Kirill, thank you so much for uploading this. I’ve been asking questions in these comments for a few days and finally found something that worked. I have an iPhone XR 128gb that was extremely full and sent me the storage full message for months. I couldn’t remember the last time I updated my iOS. Step 4 worked for me, I easy flashed with 14.4.2 in recovery mode. I tried every other step dozens of times to no result. DONT give up! Keep trying because no matter how full you think your phone is there is a chance.

My iPhone 8 64gb is alive and data fully intact, thank you!!! Like previous users stated, don’t give up, keep flashing it with user’s data retention. I ran flash so many times I stopped counting after 20. The time frame was from 3:30pm-3:30am went to bed. Started again at 8:30am and succeeded by 10am!!!! My steps: Recovery mode flash - cycle through all the firmware 14.4.2 and the 2 betas DFU mode flash - repeat the same process for the firmware After every failed attempt, you will notice the percent completion is higher 20%, 24%, 38%, 40%, 60% At the 60% failure, I kept on flashing in DFU mode while cycling through the 3 firmware and at the end 14.4.2 succeeded. Good luck everyone and whatever you do, don’t restore PS: all done with 3utool and turned off my windows firewall PSS: my phone was in the drawer for almost a year until I stumbled upon this video

Thanks for your feedback! As far as I know, if the iPhone is already in recovery mode, you can "update" it to the current version of the firmware. So it is not that necessary to wait for a new firmware to be released. However, you can of course try updating both with the current and the upcoming version of the firmware. Good luck and let me know how it goes.

@@enon5233 not through any method ive found on YT no. I did have the Apple store reset my phone and i did figure out what the problem is. The problem is not that you dont have enough space. The problem is if youre using a Windows PC to reset or restore an iPhone. The Windows PC will most likely have some sort of security or firewall preventing iTunes from sending the full firmware. If you try to restore or reset use a Mac if not already.

After that i trid t update it with itunes and got the error 14. I wanted to rescue my data so i tried it at least 20 times again. Then i found this great video I flashed the phone with 3 utools to Ios 14.4.2. It took me at least 20 trys. with everytime to loading bar got more. One time it was full but still got back to recovery mode. I tried again, changes usb slots and then all of a sudden it worked. People keep on trying! i did it at least 30 times.

Also it was displayed several times that an update would not be possible due to the full storage and that you should just press "restore I Phone" instead... You shouldn't let yourself be dissuaded from pressing update, for me it finally worked after the 15 attempt and my phone came on again and all my data was available.

problem solved: here is the fix so my present case is I had done the easy flash on my iPhone X using the latest iOS 14 version with 3UTools. It completed100% in 2nd attempt and then white screen with Apple logo attempting data recovery popped up and then it popped a second time with the downloading bar ( without attempting data recovery text) and. Phone switched on. With my previous wallpaper and passcode. The photos are empty but storage showing full with most space taken up by "other" category, previously all this space was taken up by photos. Where do I go from here? I made an unencrypted backup using iTunes and I can see the photofiles in some weird format which I can view in Paint and the chronology of the photos is all jumbled up. I think my phone was previously on ios11.4 or ios12 is that why there hasn't been a smooth transition n it's not pickin up the photos in the app because they are on a previous encryption? Should I try to reload an older firmware? here is what I did: I opened the backup in 3utools selecting file location (iTunes/mobilesync) under backup/restore-->view data backups--> select the backup--->pro mode--> camera roll--> (select all folders) export ( in a new folders) and lo and behold all 21000 files were photo files were there to be exported in chronological order and the location data where pic was taken is under file information I am so happy...all this is free...if this works for you please share this info with others

You cannot downgrade the version, so you can update to the current one or newer. Current one did not work for me, so I started trying newer ones, and one of newest worked for me. I think it is not only about the size itself, but about the flashing process. I believe that newer version of firmware can have some previous flashing bugs solved. Maybe that's why a lot of people had success with one of the new betas, despite it was larger size than the previous FWs.

Update 09.04: my iPhone had an Apple logo boot loop yesterday (~ 3 months since the last recovery). I think it was a combination of the over-the-air update to 14.4.2, that was sucking my free space even after it was installed and about ~4 gigs of space available initially. Hard reboot did not work, entered recovery, iTunes update did not work. Easy Flash in 3uTools to 14.4.2 worked like a charm from the first try. All the data is in place. So probably nowadays the most effective method is 3uTools Easy Flash to 14.4.2 (based on my recent experience and some recent comments of viewers).

