IOS 7 update interrupted, phone won't operate

So I had to delete stuff off my phone to get enough space for the update. it started updating and after an hour it had a small amount left. I was told it can take up to 2 hours, but I was at work and had to leave so I disconnected it thinking it would cancel the update and I could start over at home. Well now it won't turn on and the image that displays when I connect to ituens is says I still need to connect. Then it says I have to restore it and wipe it out. I'm not sure it synced all the way so Im afraid I will lose some data that I don't want to. Apple support ***** because it will only let me chat with a rep if I have the serial number. The phone is stuck and the box is from the original phone I had that died, when I got it replaced I never got a box so I cant get access to a serial number. What the **** do I do? I have no other phone and verizon and apple are closed. It says my version is the lates and won't update until 10/3. What do I do?

You will find your serial number by connecting to iTunes.
Try restarting your device holding down the sleep/wake button with the home button. If that doesn't work, try restarting holding the sleep/wake with the vol. up (+) button.

  • After updating to IOS 8, my phone won't recognize my TV.

    After updating to IOS 8, my phone won't recognize my TV via AV cable.

    Same problem here on four devices, two of which aren't even running iOS 7. App updates just disappear from the app store app and the app tells me all my apps are up to date when they aren't.
    This problem fixed itself on the iPhone 4 this morning after I synced it with iTunes last night.  My iPad 3 is now listing app updates, but it stalls when I try to download them, so I'm updating via iTunes now.
    I suspect this is a server problem on Apple's end (I noticed iTunes match isn't working this morning either....). Try syncing your phone with iTunes in the meantime or updating each app individually through the purchased app list (just click on it and you can update on a per app basis).

  • After updating my iphone 4 to iOS 7 my phone won't charge

    after updating my iphone 4 to iOS 7 my phone won't charge what do I do? They need to fix this like now.

    I have exact same issue. And it is annoying - VERY!!

  • I currently have a DROID RAZR M and I'm 1 year into my 2 year contract.  Since the Kitkat update, the phone won't stay charged and it's very buggy.  I know this is not Verizons fault but it's also not mine. I would like to change my phone to an iPhone 5s

    I currently have a DROID RAZR M and I'm 1 year into my 2 year contract.  Since the Kitkat update, the phone won't stay charged and it's very buggy.  I know this is not Verizons fault but it's also not mine. I would like to change my phone to an iPhone 5s and keep my same plan but switch to the Edge program. Is this possible? I don't think I should have to pay an early termination fee or anything like that since my phone has become almost unusable. I know under normal circumstances you have to wait 2 yrs to upgrade but due to the update and the poor service I'm now getting I hope Verizon can make an exception. Thank you.

    How recently did you switch?  If it's less than 60 days, then Verizon simply reinstates your previous account.  The fact that you were on the EDGE plan and mailed the devices back, and they apparently are somewhere in the system, could cause complications, and it might just work out that you just go back on the same plan and they set you up with the same devices.  I'm not sure how it will go - but since you are still being billed for the devices... 

  • Latest Revel IOS update crashes and won't install

    I have been using Revel v 2.3.1-548 on iPhone 5 and iPad 3 without any issues. An update was released today (29 June) and this won't install and crashes the app on both devices so I have had to go back to the old version. Anyone else having this problem?

  • Since the iOS update my phone does not send emails how can I fix this?

    Since the iOS update I cannot send emails from my phone, is there a fix for this?

    Do you use popular hosts like; gmail, windows mail live or yahoo ? If it's your own / work domain, you might want to go to settimgs and re-enter your password under the outgoing mail server.

  • TS2529 iOS update throws phone into recovery mode - HELP

    The current iOS update seems to have thrown the phone into recovery mode now requiring restoration through iTunes. Of course I don't have photo stream on and fear losing all my photos. Any way around this?

    Reset, hold both the home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to restart. If this works great. If not you may have to Restore the iPhone to get it working again. If you decide to do this you may even have to use DFU Mode to Restore. Here are the steps for DFU. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power button, after exactly 10 seconds release the Power Button, keep holding the Home button until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds time. If the iPhone screen is black, blank this is DFU Mode. Click the Restore button of iTunes.

  • Did the itunes and ios updates and phone wont work.

