Hi guys, I have a issue. My iPhone 3G would not connect to wifi, so I did a erase all content and settings. I did this about 11 AM. Now it is 9PM, and my iPhone is still at the same apple logo for 10 hours. So, I tried to do a DFU (Device Firmware Update) and my ITunes would not recognize my iPhone. PLEASE HELP= URGENT!!! Thanks!!!

3rd attempt at trying to not have the spambot delete my answer :/ here: instead of a link, I’ll give you what info is in the link that you need so I dont keep losing my answer to SpamBot. Try this: Solution 2: Use iTunes Or you could do it with the following steps:

  1. Start iTunes
  2. Connect iPhone / iPod Touch to Mac / PC via USB cable.
  3. Simultaneously hold for 10 seconds both HOME (Volume Down button for iPhone 7/7Plus) and Sleep/Wake buttons.
  4. After 10 seconds release both buttons.
  5. Press shortly the Sleep/Wake button. Wait until your iPhone/iPad/iPod starts up and at this time you have successfully got your device out of DFU mode. CREDIT TO TENORSHARE!