I tried easy flash with ios14.4.2 about 20 - 30 times. and every times 4 or 5 times i would get further on the progress bar before failing. It would fail at 34 percent then 36 then 40 then 60 etc but eventually it went through an updated. Just an FYI The last time I tried I got an error at 80 percent but then the phone rebooted. after it restarted it prompted me to enter my phone password twice and then the phone said "Attempting data recovery" . After it completed my phone booted up to the home screen and I began deleting apps from my phone because I had less than a 1gig of space available. THIS WORKS JUST KEEP TRYING. I got all my data back and I had no space on my phone.

Kirill, you are the man, a real lifesaver!!! Was trying to back up my Iphone X but Itunes told me that I would have to first update my phone. So I did/tried. Big mistake. Because I barely had more than 200MB available on a 256GB phone, the update did not work and the phone was thrown into the Apple logo boot loop you described. I spent hours looking for a solution, wasting money on some repair software and was about to throw in the towel in the middle of the night. By chance, I saw that you commented on another video that you found a solution. Checked out your steps and after about 7 attempts with EasyFlash it worked! Took me the rest of the night but at least I got my phone back with all the data. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! The one that worked for me in the end was the 14.6 (5046f) version. Hope this helps others.

Solved (iPhone XS, step 2). Wanted to share my story in case it’s helpful for others. Had full storage issues for a long time, and hadn’t yet updated to the new iOS. A couple days back the phone just reset itself and got stuck in a boot loop which it wouldn’t get out of. Very sentimentally important photos hadn’t yet synced to iCloud so was important to retrieve. Spoke to Genius Bar and they were pessimistic - I only had an incredibly small amount of storage left, so iOS update seemed unlikely to work. Using these recommendations I tried attempts at iOS update in recovery mode probably about 4 times and it worked on the final try - though not obviously at first! Try 1 failed and I got an ‘error 6’. Try 2 failed to show any progress on my phone. Try 3 I got a note saying the update was installed but my phone stuck in boot loop. Tried again and the laptop told me I would need to recover, but still gave option of updating. Did that again and same issue as before - stuck in boot loop after saying it was successful. Decided to stop there and put my phone back in regular charger without expectations. To my surprise a couple minutes later the phone turned white with a ‘swipe up to recover’. After completing this, the update worked and my phone was back - all the important photos there!

Hi, thank you sooooo much for the video. Just here to thank you and confirm that the method still works! I got a boot loop on my 11PM due to low storage. 1&2 did not work. Waited for 2 days with multiple times of hard reboot and battery running out. Went for the 4th step with 3UTools easy flash to IOS 16.2 (from 15.2). I TURNED OFF THE FIREWALL BEFORE FLASHING. It worked so smoothly to 100% right at the first time! Waited a while (be patient since the first 15 mins the phone still stuck on the black screen, then to white with "attempt to recover", then straight to the setup). Also just a note: Don't rely on the Storage in the setting!!! You usually have about 40-60% less than what it tells you. Check the storage with 3rd party app (for example: AIDA64). For example, the Setting told me I had 200MB of free space left, but AIDA64 reported on a 16MB of free space! Then, the nightmare came. Anyways, thanks again for your instructions, and wish luck to whoever have to go through this sh*t!

I solved it thanks to you. I would've only lost 2 weeks of data, but I didn't want to. So I took my time and did my research. I found Oksana's Instagram account (@iphonelogoloop). She guided me to you with her post, and you recommended either iTunes or 3uTools. iTunes never seemed to respond even though I pressed the button. So I decided I would go with 3uTools. iTunes flash was the solution for me. One important piece of advice I can give is to keep your iTunes window on-screen and close any iTunes alert tab every time it pops up. I couldn't stop my iPhone from getting out of Recovery Mode when I chose "Close iTunes." I thought it would prevent an interference. No, it does not. That's a useless feature that interferes with the flash process. It's also worth mentioning that I updated my drivers in the toolbox, and enabled auto-activation. There were no errors, and I have no lost files. Also, bootleg cables work just fine. So you don't have to go out of your way to get one or get an extra useless cable when you have a USB-C fast charger. Just don't touch near the USB port.

I tried everything and searched everywhere but got no help until I saw a comment on another video redirecting me here. I watched Kirill's video and downloaded the 3utools. I tried the easy flash with the option to retain data and downloaded the latest firmware which at the time of typing is the 14.4.2. I tried to flash about 4 times but it always got stuck on 36%. Then i changed to a different usb port and tried the easy flash again. It completed the flash successfully and the phone restarted and a message came "attempting data recovery". It finished and the phone restarted again. I unlocked my phone password and everything was as it was before. All my files intact. I immediately deleted unwanted stuff and did an itunes backup. I'm so relieved!