    PLease help.
    I did the itunes and ios updates and it came up with something about apple recovery mode.
    The phone will not work and its not being recognised in iTunes.
    What do I do? I think I may have made it worse because I've tried to reinstall the previous version of itunes as was suggested elsewhere.
    Thanks

    Any specific error messages?
    Try switching off your seurity software and restore the device http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    NB: using that article will erase everything so make sure you have a backup
    try restoring on another computer if this fails, and if that doesn't work either, the device needs hardware repair.

  • Since the last update my phone won't vibrate. all settings are correct?

    Since I last updated my phone the vibrate function will not work. Can anyone help me?

    Is vibrate turned on?
    Basic troubleshooting from the Users Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • Ios 7.1 update interrupted, phone stuck with apple logo

    My husband just bought a new 5s today and was updating to ios 7.1 while plugged into his Mac.  He knocked the phone off the desk as it was updating and it came unplugged.  Now the phone is stuck with the apple logo on the screen with the progress bar below it.  He can't shut it off and iTunes doesn't recognize it when he plugged it back in.
    What should we try in order to restore it to functioning again?
    He's pretty p*ssed at himself right now and is phone less.  Not real pleasant around here. <g>
    Thanks for any help you can give me.
    Paula

    Try this:
    Connect the phone to the computer. Hold the home and power buttons at the same time until the screen goes black and then the Apple logo reappears. At this point, release the power button but continue holding the home button. iTunes should pop up telling you it detected an iPhone in Recovery Mode. Follow the prompts to restore.

  • Sony Bridge for Mac wanted an update, and phone won't switch on now!

    Hello
    Today I was trying to transfer some files from my phone to my Mac. When I connected my phone the Sony Bridge for Mac has asked me if I would like to update so I clicked yes and it began updating, with my phone connected. Then out of sudden, my phone switched off and it won't switch back on. It will only vibrate and show the Sony logo but won't go any futher. I tried the combination of vol+ and on/off button and many others, but nothing works!! I need my phone very urgently at work, and I really don't want to loose any files!!! 
    Please help!
    Solved!

    It sounds more like you had a system firmware update and you may have disconnected your phone as this process was happening - All you can do I'm afraid to say is a system repair but this will erase all data on your phone

  • Software update and phone won't switch on

    Hi, I just updated my BB Z10, let the phone restart and now it won't get past the BB part of setup, showing 100%. I have tried taking my battery out and it still doesn't start up. Any ideas? Fiona

    Hi Princessfee82,
    Welcome to the support community!
    Was the software update interupted at all? Was it a wireless update?
    Could you please try connecting to a power source and try removing and reinserting the battery again? When you do this, is there any change? Do you see any LED light on the BlackBerry Z10 smartphone?
    I look forward to your response.

  • Software update now phone won't synch!!!

    Hi!
    Can anymore please help me!
    So i have the latest iPhone 5S, it stated it needed updating in software, so I updated it to iOS 7.1 today, but not via my itunes, it was just updated on the phone.
    The software updated without any problems at all, but when I have gone to link it to my Macbook, it has stated that it is unable to start synching, this has happened every time, has anyone else had problems with this!
    Thank You!!!!

    Actually, it would explain why the battery depletes. If the device is constantly trying to search for the network it will run the battery down quite quickly. I'm skeptical that the sim card will fix it since Verizon doesn't use a sim card in the US. The sim card is only for international roaming. I don't know what happened during the update but you may need to reload the OS on the device.
    And, "POS?" I've had my Z10 since launch day and love it.

  • 6300 trouble with updating.. phone won't turn on n...

    Hi guys, my dad got himself a 6300 a few months ago, and all was well until recently when the screen would randomly decide to go blank.. the phone would work, just the screen went blank.
    Today, he bought himself a second 6300, and me being the nosy person I am, I wanted to update the firmware (with the screen blank mind you!) to try and fix this problem.
    So halfway through updating, my dad's laptop freezes and the blue screen shows up. Now the phone is, put it this way, f#^$ed. It won't turn on or respond to anything I do. Would there be a way to fix this all?

    Yes, it must be properly flashed by flashing machine at Nokia Care Center in your area. It will be under warranty anyway.Message Edited by delixis on 20-Nov-200703:39 AM
