HT4623 im unable to make factory restore?

I was unable to make factory restore or recovery mode.Before i was using gevey sim,incidentally i didnt follow procedure then,my iphone 4 not recognising sim.Please help to get my previous software back.
thanks

You are out of luck. Gevey SIMs are illegal, and using them voids the warranty and denies support from Apple and Apple forums. You will have to look elsewhere for a solution, if one exists.

  • Cannot make factory restore on my x130e

    Every time I start factory recovery from F11 recovery menu, I`m getting message "Cannot find the backup files".
    Where can I find (or download) these files? Note, that ThinkPad x130e hasn`t a CD drive.

    I had a similar situation some years ago with an X61s. I called Lenovo support, explained why I couldn't create recovery media on my own and they sent me recovery media at no charge.

    It all depends on the definition of "factory unlocked". If the phone was purchased directly from Apple and the receipt says "Unlocked" then updating or restoring it will leave it unlocked (Apple never uses the term "factory unlocked" as there is no such thing; phones are unlocked at activation time). Similarly, if it had been locked to a carrier and the carrier authorized it to be unlocked, and you went through the unlocking steps they provided, it is permanently unlocked.
    Unfortunately, a lot of the phones sold as "factory unlocked" were actually unlocked by hacking in the "factory" in the basement of some shop somewhere. These phones at best will become locked to the original carrier if restored, and in the worst case will be permanently disabled if restored.

  • I RECEIVED AN ERROR MESSAGE THAT I COULD NOT MAKE OR RECEIVE CALLS AND I HAD TO RESTORE VIA ITUNES.  I HAVE DONE SO AND LOST LOADS OF APPS ETC (MY FAULT FOR NOTBACKING UP) BUT STILL UNABLE TO MAKE OR RECEIVE CALLS.

    Phone is only a few months old and was working fine last night - it ran out of battery but on being charged up this morning it was effectively locked.  I received an error message that I could not make or receive calls and I had to restore via itunes.  I have done so and lost loads of apps etc (my fault for not backing up) but still unable to make or receive calls.  Anyone had anything similar and can advise who I should contact or what I can do.
    Thanks,

    try contacting your carrier and see whats going on.

  • Rescue and Recovery, unable to do a factory restore, no backup found

    Hi I'm trying to do a factory restore on my T510.  I've done it before but for some reason it's saying it can't find the backup files.
    Any idea on what I should do?  

    There1 wrote:
    Nope. lol  Like I said before I restored to factory settings before and I usually just went to rescue and recovery, clicked on don't save anything and factory restore.  I didn't have to insert any type of recovery discs set, do you know why now it's asking me for them?
    I might add that I recently had my T510 sent in for MULTIPLE repairs that were a complete dud.  I have that infamous whine noise smh.  They ended up replacing my hard drive and mistakenly downgraded my OS to 32-bit.  They didn’t know I bought Pro-64 smh.  I told them and showed them that I did purchase 64 when I customized my laptop so they ended up sending me a recovery disc set with the OS and drivers.  I used those to do a factory restore, basically did a clean reinstall right?
    Yeah you should be good. Now would also be a good time to burn another recovery disc set since you can burn one after each restore, this way you will have a backup.

  • HT4623 My new iPad mini won't install the update 7.0.6 until it has finished restoring from the iCloud backup.  What do I do to make the restoration complete? I have been using the mini for about a month.

    I have downloaded iOS 7.0.6 but it will not install until the ipad is finished restoring from the Icloud backup.  I've been using the mini for about a month, so why is it not completely restored?  How do I make the restore process finish?

    When and where was the iPad/charger purchased? It's covered by a 1-year warranty.
    The problem may be the USB cable.

    Apple IPhone is not accepting my security code on my credit card unable to make purchases on my IPhone anymore. Please advise already called my bank so it is a apple problem happening. I was trying to purchase poker chips from world series of poker app.

    My download speed during this test was 6.63 MB so fast enough for the App Store.
    This youtube movie shows what happens: http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=jPa_W0PrL5c
    The App Store is generally very slow.

