My iphone is frozen while updating iphone firmware, help!

I tried to update the software, its like 95% thru but hasnt moved in the past 11 hours. both my iphone and itunes are at a standstill, itunes saying it is updating the firmware.... any advice?

Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time..The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds...Release the Buttons...Turn the Phone on , your phone is factory unlocked right ??

    While updating the firmware Update, i disrubted the download and now my macbook won't start up! Any suggestions on how to fix it? i only see a black screen and when i press the power button i hear the noise that it would make if it was going to start up. But i only see black.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - 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.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Iphone 3g frozen while updating to os 4

    my iphone froze while updating to os4. my phone is licensed in india with airtel and it is an official phone. the software got downloaded on itunes and the update was also amost done untill in the last process of restoring i received an error 043... unfortunately i dont remember the exact error but after that its not starting at all. it is not even getting restored an error (9) shows on the screen and if i try to restore it on another computer (1611) error showsup. i have become helpless as apple india has no support service they have asked me get in touch with the subscriber who will send it to their technicians.. till now i have updated to all the new versions but havent faced a problem till date but this is quiet different and no one seems to hv a answer to it.

    Welcome to the discussions,
    Apple is not listening, this is a user to user forum. Some people solved the problem by restoring "as new iPhone" without using the backup made prior to the upgrade when running 3.x firmware.
    Since I "handed down" my 3G, I did the same and experienced no big difference in the performance after that.

  • I have an iphone 3gs and when i first updated to the ios 5 it didnt work, when i did it again, it shut down my phone and told me i had to restore.  However, when i try to restore it gets stuck in "restoring iphone firmware"  Help!!!!

    I have an iphone 3gs and after trying to update to ios 5 my phone needed to be restored and is now stuck in "restoring iphone firmware"  I have tried powering on and off, reinstalling itunes, my phone is useless.  Is this temporary or is it dead?

    Ali i had this problem today and it took me 7 hours to get it back on . i ended up downloading firmware from a third party site , it  was a nightmare . i would recommend just taking ur fone into apple

  • Frozen while updating iOS 5.1

    My phone has frozen while connected to itunes to update to iOS 5.1 what do I do?

    Same problem. When updating to 5.1, my phone went into recovery mode. It won't reset or start; it just says that I need to plug it into iTunes. When I plug it in, iTunes says "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes." Then, when I try to restore, it makes it through the restoration of the software, but when it gets to the part about restoring the firmware, I get the same message as some of you: "The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unkown error occured (1)."
    I've tried restoring it with a different computer, changing it to DFU mode before restoring, restoring to the specific ipsw by pressing shift+clicking on restore, re-downloading the 5.1 firmware, updating iTunes, restarting the computer, etc., all to no avail. Note: I do not have a jailbroken phone and do not intend to jailbreak it.
    Please, if anyone has found any other fixes (other than bringing it to the Genius Bar), please post them.
    I have to say that I'm extremely frustrated with Apple. How can a company get away with releasing a software update that harms the hardware of so many customers' products??

  • Need help - Error while updating the firmware of Muvo Slim using the recovery t

    Hi ,
    While I am trying to update my Muvo slim firmware using the recovery tool it throwd up an error. And from then onwards if I am trying to power it up it won't.
    If I again try to update the firmware, it throws up the error that "Unable to Write to Device: Device Time out".
    I am afraid that my Muvo slim got bricked. Can you please help me in recovering the same.
    PS: My PC OS is Windows XP.
    Thank & Regards
    ksraghava?

    On my XP system, the last time I wanted to reload the firmware, I had to remove all of my Creative software programs,?and then revert my Windows Media Player back to 0 and then use The Recovery Tool. It is a bit of a pain, but does seem to work when you are getting errors with the firmware download.

    Almost forgot. Make sure your player is fully charged or has a fresh battery before starting any firmware download.

  • Error while updating the firmware

    I have X4500 running solaris 10 OS with software version 5.10. The ILOM version is 1.1.1. I tried to update the firmware but I cannot do that because I am getting an error. This is how I setup everything and I get the error mentioned below.
    C H A P T E R 1 - Flash Upgrading Your Server to Software Release 1.2
    I referred to the above link to do so. But, I do not understand what is the tftpserver that I need to mention here. I get an error message saying gethostbyname() failed. I also setup tftp server on my solaris machine using the following link.
    A P P E N D I X C - Updating the Firmware
    Please, help me.

    ILOM <1.1.8 was pretty flaky. 1.0 was described to me by a Sun CSE as the worst piece of software they ever released. I beg to differ, having been forced to use YP and rpc.lockd in the past but I digress ...
    o) Are you sure that you're getting the right firmware image? You want the x4500-specific images here: http://www.sun.com/servers/x64/x4500/downloads.jsp Be careful not to mix up x4100/x4200, x4100m2/x4200m2, x4600, x4500, etc. files as they are different
    o) Do a "show /SYS/MB" before updating your firmware and stash the output. Updates from 1.x versions of ILOM have a way of wiping the system serial and part numbers. If you record that info first you can repair after the fact.
    o) Do a "reset /SP" to reset the service processor before attempting the update. 1.x versions of ILOM, especially <=1.1.1, seem to upgrade more reliably when they're freshly booted
    o) Be sure that /SYS is stopped before you update ILOM
    o) You don't specify what command you're using to try to update, but I suspect that you're trying something like
    load -source tftp://some.host.domain/file.ima
    given the gethostbyname error. Give it the ip address of the tftp server not the FQDN.

  • TS1702 apps frozen while updating

    while updating apps they have stopped updating and are now "waiting" how can i stop them and try again.

    If rebooting doesn't help, (holding down on the sleep and home buttons until the Apple logo appears on the screen) here are a couple of other things to try.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

    @lyjammy
    Not quite sure from your post whether E71 still functional upon previous firmware and just fails to update every time that you try; if that is the case it may be easier to find another PC.

    If you synced your iPhone with that computer before then you should have a backup in iTunes it will just restore the backup after it finishes resetting your iPhone.
