Phone frozen on Samsung screen for 7 hours now.
I have had my fascinate since December, upgraded to Froyo 2.2 a month or so ago only had a few little blips here and there. Today I searched for another upgrade, found one and now my phone has been stuck on the Samsung logo screen for hours. I did a system wipe, removed the battery a hundred times and nothing is resolving it...should I just take it in to Verizon...anyone have any suggestions?

Why does the Iphone4 freeze up after downloading the IOS7.6 patch showing an ITUNE icon? The phone will not change screens for 4 hours.
I Turn it off/on and nothing changes.Hello bigboza,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information, take a look at:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3281
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
Have a nice day,

How long does it take to restore firmware.My phone has been in recovery for 3 hours now?
How long does it take to restore firmware on iphone5.The phone is only 3 week old and has been in recovery mode for nearly 3 hours now?
- No. That is too long. What does the status bar in iTunes say the iPod is doing?
- Terminate the sync. Force close iTunes if necessary then reboot the computer. Also reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Try again. If still problem come back with what the status bar says when it stopped. -
I am setting up my new iphone4 and am trying to transfer all of the contacts etc from my old iphone 3GS.After linking it with itunes the screen has shown 'restore in progress' for almost 24 hours with time remaining going backwards. Is this normal? Should I let it continue?
No, that is not normal. I guess you are trying to restore from the latest backup created by your old 3GS?

My iPhone was downloading iOS8 and it has been frozen on the loading screen for 5 hours
My iPhone was downloading iOS8 and it has been frozen on the loading screen for 5 hours, I have plugged it into my iMac but the iMac can't cancel the download without me typing in my password on my phone, which conveniently isn't working
It won't power off or on or anything, it is just stuck on the white background with black apple sign!!Hi esmelicious,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I know it can be frustrating when you run into issues updating to the new iOS. In your specific situation, I would recommend placing your iPhone in what is called recovery rode and restore it from there. Please use the steps and information located in the attached link to restore using recovery mode.
If you can't update or restore your iOS device

I hit erase all content and settings and now phones been on that screen for hours
Depending on the size of the data you want to erase, this might take a little longer than expected.
If the phone is frozen, try to reset it by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Appel logo comeback again.
You can also try to set it back to factory settings by following the steps mentioned in this article:

It is still on the apple loading screen for an hour already. Does anybody. Know what I can do?
Hold down the power button and restart whilst holding down the Command and R keys. This should take you to the Recovery partition. Use Disk Utility to both verify and repair permissions and your hard drive (if needed). See if this will get you started again.

How can I turn off the ability, to turn off the phone, from the lock screen for more security?
There is no such option.
There will be some additional features included with iOS 7.

my iphone 5 randomly shut off and when I plugged it into my laptop, it says it is in recovery mode. however, i keep getting error 9 when it's attempting to restore. my phone has been off for 24 hours now and i can't get it to successfully restore
Hey p0507!
Here is an article that addresses your error message, and can help you troubleshoot this issue:
Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
Configure your security software
Check your security software and settings, which can block ports and prevent connection to Apple servers during update and restore.
Common errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1000, 1611, 9006, 9807, 9844. Sometimes as a result of this issue, a device might stop responding during the restore process.
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!

When loading video or tv shows it is taking as long as 14 hours plus - if I leave the loading screen it doesn't continue to load? So you have to wait without leaving the screen for 14 hours? Unfortunately - I've been reading that this lengthy download problem is quite common - although I thought I saw where someone had loaded videos the day before and then had them to watch later. So, my first rental - I downloaded it overnight - then we go to watch it tonight and it proceeds to start loading again...saying it will be ready in 14 hours and 21 minutes!!! Am I doing something wrong here? If anyone has advice - I would greatly appreciate it. This is the first apple product that I am disappointed with

I bought a iMac g4 on eBay it started fine I did a system update it has been rebooting for 4 hours now
A used iMac with an uncertain lineage like yours really ought to be restored using its original System Install disc. You did receive it with the iMac didn't you?
It will be a challenge to do anything without it. If the seller did not include the discs with the iMac you may be able to order a replacement set from Apple. Contact them by calling the phone number on the Apple Online Store site.
You will need the iMac's serial number and some money. -
