Iphone stuck in recovery mode, what now

iphone stuck in recovery mode, what do i do now pls?

Updating iTunes has nothing to do with an iDevice going into recovery mode.
If the device is in recovery mode, restore it via iTunes on a computer.

If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
Use another USB cable.
Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
If you checked your connections and are still seeing the error message, check for hardware issues.

Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm 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 stuck in recovery mode trying to update

I was attempting to update to the new ios 8. I did this all in the normal way as i usually do. When it got to the extracting software at the top of the itunes screen it took about 1 hour for this to nearly reach the end. then just before it reached the end it stopped and said it could not be restored as the iphone could not be found. now the iphone 5 is stuck in recovery mode and every time i connect it to itunes it says i need restore which i do and then the same thing keeps happening. it goes to extracting software bar for an hour and then stops just as it is about to finish.
i have a laptop with windows xp and have installed latest itunes, i have attempted rebooting everything with no joy.
please help.
iPhone 5, iOS 7.0.4

Follow exactly what I wrote below to fix iPhone stuck in recovery mode:
Hold both power button & home button for 10 seconds.
Once the device shuts off release the power button and keep holding the home button for 10 more seconds.
The screen will remain black, plug it up to iTunes and see if it detects it.
If that does not work hold both buttons to make device shut down, once screen is off hold the home button while plugging it up to PC.
Do not let go of home button till recovery screen shows up on your device.

If you want to start the Restore Process over then follow these simple steps. Restart computer. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB Cable. Hold both home and power buttons until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. Usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Click Restore button of iTunes.

IPhone stuck in recovery mode after failed update.

Hi, I have a bad situation here... My iPhone 5 got stuck in recovery mode after I tried to update to iOS 7.1.1 from 7.0.4 and it failed (error code 6). If this was my iPod touch I would just restore it because all I have is music, but this iPhone has all my sisters graduation photos, important photos, important school documents, contacts, app data, videos from concerts. Etc. I was wondering if I could get the photos off the phone before restoring it, because they are important. I know I should've backed up my photos and made a backup of the phone, but I've been really busy with a lot of stuff. So I was just wondering if there is any way to get the photos and app data back. The app data doesn't really matter but the photos do. The device was not jailbroken or hacked in any way.
If you could help, tell me ASAP.

When your phone is in recovery mode, it's like it crashed. The only way that you can get it out of recovery mode is by restoring, and this erases all your data as well.
You can believe what you wish by "reading all over the internet". This is Apple's technical support forum. We do know what we're talking about.
since you have very important photos on your phone, why haven't you been importing them to your computer as soon as possible after taking them? This is how the phone is meant to be used. Keeping critical data on only a device which can be easily stolen, dropped and broken is just plain foolish. Also, did you not back up your phone (as you should be doing with any computer) before attempting any operating system update? As you've now just painfully learned, updates do not always go as planned.
I'm sorry for your data loss, but let this be a very important lesson. BTW, when was the last time you backed up your computer? I'm sure you have important data on your computer. Hard drives WILL fail.

HELP! iTunes 8.2.1 update and iPhone stuck in recovery mode!!!!

When I started iTunes today it asked if I wanted to update to 8.2.1. I agreed.
Now, my iPhone is stuck in recovery mode (USB plug + iTunes icon on the iPhone screen).
My phone is useless at this point. I DEPEND on having this phone working, and NEED the data stored on this phone.
How can I simply get my phone working again?

Unfortunately, that does not help me either.
At this point the phone will not come out of recovery mode without being restored. All my data is going to be lost.
Thanks for letting me have access to backup my data, APPLE! -- NOT!
I'll be glad when my cell contract is over.

Doing a search on Google revealed this:
if you ever edited your hosts file ...change it back. basically do the reverse of this to about step 5:
mac
http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=7556
windows
http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=7557
(editing the file back to the original worked for me)
Follow those instructions and see if that helps.

IPhone stuck in recovery mode and I NEED MY MEDIA!

Trying to update to the newest OS, typically failed with an "unknown error (-1)" and now my phone is stuck in recovery mode and wants me to restore it. I have many photos and videos only on my phone that I desperately do not want to lose, no icloud. How can I retrieve them?? I did a sync/backup via itunes right before trying to update but I don't think that saves my photos, does it, since itunes doesn't import photos from my camera roll? Help.

Thanks. I ended up trying to restore it, and it then gave me the same error message! With "cannot be restored' AWESOME.
I don't have access to another computer currently. I tried pretty much everything on that page and other forums I could find except for the things that I don't understand or don't know how to do such as connecting without an internet proxy(what? tech-stupid here, I need it spelled out.) configuring security software, ports and firmware and really this is all gibberish to me. It's mind baffling how I had a perfectly working phone and computer 2 days ago and now because of this stupid update I have no phone at all. Guess I'm just going to have to call apple and try to have them sort it out for me although usually when I call them I don't understand how to do half the things they say anyway... isn't there anyone who can translate more simply to a computer moron?? Hah. I'm in the middle of nowhere WV, apparently there's not even an apple store in this entire state, so that's out. Seems like everytime I have to update anything regarding apple it turns into a major problem.
