My i clicked the erase all content and setting button in my itouch now its not working what to do?

i want to sell my itouch so i have to delete all the files but the thing is it is jailbroken and i did was i clicked the reset erase all content and setting now it has logo of apple with skull and it seems that it is still loading but its been like that for 6hrs what to do? i cant even connect to itunes.

All I can recommend in thsi Apple forum is to Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes.
Jailbreaking voids the Apple warranty and also means that you will not get any support from Apple, including from this Apple forum. Jailbreaking can't be discussed in this Apple forum.
Unauthorized modification of iOS has been a major source of instability, disruption of services, and other issues

  • When i clicked on erase all content and setting in my iphone3, it first shut down and next the apple logo appears and then nothing happens, how to fix it

    when i clicked on erase all content and setting in my iphone3, it first shut down and next the apple logo appears and then nothing happens, its been 12hrs since like that. i tried force restart by clicking the home and sleep/wake button, and still same issue.

    I believe with the 3G and the older iOS, erase all content and settings acts differently than the newer iOS. You can use this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 to place the phone in recovery mode and restore it.

  • I clicked on erase all content and setting.how do i get my phone working again

    i clicked on erase all contents and setting, hoping it will just remove contacts and personal info since i was giving away the phone. now i just have an apple logo on a lit background. how do i get the phone working again.?

    You were hoping to give the iPhone away right, which means you aren't worried about preserving data?
    If that is the case, plug the iPhone into a computer with iTunes, if doesn't automatically ask if you want to restore the iPhone then we need to put the iPhone into forced recovery mode.
    You can do that by keeping the iPhone plugged in and pressing and holding the sleep/wake button (the top button) and the home button (round one with the square in it) together until you see an apple logo. Once you see the apple logo let go off the sleep/wake button but keep holding the home button.
    Once iTunes says it's detected an iPhone in recovery mode you can let go off the home button and then just restore the iPhone as new.
    The added bonus of restoring the iPhone as new means you get rid of any software faults the iPhone may have.

  • I make reset the iPhone 3 ,I press the erase all content and settings button , but I wait 12 hours now . The screen not come up and I can't do nothing

    I make reset the iPhone 3 , impress the erase all content and setting . I wait 12 hours already I don't got the screen come up only I saw is apple icon only . How I have to be get back my home screen

    Did you have modified software installed before you tried to reset the phone? If yes, jailbreaking the device has made it useless.

  • HT201274 If i use the "Erase all Content and Data" button can I put an app back on the phone that is no longer in the app store but is store on the itunes in my computer?

    I have an app, no longer in the app store, that i want to keep an iphone i'm getting rid of. I backed up the iphone on itunes and deleted all data, but the app, manually. I want to erase all data, and then put the app back on the phone. Please advise. Thanks

    Then as I said you can do an Erase All Content and Settings which will wipe the phone. Completely. In order to add a game from your iTunes you will have to activate the iPhone with your Apple ID and then sync the game. You don't have to sync anything else. But you will need to sell the phone with your Apple ID on it.

    I have been attempting to wipe/erase the iphone 4S I recently purchased...for the past 20 hours....I went to Reset in Settings and clicked on "Erase All Content and Settings"....At that point the phone the screen went dark except for a white circular symbol revolving - indicating something should be happening....
    The instructions indicated that, depending on what needed to be erased, the process could take several hours. Even though the device had a Tom Tom application with all the maps of Europe etc (about 2GB) and there were several other apps on the device, it does not seem to me normal that the device would be still clearing into the next day - today!
    Can you please help!?

    Something has gone wrong. Turn your phone off, then force it into recovery mode & restore it:
    Press the Sleep/Wake button & Home button at the same time, keep pressing until your phone turns off, then release.
    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.
    Make sure you have no anti-virus software running or any firewalls...turn all of that stuff off.

    I have an iPhone 4s, but wifi the option is greyed out. The wifi stopped working on it months ago. Now I wanted to erase all content and setting from my old 4s and it will not connect to the internet, because the cellular data is no longer connected, since I bought a new iPhone 5c. I can't erase my phone by pluggin it into my Macbook Pro, since I can't disable the "Find my iPhone" App without internet. How do I erase all the data and setting on my 4s without connecting to the internet? It is running ios 7

    I just did it. To enter DFU mode, I had to use "method 3" on this post
    http://thebigboss.org/guides-iphone-ipod-ipad/dfu-mode
    Too bad my 4S is 2 years old. Wifi is dead. I had to upgrade to 5S, but 5S is soooooo much faster than 4S so it's kind of good outcome. Without the 4S breaking down, a stingy person like me would have never upgraded the phone.

  • I have selected the Erase all contents and settings option in my ipod touch 4. till then i was not able to turn it on and even it was not detectable on itunes. what should i do now?

    i have selected the Erase all contents and settings option in my ipod touch 4. till then i was not able to turn it on and even it was not detectable on itunes. what should i do now?

    I am confused. You said till you Erases all contents and setting yu could not turn it and iTunes did not see it.  How could you Erase all Contents and Setting if you could not turn it on?

  • Recently I erased an iPhone 3 so that it could be passed on and used by someone else, using the erase all content and settings feature. This has killed my iPhone and it is now stuck on the Apple logo. I have tried a restore in iTunes but recovery fails.

    Recently I erased an iPhone 3 so that it could be passed on and used by someone else, using the erase all content and settings feature. This has killed my iPhone and it is now stuck on the Apple logo. I have tried a restore in iTunes but recovery fails. This is not a jailbroken iPhone. Anyone have any suggestions on how to proceed?

    If you haven't already tried, see if you can force it into recovery mode to restore it:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808.  If that doesn't work, the last thing you can try is to put it in DFU mode to restore it: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2648467?threadID=2648467&tstart=0.

  • HT201274 I do the Erase All Content and Settings, How can i restart my  i phone 3s?

    I do the Erase All Content and Settings, How can i restart my  i phone 3gs?

    Reset the iPhone by holding the sleep/wake button at the top right of the device and the home button at the bottom center of the face at the same time.
    Hold them both until you see the screen go black. In some cases, you may need to keep holding them even after the red power off slider appears. If it does, just keep holding it.
    Wait until the white Apple logo appears.
    When this happens, you can let go - the iPhone is rebooting.
    An iPhone reset will not normally remove or delete any data or settings. However, the term reset is also sometimes used to mean deleting all content from the iPhone and/or restoring from a backup.

    hi, I was about to reset my iphone3g when I accidentally selected erase all contents and setting. It was stucked with the iphone logo, so i tried to fix it by restoring all my datas in iTunes. I was able to successfully fix it but when I inserted my sim card it says that simcard not recognized. I tried all the solutions in the net but nothing seemed to work. What should I do? I'm located here in the Philippines. I hope you could help. Thanks! 

    I know. I was with my brother when we did this. He didnt clearly understood the question that poped-up. Regarding the simcard, after successfully restoring it on itunes my simcard won't work. I'm not able to send and receive calls and messages.
