Why is it so difficult to answer simple questions with accurate information?

My iphone is stuck in restore mode. I plugged into macbook and ran a restore and it is still stuck

iphone is stuck in restore mode when i did a rebook. I hooked up to my macbook and ran a restore. Itunes ran through the restore and now it is still stuck in restore mode.

If it won't restore in the regular restore mode, you may want to try putting it in DFU mode if you haven't already. Instructions for this are linked below.

Put it in this mode, then do a restore again through your computer.
Hope this helps you out!

Iphone 5s stuck at restore mode?

My Iphone 5s is stuck at restore mode I have tried numerous methods to bring it back to life. Its not working I really do not want to loose all my pictures and apps? Can anyone help me with this issue?. Connecting to Itunes is not working also tried restore mode which cancels as there seems to be an error/ connection lost.

If you've not previously backed it up, your data is already lost. Try this method:
Turn your device off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your device and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a device in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.

IPhone 3Gs stuck in restore mode. Unknown error 1015

Error: "iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1015)".
I'm in Tanzania and was trying to jail break my phone with one of those online download programs that say they can break any iPhone. 100% guaranteed! Well, my phone is now locked up in 'need of restore' through iTunes. BUT, it won't restore. The error 1015 keeps returning at the end of the restore process. I'm up to date on iTunes and iPhone software. Can anyone help me? I'm stuck here in Africa with an 11 hour time shift from Apple tech support.

1015 error: There are 4 possible causes of this error:
The activation server truly is unavailable. Rare, usually fixed within minutes.
Your antivirus or firewall or router's firewall is blocking access to
gs.apple.com on ports 80 and 443.
Your iPhone is jailbroken or otherwise hacked.
The computer you connected to during the restore/update was
used to hack/jailbreak some other iOS device, and its
network database was corrupted during the process.

I have an Iphone 3Gs stuck in restore mode after full restore?

Hello, I was trying to restore my Iphone 3Gs to 4.3.2 firmware. I got it all restored then the message on itunes popped up saying the phone would reboot and not to unplug it. Well I didnt and after the messaged left about three seconds later itunes popped up and said a phone has been detected to be restored. I have been through this process five times already. How do I get it out of DFU or recovery/restore mode?

Iphone 3GS stuck in restore mode...PLEASE HELP!!

Yesterday my microphone stopped working on my phone. I called tech support. They told me to run a restore on my phone (which I had thought I had done but didn't). They told me I would have to pay $200 to replace the phone since I am 30 days outside of my warrenty. Needless to say, when I got home from work, I figured out I didn't do the restore (I'm not the most tech savy person out there).
I have a 16G 3GS and it has been in restore mode for about 6 1/2 hours now with no progress. I do not know what to do! Nothing is happening. I use a PC with Window's Vista and have ISO 4.3.3 installed on my phone. The silver apple with unmoving progress bar are on my phone. I've tried a few fixes I've found and could understand on here with no success (ie. trying to get the computer to access the phone to jump start the process again). I don't know what else to do! I know I don't want to unplug the phone from the computer. Is there a way to stop the restore process and just reinstall the phone to the previous sync with out completing the restore? I have not gotten any error messages.
Any help in laymens terms would be much appriciated!

If this happens to anyone...follow the steps in the above article. If the phone freezes in the restore mode again follow the steps again BUT unplug the USB from the phone, then the computer and use a different USB plug on the computer. About 20 minutes later, phone is restored, synced back to my last sync and my microphone works! Only 8 hours in total but at least its for something!

IPhone 3g stuck in restore mode, not detected by computer

while i was restoring my iphone, my computer died. and im stuck with this.(see picture) it can't be hard reset and be detected by my computer. please help me!!

Hello there MKkhann,
I would recommend resetting your iPhone. This will not take it out of recovery mode, but should 'unstick' it. It may take more than 1 attempt to be successful:
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
From: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

IPhone 4s stuck in restore mode. Error (-1)

I saw a few hours ago that my iPhone doesn't play any sounds over the speakers. I tried to switch it off and on again but it didn't work. Then i tried to restore it with iTunes. While it was restoring my iPhone it also loaded iOS 5.0.1. After some minutes an error occured (-1) and the restore stopped. Now my iPhone always says that U have to connect to iTunes and then wants to do a restore. I'm now stuck in an endless loop and can't get the iPhone out of it.
Did somebody have the same problem or does somebody know a solution?
I'd be really thankful.

Unfortunately the restore did not solve the connectivity problem, but it made it even worse. The phone was not connecting to the carrier at all, constantly showing "Searching...". I tried another restore, this time it failed on three different computers (one of them was a fresh iTunes installation)... Strange, that it worked once.
@Unshaven: Multiple combinations of Power and Home button did not work either. Seems to be bricked now. I think I have to return it to Apple ...
Btw. Windows iTunes showes some log errors like 'getenv radio-error' failed and DoesDriverNameMatchDeviceID failed.
Any ideas welcome also regarding the issue of loosing connectivity to the carrier...

Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. Also, discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps under Advanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations. If you do not want to remove the IPSW in the original user, try restoring in a new administrator user. If the issue remains, Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.

This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode, put it into Recovery Mode.
Restore and wait for the error.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
Try to restore again.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
