went into recovery mode and the page said to plug it into Itunes and i did and it said i needed to restore and recover it, so i did and i kept getting an error message (error iphone could not be updated/restored (9)  i looked on other pages and did what they said to do and nothing works can somebody please help me????

    It sounds like you are on the right path.  Error 9 is a security software redirection, so you might need to look into the steps in the article below or try restoring from another computer.

  • I can't get my iPhone 5 out of Recovery mode, help?!

    I plugged my phone into my macbook pro and Itunes asked me to update the phone's software, and now I cannot get out of recovery mode. Does this mean I have to restore my phone?

    Yes.  You need to restore the phone.  If you connected the phone to your computer, it should be backed up in iTunes.  Possibly iCloud as well.

  • How do I get my Iphone 4 out of recovery mode after an update without restoring it?

    I need help trying to get back my iphone to normal. I can't restore it because I didn't back up the video I made 2 days ago and I need it for school. How can I keep everything without restoring it to factory settings or back to what it was when I last backed it up?

    If the device is in Recovery Mode, its contents are toast Now, the best you can do to recover a working usable phone is to plug it via USB to the computer running the latest version of iTunes (11.1.2) where you presumably have the last backup you made of it. And Restore from that.

  • How do i get my iphone 4s out of recovery mode after trying to update to ios 8.1

    Okay, so, my iPhone 4s has been crashing a lot lately and I find myself having to reset it several times a day just to get it to stop. IMessages wont send properly and neither will text messages. Today I decided that maybe it keeps crashing because it is not up to date with the latest software. I plugged my phone into my laptop, backed it up and tried to update it... it crashed...  About 90% of the way through the update, my laptop told me there had been an "Unknown Error (6)" ... after 2 hours of continuously trying to update it, and failing miserably, I downloaded ReiBoot... nothing happened... after a further half an hour my phone has now decided to stop showing the "connect to iTunes" thing on the screen. instead, every time I press the lock button or the home button, it comes up with the apple logo as if my phone is turning on, then nothing happens..
    After hours of trying everything I could think of I have given up..
    CAN ANYONE AT ALL HELP ME?!?! :/ xx
