Iphone turned off during factory reset

Apologies if this has been raised a million times before, i have tried to search for an answer..
As the title says my phone turned off during a factory reset as the battery was obviously low. probably happened 1-2 minutes into it actually.
Now it wont get past the apple logo screen. I have tried to reset the phone using the home + power key but nothing happens. it turns off then when i turn it back on it goes back to the apple logo screen, then will turn off.
Ive plugged the phone into my laptop and that wont read it either.
I hope i havent ruined the phone by it turning off during factory resetting ? Can anyone suggest anything to fix this problem ?
thanks

See if you force the phone into recovery mode:
Turn off your phone: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the the iPhone to turn off. If you cannot turn off your phone using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When your phone turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons. Then, leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, itunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. After restoring from backup, you must sync to restore your iTunes content.

Vista crashed, did factory reset, downloaded and installed Thunderbird, can I get messages and contacts from windows backup

Did a factory reset of Windows Vista. Had Thunderbird before, downloaded and installed after reset. I have a windows backup on external drive that was made about a week before the crash. Would the old contacts and messages be on this windows backup? If so, how to retrieve?

What you need is your Thunderbird profile folder. Check whether that's in your backup.

Frozen during factory reset?

I've been having problems with my phone crashing 5x+ a day to the point of having to do a soft reset each time, so I finally did a master reset but the phone is completely frozen now. Will anything happen if I take the battery out? Everything is backed up, so I don't care about that but I'm worried about the phone not working at all.

Pull the batter and hard reset with this method...
Press and hold the Power button.
If the device is non-responsive, remove then replace the battery. Refer to Battery Inserting / Removing for additional assistance.
Select Power off.
Press and hold the Volume Up / Down keys and the Power button simultaneuously. When the Samsung logo appears, release only the Power button.
From the Recovery screen, press the Volume down key to select wipe data / factory reset.
Select Home.
Select Volume Up to continue.
Allow the factory reset process to complete (approximately 1 minute).
Ensure reboot system now is selected.
Select Home.

Hello joell, This appears to me as a memory issue. from the description you list.
You might try downloading and running Memtest, that can be found Here , and see if Memtest finds any memory errors.
If errors are found, you might try removing all but one of the memory modules and run Memtest again and see if you receive any errors. If so, remove that module and install another, and test each one individually until you have checked all the modules separately. If you manage to determine if one or more of the modules are faulty, just install the modules you know are good, and see if the system will boot.
You may have to perform a HP Recovery Restore since this possible faulty memory may have corrupted the operating system and other programs.

Hi ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues, with help from the community!
I came across your post about the Notebook, and wanted to assist you! I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion g6-1160ee Notebook with issues with a Recovery from your restore disks. Here are links to recovery may fail and troubleshooting recovery problems. You might need to disable any virus protection software to do this. Please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices, as these could cause some issues. Plug the power adapter directly into a functioning wall outlet. Do not plug it into a power strip, surge protector, or secondary power source as this could cause and issue.Please let me know how this goes. Thanks.

3my 1st gen ipod touch died during factory reset and wont turn on now. ideas how to fix?

i just got this ipod and i tried to restore to factory settings through the ipod itself. it ended up dying in the middle of the reset. now it wont turn on at all. i have it plugged in to the computer and have had it plugged into the wall to try and charge it. still nothing. when i push the sleep button it shows an apple icon then turns back off.

go back to the apple store and tell them you will get a free new one

My computer powered off during factory reset, and now I keep getting this error message.

Error: F3-F100-0005.
And then I have to turn off the computer.
Before that I was getting this error: "Windows could not finish configuring system. To attempt to resume configuration, restart the computer." And I kept restarting it, about 5 times total, then decided to just reset to factory settings.
Whenever I reboot, it keeps automatically going to "Loading Files", then this error message. I have tried the advice found here:
http://laptopforums.toshiba.com/t5/System-Recovery-and-Recovery/System-Failure-and-NOTHING-Fixes-it/... but it's not working.
Please help?

Some laptops do not come with a recovery disc because they have hidden partition for the recovery.
What exactly is the model of your laptop.

Ipod touch crashed during resetting of setting / data

My ipod touch crashed during a resetting of settings / data
Now it will not turn on. The apple icon will come on when I hold the sleep and home button for 10 seconds but the dies again. Itunes will not pick the device up when its plugged in?
Is there a way to get this going again. It is my daughters favorite device and would love to het this running again for her.

Can you connect it to your computer and restore it? If iTunes does not see the iPod try placing the iPod in recovery mode and then restoring. See:

It sounds like you are concerned about your Apple ID security. I would start by resetting your Apple ID password with this article:

IPad constantly glitching/freezing/crashing/parts of screen unresponsive - time for a factory reset OR a trip to the Apple store???

iPad constantly glitching/freezing/crashing/parts of screen unresponsive - time for a factory reset OR a trip to the Apple store???
My son has nothing but problems with his iPad Mini. It is less than a year old and it constantly freezes/crashes/glitches and parts of the screen are unresponsive. This happens while playing games, watching movies, surfing the net etc etc
The iPad has been in a heavy duty Survivor case from day 1 and has been very well taken care of - so I don't think it's a damage issue
I have tried numerous resets (just holding the 2 buttons) and have disabled every feature on the iPad that might be causing memory/RAM issues (?) all to no avail.
I haven't tried resetting to factory settings as I don't want to lose all the data on the iPad (mostly his game achievements and Minecraft maps that he has worked so hard on!!!)
SO - any suggestions:
1) Take it in to the Apple Store - I have never gone to Apple over an issue, is this possibly covered by warranty???
2) Factory Reset - If I do this can I save all his game achievements/data???
Cheers,
Todd

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

Freezes during "starting windows" message even after factory reset.

I've gone through diagnostic tests and they've shown it wasn't a hardware error. After a failed update to windows 10 my computer rolled back to windows 7. After the rollback when attempting to boot win 7 It froze and hung on the starting windows screen. At first i was able to boot in safe mode and navigate the desktop and drivers, but after plenty of failed fixes i had to result to a factory reset with alienrespawn. After the factory reset the issue still persists, and i can no longer boot up in safe mode. When i do, it tries to do first time installation and says that i has to reboot in normal mode to complete first time config. My computer didn't come with a disk so i can't re-install windows 7, and factory reset dosen't seem to fix the issue. All I need is to resolve this issue so i can get back with a clean slate to upgrade to windows 10. Any ideas?

IPad ...first model .....safari and Crome keep crashing.....have done a factory reset....but problem continues"..help

Safari and Chrome keep crashing....have done a factory reset......still happening....Why.....happens a lot with Video.....can someone help...thanks

I would check to mKe sure you have enough free space on your iPad. If you are close to the limit on storage there may not be enough room for the iPad to operate efficiently.
Also reset your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart.
