DFU means Device Firmware Update. If a restore using Recovery Mode doesn't work you will want to use DFU Mode as a last resort. When placing your iPhone into DFU Mode it does not load the OS before attempting the restore For your convenience this tutorial is available in video format also. Click the Watch It button to view the tutorial!

Continue holding the home button until you iTunes pops up a message telling you that it has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. ![]() The iPhone screen will remain black like this: ![]() NOTE***: It may take a few attempts to get your iPhone into DFU mode. Generally, I hold down both buttons then release the Home button just before I think the Apple logo would appear. If you are still holding both buttons down and you see the Apple logo you are holding them down for too long! If this tutorial needs to be updated please let us know here |