    Check and see if you've bought any iTunes Gift Cards you don't know about
    Fraudulent iTunes Gift cards are used to make purchases but are associated with a hijacked account so that if traced it's that account holder who'll have to deal with the problems. It was a form of "laundering".
    It's one of the reasons iTunes had stopped issuing those $200 gift cards about a year back since that's one of the uses for them ( The other reason had to do with why you don't, if you're sane, continue with gift card numbers after someone cracks the algorithm. ).
    Another problem was with debit card numbers, usually swiped from a restaurant or Pub, being used for iTunes purchases in the U.K. ( You can find out about that by doing a search of this forum since it was also heavily posted. ) and to buy gift cards for a one time use.
    If someone just hacked his account or his account was compromised further and his debit card number it out in the wild then sudden surprise purchases from the iTunes Store maybe his first warning.
    He has to check his account further.

  • Can't do factory restore & only disks that keep ejecting are the osx install and apps disks

    First of all let me say, this is my first Apple computer and I'm not experienced in forums. Please do not read rudeness into what is actually frustration at searching forever for a solution and trying not to wish I had been talked into an Apple.  With that said....
    I've had my iMac for about a year and a half.  We had lost our internet and were using a hotspot for awhile so we could look for another provider and get online if we needed to.  One day I signed on and, we didn't have an isp mind you, but the browser opened up to the dominant isp in this area saying a virus was detected coming from this iMac address? I thought that was strange and panicked so decided to do what I would on a pc, just restore the whole thing to factory settings.  Everything was going smooth, (my updates were at 10.6.8 at the time)... when I restored I was back at 10.6.2. (osx disk) I was doing systems updates and one apparently hung.... when told to restart, I did... but the computer would never boot back up.  It would turn on.... go to gray screen... then blue screen... then shut off.  I couldn't boot in safe mode, pram reset did nothing, smc reset did nothing, couldn't hold 'd' to get to diagnostics, couldn't boot to recovery... it kept spitting out disks after trying to read them... with all those solutions I found online and nothing helping I had to call Apple... they couldn't help over the phone because Apple Care expired, unless I purchased help... this frustrated me because every where I found my problem and a different solution their Apple Care had expired too.... so had to set an appt at an Apple store.
    So took it in to Apple, just got it back yesterday.  I let them know I was restoring to factory settings so wasn't worried about losing anything.  When I picked it up, I was told no charge... it was a software issue they saw where it hung and fixed it.  I tried to ask questions about the 'software repair' but they didn't seem to want to answer my questions.  It just says 'software repair' on my order. So I asked 'okay, so it's back to factory settings like when I bought it?' I was told yes and I said great that was my goal anyway.  I get home and it's NOT like when I first purchased it or like a factory restore.  Everything I was doing before it crashed is on there. So I'm back to trying to do a factory restore.  But for some reason now, it seems the only disks that keep self ejecting are the osx install and application disks. I still can't do a boot recovery, AHT, or 'c' boot... since the apple disks eject I can't use start up to get to them. 
    I find it odd that both the oxc install disk and applications disk would be damaged at the same time when they both previously worked.  I called the Apple Store where I took it to talk to the geniuses that worked on it because I had a question about the repair they did....
    Apple: I'm sorry we don't offer tech support
    Me: I understand but I had a question about the repair done from there the other day
    Apple: We are just a store and can't answer tech questions
    Me: I understand and get that but since I took my mac to your store to be worked on I thought I could ask the person that worked on it a question about the 'software repair' and meaning and what software was repaired
    Apple: No you will have to set another apt to bring your computer in if you are still having problems
    Me: UGHHHHHH (pulling hair out)
    So (a little late huh?) to make a long story short giving what I stated above:
    Why is it, only the osx install and application disks not working now? They worked before taking it to Apple
    What can I do at this point?
    Can you do a factory restore without disks on a Mac?
    If by chance both disk did for some reason go out, how do I get them replaced?
    If I gave TMI without enough important info let me know.
    My OS X install disk says version 10.6.2 on it
    About this Mac currently says Mac OS X version 10.6.8
    Batteries died on keyboard and mouse so am using usb wired keyboard and mouse
    At some point I had used bootcamp and then later found parallels so I could install a Corel product and keep using... could some windows files be messing something up in there somewhere?
    It used to say Mac OS X Version 10.6.8 and I could have sworn I saw it said 'snow leopard' in there somewhere, now I can't even find that word in search on the computer. Long post I know but trying to set what was going on at the time I took it in.
    I'm not sure what else needs to be added to get this to the correct thread or help.  As I stated my goal is to have it like I just pulled it out of the box for the first time so no solution will scare me off about loss of data. 
    Thanks for any help.

