7.1.1 update crashed my iPhone 5

I found a Youtube video that explains a simple yet effective way to recover all the data I lost from the 7.1.1 update (without the use of thirdparty software). It was pulled down. Good luck all and Godspeed!

What is the video??? Can you email me?? I lost all my important stuff, family photos, videos.... synthhairgurl@gmail.com

Exact same problem with my iPad

Same - charge cord and itunes icon is all I can get too and mine is an iPad - ever since the update I did today. So wish I hadnt!!!!

My wife's I Phone 5 stopped getting service this weekend, so I followed the guides here at Apple and the same thing happened to me. It told me I needed to update the software and when I did, it crashed with error code 1. I tried two different computers and everything. The phone is 1 month old tomorrow. I called Apple and they are sending me a refurb, but that scares me too. I don't want to get charged $649 for a refurb phone if they somehow blame me for causing the problem after upgrading the phone's software. Then, if I pay full retail for a refurb phone, do I get my original back?

7.1.1 crashed my phone. It's now brick. So tired of taking my iPad Air and iPhone into the apple store after every update post ios6. I will never update my phone nor will I ever buy another apple device. It looks like apple doesn't care about its customers anymore. So long apple, hello droid

OMG this just happend and im scarred... My dad wont listen... i refuse to click the restore button.....WHAT HAPPEND??????

I had the exact same problem, this seemed to work for me:
