My iPhone 4 is stuck in recovery phase. Help me.

Hi.
I'm trying to upgrade the iPhone to version iOS5 .. but my phone has been idle for more than two hours in recovery mode. The display on my phone is the apple and the progress bar,locked. Not go ahead. What do you recommend? Wait, Because it will be a problem ofoverloading of the Apple server, or unplug and restart? Hoping, of course, that this time will not block. Please help me.

I think I'll do the same thing. I leave the iPhone at home and go to work. On my return I'll see what happens. I hope someone can help. Thank you for your answers, I do not feel alone, at least
P.S.
let me know if you can solve., and sorry for my English: D

  • My iPhone 4 is stuck in recovery mode, help please!

    Hi everyone. I've tried every posisble solution from finding answers on here but nothing is working for me.
    Now here's my story:
    My iPhone4 is jailbroken and has been for a few months now with no problems. Yesterday I went to make a phone call and after the phone call I wasn't able to exit the screen with the 'Home' button, so I turned off my phone. I then turned it back on, entered my passcode, and then tried going into Instagram and it also wouldn't let me exit using the 'Home' button. So I decided to hook my iPhone up to my computer after finding someone having the same problem, and they said they just had to upgrade to the latest firmware. So I tried this today... hooked up my phone and iTunes popped up. I clicked to 'Restore' and once it downloaded everything it said it could not be restored because of 1013 error. My phone neded up going into recovery mode where the iTunes logo is on my iPhone screen. I tried exiting recovery mode by downloading the latest version of tinyumbrella but it wouldn't recognize my iPhone. My iPhone shows up with the serial number on tinyumbrella instead of "Kati's iPhone" and iTunes also won't recognize it. When I clicked "Exit Recovery" I then exited out of tinyumbrella and the apple icon showed up on my iPhone. I then tried opening iTunes and it went back to the iTunes screen on my phone. I tried clicking "restore" but it said my phone is in recovery mode and I need ot exit recovery mode. What do I do to exit recovery mode and get my phone working again? I'm on a PC, not a Mac. I"m freaking out that I may have totally broken my iPhone and will have to buy a new one Also, I'mpretty sure I'm running in 4.3.2, but I'm not sure.

  • My iphone 5 is stuck in recovery mode

    My iphone 5 is stuck in recovery mode.
    Last week i took my iphone 5 to the genius bar as it kept powering off randomly. The technician recovered my phone and instructed me to do so if the problem happens again. The technician informed me that if the problem conitued to occur, I would have to swap my phone for a new one under the 1 year warranty. Of course, on my first day of traveling on a two week work trip, my phone began powering off randomly. Upon plugging into the USB on my laptop, itunes recommended the recovery. I began the process and now my itunes reads, "waiting for iphone" after downloading updated software & extracting it. The screen on the iphone displays the apple logo and an empty status bar. This has been this way for 8 hours.
    There is no genius bar near my work trip. I have 12 days remaining here with no phone. What can i do?
    -Teddy

    I was able to execute this process, but it still did not complete. Itunes finally went a couple of steps farther in the resotre process. It went from "extracting software" through its different phases and stopped at "verifying iphone restore with apple". It acts as if it completed the verify and then before going to the next step, it just pops up a prompt saying, " This iphone cannot be restored (error 9)".
    I have repeatedly received error code 2009 until i executed this process. Seems like this was an improvement though.
    Thank you and anything else???

  • My iphone 5 is stuck in recovery mode after battery change?

    my iphone 5 is stuck in recovery mode after battery change, I decided to change my faulty iphone 5 battery as i was out of warrenty, I managed to chance the battery with no problems (I Think), when i put the phone back together and tried to power on with the power button, nothing happened.!  i connected to itunes and it powered on, displaying the connect to itunes screen (recovery mode) all was going well, the phone was restoring, the image of the phone restoring and loading up was displayed on the screen, when it finished it restarted but to show the connect to itunes screen again, it is stuck in the recovery loop. i tried the steps with holding the power and home button etc, none worked.! now when i try to restore, it extracts software but then, ' the iphone could not be restored, an unknown error occured (3194)' comes up, any ideas out there???? and Happy Christmas to Everyone ,

    Hello Andyoneill9,
    It sounds like you are trying to restore your phone but keep getting an errror message 3194. I want to recommend the troubleshooting steps from this article named:
    Error 3194 or "This device isn't eligible for the requested build"
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4451
    Resolution
    Important: If you see one of these messages and need help updating or restoring your iOS device, Install the latest version of iTunes and try to update or restore again. After that, follow these steps if you need more help.
    Check your "hosts" file
    After you've updated iTunes to the latest version, you can check the hosts file to be sure your computer can contact the update server. Use the numbered steps below if you’re on a Mac.
    If you’re using a Windows computer, follow steps in this Microsoft support article, noting that resetting the hosts file will affect software services that rely on hosts file redirects. If you're using Windows on a business computer, consult your IT department to be sure applications will still work correctly after resetting the hosts file.
    In the Finder, choose Applications > Utilities.
    Open Terminal.
    Enter this command and then press Return:
    sudo nano /private/etc/hosts
    Enter the password you use to sign in to your computer and press Return. You won't see text appear in the Terminal window when you enter the password. Make sure you use a nonblank administrator password.
    Terminal will display the hosts file. Navigate using the arrow keys and look for an entry containing “gs.apple.com”.
    Add the # symbol and a space ("# ") to the beginning of the gs.apple.com entry.
    Press Control-O to save the file. Then, press Enter when prompted for the filename and Control-X to exit the editor.
    Restart your computer.
    Try to update or restore your iOS device again.
    This is the first troublehsooting step to try, so there are additional things to try if needed you need them.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Regards,
    Sterling

    Same here. As i started upgradation from the iphone through wifi it showed the itunes icon with the usb . As i connected to itunes, it said the phone is in recovery mode and needs to restore.

And the phone remains on that same window with the usb/itunes icon on display. I'm at a fix. What should i do?? Please Help!!!!

  • 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.
