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.prachi@MV wrote:

If your phone is in recovery mode, then connect to iTunes and restore your phone. -
I have an iphone 4 nearly 2 yrs old. It has worked perfectly for that time. On Friday last (whilst away on holiday) I took the phone out of my pocket & it was lifeless. I tried switching it on, no joy, I tried the power/home button reset no joy. I plugged it into a mains charger & it came on but had a banner across the screen saying "verification required". I removed the charger & decided I would try again when I got home so I could connect to my PC & iTunes.
At home I went through the whole above process again but when I plugged it into the mains again it just had the Apple logo going on/off repeatedly. I plugged the phone into my PC & the apple logo appeared followed by the "connect to iTunes". In iTunes I get the banner "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes". So I click on "OK" the "Restore" then a banner asking if I'm sure I want to restopre the iPhone appears, press "Restore & Update". iTunes starts to remove the software, veryfies it with Apple & then another flag "The iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (21) which appears to be a security issue.
I thought the above problem was something to do with O2 because I picked up my new iPhone 4S last Tuesday but was unable to set it up until I got back from my holiday, O2 say it isn't anything they've done.
My question is has it happened to anyone & can anybody offer a solution, is it a hardware or software issue?Please see the two articles below:

yesterday i tried updating to Ios 8. i new there were going to be some problems but i decided to do it. i started the update and less than a half hour into it my phone completely crashed.it went into recovery mode so i connected it to iTunes. i hit restore and update . it gave me and estimated time that kept going up. finally when it got to 800 hours it stopped and said an error occurred. i tried it again and the same error occurred. i am very disappointed in this because i greatly need my phone for school and other important things. i wasn't gonna wait that time anyway. i would like to know if there is anyway i don't have to update, get out of this screen without waiting forever, speed up the time, or get my computer to not crash when it gets to so many hours. (i have windows) plz help me out asap!!!
I have experienced a similar error with the iPhone 4S. The new version of iTunes will not let me restore the phone, it must be updated and nothing appears to be happening. Suffice it to say I am not amused. Apple needs to work this out - I had trouble updating to 8.0.2 as well.

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.

I updated my iphone 5 to ios 6.something (something about the speakers) to get rid of a notification and it went into recovery mode!!! My photos are not backed up or on icloud. i havent restored yet because i cannot lose my photos/videos, etc. but tinyumbrella wont work to exit recovery mode. HELP! please:(
i tried tinyumbrella (and another similar software) to exit recovery but it only remains on the apple logo stuck there. please is there anything else i can do? i've contacted apple and they have told me the only choice i have is to restore and lose all my data.
my iphone isn't jailbroken and i've updated before without this problem so i'm not sure what has happened. is there anyyy hope please ???First I would try to hold down the power and the home button for about 15sec, but at least as long as the iPhone restarts, if it is still stuck or still in recovery mode then I can suggest you the tool "Wondershare Dr. Fone for iOS", it is both a Windows and Mac tool and I just used it today to get my iPad out of the Recovery mode.
Tell me if any of these options worked for you. -
After updating my Iphone 4s to os 7.1.1 from 7.1 over the air, my phone went into recovery mode. Yet when I try to restore it with Itunes on my windows 7 laptop it says the network connection has been reset. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network is active, or try again later. My phone has the itunes logo and charger symbol on it, as well as an arrow pointing at the Itunes logo. After holding the sleep button down or even doing the hard reset the same screen comes up on my phone regardless of whether it is plugged in or not to my computer. I have turned my computer off and on again. It is plugged in and charging as it's battery life is very short. I also reset my modem and the same error message pops up. The only option on my computer when my phone is plugged in is to restore it. My firewall also allows Itunes through it. I have literally tried everything I know being someone who knows very little about technology. I also do not want to hear about how the update worked for other people. My phone has been in recovery mode for 5 hours at least now so it will just make me more frustrated if a bunch of people post about how the update worked for them.
Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything... and you must continue with the Recovery...

I was updating from 6 to 6.1.2 and my phone went into recovery mode. I usually get a 3014 error but sometimes it gets past the USB screen and goes about halfway through the apple screen and gets a -1 error. I don't have firewalls, no antivirus, the only thing I have is a mandatory college internet connection program that I don't think I can get rid of. What should I do
Also, I already tried to "Hold both home and power button, let go of the home button at the apple screen" but it didn't work.That is usually a result of an iPhone that at one time has been hacked, jailbroken, or rolled back. Try it on a different computer.

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.

Perhaps you've been transferring them from your iOS device to your computer regularly, as recommended for any electronic image capture device?
If not, then learn from this hard life lesson, and backup the data that is important to you... regularly.
