I've noticed that when I engage a person in US Constitutional issues that I have far fewer people calling me names as I did before Elon Musk announced buying Twitter. He hasn't even bought Twitter and Twitter is less toxic already. I believe his politics are in between the left or right (Centrist). They are my politics, but I like the result.
@@TannyOHaley So you’re saying Musk buying Twitter made you engaging less people in constitutional issues? But wouldn’t that be a pity? I’m either confused or drunk: I don’t quite get what you’re saying…
@@cunever That's not what I said. I said that since Elon Musk has made an offer on Twitter that when I engage people in US Constitutional issues fewer people are calling me names, not that I am engaging with fewer people. I've had Parkinson's for over 26 years and when it came about that I couldn't type on a computer anymore I had to retire. I became bored and started studying the US Constitution. Sometimes when I see something stated wrongly about the US Constitution or a lack of understanding of the US Constitution I gently try to show them what the US Constitution actually says. Unfortunately because I can't type or can barely type on my iPhone I use dictation which is very tiring, takes a long time, and can be problematic.
You guys are ABSOLUTELY fantastic! I often refer customers to your channel for techniques to use with their devices. I also learn a thing or two myself. Bravo David & David!
I’m doing all the steps but once I release the side button the Apple logo pops up and the phone turns back on. Idk why it’s not work when I’ve done it before
I figured it out on iphone8 or newer do the shutdown steps then release all buttons for a very quick time then hold power button and volume down button hold power button for 5 seconds then keep holding the volume down button untill itunes says iphone is in recovery mode
Thank you. I had an issue where I upgraded my iphone xr using itunes, but I still had the "Unable to check for update error". So this was my last resort and it fixed the problem
Is not working for my Iphone 12, someone jailbroke my device and I am working on trying to fix it. Seems the hard-button values have been changed or programmed themselves. It refuses to go into DFU but also doesn't seem to be discoverable on the PC. Any suggestions if you see this?
Might've been said already but if you're on a Mac, do not try this with the USB C to Lightning cable, it will not work. Use the USB A (big rectangle) to Lightning cable instead. I'm not sure why this is but I wasted an hour and a lot of frustration to find this out.
This is a great video. Thanks for providing all the details on how to perform the process. I would like to know if this method can remove everything that a factory restore process cannot do. I believe that my iPhone still has something installed on it, as the factory restore process did not seem to have erased it. Any suggestions would be helpful. Best regards,"
Things have evolved since this video. The latest version of iOS, iPadOS, and macOS allows you to DFU Update, rather than do a DFU Restore. An updated video on this topic would be welcomed.
My phone is stuck in DFU mode... but I did not choose to put it there. However, software I've downloaded that is meant to take the phone out of recovery mode say, "Your phone is in DFU mode." I can't get it out of DFU mode using the steps you've shown above. Been trying for the past three hours. My question is: is the data recoverable from my phone before or after I exit DFU mode?
What do you do if you want to do a DFU restore because your phone isn’t charging? I can’t use the cable to connect to the computer. Is there another way?
So the ultimate question is, will this work with a PC or does it need to be a Mac? I went through the comments and didn’t find the answer. So you’ll have to forgive me if it was answered and I just missed it. Thanks.
Does dfu only work on Mac? Could it work on a hp pavilion? I have a iPhone se 2 that won't go passed the apple logo. When I hard reset it it tell me to plug into iTunes. When I plug it in and its done doing its thing ,it says "the iphone `iphone` could not be restored. An unknown error occurred" I tried everything but the dfu but I don't have a Mac.
What is the difference between DFU mode and the restor Mac symbol when you hold down the side button and you see the computer logo and not the black screen?
Can someone please help me? When I click OK at 2:58, it instantly snaps me back to the "music" page in iTunes without allowing me to hit "Restore iPhone". Does anyone have any solutions for this?
Recommendations, can you give an instruction video on how to simply put things on iCloud & how to secure it? I have iPhone 6+Thanks. I’m sure it’s pretty easy for the majority of this channel.
Tried my sim in another phone and it works - didnt have anyone willing to put their sim in my phone though so - im at the DFU bit in your video now cuz nothing else worked - scarey but gonna try it
