My iPhone 5 went into recovery mode after I tried to update it to iOS 8. Any suggestions?

I have tried those apps that allow you to exit out of recovery mode. But none of them worked for me. I don't want to restore my iPhone because I haven't backed it up for a while now...

  • IPhone 3G went into recovery mode after installing iTunes 9.0 and 3.1 OS

    Hi there,
    I recently had to waste about 2hrs time, to get a not working 3.1 OS update fixed on my iPhone 3G. This is not the kind of hassle I would expect from Apple!
    I am using a MacBook with OSX 10.5.6 and an iMac with SnowLeopard and iTunes 9.0.
    When upgrading from 3.0.1 to 3.1 on the iMac my iPhone 3G immediately went into some kind of "recovery mode". Three attemps failed to get that fixed. The iPhone would always be recognized as a iPhone in "recovery mode".
    iTunes would then connect to some kind of Apple service, to restore/recover the phone, but then fail again and again with a "2600" or so error. Detailed info on that error would furthermore lead to a Apple website, that was not accessible ("sorry, there is no information available...").
    Finally I had the idea to connect the iPhone to my OSX 10.5.8 MacBook's iTunes 9, which surprisingly managed to get the iPhone out of recovery again. First all my app store apps were gone, but then I found a tab within iTunes, where I could recover all my apps (after checking the option "overwrite apps on iphone").
    This was by far the most stupid gone wrong upgrade process on a before well working phone and an iMac, I have ever encountered.
    Thanks for the wasted time, Apple. Proably you guys should get things straight before releasing banana phone OS updates, that work on one Apple and not the other.
    Cheers
    Christoph

    Awesome, thanks!! I actually read on another forum about doing that on an XP computer because Vista and 7 drivers get screwed up for the iPhone, so I just got done doing it on an XP computer and it WORKED!!!!
    Thanks for the reply!

  • IPhone is stuck in recovery mode after I tried to update it. What can I do?

    I tried to update to iOS 4.3, It seemed to be working fine until it displayed this error notification - http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblrlhuulwwGjV1qbpguwo1500.png My phone is now stuck in recovery mode and I cannot restore it, I can only "restore and update" and its the update which isn't working.
    Someone told me to download 4.2 online and restore it, I have downloaded it but I don't know how I can install it back on my phone
    Please can anyone help? this is urgent!

    This reply isn't to shorty2006, that post was awhile ago. This is for everyone that updates itunes and gets an error that their phone is now in Recovery mode. 
    I've been researching all night and even thought about downloading several different things that were suppose to get my phone out of "Recovery" mode.  Then I thought about taking my phone to the Apple store after work tomorrow.  I then found this blog and read coltonkj's entry and tada!  I took a big breath and hit "restore".  It worked, it put me back to the page where you can select to restore the last back-up.  Shooooo!!!!
    Thank you coltonkj !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • My Iphone 3GS went into recovery mode while I was trying to update to the iOS 6.1.2

    My Iphone 3GS went into recovery mode while I was trying to update to the iOS 6.1.2
    I need help fast. I'm on call and this is my only phone.

    It finally restored. I saw that a couple folks said they kept trying and finally got restored. So I decided to keep trying and retrying while I researched the techno routes folks described--DFU, tinyumbrella, and scary programming processes. I decided I'd rather put my sim chip in one of our old iphones and take mine to a shop than suffer through a bunch of complication. I switched to Apple b/c I got tired of playing programmer. I digress. After a few minutes itunes would drop my phone from dashboard yet continued showing the checking with Apple...status. So I repeatedly force-quit itunes, restarted phone, unplugged and plugged back into computer. Each time I'd do whatever itunes prompted then walk away. After about an hour of this, for no apparent reason, it went directly into recovery. Didn't lose any photos but did have to reinstall most of my apps. It has to be an Apple network issue related to this particular upgrade.

  • Iphone 4 went into recovery mode.....

    Iphone 4 went into recovery mode and once connected to Itunes and restore began it would either fail to restore and show an error message or would not be able to finish restore even after trying for about an hour. Any solutions? I was trying to update to iOS 7.0.4 when it went into recovery mode.

    As mentioned in the support document those errors relate to USB issues and/or security software. Make sure you are not using a USB hub and temporarily disable your security software. If you have a lot of different things connected via USB on your computer, remove everything except the phone, keyboard and mouse. Do not use USB connectors in the keyboard or monitor. Use one right on the comptuer itself.

  • Iphone 4 went into recovery mode when trying to restore, only option available now is to "restore and update" however this will not work, how can you restore from a backup once in recovery mode and only option is "restore and upgrade"? Please help!

    iPhone 4 went into recovery mode when trying to restore it. Now the only option iTunes allows is for "restore & upgrade", it is not offer an option to restore from a backup, says that must first do the upgrade, when attempting to do the upgrade the iPhone won't accept it.
    How can I restore from a back up in recovery mode when the only option is "restore and upgrade"?
    Please help.

    You don't you must restore your phone first and then you will have the option to restore from your backup.

  • I tried to update to ios 7.0.1 and my iphone 5 went into recovery mode and i dont have iCloud

    I tried to update to ios 7.0.1 and my iphone 5 went into recovery mode and said i had to plug it in to itunes so i did and it restored to factory settings and i lost everything and i am pretty sure i dont have anything backed up on iCloud.. Is there anyway i can recover anything? I had over 1,000 pictures and 500 contacts and now i have nothing.

