sounds like you have a dud. is there an Apple Store near by? If not I'd ship it to Apple and have them fix it.
didn't want to do full restore!
the below worked for me, though i didn't want to restore to factory settings(particularly since i didn't want to lose all my "apps")...
i ended up unplugging at this stage (with the icon of itunes and a plug-in on my iphone) and then holding the power button until it turned off. i then turned on the iphone as usual and the apple logo appeared for a longer-than-usual time (maybe 2 minutes)... then it went entirely blank for another minute or 2... then finally everything came back!!

GREAT SUCCESS.
This worked great. Had to hold the home button down for quite some time (had my doubts about the whole thing) but eventually it popped up! Thanks so much for the advice!

Hi guys,
I have the same problem and i have figured out how to enter the DFU mode..
now am afraid to restore my iPhone, cuz I have 2G iPhone which is jailbroken and unlocked !
so if I restore it, I'll lose my jailbreak and unlock ?
if yes, can i unlock it again later ?
thanks in advance !

Hi guys
I just got back from four weeks in africa, working on an orphanage.😎
Took lotsa photos to do a presentation when i got back to usa. On arriving at atlanta airport, took it out of airplane mode and with 4 weeks of stuff streaming in plus no battery power left, it crashed. Cant get rid of the white apple of death.. only option is to restore it through itunes...but i refuse to lose all my pics...na-ah not in 2010 with so many mac
genii running around.
Called apple they said there is software but they cant give out names. Tried blackra!n, didnt work. Downloaded breezy and someother stuff but it all just gets too complicated for an ignoramus such as myself.😕
I dont have sssh and can barely get my head around it............Woe is me!!!
Help plz😱

Might need MacBookPro to Fix Frozen Apple
B.James is indeed King! I searched everywhere and tried everything, until I found this...and it worked!
One note to PC users - I originally tried this on my PC (Dell LatitudeZ), and although the "Connect to Itunes" logo appeared, I couldn't get iTunes to recognize my iPhone.
I happen to have a backup MacBookPro handy, and tried it there, and it recognized the iPhone.
So, if anyone out there is getting half way but not finishing...try a MacBookPro! They're great for fixing iPhones! 😉

I think I am F***ed....
Here is the story. My mid chassis bezel needed to be replaced, so I got online ordered the part off of ebay. Took my phone apart (3G) and left it that way so when I got the part in it was a quick process. So I waited for a week until the part arrived. I installed the part without a hitch and fired my phone right back up. It wasn't until I received a phone call that I realized that my speaker wasn't working. So I took my phone back apart emailed the guy and got another part shipped my way. I left my phone taken apart because I had to ship the item back to the guy so he could ship me a replacement. So I wait another week until today when the part comes in. I get my phone out of storage and begin putting it back together. In the process I noticed my power button sits really low in the housing so I tried to push up on the button from the inside to see what I could maybe do, so while doing this I was also pushing down on the home button(5 times at least) while the entire screen was off the phone. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary so I continued, and while I was getting the glass attached to the mid-frame my phone beeped as though I had a missed call or new email. But my phone had no sim card in it...I didnt know what to think. A few minutes later I heard a very high pitched beeping followed by a vibrate. A few more minutes later it did it again. This beep was unlike any beep I have ever heard coming from the iPhone. (Getting off track, I want to point out that the iPhone was not jailbroken.) I installed everything correctly and tried to power on my phone but it will load up to the apple...the loading circle will appear for a minute or so, then screen flashes white then it starts over again, it will do this until I either push the home and power button to shut it down. I have tried the " Turn the phone off, hold home button while connecting to itunes and then restore. And here is why I think I am F***ED!!! My iTunes will recognize that a phone is in restore mode, I follow the proper steps in order to complete the restore to factory settings. My phone act normal until the very end after iTunes says that the phone will re-appear after it restarts and the prompt has a 10 sec timer...the loading bar will show up in the phone and fill approx. 1/4 the way then go away, But iTunes keeps going as though there is no error. iTunes will complete the "restore" and ask is I want to restore from back up or new phone. I select new phone and then it will ask for the name and all that jazz. (This whole time iTunes is doing this my phone is still on the apple screen.) Then iTunes will continue to sync and will say iPhone sync is Complete...Ok to disconnect...But my effing phone is still on the white apple screen and will comtinue to go white then the circle loader then fail again, and again, and again....I dont know what to do, any help will be greatly appreciated

iphone froze and won't reset or reboot
My iphone froze and have tried to reset it too about 30 times.
I then read this thread and put it into recovery mode- I was unable to restore from backup so I just hit restore and it told me i needed to download the update. So that's what I did but when the update is finished it doesn't restore. I have tried this about 5 times now and each time it keeps having to download the update but still doesn't restore.
Anyone else have this problem???? 😡
