    You will have to be a bit more clear about what it is that you wish to know.

     

     

    Are you asking if there is a recovery mode available for the iPhone? If so, yes there is, and that mode is known as DFU Mode (Device Firmware Update).

     

    Are you asking what the screen of your device looks like while in recovery mode? If you have successfully entered into DFU mode, your device will have a blank screen (all black), but the computer you are using will provide you with prompts about the activity going on while your device is being restored.

     

    If my reply has not addressed your specific concern, be sure to leave more detail so that I or another forum member may further assist you.

     

    Best of luck
