IOS 8 update failed and set my phone into Resore Mode

Anyone else tried updating to the IOS 8 resulting in the same issue?.  I tried updating it through the phone but due to the amount of space required (4.8GB) I couldn't as my phone was filled with vital information. I found out you can update it through your iTunes on the laptop using the connection lead. Everything was going fine until the last few seconds of the update, basically stating an error occurred. It then disconnected my phone and set it in Restore Mode. Meaning I had to connect it to my laptop and wipe the entire phone. Anyone else had this issue?

Yes and no.
If you have a recent backup with iTunes on your computer or an iCloud backup, you can restore the iPhone from the most recent backup.

  • My update failed and now my phone is frozen with the apple symbol

    I was updating my iPhone and it failed and now my phone is frozen with the Apple Icon.  It wont turn off or anything

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Tries updating iPhone 4S with iOS 6, update failed and now phone stuck on itunes logo

    So i tried updating my iPhone last night to ios 6. Soon after the update began, iTunes said an error occurred and the installation stopped. now my phone is stuck on the itunes logo with a usb plug under it. I have tried everything i know of. turning the phone on and off/trying the reset thing with the power/home button does nothing. plugging into the wall does nothing. when i plug the phone into my computer, the sound of a device being connected happens, but iTunes does not recognize a device. no message pops up about a device in recovery mode or anything. I uninstalled then reinstalled everything apple-related, did not fix the problem. I'm not overly tech-savvy, but if anyone has any suggestions, lemme know please. ive spent well over 5 hours trying to fix this thing to no avail

    OK i figured it out. you have to put it in DFU mode before itunes will recognize the phone.

  • N73 UPDATE FAILED AND NOW THE PHONE IS DEAD

    I started the software update but when it was almost at the end the connection broke down and the phone it was turned off. Now it won't turn back on. What is to be done? Please help me!!!

    take your phone to the nearest nokia centre, as long as it is within warranty then they should be able to fix it or replace it, because as i beleive it is nokias fualt for creating insecure software that is unstable and should not even be made public if it kills phones.

  • Ios 8.0.2 update failed and forced iPad into recovery mode.

    I attempted to download and install the 8.0.2 update to my iPad without using iTunes.  At some point during the install, it failed and sent my iPad into recovery mode asking to be plugged into iTunes.  I have pugged into iTunes and attempted numerous times to restore the device to factory settings.  iTunes will spend a couple hours downloading the update and then fail to install it.  One time I got an error code that said "The iPad could not be restored. An unknown error occured (3014)".
    My iPad's data is now lost and I can't get it out of it's locked up condition.  It's become a very expensive paper weight.  Yes, I 'm outside of warranty.  But my device's hardware was working perfectly before I tried to install their new software.  Does Apple do anything to help?

    Hi baleslie,
    Thanks for giving the details of the error you are getting.  That would frustate me too.
    Recovery from the error "3014" is discussed in this article
    Error 3194, Error 17, or "This device isn't eligible for the requested build"
    It primarily sounds like an issue contacting the update server. Please check it out.
    Take care,
    Nubz

  • Hi, my iphone 5 encountered an unknown error while updating to iOS 7 via itunes and is now stuck in recovery mode and prompts me to restore the phone when I connect it to itunes but then I would lose all my data. Any suggestions please?

    Hi, my iphone 5 encountered an unknown error while updating to iOS 7 via itunes and is now stuck in recovery mode and prompts me to restore the phone when I connect it to itunes but then I would lose all my data. I DO NOT have any back ups on itunes. Is there anyway to get out of recovery mode without restoring or recover data after a restore?
    Or any other suggestions please? Thanks

    As pdroth said, you should have gotten a backup made when you started the update of iOS. If you cannot find a backup, and the phone is in recovery mode, there are no futher suggestions to make. To get the phone working again you have to restore. You cannot force a backup at this time since it is already in recovery mode. It will not allow anything else but a restore at this point.

  • If I update to ios 7 then will it set my phone to factory settings?

    If I update to ios 7 then will it set my phone to factory settings?

    No. It either updates in place or backs up then restores all your content.
    Make sure you back up the phone first though.

    You can try putting the iPhone into DFU mode and see if that will let you restore and remove the jailbreak:
    http://osxdaily.com/2010/06/24/iphone-dfu-mode-explained-and-how-to-enter-dfu-mo de-on-your-iphone/
    Some jailbreaks cannot be removed and in some cases will permanently disable your iPhone. If that happens to you, then you will have to buy a new iPhone; Apple will provide no support, warranty or out-of-warranty, for a jailbroken iPhone.
    You're on your own from here. We can provide no further help with a jailbroken iPhone in these forums.
    Good luck.

    If you have an older backup you can restore to that.

  • 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.

I checked the discussion page but didn't see this topic.  if you know how to help, PLEASE post something!!!!!! tried getting the phone into recovery mode...... traditional steps didn't work, is there something else i can do?!?!?! someone PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!

    Hello,
    I'm surprised it ever chatged, most Keyboards only supply 500 mA to their USB ports, most chargeable devices want 1.5 Amps.
    I'd get a USB extention cable to run from the back so no need to reach behind.

  • HT201210 IOS 7 Update failed, then could not restore

    Update of I-pad unsuccessful, then a dozen restore attempts unsuccessful from 2 different PCs.  Same error message each time: "Ipad could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (9).
    I now own an I-Brick.  Thanks for the "update" Apple.

    This worked for me
    Go to this site - http://www.ipswdownloader.com/. Enter your device, the model, and under the firmware menu, pick iOS 8.0. Then plug your phone into iTunes, and with the device window open, hold alt/option for Mac and shift for Windows while you click Restore. Next, select the .ipsw file you just downloaded, and wait while your phone wipes itself clean.
    from there you can restore to this newer version and later you can restore the date from the backup

  • Installed the update tonight and now my phone (Lumia 928) won't power up.  I've tried a soft reset, but the screen goes from the Nokia logo to a red Verizon screen to a black screen.  What's wrong and how do I fix it?  Help!

    Installed the update tonight and now my phone (Lumia 928) won't power up.  I've tried a soft reset, but the screen goes from the Nokia logo to a red Verizon screen to a black screen.  Tried it 10 times with the same result.  What's wrong and how do I fix it?  Help!

        Oh no Mr.Ected!
    I can see if we can get your phone back on! I understand how important it is to have a phone. Have you tried this to see if we can get it back on? http://vz.to/1DZhteH . If it is still goes to a red Verizon screen and then to black we might need to do a master reset. While the phone is off try this:http://vz.to/1DZhXkU Be mindful this is the last resort because it will erase everything on the phone. If you have done back up assistant in the past you will be able to get you contacts back. Please let me know if you need any more help.