    Wow, sorry to hear of your experience. Seems strange that your disk would just eject like they did. It could be a lot of things but more than likely you just kind of have to start all over.
    What I would do is insert your system disk and instead of going immediately to an install I would go to disk utility and erase the drive. That will erase everything on the disk and give you a new blank disk to start with. After that I would try to reinstall the system. Assuming that goes well then you should be restored to where it was when you purchased it. After that you can reinstall all your applications or personal files. I hope you have good backups.
    I remember one time I was having a similar problem and don't ask my why I did it but I actually could not get it to install a system. I removed both of my ram sticks, shut the computer down for about 10 minutes including unplugging it from the wall plug, then reinstalled the ram, plugged it back in and started up from the system disk and all worked just fine. To this day I have no idea if pulling the ram helped but I have never had to do it since and for some dumb reason that solved the problem I was having, which is the same problem you are having now. Call it voodoo but it worked.
    Good Luck!!

  • I have windows 7,  did a factory restore now new itunes with icloud will not play movies i have download before update

    I  have windows 7, I just had to do a factory restore. I have a click free for a backup for my computer so when i went to restore my couputer all my music and movies are there but  when my power went out ,I want to watch a movie in the new Itunes none of my movies would play. It looks like i had to download them again with icloud and why sose some songs and videos have the icloud on them in the upper right corner if i don't have to download them again?

    Maybe one of these answers will work for you. I found these in Google with "wordpad windows 7 single space" (quotations included):

  • Apple TV 1st gen Factory Restore Problems

    I have an Apple TV 1st generation that I tried to do a factory restore on.  I did not unplug durring the progress bar.  It then started up with the apple, then the opening video with all the tv screens.  It asked me for the language, I selected English, then had me choose the correct internet connection so I typed in the password for our Wi-Fi, then it came up with the code to connect to our home computer and started flashing a new code every 2 seconds.  I unplugged the Apple TV and waited about a minute then plugged back in.  It again had the normal start up, but then after the opening video it began flashing between a screen with the apple then a blank black screen then to a menu screen and cycling through each screen about every 1-2 seconds.  I unplugged again and waited about 10 minutes but then had the same results.  Is there anyway I can do another system restore as I cant get it to stop flashing. 

    I FIXED IT!!!  So here is how to fix your Apple TV 1st generation if you are having the problems listed above.  I am listing it step by step as I have not found the solution to my problem ANYWHERE and I have been looking all day and figured it out myself.  Here we go:
    If you have done a FACTORY RESTORE and it is now flashing different through different screens I recomend doing a FORCED RESTART from the totally awesome guys at MethodShop, here is the link: http://methodshop.com/gadgets/tutorials/appletv-fix/
    If their instructions do not fix your problem here is what I figured out (assuming the diagonstic test says that your Apple TV is working correctly).
    Keep your Apple TV plugged in, and allow it to go to sleep.  It can take up to 45 minutes.  Once it has gone to sleep (the screen will have photos scrolling on the TV) press the MENU button on the remote to wake it up.  The Apple TV will wake up on the MENU screen.  Scroll down to SETTINGS then select SYSTEM UPDATE.  Follow all instructions to update the system to the current update. 
    WARNING: If you take too long once you have woken up the Apple TV it will start freaking out again and you will have to let it go to sleep again.
    I have tried this twice now to make sure the first time was not a fluke and its working perfect now.
    Hope this helps someone else!

  • Do i need to back up all my data on my iphone 4 before i do a factory restore and how do i get all my contact and data back?

    If i do a factory restore will i be able to retreive back all my music, photos, text messages and contacts or will it wipe them for good?

    Restoring the phone wipes is clean as part of the process.  You should read the User Manual to make sure you are using your phone properly so all your data is safe before the restore process.

    Cheers

    Hi @Connor0431 ,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your HP Spectre XT Ultrabook 13-2100ea and issues with the HP Recovery Manager not working correctly. 
    When performing a System restore please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices as they can cause issues.
    Here is a document for troubleshooting HP System Recovery options. You might want to consider doing a Refresh on the system. Please read the document first before doing anything. Make sure you back up your documents and check the Apps you will need to reinstall.
    Hope this helps.
