So I jailbroke my iphone 5 8.1.1 and its been working fine. Then a couple days ago I reset my iphone (I went to settings - general - reset - reset all content) after that I waited for 3 hours and I got stuck with apple logo and the loading bar. I waited for a couple hours again and nothing happened. I tried to use recovery mode with itunes and tried to restore and update it and it didnt work, Im still stuck with the apple logo. Has anyone had this problem? If anyone knows, pls help?

Try holding down the Power+Home Button for 10 sec then leave the power button. IT should hopefully work.

You're not supposed to "Reset All Settings" on a Jailbroken iPhone. It'll cause issues as you can see.

 

You can try Semi-Restore or you'll have to do a full restore via iTunes now.

I did that already and all the DFU stuff with iTunes but still stuck

What do you mean "nothing happened"?

If your iPhone is stuck in Recovery Mode, RecoveryTool fix should restore your iPhone to the factory settings, but a backup should have been created automatically when the OS was updated so you will have the option to restore from backup once the repair is made.

 

 

 

 

If iTunes is open, exit iTunes

 

 

Disconnect iPhone from computer USB

 

 

Click Start menu on desktop

 

 

Go to Control Panel

 

 

Go to Programs

 

 

Go to Programs and Features

 

 

Select Apple Mobile Device Support and click repair

 

 

Connect iPhone to computer USB (device should install automatically)

 

 

Open iTunes

 

 

When prompted, click restore iPhone

 

 

OS should install now and restore factory settings

 

 

 

 

 

iPhone will automatically restart when OS is successfully installed, and you will have the option to setup as new or restore from backup.  If you wish to keep your files and settings, click restore from backup and wait until your iPhone is fully synced.  If there are any discrepancies in your contacts or whatever, you will have the option to choose the correct contact to sync now or sync later.  Once your iPhone is fully synced, follow the prompts on the iPhone and that's it!  Now the next step will be figuring out how to use your iPhone with the fancy new OS!
