Welcome! In front of me is an iPhone 14 Pro and today I'll show you how you can
0:04
hard reset your device through recovery mode. Now I'll be honest straight away you can do this much simpler by just plugging it in right away
0:17
and if you know the pattern to your device pin or whatever actually not I think it's just pin
0:25
then unlock your screen and just go to iTunes or finder and you can do it right here restore
0:33
iPhone this will reset it but for people that might have just forgotten their pin or whatever
0:40
it is face ID and stuff like that if you're basically locked out of your device but you
0:45
still know your iCloud account then you can reset the device through recovery mode. Now to do so
0:54
want to have it plugged in and you'll press volume up then volume down and you'll hold power
1:00
key for the remainder of the time so I'm going to do that right now up down power
1:13
You'll see the phone disappears from iTunes. It starts to turn on and I'll give it a moment. I'm still holding power key keep in mind
1:26
There we go it shows up with this icon right here and this is our recovery mode. So from here we can
1:33
do update or restore though I'm not sure what am I updating considering I am running right now the
1:40
latest version of iOS which is 6.0.2 if I'm correct but normally if you select restore and
1:48
you haven't done this before number one you will be forced to update to the newest version of iOS
1:55
and most likely you won't you won't have it downloaded so when you select restore instead of
2:02
seeing restore and update instead of seeing this preparing iPhone for a restore and next it should
2:09
give me a extracting or something along those lines. Come on. Waiting for iPhone
2:20
Come on. It looks like you're done through recovery mode is a little bit more annoying
2:35
Normally you just completely miss out on the verification portion or stuff like that
2:41
and it should go straight to extracting the iOS. Now like I mentioned considering you haven't done
2:48
this before you will have a little pop-up right here a download button and it will show you the
2:53
progress of your iOS download so it will be downloading the newest one and even if you are
3:00
running the newest version of iOS on your phone maybe you've done an update through settings then
3:06
it doesn't matter because on your computer the chances are you don't have it so you will need
3:11
to re-download it on your computer then it will begin extracting it and installing it into your
3:16
phone so there we go. Now with that being said this process will take probably like 5 to 10
3:22
minutes so just be patient and once it's finished we should be greeted with the setup screen so I'll
3:29
be back once that is visible. Okay so as you can see the process is now finished and you could almost set up your device however
3:52
you like but for me it looks like I need to verify it because it became locked for some stupid
3:59
reason considering I wasn't even logged into the iCloud after restoring it but yeah in normal
4:05
circumstances you could just go to the setup or leave it at this stage but anyway if you found
4:12
