IPhone 5 stuck in portrait mode after upgrade to iOS 8

iPhone 5 stuck in portrait mode after upgrade to iOS 8.
Phone was fine before the upgrade, iOS 8.1 did not fix the issue.
Have done a factory reset at Genius bar and they say it's a hardware issue and have gotten this response below:
"Now, when you perform an update to any iOS device many system checks are run to verify that all components are working as they should. This is part of the firmware update process. When these checks are run sometimes issues are detected, even if all seemed to be running well previously. When this happens one of two things can occur. Either the hardware will be deactivated completely, or it will be locked in a state of use so that the device can still be used. In the case of the gyroscope for screen rotation, the firmware locks in place so that while not perfect, the device can still remain on some functioning level. This is what appears to have happened when you updated. The software itself did not cause any failure, but it detected a currently upcoming issue and prevented it from becoming worse."
All I want is a replacement but they want me to pay £199 since it's out of warranty.
Anyone have the same issue?

If the device is out of warranty you must pay the out of warranty replacement fee to have your iPhone replaced. If the phone was still under warranty the phone would have been replaced at no charge.

Ipad stuck in recovery mode after accidentally unplugging it while updating

ipad stuck in recovery mode after accidentally unplugging it while updating to ios 4.2 . and when trying to restore it back it wont restore, restroing error code is 6 what to do ?

I'm not sure what you can do at this point. If I had been in your shoes, I would have kept the pics in the camera's SD cards until my return home.
I'm really reluctant to suggest this but, at this point, you probably can't lose. Do a "Restore." Be forewarned that it could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
Edit...
I just took a peek at the TinyUmbrella FAQs. Your device has been jailbroke and that's likely the reason why the problem occurred to begin with. Contact the jailbreaker for assistance. Neither Apple nor anyone on the forum can help you as we do not know the characteristics of your device.

IPhone 4 stuck in landscape mode after iOS 6 upgrade

I used to have a fully operational iPhone 4 until yesterday, when I upgraded to iOS 6.
Many apps including Mail, Safari, Contacts, Calendar and several third-party apps have been stuck in landscape mode since then.
I have tried to:
- reset
- restore from back-up
- restore to factory settings,
without success.
At the end of the day, I am not even sure whether this problem relates to iOS 6 or if it is just a coincidence. Anyway, the only workaround I found is to lock autorotate in portrait mode, which is not acceptable in the long run.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Pb solved!
Yesterday, my iPhone ran out of battery and powered off automatically. When I restarted it after a full battery load cycle, the iPhone was able to autorotate again.
So far, so good
Hope it helps someone else.

Why is my iPad stuck in recovery mode after iOS 5 update?

I plugged in my iPad2 to sync and download a document. I noticed that there was an update to iOS 5 so I elected to download the update. As a result my Ipad seems to be stuck in recovery mode as every time I plug it in and attempt to connect to iTunes I get the message. "Itunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with itunes." I do so and after waiting for the update to download it tells me the same thing again. I have tried different USB ports, rebooting my iPad and the computer and disabling antivirus software. Please help me I literally need to use my iPad.

I had a similar issue with my Ipad. I had to take it to Apple, they restored the system but after that my IPad did not sync. It was not until an hour ago I read on another forum someone suggesting disconnecting the Ipad abd turning it off, then connecting it to the PC (usb port) and then turning the Ipad on. Try it it may work for you. I tried apple support 3 times before with no luck! Good luck.

My iPod touch is stuck in recovery mode after trying to do an update on it, what do I need to do to fix the problem?

My iPod touch had an update that needed to be done when I plugged in it to the computer and iTunes. It came up with an error and then went in to recovery mode and that is where is is stuck at. What can I do to get in back to normal?

Without knowing what the error message said all I can suggest is:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Ipad mini stuck in recovery mode after ios 8.1 update

i have a first generation ipad mini which usually works fine. last night the ios update appeared in my settings and i tried to install it.
i didnt have enough space so deleted some apps and then installed.
the ipad switched on at the end but said the update failed as i didnt have enough space i needed a little more. i deleted more apps and attempted to install again
this failed my ipad is now stuck in recovery mode, it hasn't taken itself out as apples help pages suggest after 15 minutes its been in recovery now for 15 hours
i have tried to connect to itunes as the screen is telling me to but it will not recover from there either as apparently i can't connect to apple servers my connection isnt working - i assume because others are having this problem as i a using the same pc to post this message so know my network is fine.
i need help to get out of recovery mode - itunes says my software is up to date so i may have this nightmare software already.

i originally tried to install the update using wifi and this did not work. i think i might just chuck the thing as looking on the boards all my stuff will be lost anyway - i backed up 2 days ago but that is nowhere to be found now in itunes or the cloud kmt

Why is my ipad stuck in recovery mode after IOS update? I can't get it out even after I restore. Please help!

