I iphone 3g(s) is stuck on recovery mode.

Recently my iphone 3g(s) has been shutting off randomly and cant turn back on untill i recharge it even though it was at 100%. Two days ago its shut off and is stuck on recovery mode. I tried restoring it but i got an error. I try to restart the iphone again but im always on recovery mode. Its been 2 days and still in recovery mode.

90% of the time that error comes up it is because the phone is Jailbroken.

    If you didn't back it up, your data is gone. There is no "solution" after the fact.

    Hello Meysam321,
    After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help with your device. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice for the issue you are experiencing:
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors - Apple Support
    Check for hardware issues
    Related errors: 1, 3, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 20, 21, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 34, 35, 36, 37, 40, 1000, 1002, 1004, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1667, or 1669.
    These errors mean that your device or computer may have a hardware issue that's preventing the update or restore from completing.
    Check that your security software and settings aren't preventing your device from communicating with the Apple update server.
    Then try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good.
    Confirm that your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers.
    If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

  • Iphone Unknown Error 40 stuck in recovery mode

    Hi,
    My question is... if my iphone is stuck in recovery mode and I return it to the shop I bought it from and they give me my money back/replace it etc, if they then do get the phone to work will they be able to see all my data/photos/messages etc? Or will it only restore personal data if the phone is restored from my itunes?
    I updated my Iphone 4 via Itunes yesterday and it's now stuck in recovery mode, every time I try to restore the phone it gets to "waiting for iphone" then Unknown error 40 appears.
    I have tried the suggestions here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    I am going to take it to the apple store genius next week, but first am returning it to the shop I bought it from as they want to see if they can fix it (it was unlocked when I bought it, they claimed it was an apple unlocked phone but I am concerned it was in fact unlocked by them and this is why I am having problems).  Hence my question being, will they be able to restore it to my data without access to my itunes to back it up from?  Will it just be a factory setting reset if they fix it (which I'd prefer)?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Fkaram,
    Sorry to say I haven't found a solution (after hours of searching!) and have bought an android moto g. The only difference from yours is that I replaced the dock connector as I kept getting error 4014, which turned it on after being off for three weeks, and then went to error 40.
    If you haven't got a warranty, I can only suggest replacing the dock connector. Its cheap (£5) and pretty easy to fix. I only tried this because changing the leads didn't work, but I kept getting the faulty leads error (4014+40)
    Good luck!
    ps - check for any bent pins or if there is a red/coloured light in the connector itself. I didn't see any bent pins so was lucky the replacement actually did something

  • How would i fix my iPhone 4 that is stuck in recovery mode and wont properly restore with error code 21?

    I've already updated my iTunes to the latest version available for PC. The phone is stuck in recovery mode and if I disconnect it from the computer it goes black and then cycles in the reboot screen.  All im trying to do is restore to factory settings.

  • My iPhone 4 16GB is stuck in recovery mode.

    I started having problems with the iPhone cutting off by itsself and not cutting back on. I tried to reset by holding the home screen and the power button down and it did nothing to help. I went to plug it into iTunes and I tried to restore it. It went through the whole process before I got to the 'Waiting for iPhone' part and then it said the iPhone couldn't be restored. Please help!

    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.

  • I dropped my iphone and now its stuck on recovery mode.

    i dropped my iphone on the kitchen floor and it went completely off. Now i got it on to show something on the screen, but its just stays only on recovery mode. I plug phone into itunes to try to restore and after the restoring process is complete, it gives me a error -1. Then goes right back to recovery mode. Does any of you know how i can fix this problem and get my itunes to read the phone so i can restore it please?

    Make an appointment at the genius bar. An out of warranty replacement will cost you $199 if you didn't buy AppleCare+.
    There is no magic that can fix broken hardware.

  • IPhone won't update to 6.1 and is stuck in recovery mode

    I attempted to update my iPhone from 6.0.1 to 6.1 today; however, in doing so iTunes informed me that the update could not be verified. Upon receiving this message, I thought that my phone would just go back to how it was, but that wasn't the case. The iPhone 4s is now stuck in recovery mode. It just keeps shutting down and going back to the apple logo. In addition to this, I am unable to put the phone in DFU mode due to the fact that my power button randomly stopped working a few weeks ago. Any ideas on how to regain use of my iPhone? Any help is greatly appreciated.

    I'm having the same problem, I tried to update to whatever the last version was as I hadn't got that 33mb update yet, during the process my phone froze. I tried to unfreeze my phone by giving it a hard reboot (holding the home and power button) but now my phone is stuck in recovery mode.
    I tried various programs that provide a "recovery mode fix" none worked.
    Manually downloaded the latest ipsw as I failed five times from 5AM to try and get iTunes to download the latest version and restore my phone.
    When I try to restore to iOS 8 I get "this iPhone could not be restored (error 2003)" and it has been like this for 12 hours. 12 hours I've been without a phone and all I wanted to do was update my software? What a joke. I have no idea how I'm going to fix this as literally everything I have tried has failed.
