iphone data recovery cannot be completed

My iphone X (i think) has a white screen with the following message 'Data recovery cannot be completed, please restore your iphone from backups.


My phone will not even turn off. It has frozen. Even when I try to restore from back up nothing happens. I have taken SIM out to see if I can turn off but still nothing.

Greetings, Shazmcb.


Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. We can understand why you’d want to restore your backup.


It sounds like you may be stuck on the Restore screen. Work through these steps: If you see the Restore screen on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch 


Then, check the following resource to see if you are restoring the backup as intended: Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup 


Should the issue persist, consider reaching back out. Be sure to provide as many details as possible. 


Sincerely.
