I've tried the volume up, volume down and side button solution. It starts up again, but then get's stuck again at the same screen: "Select your country or region"
The iPhone is full charged.
I think I need a more radical reset of my iPhone... Anyone?
iPhone 13
Good advice from Apple Support 🙂
Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support
You might have to connect in Recovery mode, if your computer does not recognise your iPhone when connected:
If you can't update or restore your iPhone or iPod touch - Apple Support
Apple support called me today. Said that resetting it with the computer using iTunes is the best option. Gonna try tonight.
Did you try to set it up, using your computer?
There is something amiss here. How can a new iPhone behave this way?
Where did you purchase this device from?
Online, from trusted phone company. Really weird. I never had issues with Apple before
I’d offer that returning it for a refund is the best option.
A “new” genuine iPhone - which you’ll likely use for years - simply should not malfunction as described.
The fix with iTunes worked. Happy with my new iPhone 13!
New Apple iPhone 13 gets stuck during first start up at "Select your country or region" Who can help?
