  • My iphone 3gs is stuck in recovery mode. i have tried to restore using itunes but it ends with a message saying there was an error and couldnt be restored

    hi  desperately need help. my iphone 3gs is stuck in recovery mode... when i try and do the restore via itunes it goes through the motions but when it gets to the end it tells me there was an error and it couldnt be restored...  originally it was an ex contract phone that i had opened to orange from vodafone.. it was fine until i tried to do the ios 6 update

    There is a way to get it recovered from the so called DFU mode. Try to restart the phone while holding the home and power button at the same time. Then try to connect it to iTunes and do the same again. If you try that again till it works you should be able to use your iPhone as before.

  • My iphone 3gs is stuck at recovery mode while updating software 4.3.3

    my iphone 3gs is stuck at recovery mode while updating software 4.3.3 and even itunes is not responding . and i m using newest software of itunes on mac. please help.

    If you followed all of the steps within that article then it's almost always a hardware issue. Reason being is that if you attempted restoring the iPhone from another computer (as the article informs you to), and you are still stuck in recovery mode, it proves that it is not a problem with the iTunes installation on your computer.

  • My iPhone 3Gs is stuck in Recovery Mode. My phone has never been jailbroken. What can I do to get it out of the Recovery Mode loop?

    My iPhone 3Gs went into Recovery Mode yesterday when I got home. When I plug it into my computer iTunes opens and gives me this message "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes." I click the "Restore iPhone" button and wait while iTunes reinstalls the software on the iPhone. As soon as the install is done, I get the same message again "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes." I'm stuck in a Recovery Mode loop. How do I get out?
    This iPhone has never been jailbroken. After a litte research on line I saw some people got stuck in Recovery Mode after a jailbreak, but this is not the case here. Please help.

  • Iphone 3GS is stuck in recovery mode? Please help!

    Hi, I have an iPhone 3GS and my phone is currently stuck in recovery mode after trying to update iOS 4.1 to iOS 5.01.
    When i connect my phone to itunes, i click on "Restore" and iTunes then tells me it will restore to the latest version (5.01). After this version has downloaded it processes the file but then does nothing and does not attempt to install the file. I have then tried it again (6 or 7) times and exactly the same thing happens each time.
    I have tried to uninstall itunes and reinstall itunes and tried again and the same thing happened. For some reason itunes will not install or even commence the installment of version 5.01.
    Please help???

  • My iPhone 5 is stuck in recovery mode and won't restore. Please help me!

    My iPhone is stuck in recovery mode since I tried a restore Before that it kept powering on and powering off eratically and lingered on the white apple screen. I thought an install would help. Retore attempts always fail, I get the message "The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error occured (9)." Please help me!

    Would it make any difference if the restore was to a back up or to factory settings?
    Yes, if your backup is somehow corrupted, restoring to that backup will put the problem back to the iPhone.
    Restore as new and manually put back your content is the preferred method.
    Also the restore cuts out and fails when the restore is at the stage of 'verifying with apple'. Is there any reason apple wouldn't 'authorise' a restore?
    When restoring, the IOS will be verified with Apple server.
    Are you using PC? If so, disable anti-virus and firewall then try again.

  • IPhone 3GS is stuck in recovery mode after update

    I just synced my iPhone to my computer and installed the newest iPhone update using iTunes. After the sync/update was finished (all but my photos because for some reason iTunes has never backed up my photos from my phone) I was prompted to restart my computer only there was an error when my computer was booting back up. Now my phone has the "connect to iTunes" screen and when I connect it says that it is in recovery mode. In order to recover it says that I will lose all my media files. Is there any way to get my phone working again WITHOUT losing all of my information?
    Thanks

    Try holding the button on top of the phone at the same time pressing the home key on the front. Keep both depressed for about 7 seconds.
    This should reboot the device and retain any info you have. Hope it works for you, good luck.

  • HT201413 my iphone 3gs is stuck in recovery mode and wont restore keeps coming up unknown error 1015

    any help would be great

    1015 error: There are 4 possible causes of this error:
    The activation server truly is unavailable. Rare, usually fixed within minutes.
    Your antivirus or firewall or router's firewall is blocking access to
    gs.apple.com on ports 80 and 443.
    Your iPhone is jailbroken or otherwise hacked.
    The computer you connected to during the restore/update was
    used to hack/jailbreak some other iOS device, and its
    network database was corrupted during the process.
