For a 1G and 2G it can take hours. Make sure it is connected to a charging source otherwise the battery can fully drain before it is done. If still problem
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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 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.

HT201274 I do the Erase All Content and Settings, How can i restart my i phone 3s?

I do the Erase All Content and Settings, How can i restart my i phone 3gs?

Reset the iPhone by holding the sleep/wake button at the top right of the device and the home button at the bottom center of the face at the same time.
Hold them both until you see the screen go black. In some cases, you may need to keep holding them even after the red power off slider appears. If it does, just keep holding it.
Wait until the white Apple logo appears.
When this happens, you can let go - the iPhone is rebooting.
An iPhone reset will not normally remove or delete any data or settings. However, the term reset is also sometimes used to mean deleting all content from the iPhone and/or restoring from a backup.

I recommend that you
Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure you specify a birthdate that results in being at least 13 years old
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
Settings>FaceTime
Settings>GameCenter
and Settings>iCloud
Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.

HT201274 How do you cancel the "erase all content and settings" process?

I started the "erase all content and settings" process and its seems to be taking forever, please how do i cancel the "erase all content and settings" process?

Welcome to Apple Communities
Try to turn off your device holding the Sleep button. Then, turn on, connect it to your computer and restore with iTunes

I am confused. You said till you Erases all contents and setting yu could not turn it and iTunes did not see it. How could you Erase all Contents and Setting if you could not turn it on?

Recently I erased an iPhone 3 so that it could be passed on and used by someone else, using the erase all content and settings feature. This has killed my iPhone and it is now stuck on the Apple logo. I have tried a restore in iTunes but recovery fails.

If you haven't already tried, see if you can force it into recovery mode to restore it:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808. If that doesn't work, the last thing you can try is to put it in DFU mode to restore it: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2648467?threadID=2648467&tstart=0.

I make reset the iPhone 3 ,I press the erase all content and settings button , but I wait 12 hours now . The screen not come up and I can't do nothing

I make reset the iPhone 3 , impress the erase all content and setting . I wait 12 hours already I don't got the screen come up only I saw is apple icon only . How I have to be get back my home screen

Did you have modified software installed before you tried to reset the phone? If yes, jailbreaking the device has made it useless.

If i erase all content in settings, will my apps and photos be deleted

If i erase all content in settings, will my apps and photos be deleted

Yes ... from your iPhone.
Hopefully you have them backed up somewhere.

Erased all content on 3G but now won't sync with iTunes. Error states, "This iPhone cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started." I don't want phone service on this old 3G. Just want to use it as an iTouch. Any suggestions?

HT201274 what should i do if i interrupted the erase all content process from my ipod i pressed sleep button and menu button for 10 seconds

please help here i just interrupted the process of erasing all content from my ipod it took almost 10 hours then i got worried from waiting i pressed both sleep button and menu button for 10 seconds while in process what should i do?

After charging the iPod for at least an hour try:
- Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Connect to computer and restore via iTunes
- Next see if placing the iPod in Recovery mode will allow a restore.
- Then try DFU mode and a restore.

HT201274 If i use the "Erase all Content and Data" button can I put an app back on the phone that is no longer in the app store but is store on the itunes in my computer?

I have an app, no longer in the app store, that i want to keep an iphone i'm getting rid of. I backed up the iphone on itunes and deleted all data, but the app, manually. I want to erase all data, and then put the app back on the phone. Please advise. Thanks

Then as I said you can do an Erase All Content and Settings which will wipe the phone. Completely. In order to add a game from your iTunes you will have to activate the iPhone with your Apple ID and then sync the game. You don't have to sync anything else. But you will need to sell the phone with your Apple ID on it.

My i clicked the erase all content and setting button in my itouch now its not working what to do?

i want to sell my itouch so i have to delete all the files but the thing is it is jailbroken and i did was i clicked the reset erase all content and setting now it has logo of apple with skull and it seems that it is still loading but its been like that for 6hrs what to do? i cant even connect to itunes.

All I can recommend in thsi Apple forum is to Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes.
Jailbreaking voids the Apple warranty and also means that you will not get any support from Apple, including from this Apple forum. Jailbreaking can't be discussed in this Apple forum.

HT4113 hello, I have an Iphone 4 and im trying to "erase all content and settings" but it asks for a passcode that i have no idea what is. its none of my previous passcodes ive ever had. What should i do to find out that passcode?

Hello im trying to "erase all content and settings" on my iphone 4, but it keeps asking for a 4 digit passcode and i have no idea what that passcode is. It's none of my previous passwords I've had on the phone since i've used it. How do i find out that Passcode?

Are you sure it's asking for a four digit code?
iOS 7 has a new feature called Activation Lock. It requires your Apple ID and password before doing something like an iPhone reset. This is a new anti-theft feature.

Giving iPhone 4 to family member, already erased all content and settings

I am giving my iPhone 4 (Verizon) to my younger brother who is in college b/c I picked up a iPhone 5 (Verizon) yesterday. I have already erased all content and setting via the reset. I have also went to the apple page to unregister the device under my apple id and phone number. Now I have heard horror stories of people selling their iPhones and for some reason the person who they sold it to will get the sellers iMessages. Has anyone experienced this before with selling Verizon CDMA phone?

That's a great question, Vell! I can understand why this is important to you! I can confirm that you have taken all the necessary steps to ensure that your brother does not receive your iMessages. I have also provided you with a great link that should soothe any lingering concerns...http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4627 Have a great day!
