Apple recommends backing up the data when you're getting the battery replaced by them. So I assume that you will likely lose the data during this process.
Will the data on my iPhone be preserved?
No, during the service process all data on your iPhone will be erased. Before obtaining service, it is important to back up your data using iCloud or iTunes. Apple is not responsible for the loss of information while servicing your iPhone and does not offer any data transfer service. During service, Apple may exchange your iPhone with an iPhone that is new or equivalent to new in performance and reliability.
Following service, your iPhone may have a newer operating system (iOS) version and you will need torestore your data using the method used to back it up (iCloud or iTunes). As a result, you may also need to update your App Store applications to ensure compatibility with the newer iOS. If you experience a problem with an application purchased from the App Store, check to see if an update is available or contact the application vendor directly.

  • My iPhone 3gs is stuck on apple logo even after a restore on DFU mode, what can I do?

    Hi guys, I just got an iPhone 3gs from my girlfriend and it was working perfectly, I restore it from the phone by erasing all data on it, and it wont boot after that, it is stuck on the apple logo, I've tried restoring it in recovery mode and even in DFU mode, but it's not working, what should I do?

    If you live near an apple store make an appointment.  They will perform a DFU restore using known good equipment.
    If that doesn't work you probably have liquid damage.

    Greetings bruce0bruce,
    It seems your device is not functioning, and the Sleep/Wake button isn't working as well. Based on the information you have provided, it appears your iPhone needs to be serviced. The following link should help you get started with the process and has links with additional information on topics such as warranty and service pricing, battery replacement, and express replacement service.

  • Iphone 6 its stuck in apple logo

    my iphone 6 its stuck in Apple logo how do i open it pleas i need halp!!!!

    Hi, denismarko,
    you can solve this problem by putting your iPhone into recovery mode and restoring it from backup.
    Connect the USB cable that came with your iPhone to your computer, but not to your iPhone.
    Turn your iPhone off. If the phone won't turn off in the traditional manner, just keep holding the buttons until the screen goes dark.
    Once you've turned the device off, press the home button  and plug in the USB cable to the device's dock connector.
    When it turns on, keep pressing the home button until the iTunes logo appears on the screen.
    You'll know the phone is now in recovery mode when a window in iTunes tells you.
    You can then start the restore process by clicking the Restore button in the iTunes window.

  • My iPhone 3GS is stocked on apple logo while restarting my iphone.Do I need to reinstall new IOS on it?Or how can I connect with my itunes again.Thanksssss..

    My iPhone 3GS is stocked on apple logo while restarting my iphone. Do I need to reinstall new IOS on it?Or how can I connect with my itunes again.Thanksssss..

    I having the same issue about the and iTunes says "The iPhone cannot be restored at this time because the iPhone software update server could not be contacted or is temporarily unavailable.". I've had the  iPhone 3GS since it came out. It was working fine until I just tried to  update it. It has never been hacked or jailbroken. We and a few others are having  the same issue then it is more than likely that this is an update issue.  I took mine to the Apple store and the tech tried to update it and he  came to the same problem and told me he couldn't update it. My  assumption is that we are not the only one's with this issue and that if  there was a way to update it to the update before this last one it  might be a solution. I don't know how to get the previous update. Apple  probably is aware of the problem, and hasn't come up with a solution  yet. Or, enough people haven't complained yet. The tech suggested that  there might be something wrong with the phone itself, but that couldn't  be since it was working perfectly before I updated it and others are  having the same issue. It is highly unlikely that a lot of people are  not having the same hardware issue all of a sudden at the same time.

    My iPhoto wont display and i cant upload pics or even look at my library. how can i fix this?

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what do you see in the iPhoto window when iPhoto opens?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?
    Come on.  Give us something to work with here.

  • I erased my iphone 3gs and now only apple logo reveals..What to do ?Please ppl i need some help!

    First of all im from Estonia so im sorry about my bad english. The thing is that i wanted to sell my iphone 3gs, but when i erased all content and settings my battery went so low it shut down. So i tryed to turn iphone on while it was charging and only thing i saw was apple logo loading. Then, when it was loaded it restarted and came apple logo without loading and then again with loading and so on. Then i thought i can update my iphone or something with itunes and i plugged in to my computer and itunes cant find it either. And i thought maybe it needs to load for a long time so i left it to load for about 18 hrs. And its still loading ... So people please help me! Thank you.

  • Iphone 3GS keep loading in apple logo after restore to 4.3.5

    Hi all,
    I have an problem in my iphone 3GS. It couldn't boot up to lockscreen and always stuck in apple logo but it able to sync to the itunes. I try many times in restoring to latest firmware 4.3.5 in DFU and recovery mode and also uses different PC, the problem still not resolved. Anyone can advise?

    I would try forcing into recovery mode and then restoring again to see if this helps. If not then it would need to be serviced by repair or replacing the device which will not be covered under the warranty due to the liquid.

  • How do you stop iPhone from being stuck at Apple logo?

    I've been searching around the web for answers as to how to turn on my iPhone 3GS. It is 3.1.2, if that matters. Mostly, I've found that people say to hold the power and home button for 10 seconds, but that doesn't work for me. The screen turns black, I turn it back on, and it's stuck at the Apple logo for the 1234th time. My friend jailbroke it once for me, but all of my apps are legit -- I haven't downloaded any apps from Cydia. I have all the iTunes emails to prove it. My phone won't do anything but show that it's low battery, stop at the apple screen, or stay at the black screen when it's off. What am I supposed to do? The iPhone won't even show up on iTunes, either. I've tried using both the computer and regular outlets to turn the iPhone on without success. The Apple support doesn't help either... Any help?

    This has been a recurring issue for me for the past two weeks. Since I've had my iPhone for 9 months with no prior problems, I'm wondering if it has anything to do with the 3.1.2 patch. It seems to happen when I use the search screen on the iPhone.
    To get you iPhone working again you'll have to put it in recovery mode and do a restore. You can find instructions online, but none of them are clear enough so it took me a while to figure out how to activate this recovery mode.
    1. Quit iTunes
    2. Disconnect dock/usb connector from iPhone and from computer
    3. Turn off iPhone by holding home and power buttons (the iPhone will either turn off completely or reboot, leaving you stuck at the Apple logo again. either outcome is fine.)
    4. Reconnect the iPhone to the computer with dock/usb cable
    5. Hold the home and power buttons again for about **1 minute**
    6. At some point, the iPhone should show Connect to iTunes (otherwise, try repeating these steps again until you get this screen.)
    7. Now launch iTunes, which should tell you your iPhone is in recover mode and and to be restored. Click restore and find something to do for the next few hours.
    As I type this, I'm in the process of restoring my iPhone for the THIRD time. I hope you fair better.

  • IPhone 6 plus stuck with apple logo, won't turn off!

    I got my new iPhone 6 plus today. I set it up as a new phone I couldn't restore from backup as I needed iOS 8.1 to restore the backup of my 5s.
    So after upgrading to 8.1 I reset my 6 plus to restore the backup and now its stuck on the apple logo.
    I can't turn it off to get it into recovery mode, I've tried holding the home and power buttons, the device appears to restart, after a few minutes it flashes on a red screen for a split second then its back to the apple logo. I've restarted multiple times and same thing keeps happening.
    iTunes won't recognise the device so I'm really at a loss to what I can do from here. Can't get into my local Apple genius bar until Wednesday and I'd really like it sorted before that.
    Thanks for any help you guys can give.

    Hi there thatgurlwho,
    I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below if your device isn't booting past the Apple Logo.