I am getting error 9. Apple and some stores say its unfixable HOWEVER, I have seen UA-cam videos and read comments of people thinking their device was a goner from error 9 and being able to restore it. Do you all know anything about it? Some fixes were as simple as trying a different cable, some say they tried dozens and eventually one worked. Some worked from trying a different usb port, others it was the antivirus software. thoughts? have you had any success restoring this issue?
i have successfully completed step 1-3 but my pc can never detect my iphone. i have hold the volume down button for over a minute and after i released volume down button my device is still undetectable on pc. what have i done wrong?
my device not getting in dfu tried many time , i also tried other same model they are getting in df u mode ealsy , i think some issue in his device perticular, suggest something
Love your informative videos! A question though: You used the DFU with a Mac. What about the rest of us who use a PC?? And not,I am not buying a Mac just for the DFU......;)
Hope you can answer this very important Question, we know it's best to just charge your iPhone battery to 80% as that causes less wear on your battery, ok if you buy a brand new iPhone, should you use it before charging it and let the battery go down to zero and shut off, then charge it to 100% and then after that Obay the 80% and 20% battery rule, please do a video about this, especially for people who buy a brand new iPhone.
So I got my iPhone 7 Monday now it keeps powering off it will stay on for 5 mins then shut off I just got hip to the iphone do I have to get another please tell me I don't
Is it a software or hardware? I have an iphone 12 and when I plug it in, it doesn’t work, but when I plug it in on fully powered off screen, it shows me the apple logo. What is it?
I am using a brand new iPhone 13 mini. I installed the 15.5 update directly after turning it on. From day one the performance feels horrendous. Animation stutters and frame drops occur pretty often. In addition the gesture to get back to the home screen is laggy from time to time. Cant belief I am using an iPhone. Apple checked the hardware and told me it is fine and I should wait for a software update. I already tried all kind of resets followed by a software restore via iTunes. Issues are still there. Is a restore over DFU any different than a clean restore via iTunes? If yes, this would be my last shot. Otherwise I will probably get rid of the phone as I am really sensitive to stuttering and this is driving me nuts…
Okay guys.. Im not angry but! I do have a question I'm only 14 and I don't really understand this stuff?? My iPhone was a little hot and then it shut off and got burning hot it took about 30 mins to naturally cool and it hasn't turned on since my family tells me the board inside might just be fried and done for but Idk bc this has happened to my friend before but their Iphone turned right back on they have the same model as me (iPhone 13)
The toughest part is that people don’t do the last step long enough. The rule is 10 seconds, but “hold until it shows up in iTunes” is more like it. In my experience, it can take as long as 30 seconds.
My phone hasn't been dropped or have any water damage, I tried to reset it the first way, and it worked for a few days then just stopped again and will not work or enter dfu restore what should any suggestions
what if i can’t back up my phone because my screen doesn’t work ? i’ve tried to reset it but it’s only sent me to a locked home screen, it’s un responsive from half the screen down and i cannot enter my password due to it not being responsive any help ?
Imagine having all of the instructions for this process on one screen so it's not incredibly tedious to perform while watching the video. Incredible concept I know.
If your trying this on an iPhone 15 or newer (might be before that but tested on 15) these instructions no longer work. Do the following worked first time for me: - Quick Press and Release Volume Up - Quick Press and Release Volume Down - Hold Down the Side button - This will restart the phone and keep holding nothing else is needed ignore the apple logo keep pressing! it will go into DFU mode after this
Thanks for the video. I can’t get my iPhone (the touch screen is not working) to recognize the cord. I’ve tried Apple cords and non Apple cords and Everytime the iPhone connects to a wire it says “ unlock iPhone to use accessories” but I can’t unlock it because the screen doesn’t work. Therefore, it will not allow me to get in dfu mode bc the comp (a Mac) is not recognizing that anything is plugged in. Help!
I’m currently having the same issue with an iphone XR, but the difference is the screen won’t light up and the touch still works. Just won’t recognize any cord when connected to computer. Weird.
What do you think about Elon Musk buying Twitter?
I had no idea that there was something to think about either, Twitter or Musk.
But if there is, just ask me if I care…
Change is a good thing

