So i took it out and there are two grey marks right beside the home button to the left of it to be exact. Now It doesnt work when its not plugged in but when I do plug it in it says connect to iTunes. So I do it says its in recovery mode and it needs to restore i try to restore but when downloading the software it says it needs it gets an error. I took it to Verizon and they said just to restore it? I need help very badily!

Too much FB. That is a hoax suggestion in getting your battery charged faster.

Try to put back your device in the DFU (recovery mode) by pressing the power and home button until you see the apple logo 2x or if you connect it through USB and into your computer wait until you see connect to iTunes. From there follow the instruction of recovering your phone. If this does not work, then there could really be some issues in your hardware. You need to bring the phone to apple service provider for repair.

Error 4000+ is unable to restore. Try this iOS: Restore errors 4005, 4013, and 4014. Error 4009 might not show it all errors beginning with 4000+ has more or less the same solution
