phone is stuck on apple logo

tried to put it into recovery mode and nothing

itunes doesn't see the phone at all

any help?

btw i was using anysim to unlock the phone... it gave me a error message saying something that it needed to be restarted. so i restarted the phone and it staying on the apple screen since then

i noticed that when i leave it running with the apple logo... the screen will blink as if it restarted itself. any ideas?

I had mine go into a cycle or constant rebooting. I couldn't turn it off or do anything. What I did was plug it into my comp, and then hold the home and sleep button until I heard the device disconnect from my comp then release the sleep but continue holding the home. You should then hear the device connect to the comp and itunes will pop up prompting you to restore.

I had the exact same thing happen to me yesterday because I screwed up with AnySIM (remember to always up in Airplane mode!!). I ended up just doing what DerekMartin said and attach the iPhone to computer, hold Home + Power until something happens basically...

HoNdAeVo,

Holding both buttons at the same won't put your phone into recovery mode.

In this guide, there is a section at the top that explains how to put the phone into DFU recovery mode. Read that section over at least twice and then try it.

Don't worry about the rest of the guide as it doesn't apply to your situation right now (yet)

Hope this helps,

L.

hold the power button and menu button together for a few seconds

it will turn off and reboot but keep holding it. then you will see it tell you to connect to itunes
