If your iPhone becomes unresponsive and you are unable to shut it down using the standard method, you can force a restart. By forcing your iPhone to shut down and restart, a force restart is comparable to unplugging a desktop computer. ..

If your iPhone won’t start up or is stuck on the Apple logo, you can try one of these three methods to get it back up and running:

  1. Force Restart your iPhone: This will force your iPhone to restart without any warnings or prompts. To do this, hold down the power button until it turns off, then quickly press and hold the home button until the screen goes black. After a few seconds, you’ll see a message asking if you want to restart; choose “Yes.”
  2. Use DFU mode: If your iPhone won’t start up at all, you can try using DFU mode. To do this, connect your iPhone to your computer using a USB cable and launch iTunes. Click on the “Device” tab and select “DFU” from the drop-down menu next to “Device Type.” Next, click on the “Start” button and wait for iTunes to finish loading. Once it’s done, click on the “Restore” button and select “iPhone (4th Generation)” from the list of devices. Finally, click on the “OK” button.
  3. Use Recovery Mode: If none of these methods work, you can try using Recovery Mode instead. To do this, connect your iPhone to your computer using a USB cable and launch iTunes. Click on the “Device” tab and select “Recovery Mode.” Next, click on the “Erase All Content And Settings” button and confirm by clicking on the red “Erase” button next to it. Finally, click on the “Restore” button and select “iPhone (4th Generation)” from the list of devices. ..
