Stuck on apple logo, no DFU or recovery mode possible.

Hello,


I'm here to ask you if you have had the same issue. My iphone 4 GSM is stuck rebooting on apple logo with no DFU or recovery mode possible.

I tried POWER + HOME BUTTON thing but nothing happened. No jailbreak, it only happened on phone reboot.


I hope you can help me. I'm afraid it's hardware issue.


Regards

Julien

iPhone 4, iOS 7.1.2, No jailbreak

Have you tried connecting it to iTunes and restoring using your computer?

Take a look this Apple Support article: Use iTunes to restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support.


As a final step, try the recovery mode. Turn your device off, then plug it to your computer with the home button pressed. You will need to have iTunes installed on this computer. Keep the Home button pressed until you see the iTunes logo on the screen of your iPhone. After that on your computer you should see the iTunes window saying your iPhone needs to be restored to factory settings. Click on the restore button.

What method with Home and Power buttons have you tried? There're several possible, take a look.


1) Force your device to start. To do this, press Sleep/Wake and Home buttons and hold them for at least 10 seconds.

2) Try to reset the device:

  • Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button
  • Press and hold on the Home button
  • Keep holding both buttons until the display turns off and back on with Apple logo on it.

3) DFU mode:

  • Connect your device to your computer using a USB cable.
  • Turn off the device.
  • Press and hold the Power button for 3 seconds
  • Press the Home button while holding the Power button and hold both for 10 seconds.
  • Release the Power button, but KEEP HOLDING the Home button.
  • After about 15 seconds, iTunes will tell you it has detected a device in Recovery Mode.
  • Restore your device

Once again, what have you tried?
