I'm just having a bunch of issues today...

I wiped and restored my 6S+ from iOS 10 B2 back to 9.3.3 B5 and now my phone refuses to boot up? It consistently gets to the Apple logo and restarts, this happens over and over and over again.

I've tried the following so far:

  • DFU + restore to iOS 9.3.3 B5 again
  • DFU + restore to iOS 10 B2
  • DFU + restore back down to iOS 9.3.2
Nothing has worked and I think I've permanently bricked my phone........ Any suggestions guys?

**UPDATE**

I ended up restarting my laptop and I was finally able to successfully restore my phone... However, when I pull down my notifications the phone crashes and reboots itself into a infinite reboot cycle. The only fix is to manually restart it by holding the power button and home button. This happened AFTER I downgraded from iOS 10 B2 to 9.3.3 B5 - anyone had this issue and know of a fix?