    Then you have no data from which to backup, I'm afraid.
    This would be a good time to review the User Guide and learn how to use your phone as recommended so data loss like this doesn't happen again.
    Best,

  • Iphone went into recovery mode after trying to update to 5.1

    I went to upgrade to 5.1 and my iphone went into recovery mode and will not work unless i restore it, if i do this will i lose everything!?

    dfu mode
    How to enter iPhone DFU mode
    Connect the iPhone to your computer and launch iTunes
    Turn the iPhone off (hold down the power button at the top of the iPhone)
    Hold down the sleep/power button and home button together for exactly 10 seconds, then release the power button
    Continue to hold down the Home button until a message appears in iTunes telling you an iPhone in recover mode has been detected
    When you are in DFU mode your iPhone screen will be completely black
    Even though the screen is black, that doesn’t mean the device can’t be interfaced with either iTunes or a custom firmware client (for jailbreaking, etc).
    Remember that if you see the restore logo, iTunes logo, or any message on the iPhone screen, you are not in DFU mode but standard Recovery Mode. Again, DFU mode is signified by having a completely black screen on the device. If anything else is the case, repeat the steps above until you enter into DFU mode successfully.
    Exit DFU mode on iPhone
    The simplest way to exit out of DFU mode is to hold down the Home and sleep/power buttons on the iPhone while connected to iTunes. Then just hit the power button as and this should reboot the device as usual.
    And if you’re curious, yes this works all the same on an iPod touch.

  • IPhone 5 went into recovery mode trying to upgrade to iOS 8.1

    So last night i tried upgrading my iPhone 5(iOS 8.0.2) to iOS 8.1. Initially the phone hung up maybe due to network being slow and i rebooted my iPhone which took around 10 mins just to come back on and then took about 2 hours searching for my network but in vain. Then i retried iOS upgradation only so that my network can come back. Upgaradation failed but network came back.
    Today i went to a much better fast network and started my upgrade. An alert came of text "Verifying Upgrade" and after about 10-20 minutes my phone just went into recovery mode showing the Connect to iTunes sign. Now it keeps on saying restore which will delete all my data plus i need to download the entire 1.87 gb of it instead of just an up gradation of 64-65 mb. Now what am i supposed to do.
    I have been using Apple products for the past 5 years almost as i am a iOS developer myself. Apple is really starting to loose it. I never had OS problems before and even the iOS 8.0.2 was too slow for my phone. Now this phone is not under warranty anymore so what i need to know from Apple ASAP is what do i need to do to make my iPhone up and running and i think they should cover this as this is their OS problem.

    If your phone is in recovery mode, then connect to iTunes and restore your phone.

  • My iphone 4 went into recovery mode for some reason and it is unable to be restored. any ideas how to fix this?

    my iphone went into recovery mode for some reason and is unable to be restored. it wont turn on and when plugged into a charger it shows a usb and itunes symbol. so i plugged it into my mac and connected to itunes then itunes said it has detected a phone in recovery mode and needs to be restored. so it goes through the restoration process for a couple minutes or so then stops and says itunes is unable to restore because an unknown error occurred (2001) or (2006) and other times i try it says its unable to restore because itunes cant detect the device... any ideas how to fix this?

    Errors 2000-2009 (from Apple support): If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software.
    2001: Use up to date software. Make sure your device is in DFU Mode: http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1034
    2006: Use a different USB cable. Possibly the one that came with your iPhone.

  • IPhone 5S trapped in recovery mode after mistake made in update process.

    My iPhone 5S is trapped in recovery mode after I option-clicked "update" and selected the iOS 7.1 beta build 11D5099e ipsw, when I needed to option click "restore" before doing so. I'm really getting desperate because I have no backups of my iPhone anywhere (not icloud or computer), and cannot boot out of reecovery mode. I can put the device into DFU mode, but it makes no difference. Attempting to update the iphone to ios 7.1 from recovery mode produces error #17. Attempting to update the iphone to 7.1 from DFU mode produces error #11. Both errors are not mentioned in apple's updating and restoring support page. Before I try just clicking "restore", is there anything else that I can do? Restoring the phone is NOT an option, as I have a ton of data on it.
    Please don't just say "no", because that's not very helpful. If there's truly nothing I can do, and I mean NOTHING, because I am fairly tech savy and can perform pracically any solution you give me, then I will accept that and just restore the phone.
    But if there is ANYTHING I can do, tell me...
    Please...
    TL; DR: My iPhone 5S is trapped in recovery mode and I refuse to restore it unless it is my only option. Is there anything else I can do to fix it?

    Actually, I just fixed it with tinyumbrella. I thought I had already tried it when I posted this, but I guess not.

  • HT201401 my iphone 4s went into recovery mode while i was trying to back it up, it wont restore, did i lose my data?

    my iphone went ino recovery mode when i was trying to back it up. Its recognized but when i try to restore it i get an error message, did i lose my data?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Try DFU mode and then try to restore.
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

As soon as the app is running go to the "Recovery Mode Loop Fixer" tab & hit the "Set Auto-Boot True (Fixes 1015 errors / Recovery Loops). It will restart your iPhone in just a moment & get you back to your homescreen.
    I hope this will help those whos undergoing this horrifying iPhone problem.
