Feb 14, 2016 6:38 AM in response to Clay Jamesby artemis795,How did u leave it with the black screen and Apple logo if you said that your device was in the reset mode? Reset or DFU mode means that there is "connect to iTunes" thing or just a black screen.
And how did you turn on your device while it was on charge if its turning on by itself then? -
Feb 14, 2016 6:43 AM in response to Anarkiiby artemis795,How do you know that the battery is completely drained?

Feb 14, 2016 6:44 AM in response to SeanARby FelipeV,It also said that recovery was difficult. And warned against that being done. Take it to an Apple Store. You might be able to convince them to replace it for you.

Feb 14, 2016 9:24 AM in response to SeanARby Aston458,DFU mode is not working and neither does the battery draining

Feb 14, 2016 9:30 AM in response to Aston458by Lawrence Finch,If DFU mode didn't work you probably did not follow the instructions exactly. There's also som evidence that you have to wait a few hours after settin the date back. Specifically at least as many hours as your time zone is away from UTC (EST:5, PST:8 etc)

Feb 14, 2016 9:46 AM in response to SeanARby Aston458,I followed the instructions exactly. It's not the first time I put an iPhone into DFU mode. that was the first thing I did after I bricked my phone, since I thought it should be fail proof to any software related issue. matter of fact, I was relaying on that on I took the foolish decision to change the date to 1970, cause why not?

Are you saying that, knowing that other people had rendered their phone at least temporarily inoperable by setting the date back, you did it anyway? Seriously?

Feb 14, 2016 12:32 PM in response to Meg St._Clairby Aston458,Yeah, I did it anyway. Not the smartest decision tho

Feb 14, 2016 1:21 PM in response to Anarkiiby Levi_B_R_,how do i completely drain my battery? it doesnt turn on but it shows the low battery symbol with the charger below it, is that my battery fully drained or do i wait longer
-
Feb 14, 2016 1:31 PM in response to Levi_B_R_by Aston458,If it still shows the battery symbol it is obviously not fully drained. But you can't actually get it fully drained. Even if it is not going to display anything it will still have enough power to keep that **** clock running

Feb 14, 2016 1:50 PM in response to SeanARby Trev45,so I tried to DFU and drain the battery and everything but when I drain the battery I plug it up to my computer to reset it but it is never recognized by my iTunes account

That is because it is a fail safe to prevent the full discharge of the battery and loss of the device. It is unsafe to completely drain the battery, although an extended storage of the device without a charge of at least 50% to start with could result in a full discharge. However, that can also permanently damage the battery.