But after that I disconnected my phone from my PC for like 3hours and then start flashing again, andd it has a progress but still stuck on 60% (but the bar is already full but it still coming back to the recovery mode). After several times doing flash finally MY PHONE IS BACKK AND ALL MY DATA IS STILL THERE (it said an error occurred while on 80% tho ).

I recommend trying the steps, as they appear in the video. Because first steps are easier and faster to do, and harder to mess up. It can work (or not work) for all the kinda recent iOS versions, so knowing the exact version of iOS is not that important. The update itself won't overwrite your user files, however it may cause the files to be corrupt and not recoverable if something goes wrong during the process.

Then, after several attempts, it made a big progress. It kept failing with about 60% progression and full iPhone bar. The most interesting thing is, that the last (successful) attempt was recognized by 3uTools as... failed? I saw that iPhone doens't come back to recovery mode immadiately though, and pressed the power button. It started to restore! I was shocked. No data lost. Just keep fighting! I think that with every flash you're getting closer. Perhaps iPhone keeps repeairing some files or sth and it makes a little bit more storage. Keep trying to change versions, after trying with BETAs it ironically made progress with 14.4.2 from 38-39% to 60%. Thanks again Kirill!

Usually steps 4 and 5 are more or less safe for your data if you do everything properly and do not interrupt it in the middle. However not a single method can give you a 100% confidence of keeping your data. You can loose your data even during normal use of your phone, and of course during the flashing procedures, this risks are higher.

First time when I had this problem, step 4 did not work for me after ~5-10 different tries. When I tried step 5, it was from the first try. However, when I had the problem a few months later again, step 4 worked for me from the first try. So there is no guaranteed amount of tries for success in any method, and it is highly individual.

It's an XR, I'm connecting to my laptop with an original apple cable, pressing and releasing the volume up button, then the volume down button, and then holding the side button. But it just goes black and then back to the apple logo seconds later! Can you help? Thanks so much in advance.

Hi, I would recommend watching a few tutorials how to enter the recovery mode on your model. Also make sure that iTunes is running and updated. If for some reason recovery mode is still impossible to enter, try to enter the DFU mode (step 5). It is much trickier to enter than recovery but should work in almost all the cases.

@@gopalola I’m not sure why it even started happing, I left my phone charging on my desk like I usually do, and it wasn’t turned off it was just on sleep that’s how I always have it, and when I came back to my room about 10 or 15 mins later, it was on the apple turning on screen. It’s been stuck since Friday, it’s now Monday. Not sure what to do, and like you had on the video here, the orioles with the failing to update error 14, I’m worried it’s because my phone storage was almost full :(

Sounds very similar to my case. I also had nearly full space, because I was getting the warning messages and the apps started to crash and forever apple logo boot loop. If normal update in iTunes doesn't work, it's not the end. Just try the 3uTools utility update and update in the DFU mode (methods 4 and 5 in this video).

For me and some people it was successful from the first attempt. For some people it was successful after multiple attempts. For some people it was still unsuccessful after multiple attempts. However, as for now, as far as I know, there is nothing further to try, as trying method 5 multiple times, if you want to keep the data.

Hello Kiril, I have my I-phone X stuck on an Apple logo loop since last night, I tried to update it with I-tunes and it comes u with an error (4013), I tried to do step 4 of your video but I get stuck on 19% with Easy Flash and 21% with Itunes Flash - once it gets to restore it doesn't get passed this. I wanted to also try step 5 but for some reason can't get my phone in DFU mode (tried it as explained several times and it doesn't work). Can you please help? I am happy to contribute for more than a coffee if you can please help me restore my phone and data. Thanks a lot, Bella

I would still recommend to do flash in DFU mode. Getting in the DFU is really tricky and may take some time, but usually always possible. So I would recommend to find several videos or manuals for your model, and try for at least 15 minutes each, until you will see black screen and 3uTools will detect DFU mode.

I do only use easy flash in 3utool to 14.4.2 six times then it worked. Maybe you need to try more. First time it went 24% (-2 issue but no error 14) , second times 22%, 21%,19% 60% then 80% it work.

I've already tried three diffrent version (15.0beta8, 15.0beta7, 14.7.1), used the original apple cable and two diffrent anker power line MFi cables, changing USB ports, but still got the same error code. Is there anything i could do to solve this problem? Thanks in advance!

@gopalola3 жыл бұрын
For me it was different from your case: stuck on Apple logo -> stuck on recovery mode -> failed updates -> DFU mode -> successful update -> normal boot. The only thing I can recommend is to check if you entered the DFU mode correctly (completely black screen) and try to flash it to the beta version in the DFU mode (pro flash).