Totally clicked to find out what DFU stood for because in my mind I could only come up with “Don’t F*uck Up” mode.
For me it was Don’t F***ing Update. Lol
For me it was apple ‘Did F*** You’
😂
😂😂😂😂
Loved 😂 your comments!
Thanks!
You guys saved us a trip to apple with my wife’s phone. She was getting the bootloop/4013 error and this took care of it. Thank you very much!

Hi, my boyfriend is getting the apple logo just flashing. It won’t pop up on my computer on iTunes :( Should this work?
Amazing my iPhone is back to life. THANK YOU SO MUCH! Super helpful video.
Happy birthday David … keep growing
Do you have to use a Apple laptop or can it be any type of laptop?
I’m doing all the steps but once I release the side button the Apple logo pops up and the phone turns back on. Idk why it’s not work when I’ve done it before
Same

Managed to fix it??

Is it compulsory to use mac book or can we use hp lap top??
thanks! this fixed my issues and was supper easy!
Power up power down for 5 seconds then letting go of volume then holding power button for 10 seconds worked for me. With it plugged into the mac.

Pls is it possible to enter dfu mode without a Mac
Maybe a Windows
What can you do to troubleshoot phone not turning on?
Watch our video about how to fix it! ua-cam.com/video/B6ksmAl6YgY/v-deo.html
Is dfu the same as factory reset on the settings screen
how much time I need to wait for the recovery?
How long it should take? my iPhone is under preparing iPhone for restore for more than 1 hour now
Might've been said already but if you're on a Mac, do not try this with the USB C to Lightning cable, it will not work. Use the USB A (big rectangle) to Lightning cable instead. I'm not sure why this is but I wasted an hour and a lot of frustration to find this out.

Does clean installing the ipsw several times on the same phone cause the ssd to wear out to a noticeable extent ?
Great videos, guys. I'm a new iphone user - do you have a video on how to restore an iphone from iCloud?
is there any way to do it on windows?
I've tried so many times to get this to work... but it keeps showing the apple logo and restarting. What am i doing wrong on my iphone pro 14 max?

Hey 👋🏻, I have a doubt, my phone won’t go into DFU mode, what can I do with it ???
Anyways to put in dfu when stock in recovery mode?
My phone is stuck in DFU mode... but I did not choose to put it there. However, software I've downloaded that is meant to take the phone out of recovery mode say, "Your phone is in DFU mode."
I can't get it out of DFU mode using the steps you've shown above. Been trying for the past three hours.
My question is: is the data recoverable from my phone before or after I exit DFU mode?
That’s a good question.
Unless you click Restore Now, your data is recoverable while in DFU mode.
*YOU GUYS ARE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING 👏!*
Thank you, Beth... ☺️
What do you do if you want to do a DFU restore because your phone isn’t charging? I can’t use the cable to connect to the computer. Is there another way?
Is a mac computers required to do the dfu reset
Does it need to be a Mac or not?
Love it.
So the ultimate question is, will this work with a PC or does it need to be a Mac? I went through the comments and didn’t find the answer. So you’ll have to forgive me if it was answered and I just missed it. Thanks.
We probably could have been clearer - it will absolutely work on a PC using iTunes.
Thanks so much!!

Can i still do a DFU reset if im not connected to a computer?
You guys are awesome!
Thanks so much.
BTW, what does DFU stand for?
device firmware update
they say it at the start
does this work with ipad mini
Yes
dfu mode isn't working for my iphone 11. I'm following the steps exactly as you said and nothing.
Happy Birthday !
What is the difference between DFU mode and the restor Mac symbol when you hold down the side button and you see the computer logo and not the black screen?
Will this erase the e-sim?
I could do this with an iPad but not my 12 mini from your previous dfu video. This version looks slightly different.
Can someone please help me? When I click OK at 2:58, it instantly snaps me back to the "music" page in iTunes without allowing me to hit "Restore iPhone". Does anyone have any solutions for this?

Love your informative videos!
A question though: You used the DFU with a Mac.
What about the rest of us who use a PC?? And not,I am not buying a Mac just for the DFU......;)
open itunes on your pc and make sure your iphone is linked to itunes and do it there
when i hold down the vol btn and side btn it tries to make an emergency call. never goes into DFU mode. this is 3rd gen SE. with ios 17.4

Imagine having all of the instructions for this process on one screen so it's not incredibly tedious to perform while watching the video. Incredible concept I know.
If only there is a way of writing it down on a paper for example, you know, for personal use.
If your trying this on an iPhone 15 or newer (might be before that but tested on 15) these instructions no longer work. Do the following worked first time for me:
- Quick Press and Release Volume Up
- Quick Press and Release Volume Down
- Hold Down the Side button - This will restart the phone and keep holding nothing else is needed ignore the apple logo keep pressing! it will go into DFU mode after this
Thank you! This worked for me now.
