Disability of an iPhone 4g
My iPhone 4g disabled for 23,000 minuets. Won't go in recovery mode, DFU mode, won't connect to iTunes, home button is barely working. How can I restore it in this case of scenario?
iPod touch (4th generation)
See my first reply on page 3 in this discussion for how to place the device in Recovery mode. The restore via iTunes. The link opens to page 3.
Turn on without Home/Power Button
If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone and use Remote Wipeto erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
You can also wipe the iOS device by installing the FindMyiPhone app on another iOS device and using that app to wipe the device.
