    No one here said anything about an update or your device needing it.

    FYI, you are not addressing Apple here, we are all users like yourself.

     

    If the device is in recovery mode, the only option is to restore it.  All data on the device is gone.  This should not be an issue if the device has been used as designed and regularly synced/backed up.
