I have been jailbreaking/unlocking/activating iphones since day one, but i have never come across this problem...Please can anyone advise. The iphone will not go into restore mode and therefore can not been seen by any application at all, I can't do anything with it as it's just stuck in apple logo mode, no spinning wheel just the apple. I have both Mac and Windows, so any help would be extremely appreciated...

try iliberty+ on windows. Other tools will allow you to manually enter and exit recovery mode! It helped me alot when I first jailbroke 1.1.4

Apple logo? Have you tried holding down the power and home button, and only letting go when you see it go into recovery? Also, you might have to connect it to the computer...sometimes when I hold down both, it keeps restarting to the Apple logo...only when I connect it to the USB will it go into recovery.

thanks guys, but i've done all of that. it will not absolutely not go into restore mode in any way. I've also tried liberty but it just states that there is nothing connected. Also tried Idependancy, iphuc, winscp, ziphone, the list is endless. Strange thing is that it just dropped into this mode when a call interrupted music playing... I'm now dissesembling it, which suprisingly isn't so tricky but still getting the same response so far. I think it just needs the hard disk tricking into confused mode so it at least does something...thanks again, shall keep you informed.

Me alsooooo help guys i cant rstore i'm on DFU mode and cant restore

[mick411]

i was able to pop it out of recovery mode on ziphone on another computer....I'll have to see what's going on with my laptop...it instantly reboots it into recovery mode if i plug it in...which is irritating since that's where all my iphone stuff is located.

If you are in DFU mode, why can't you restore? Does itunes recognize the phone?

I went through hell the first time that happened to me and the second time, this is now the third time, here's a quick fix thats not working so well.

go on a different computer download iTunes 7.4.0 install Ziphone latest one and run a prepare for upgrade which will put the phone in DFU mode, bang there you go now your main pc can see your phone and restore it, problem is it wont restore so far atleast we can connect to the itunes library and see the itunes connectionon the screen thats step one so far when i figure out step to il post backk

just did a search for the error here's the link to the solution http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1458

if that doesn't work then well GG $500 paper weight.

Bad Home Button... i have had the same problem... no way to fix it... it basically means you have a bad mainboard.

Home button has nothing to do with it... Mines fixed and running 100% re jailbroken and sim fixed up and running, if ur stuck on the apple logo get onto dfu mode restore if that doesnt work use an older version of itunes on a diff computer worked for me 3 times...

okok detailed guide time

Iphone is stuck on Apple Logo, Never fully boots, when on the dock randomly vibrates and is not detectable by itunes or ziphone

If its detected by itunes restore, finished

If it's not download itunes version 7.4.0 and the newest ziphone on a different computer, itunes will detect it always has always will older version work. use ziphone to prepare phone for update theres an option for that, once thats done the phone willl be in DFU mode,

bingo go to ur main computer and restore, if theres a restore error u will want to reboot ur computer and try again, if it doesnt work google the error.

if u still cant restore once in DFU mode go back to the other computer and restore it with that itunes grab a USB or lan network transfer all of ur songs over and update ur iphone, that way you have a working iphone will u fix ur pc, go back to your pc

start>all programs > accessories > system tools > system restore, restore to an earlier date before the problem, unninstal itunes clean the reg and re-install itunes connect iphone set up ur itunes again bang ur working, if this still doesnt work restore ur new pc with the older itunes version 7.4.0 if this still doesnt work enjoy using the other computer or ur new paper weight untill someone figures it out.

Wow! You find a nine month old thread to come up with a solution that involves restoring an older version instead of just moving the timer? I'm impressed!
