    Hi, bit75.  
    Thank you visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    This sounds like your device may be disabled and can only make emergency calls.  Here is the article that I would recommend going through if this is the case.  
    Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled

  • Shown on screen emergency call only and connect to itunes.

    I use iPhone 5c 16GB iOS 7. it shown on screen (emergency call) and also shown (connect to I tunes), I can access to my phone and  I try to switch off and on many time but I doesn't work.

    It's in recovery mode. You plug it into a computer running the current version of iTunes and restore iOS. There is NO OTHER WAY to get past this.
    Anything that was on the phone is gone. I hope you at least had iCloud backups turned on.

  • IPhone4: Stuck on on emergency calls only

    Hi i recently got a problem with my iphone whenever i turn it on theres a connect to itunes logo then says restore needed or emergency calls only, and when i connect it to itunes it says " itunes could not connect to iPhone "my iphone" because it is locked with a passcode. you must enter your passcose on the iPhone before it can be used with itunes.
    I have tried other steps around this to restore my phone but i dont have my phone backed up so i will loose all my photos.
    If anyone knows how i can get around this and back up my phone please help me out
    Thanks,

    There is no way around this. You will have to put the phone in recovery mode (google for instructions) and restore it. If it was not backed up, your data will be lost. It can not be backed up in the state it is in.

  • IPhone 3G stuck on emergency calls only screen. HELP!

    Hi everyone, I really need some help.
    I bought my jailbroken iPhone 3G from Hong Kong on eBay a few months back. Everything was working fine on iOS 4.2.1, except the battery life was very poor. After getting the battery replaced there was no improvement. So my boyfriend suggested I try restoring the phone with iTunes as it was supposed to improve the battery life.
    I plugged my phone in and went through the restore process, only to receive "iTunes Error 1015". After this my iPhone went into recovery mode and stayed put. I tried using a YouTube tutorial and TinyUmbrella to help me out of the error, but it only made my phone go to the "Emergency calls only" screen and now the phone will not appear in iTunes as it says the SIM card that has worked perfectly with iTunes every other time is not supported. I am at a total loss as for what I am meant to do. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
    Please help.

    I found your problem.
    All sorts of things can go wrong with jailbroken phones, it's never a good idea to do so. Not to mention, it means you won't be getting much help on here.

  • Razr HD 9.20.1 - Emergency Calls Only

    I held off doing the OTA until i just could take the nagging popups anymore.  Well, after the update completed my phone has been without service.  It says EMERGENCY CALLS ONLY and there is just a triangle where the signal meter should be.
    I have tried a soft reboot as well as a factory reset and no luck.  I can use wifi with no problems but cannot use the phone service.  My job requires me to be available 24/7 and now i have to rely on an email showing up and me seeing it to be connected.
    Anyone have any ideas as to why this would happen and what I can do to fix the problem?

    Try this ... turn off your phone, take out the SIM card, turn the phone on, turn the phone off, reinsert the SIM card, then turn the phone back on.
    If that doesn't work, you may need to get Verizon to reactivate your phone and you probably will need a new SIM card (they're free at your local Corporate Verizon store).

  • Emergency calls only-restore not work

    Today I went to use my phone after having used it only 20 mins earlier and it had the picture of the itunes and the cord saying emergency calls only and to hook the phone to itunes.
    I did this and nothing changed, still said no service. So I did a full restore of the settings back to factory. It came up with the service provider again and I loaded everything back on it. Then I went to send a message and it came up with emergency calls again.
    I took the sim out and then re inserted it. Same thing.
    I don't want to have to send the phone away to be fixed.
    Any tips on what I could try?

    Maybe, but I prefer this.
    I witnessed a bad traffic accident not long ago and when I tried calling 911, there was no answer at that particular time - must have been a lot of calls at that particular time, or a shift change was going on, or a number of operators were taking an extended coffee or bathroom break.
    If I was in dire straights and unable to place a call, but I was with someone that could place a call on my behalf who doesn't know my passcode, I would want them to have the ability to dial any number if there was no 911 answer at that particular time.

  • I phone home screen says disabled and emergency calls only as i have forgot passcode

    i phone home screen says disabled and emergency calls only as i have forgot passcode
    cannot reset through itunes
    just keeps saying that it cannot be restored as there is a lock on it

    Restore the device.
    If "Find My iPhone" is activated on the device, wipe the device via iCloud.com and then restore it.

    Welcome to the Apple Community John.
    Enter the pass code you set up when locking the phone or the screen lock code already in use on the phone if you weren't required to set one up when you locked it.

  • Phone says it needs to be restored and to connect to iTunes to restore. Emergency calls only. But nothing happens when i connect it to iTunes. What's going on?

    Why can't I restore my iphone 4. it says to connect to itunes to restore and emergency calls only. But it doesn't restore.

    Reboot your computer
    Connect the USB end of the cable to a USB port directly on the computer, not a hub
    Disable your firewall and antivirus
    Launch iTunes
    Disconnect the phone from the other end of the cable
    Hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons until the screen goes black, then release the SLEEP button but contiune holding the HOME button
    Connect the cable to the phone while still holding HOME
    Wait for iTunes to recognize a phone in "recovery mode", then release HOME and your phone should restore.
