I have an iPhone 5 that goes from DRU to Recovery Mode. I can't get out or restore?
Can anyone tell me if there is a way to re-install the OS or should I just take a HAMMER to it?
See this support document for unable to restore. If you can't update or restore your iOS device You may have to do it more than once.

I have an iPhone 5s that no longer makes nor receives phone call, the time will never stay corrected. Anyone with any thoughts?
samjohns146,
Making sure you can use your phone when you need it is certainly a concern of every consumer. I am sorry to hear you are having trouble with your phone but you have reached the right place for assistance. Has your phone completed any recent software updates at all? Let's try resetting the network settings http://vz.to/1ovdCBD to see if that resolves the issue. Please keep us posted on the outcome.

I was updating my iPhone 3g from iOS 4.1 to 4.2.1 when suddenly I lost network connection and the process failed. I have since tried to restore my iPhone 3g with no luck. I keep getting the error code 2009. Which instructs me to check my computer is up to date and all third party security software are turned off. I have done all these pulled out all usb devices but for the one that is my internet modem. I am running Windows XP Pro SP2 on HP DC500 minitower. How do I get out of restore mode. Thank you kindly.
Not sure if you were told what error 2009 is caused by so I'll let you know if you havn;t been informed. In the article http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694 is says:
Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software. If the errors persist on another computer and known-good USB cable, the device may need service. -
Is it possible to get my iPhone 5c out of recovery mode?
If the iPhone is in recovery mode simply due to a software issue (ie: a failed iOS update), it's very easy to get it out of recovery mode. It just needs to be restored.
If the owner is selling it and the only problem he/she mentions is that it's in recovery mode, it's very likely there are some other issues also. It could have a hardware problem that the owner is not revealing or is unaware of. It may also have been jailbroken and this can permanently brick the phone.
Best not purchase it as the odds of you ending up with a very colorful paperweight are high.

my iphone 4s is in recovery mode somehow- that what itunes says. how can i restart it without restoring it. it was never back up yet and i dont want to loose information from it. itunes says all info will be erased once restored. help pls.
If your phone is in recovery mode, the data is already lost. Hopefully, if you've been using your phone as intended and have been synching and backing up frequently, your data loss will be minimal.

Hey...my iphone 4s suddenly goes blank and apparently enters in DFS or recovery mode and it doesen't work anymore.I have to turn it on but sometimes only starts if a pres home button+power for 10 sec or more.It's really annoying since i always have to watch and see if it's on or not.Have any of you experienced problems like this??
This has nothing to do with Apple, as Apple does not make the apps.
This is the decision of the app maker.
Contact those app makers and ask them why they do this. -
I have an iPhone 4S, seems to be stuck in recovery mode
i have an iphone 4s stuck in recovery mode, i have tried restoring in recovery and dfu mode, i have also tried custom ipsw's and still nothing, first it was returning a 21 error now its returning a 2001 error! really starting to fustrate me now!
Be good to know what the diagnostic results are.
I've also just run into an issue where I couldn't restore an iPod with a corrupt file system, and the "super fix" in that linked article wasn't working for me. I've run across a potentially useful workaround.
iPod Classic went on the fritz today just after syncing. Couldn't restore via iTunes, kept getting 1439 errors, Windows wouldn't format as FAT32, claimed the "Volume is too big for FAT32". Finally tracked down EaseUS Partition Master Home Edition (Free) and formatted as FAT32 with 128k clusters. The iPod is filling back up again. Might be worth a shot here...

I accidently deletes all my music files from iTunes on my PC laptop. Can I get them back using my iPad mini Retina that was synced just before I deleted the files? I am a bit old fashioned, so all of my music has been imported from my CD,s, not purchased from iTunes store. I could re-import, but almost 5,000 songs. Especially when they are sitting there on the iPad.
Yes, if they were purchased from iTunes. If they were CD's you copied to your iTunes library, then synced to your iPad, you may be forced to redownload the CDs again.
Connect your iPad to your computer via USB and with iTunes open wait for your iPad to recognized on the left side of the iTunes screen. Right click your iPad once and a dialog box will apear. Choose Transfer Purchases and the music apps, etc., you purchased will transfer to your iTunes library on your computer. -
I have an iphone 4 and had it unlocked by att now i can't get it to work unles plugged in?
I have an iPhone 4 and just had it unlocked by Att. It now only works when plugged in?
HELP!1. Charge with AC adaptor for 1 hour
2. Restore in iTunes as NEW (without using a backup)
3. If it still won't work off power, there is a battery or hardware failure. Take it to Apple or whoever provides iPhone service in your country. -
I have an iPhone 4, I tried to download iOS 7 from iTunes tonight. I made sure my iTunes was up to date and everything, and while it was downloading iOS7 my screen went black and the iTunes symbol with the USB cord popped up onto it and in my iTunes tab, it said that it detected an iPhone in recovery mode and to restore/update it. I've tried it twice already, resetting my laptop twice and I don't know what to do someone please help!
I think this could help. Also, there are links to other posts for a bunch of possible soultions. I'd try this first. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

iTunes could not recover my iPad mini and gave out the error message 3194. What should I do?
Now when I plug my phone into my PC, iTunes treats my phone as new or restore from previous back up version. I plugged the phone into my PC before and used iTunes to back it up at leat once. When I click to access my phone, iTunes asked for my permission and on the phone screen displayed 'trust this computer'? How weird. No 'back up' option because iTunes still think my phone is new.
