I Phone 11 STUCK in Boot LOOP. Please help. Any other solutions appart from ITunes/Vol button ?

I'm going to try and keep calm when writing this.


My phone is currently stuck in Boot mode and its been doing this for the past 6 hours now. (Slightly going crazy) I've tried pretty much EVERYTHING online and nothing works. The only options Apple seem to suggest is to factory restore everything. Which should NOT be an option, I only recived this phone in April so Its pretty new. I have photos on my phone that I do not want to loose.


I believe the reason this has happend is my phone has malfunctioned in someway when trying to update ?


I've also been looking online seeing others with the same issue yet Apple seems to be of no help appart from all the info that is already online. There MUST be another solution, I've tried the volume button then side button trick - no luck then tried updating through Itunes and you guessed it. NO LUCK. Why did I chose an Iphone ? Ask me this ?


I am totally locked out of my phone. Can't get into Icloud because I need a code that is sent on my phone and there is no other way of veriftying its me. Ah the joys. I was also considering purchasing a Mac Book in Dec but now I'm not convinced.


I going to have a break and see if I can get in touch with someone tomorrow. I know I'm not the only one to ask this question on these Forums as I've seen a few posts. With the same responses. Please help I'm starting a new job at the start of Dec and need my phone. Thanks.

This is the Apple solution in the following article:

If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won't turn on or is frozen - Apple Support


You can try the Update option and keep the photos but you may be forced to use the Restore option and lose the photos.

You can blame Apple for the situation but if you have not backed up or moved photos to a computer since April then blame for the loss is totally yours. Backups should be weekly. ICloud offers daily backups with 5GB free.

Had you lost the phone the result would be the same.

Buy the mac and use it to backup the phone and host the photos.
