iPhone 8 / iPhone X: how to Force Restart, enter recovery, and DFU mode

[@prettyflacko6771]

Whoever at Apple thought this approach was a good idea needs to be fired

[@kingcobii]

this too difficult bruh the android way is so much better

Do u know how to bypass disabled iPhone 8 ?

[@rectangulation9212]

Periodt

[@cameranut]

@@hoemendo3011 this is how you do that - select restore from your computer when you connect with recovery mode. You will need to have the appleID information to bypass activation lock.

[@cytawy3077]

Eric L do u know if the iPhone has to be unlocked to recover this

[@ericl5391]

Kiruthika Sritharan, as long as the iPhone can be power on, you can do restore or recovery etc. it is better to have your iPhone already backup before you proceed the restore or recovery.

[@cytawy3077]

Eric L thank you so much

[@ericl5391]

Kiruthika Sritharan, no matter the iPhone locked or unlocked, while iPhone is power on normally, you can have your iPhone restore, recover etc, the setup menu will guide you of what next and what to do.

[@cytawy3077]

Also, another question. But if u have to attach it to a computer, does it have to be a MacBook?

[@TempestPhaedra]

this was the video that finally got me into DFU mode on an iPhone 11. I think what was more clear in this video and what did the trick for me was not immediately hitting volume down after the screen goes black like a lot of instructions imply, but reaching that full 10 seconds holding down the side button first.

[@toni2918]

Thank you!!!!!!! Was stuck in Beta and couldnt get out of it... this helped a lot!

[@ariannawilliams3623]

Toni i’m stuck in beta help me

[@sheldranaeburnett9502]

which one did you use ?

[@RalphVanSchaik]

Bedankt

[@MikeyDavis]

Why do you point to Volume Down every time you say Volume Up and vice verse? Is it different where you are like the driving on the left side of the street?

[@hypermeiji95]

THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU i failed to restart it for the past 24 hours, i was afraid that i might have to replACE it and it takes a while to but i needed it to let my friends/parents know when i am coming tomorrow. i tried everything i could and felt hopeless, but you saved my freakin phone!!!!! it is aliveee

[@charlesalexandre3895]

My phone just keeps going to the “slide to power off” screen when I hold onto the side button after pressing up and down on the volume buttons

[@erobertson264]

Mine too did you ever get yours to work?

[@Mopac8]

If you didn't manage, just power it off then hold both the volume up and volume down and plug in the cable till you see the connect to iTunes logo.

[@ifyoulikemycommentyourgay9641]

keep on holding it for about 30 secs

[@ryanbrunner5622]

Dude, you literally saved me. I just did a screen replacement on my iPhone 8 and I wouldn’t fire back up and I was confident that it worked and I connected it correctly. The force restart did the trick! Thank you so much!

[@lizbetgarcia8986]

I'm stuck on that i cant restore mine

[@samathereed]

BLESS YOU JEFF!!!! YOU ARE THE BEST! I entered dfu mode by accident, and didn't know how to get out of it. I looked through several sites until coming across this video. I did exactly as you instructed in timing with the video, and wall-la!!!!! Thank you! You are a godsend!

[@Humblebear13]

This is why I watch your videos. Just prepping my Iphone 8 Plus for sale. The XS Max's screen is such a step up.

[@kissbap989]

The thing is, whenever I try to do that, it doesn’t turn black. It comes up as the “slide to power off” ? Please help. I did exactly what you did, but it isn’t working.

[@Chibibowa]

Just worked on my 8 Plus. Seeing the swipe to shut down is fine. Just continue the process. You HAVE TO count exact 10 seconds then releasing the side button while maintaining the volume down button. Otherwise it won't work.

[@pairfair9548]

Same here

[@rico.senpai2661]

keep holding until it goes black

Thanks so much. These are the first instruction s which actually worked.

[@MarkLee1]

This is harder than speedcubing. Thanks, Apple.

[@FranHenslerRockFox]

I must have watch a dozen videos that had 90% of the procedure but you have 100% of the procedure. Your video is the ONLY one that mentions how long to press and hold the side button. And your audio was great, very clear and not racing. Thank you Sir.

[@sas_za6305]

The fact that you need a video at all for some super special mode is part of the problem.

[@zauyiro1]

Thank you for the steps on how to do them individually!

[@theputamadre]

thanksss!!! the written instrictions for the restore mode are useless without a video! thankss! you saved me a lot of time and frustration :)

[@jasmineisabelle4180]

thank you so so much, i’m not good with phones and I was seriously stressing because my parents would be SO mad at me if I did something permanent to effect my phone. I don’t mind if I have to reset it, as long as I don’t need to go to apple and spend more money! I was so so confused, thank you

[@jeon5283]

this fixed every issue i had with my phone thanks so much man i almost thought my phone was a goner and had to get a new one because it was stuck on the apple logo and couldnt force restart for it to get back to normal tried many times many tutorials didnt show how to exactly pop up the recovery screen mode on pc just that id have to wait till the logo pops back up but yea my pc wouldnt update or restore on recovery mode so i did it in dlg and restored everything and it worked after a billion tries but thanks to this video it made every step more clear and easier even apple couldnt really help was thinking id have to unscrew my phone or something to actually reset from inside my phone to stop the apple logo but thank God i didnt

I tried to put it in recovery mode bc my iPhone is locked when it powers off I I keep holding the power switch it shows the apple logo then turns off anyone know why this happens ?

[@ramadirani7486]

what if it says the phone needs to be unlocked to charge (with the usb cable) or it wont connect to the laptop

[@Endershock1678]

I think I get it. Apple is worried about failing schools, so they decided to make everything 10x harder so we have to figure it out and study more. Next, they are gonna remove the charging port so we need to find a way to make our phone solar powered. It's genius!
