There is a deeper way that I am not allowed to post a URL for but you can Google search it if the above Recovery Mode fails. IT is called "DFU mode" and you could simply Google "how to put iPhone into DFU mode" and find tutorials there. It is similar to Recovery Mode but it is a deeper and more diagnostic way to restore an iPhone with a clean firmware and software.