I did an IOS update and now my iPad is stuck in recovery mode and I can't get it out. I have tried to restore through iTunes, but after restore it says it is still in recovery mode. Please help!

Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe!

IPod touch stuck in recovery mode after iOS 6 update error 6

I wanted to sync my iPod touch with my Mac last night, when iTunes tried to sell me on the iOS 6 update. I told it to go ahead with the update, and left it alone to do its thing. When I checked again, it told me the update had failed with error 6, and that I might need to restore my iPod. The only info I've found about error 6 pertains to Windows security software, and that clearly does not apply to my case.
The iPod is now stuck in recovery mode, and none of the my googling has changed that. I have tried the various patterns of power and home keys, and have also tried downloads that were supposed to force the iPod out of recovery mode. How exactly does an update brick a device? Now I don't mind restoring the iPod, but I need to get my data back. Loosing the data is not acceptable. This is not a jailbreak attempt. I just want my data back, and I don't mind going low-level to get it (i.e. terminal, dd, scripts, ...). Pointers in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

I was able to extract my data and copy it to a disk image with the help of http://code.google.com/p/iphone-dataprotection/wiki/README. This process is really only appropriate for developers, I regret to say, but for developers the process is reasonably robust. I still had to read between the lines in one or two places, and make good use of the shell, but I am delighted to have retrieved my data from my iPod.
A lower priority question for me is whether to try to collect my notes and contacts from the assorted .sqlitedb files. It looks like iFunBox may come in handy if I try to push things back onto the iPod once I restore it.
For anyone who cares to know, my iPod Touch decided to listen on port 2000 instead of port 2222, my /dev/rdisk0sXsY devices had different numbers than expected by dump_data_partition.sh, and I had to find my keychain-2.db file in /mnt2/Keychains on the data filesystem. But it worked, and that's awesome.

IPhone 4S stuck in recovery mode after IOS 6.0 update

My iphone 4S is stuck in recovery mode. I connected to iTunes earlier today to update the IOS to 6.0 and that's when it got stuck. From reading phones stuck in recovery mode, it seems like it is happening with this software update. Why didn't they tell us there would be an issue and pull the update.
I have an appt at the Genius desk later today. My question is this; I have phone messages on my phone, I listed to messages that ATT saves on their server and the older ones on my phone are not in their current 20 list. When my phone is restores, will all of the phone messages still be on my phone? How about all of the photos I took this week? Last time I synched was more than a week ago.
The phone messages are very important to me. I can't loose them. My son died this summer and 2 of the messages are from him.

If your phone is in recovery mode, all data on the phone are gone. If your messages were not previously backed up, then they are forever gone.

3GS stuck in recovery mode after iOS 5 update

I just updated my iTunes to the latests update on my Dell. That wasn't the problem though. When i updated my 3gs, it got stuck in recovery mode and gave me an error code -1. No clue what this means and I desperately need help to get this fixed ASAP.

Mine did that as well, so I finally unplugged from computer. Then plugged back in and iTunes said it had discovered an iPhone in recovery mode did I want to restore from backup. I of course chose yes and it restored then updated right to iOS5. Hope it works for you like it did me.

IPad Mini stuck after iOS 8.0.2 update: How do I recover my data?

I purchased an iPad Mini with Retina display just before leaving on vacation 2 weeks ago and used it to take 100's of pictures.
While waiting for my return flight home I decided to apply the iOS 8.0.2 update. WHAT A MISTAKE!!! Now, my iPad is stuck in Recovery Mode and won't boot up. I tried different utilities (Mac FoneLab, RescuePhone, iPad Data Recovery, iFoneBox, ReiBoot), but none of them worked.
What can I do to recover my pictures? I have no backups.
Note: I set a simple passcode on my iPad. So, I think my data is encrypted (but I'm not sure).
Thank you in advance
-- Daniel
