IPhone :: Stuck At Apple Logo : Can This Be Fixed Without Restore?
Mar 2, 2010
Hopefully someone can provide a step-by-step way to fix my problem without having to restore.I have a 32GB 3GS with firmware 3.1.2 (SHSH backed up on Cydia), jailbroken and unlocked using Blackra1n/Blacksn0w. I bought this phone back in July/2009 so this phone doesn't have the new bootrom.
The phone has been working fine for months. Just today, I was using the Facebook app and it looked like a call came in and was cut off. The call sent me back to the Springboard and I couldn't detect my cell network (Rogers). I brought up SBsettings and restarted the iPhone. When it restarted, it was stuck on the Apple logo. It sometimes take minutes after a crash for the springboard to come up so I waited and waited. After about 10 minutes I sense something is not right. I reset the iphone (power+home) and tried it again. No change. the iPhone is stuck at the Apple logo.
I hooked it up to my computer at work to see if the PC can recognize the phone being hooked up (and maybe I can SSH into it to fix it), but the iPhone doesn't get recognized.
So is there a way I could fix this problem without having to restore (I'm at work, so I can't do a restore until I get home tonight anyway). Also, if I'm forced to do a restore, what happens to my pictures and videos that's on my phone?
Edit: After having the iPhone stuck at the Apple logo and hooked up to the PC for the last 10 or so minutes, I see a wait icon appear frozen just below the Apple logo (they are almost on top of each other). But the wait icon is frozen and not moving. I'm not sure what this means but the iPhone seems to be stuck still.

I'm not sure if this question has been asked before but I NEED HELP!! My Iphone was recently not able to sync on Itunes. Everytime I would try and sync my music it would disappear from the itues menu but still say 'syncing'. Then I tried to restore it after this failed (by getting an error message) I tried to re-jailbreak it and now it will not leave the Apple logo. I've tried everything I know, hopefully someone else knows something.I Have an Iphone 3g with 3.1.2 firmware on it I believe.

I'm sure my iPhone 4 is in a reboot cycle. I put it into recovery mode and try to restore but I get the 3194 error. The phone then goes right back to the apple logo, occasionally going back, then reappearing again.Â
My iPhone has no sim card and this arose because I updated my ios to 7.1.1 but couldn't get it past the activation screen (because it has no sim card and for some reason apple won't allow it).

Since I ran out of battery today, my iPhone 3G hangs on the pineapple logo. I have connect it to my iMac intel to charge it, but no luck.I tried a reset using Home+Power button for a few seconds: same.Sometimes the screen displays a battery icon not charged.
I can go into recovery mode and it is detected by iTunes 9.1 Should I restore it? will I have to jailbreak/unlock the iphone again then?

I tried to restore my 3Gs. It was jailbroken on 3.1.3. The restore failed. I tried using tiny umbrella and RecBoot and it still said i could only restore and upgrade, so i decided after trying that a bunch of times to just do the manual reset from within the settings on the phone. It was on the apple logo with the spinnging thing for like an hour, and now its just stuck on the apple logo. I put it into DFU and tried exiting DFU (like i did earlier) using recboot but now it just wont leave the apple logo.

I did some cydia updates, against my better judgement, it worked ok for a day or so then choked while txting. Its an unlocked 3g on ios3.0. I think it was mobile substrate, I ssh'd an older version, a deb file but no luck. Is a restore my only option? I have my old 3.0 ipsw.

Today my JB'd 3G on 3.1.2 went into a funky state and I attempted to reboot. Since then I've been stuck on the Apple logo at start up and nothing.
So, i put the phone in DFU mode and Itunes 9 is giving me the option to "Update & Restore", HOWEVER, I dont want to do this because I want to stay on 3.1.2 for obvious reasons. I also have been reading stuff about SHSH but I have no clue what this is so one can assume I never did anything prior regarding SHSH.
When itunes has the pop up on the screen saying "update and restore" can I hold "shift and click "update&restore" to choose a 312 ipsw, or is that option only available if restoring without being in DFU mode.

I've been reading posts of various people with the similar issue but I've started to see a trend. I've jailbroken about 5 phones and recently everyone except mine got stuck on the exact same apple logo of boot.
No new software was installed. The phone was working perfectly fine before it rebooted by itself. Is apple doing anything to cause this. I know this might sound stupid but a pattern gets me to think it might be true.
In my case, my phone was working perfectly and I went into the mail app to check my mail and the phone got blank and came up with the apple logo. To top it off, I don't have the ssh for my phone as It was replaced and apple stopped signing 3.1.2's. Can anyone help please.Is there anything besides restore I can try? I tried putting the phone in DFU and starting it up but it didn't help.

My iPhone 4 got robbed and now I'm using an iPhone 3GS borrowed from a friend that has both home and power buttons broken, and an instable battery.
I was using it when suddenly it powered off, as usual, and when I plugged it to charge, the phone got stuck in Apple Logo.

I have an iPhone 5 which stucks at white background - black apple logo.
I put it in DFU mode, connected to my iMac with latest iTunes version, and tried to download last fw and restore, but the following happens:iTunes is extracting the softwarePreparing iPhone for the updateWaiting for iphoneThe iPhone restarts but stucks again in apple logo.iTunes throw 4005 error.Â
If I try to re-enter DFU mode while iTunes is waiting for the iPhone, error 4013 or 4014 is thrown.
I tried with normal DFU (home + start buttons sequence), and with fast DFU (home button while plug), but nothing.
Also tried ipsw files other than the itunes downloads (7.0.2, 7.1.2), but ths same thing happens, after preparing the iphone, it restarts and stucks on apple logo.Â

My iPhone 3GS was stuck at the Apple logo today, leaving me no choice but to restore. I tried restoring back to 3.1.2, but iTunes gave me an error saying that the iPhone is not eligible for that requested build. Is it possible for me to upgrade to 3.1.3 then rejailbreak? Sn0wbreeze says it'll jailbreak 3GS at 3.1.3 with the old bootrom and non-MC. I got my 3GS around when it came out. Does upgrading bring me to a new bootrom?
