Iphone 4s- stuck in apple logo, loading bar don't load

So my phone still had 37% battery when it died. Charged it and it wouldn't charge or even open up. Plugged it in my computer and Itunes recognized it. I had to do restore mode, apple logo came out but the loading bar under it doesn't load up, so I'm stuck right there. Itunes says "Waiting for Iphone".

What should I do when the loading bar doesn't load up? Help please. Thanks.

Hi, I had the same problem and got it fixed. Basically do the following steps but I tried 5 times until it worked:

1. Connect your iPhone to your computer via USB cable.

2. Switch off your iPhone

3. Now hold down the Power and Home buttons simultaneously for exactly 10 seconds

4. Let go of the Power button only – continue holding Home until your computer detects a USB device

5. iTunes should now have detected that your iPhone is plugged in. Now Restore your device.


Hope it helps!

i have iphone4s, my battery was around 30%. suddenly it turned off. I charge it the whole night, next day the apple logo was blinking, the loading bar was not shown. When I connect to the PC, iTunes didn't recognize the mobile and the apple logo will blink again even if I forced to turn off. one time during restoring the phone after long trials and search, iTunes shown "iPhone couldn't be restored and give an error 4005.
