    By "sos mode" do you mean recovery mode?  If so, you have to connect it to iTunes and restore it.

  • HT4623 I ran the IOS 7 update and now my phone is stuck in recovery mode. Help?

    I ran the IOS 7 update on my phone and now it is stuck in recovery mode. On my phone it shows a cord and the I Tunes logo.  When I connect to I Tunes it tells me "itunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes."  Then it only gives me the option to Restore iPhone.  But when I click on this it gives me the message that it is going to reset my phone to factory settings.  Doesn't this mean I will loose everything?  What do I do?  Is there a way to fix this without losing everything? 
    Help?
    Thank you,
    Nicole

  • My iPhone 4 s is stuck in recovery mode, please help!!

    My phone got stuck in recovery mode while updating.  The restore won't help in my iTunes. 

    After playing with it a bit more and holding down my home button I got the phone to restore. But now, it won't power back on unless plugged into the charger. And even then, it's stuck in recovery mode and i can't get it out. PLEASE HELP ! I am not under warranty and can't afford the Apple Store's repair prices.

  • IPhone 3G Stuck in Recovery mode (need a fast help!)

    WHile I was updating my iPhone, the progression bar got stuck at around 10%, so I stupidly unplugged the iPhone, witch went into recovery mode. So now, when I press the Recover and Update thing, it again gets stuck at around 10%. So I'm kinda left without a phone, witch I seriously need :/
    Usefull info: The iPhone was unlocked around 2 weeks ago, and this was my first connection to iTunes, witch automaticly updated my phone. The version before the update was 4.00 I and it was updating to 4.00.1 ( I think). The iPhone was empty, default music, 4 pictures(taken with the camera) and a GPS. The iPhone was bought around (3 weeks - 1 month) ago.
    Sorry about my English, and I would serously be happy if I could fix this in 3-5 days D:
    Thank you

    Hi, download "Rec boot". I used it on advice from Lifehacker.com, so I could downgrade my iPhone 3G to 3.1.3 from IOS 4.0.
    It forces the iDevice out of recovery mode.
    Google Lifehacker - how to downgrade iPhone for links and instructions.
    Hope this helps!

  • Ipod is stuck at recovery mode. need professional help.

    This is the second time this is happening to me.
    i have a fourth generation iOS 4 IPod.
    for the second time, it turned black and didnt came back "alive".
    i've read other forums and tried everything, including:
    holding the center and upper button for 15-25 seconds
    trying to restore on other computers
    and such as....
    nothing helped my ipod.
    when i connect it to the USB Itune's message is "Itunes has found an Ipod in recovery mode, you must restore the Ipod before using it"
    and the problem is. i cant restore it....
    every time i restore the white bar that shows on my ipod (which is his only signal of life) just sort of becomes white screen, turns to black. and itunes reply with "the Ipod "ipod" could not be restored, an unknown error occurred with a random number after the "occurred" lately its only 28. but it keeps changing. i already got a new Ipod and i Live in israel so getting to the nearest apple store is no easy solution. any professional response will be cherished.
