"The iphone iphone could not be restored. an unknown error occurred (5)"

You will have to restore it. It will be restored to the last backup you did when you synced with iTunes, which is why its a good idea to sync frequently.

Having a 3rd party replace your screen has voided your warranty. Bring your phone back to whomever repaired it. Nothing we users can do for you.

Why does my iphone 3gs keep turning on and off

i need help my iphone 3gs keeps turning on and off and it has a charged battery. ive tried multiple chargers but none of them work. and when i conect it to itunes it doesnt even read my device. what can i do?

IPhone 3GS wont turn on and is not recognised by iTunes

Okay, so my iphone is not working at all, i have tried everything possible. It will not turn on, itunes recognises it sometime for 30 seconds then it thinks i have not plugged anything in.

Iphone 3GS not turning ON? Please help

My Iphone 3GS is not turning ON.I have tried doing everything(pressing POwer and Home Button for long time etc)
Can anyone please help me in this regard?

Try plugging it into a wall outlet for at least 10 minutes to see if the battery is just dead.
If no luck, try forcing recovery mode... (you'll have to restore the device)
Press and hold the Home button and connect to iTunes, release the Home button when you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen which shows the iTunes Music symble and a USB cable. iTunes should then detect the device in recovery mode.

IPhone 3GS Not Turning On After Being Dropped

I dropped my 3GS on a tile floor today (NOT in water)and now its malfunctioning.
When I plug it into the wall charger it turns on an i get this screen: http://i53.tinypic.com/29zsvhx.png
I can only make emergency calls.
I can also click this little i and it says: *IMEI: unknown ICCD: unknown*
I have no clue what this means.
Whenever I unplug it from the wall the screen automatically goes black and i get this: http://i53.tinypic.com/2utnuol.jpg
The screen works fine when its plugged into the wall and there are no black spots where there isn't a picture.
When i plug it into the computer, and more specifically iTunes, nothing happens. It doesn't even turn on.
Ive tried doing a hard reset when its plugged into the wall (I cant other wise) and nothing changed, it went back to that same screen in the first picture.
I cant for the life of me figure out whats wrong with this thing, help?

It's broken. Probably beyond repair.
IF there is no visible sign of damage, they might cover it under warranty, if it's still under warranty. Otherwise, you're probably going to have to investigate 3rd party repair or just get a new phone.

IPhone 5 not turning on and is stuck in recovery mode

First off i have an 32gb iphone 5 which is running ios 7.0.4.
Last week my iphone kept crashing and restarting by itself. then, sometime in the night the other day it went into recovery mode and the screen looked like this
http://www.copytrans.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/iphone-recovery-mode-io s-7.png
I used TinyUmbrella to fix this and the phone went back to normal until the next day, when it suddenly turned off in my hand (whilst at 100%) and wouldnt turn on (with a black screen). i tried a hard reset but that didn't work. I connected it to my computer which said that it was in recovery mode and i needed to restore it. i tried this as my last option to make it work but when it begins to restore the computer tells me that it is waiting for iphone, while the iphone stays at 0. When i click restore is the only time my iphone screen lights up. the phone does not move and eventually i am forced to do a hard reset to stop it. then the screeen goes back to black and won't turn on until i restore, then everything happens again.
I have tried DFU mode but when i do it my phone disappers from itunes (in recovery mode) and comes back when i let go of all buttons.
Is there anything else i can do?

IPhone will not turn on after restore:

Hi guys, I tried to update my iPhone and it wouldn't update, so I restored it then there was an error (1015) so I tried to turn on my iPhone but it kept displaying the screen it does as if it were connected to itunes (even though I disconnected it). So, I tried to restore it again, same thing happened! Now it won't even load up again - As soon as press the button for it to turn on, it gets past the Apple logo bit then goes straight to the screen as if it were connected to itunes again! Really frustrating as I just bought it on Wednesday. Any helpful information would be amazingly appreciated! Thanks.

It sounds a lot like the phone was 'hacked' to unlock it. This has been known to cause permanent damage that can not be reversed. You can try a hard reset. Hold power and home together for 20-30 seconds. It should display the Apple logo and boot.
If it does not, you may as well just buy a new, legitimately unlocked phone or one that works with your carrier.
Discussing hacked or jailbroken devices is a violation of the terms of service here. That's about all we can advise. There are no 'parts' you can change that will fix this.

My iPhone 3gs sudden turned off and after a few hard resets, and plugged in over night... still nothing. What else can I do?

The phone was not dropped or wet, but jut went off, it's charged all night and still after a few hard resets it will not switch on? is it dead?

Sounds like you need a new battery. My 3GS got the point of just turning off rather than shutting itself down properly so I knew due to the age of the phone it was the battery.
I got an ebay battery replacement for £12 + a set of tools for the job for about £4.
But please note relpacing the battery is not for the faint hearted!

IPhone is not turning on and will not be recognized in iTunes

My screen was cracked recently, and my iPhone was left outside for 6 hours in the early morning/morning hours. (6am-11am)
Device was not rained on, however, I think the elements (humidity, heat) may have affected the phone in some way because, when I brought my phone in and tried to turn it on, it would not power on. I figured the battery was dead so I charged for two hours without touching.
No battery charge/low battery/apple logo will appear on the phone. Phone will not charge and is also unable to be recognized in iTunes after attempt at connecting to the computer. No combination of lock button/home button pressing is getting a response.
I am not really in the position to take it in to get replaced as I do not think it is under warranty, or it's possible the warranty is expired if it is.
Is there any hope, or should I start my goodbyes?

If the hard rest isn't working then it sounds like its not going to turn on. Accidently damage isn't covered in you limited hard ware warranty. The iPhone 4 and below is 149$ to replace and iPhone 4s is 199$
