Ignore sandeep.  Don't use DFU mode.  You need to use recovery mode.

Placing your device into recovery mode
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
Note: If you see the screen pictured below, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
Use iTunes to restore the device.

  • Phone froze, then i tried to restart and is frozen with apple logo.

    What do i do? The phone froze so i did a hard restart. held the wake/sleep button and home button, then i turned it back on and it doesnt go to anything else but with the load up apple screen. Has been like this for hours and its sitting on the charger. Also turned it off for an hour and still hasnt been resolved. Have had the phone for 13 months. wasnt updated with latest software. Isthe phone a goner or is there something i can do??

    Hold HOME and SLEEP about 10 seconds to reboot the phone.
    If this doesn't work reboot your computer, launch iTunes, find a USB port directly on your computer (not a hub). Plug the USB end of the cable in to the computer. Press and hold the HOME button while connecting the iPhone to the other end. CONTINUE HOLDING until something happens on the phone, then release. This will put the phone into Recovery mode and it should reinstall the firmware.

    You must put in the required information. If you do not have it, you must get it from the original owner of the phone. If you have forgotten your iCloud password, you can reset it at:
    https://iforgot.apple.com/password/verify/appleid
    There is no such thing as an activation "bypass". Activation Lock is a security feature. It wouldn't be that secure is you could bypass it, wouldn't it?

    For instance, DigiDNA's DiskAid will let you extract your messages from the phone in human-readable format. Like .pdf.

  • My ipad is stuck inbetween on and off.  The screen is black with the white apple in the middle.  It won't turn off and it won't come on.  anyone know what is wrong?

    My ipad is stuck inbetween on and off.  The screen is black with the white apple in the middle of the screen.  It won't turn off and won't come completely on.  Anyone know what is wrong?

    See if this lets the iPad start up.
    Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • My iphone 3g is stuck on a blank white screen

    about 2 weeks after i got my new iphone 3g, i turned it on, and it was stuck on a blank white screen. ive already tried to restore it on itunes(that didnt work). I cant update it and ive already tried to reset it. I just think its wierd. I never dropped it or anything. It wouldnt have mattered if i did drop it because i have the otterbox indestructable case. PLEASE HELP!!!!!

    OK so I went to the Apple store and he managed to restart my iPhone by putting it into "recovery mode". I just Googled how to do this as I wasn't there when he did it..
    Disconnect the USB cable from your iPhone, but leave the other side connected to your Mac or PC
    Launch iTunes
    Press and hold down the Home and Sleep/Power button on the top of the iPhone to turn off the iPhone
    Press and continue to hold the Home Button while you reconnect the USB cable to your iPhone, this will cause the iPhone to turn on
    Continue to hold the Home button until an alert message in iTunes informing you that an iPhone in recovery mode has been detected, like the screenshot below:
    Your iPhone is now in recovery mode. If you have not launched iTunes, you will see the familiar screen of the USB cable pointing at the iTunes logo signaling to connect the iPhone to iTunes to start recovery.
    Once you’re in recovery mode, you can either restore the iPhone or adjust the firmware as necessary.
    After restoring or upgrading firmware, your iPhone will automatically reboot and exit recovery mode on it’s own.
    It seems you will also need a wifi connection to complete the recovery mode.
    TIP: If you have backed up your iPhone, click the "restore from iTunes back up" (last option) so when you plug it back in, it will restore from your back up instead of restoreing it to the original factory setttings.
    NOTE: The above was really hard for me to get working so good luck! I tried a number of times and didn't get any message in iTunes but got my iPhone into what i assume is the "recovery mode". I'm still trying to get access a wi-fi connection to see if this will work but I will post another update once I can give it a go!
    Good Luck! And let me know if anyone successful!

  • My iphone died today and now it wont boot up not even a apple sign is sowin any help???

    i updated my iphone 3gs yesterday via itunes, now today the battery seemed to drain very fast and my phone died, iv had it on charge and noe it wont turn on not even an apple sign shows.... im at a loser here and really need help.... i have tried to reset the iphone and also tried to put it in recovery mode and nothing is working....... please help!!! cheers ash

    Thats the flat battery screen.
    - Try another cable
    - Try another wall adaptor
    - Check the iPhone charging port to see if there is any damage or debris
    If the iPhone does not charge with known working cables/adaptors I would suggest to take the iPhone into an Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider for evaluation and if need be service.
