  • In this video, we're going to show you how to put your iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, or iPhone XR into DFU mode and do a DFU restore.

    What is DFU mode? DFU stands for "Device Firmware Update." A DFU restore is the deepest type of restore that you can do on an iPhone. It takes all the software off and puts it back on again. Since it affects the iPhone's firmware and not just its software, a DFU restore can even fix some hardware problems.
    If you're a longtime fan of Payette Forward, we recommend the DFU restore in a lot of our videos. When I was at Apple, we did DFU restores all the time, because it's the last thing you do before you decide that the iPhone is actually broken. Somebody would come in with a phone that they think wouldn't work, and we'd always try a DFU restore before giving them a replacement phone.
    How To DFU Restore iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, or iPhone XR:
    1. Plug your iPhone into a computer with iTunes.
    2. Quickly press the volume up button, the volume down button, and then press and hold the side button until the screen turns black.
    3. As soon as the screen turns black, keep holding the side button on the right, and then press and hold the volume down button for 5 seconds.
    4. After five seconds, keep holding the volume down button and let go of the side button until your iPhone appears in iTunes, and iTunes says it has detected an iPhone in recovery mode.
    We'll show you how to put your iPhone XS, XS Max, or XR into DFU mode and walk you through every step of the DFU restore process.

    IMPORTANT UPDATE FOR MAC USERS:
    If you have a Mac running macOS Catalina 10.15, you'll use Finder instead of iTunes. Open Finder on your Mac - your iPhone should appear under "Locations".

    D & D: I ran into your channel approx 6 months ago and am amazed! I came from using Android phones at work & just bought my first personal iPhone Jan 2020- Samsung Rugby died. I was lost and frustrated using the iphone until your videos. I can't tell you how helpful your information has been. I've actually been using more and more of the phones capability-not even missing the Samsung any more which is saying alot. Tim Cook should be sending you two a monthly check. Thank you & please keep up the good work. BTW David Congratulations on the pending marriage.

    You both rock. Thanks for doing what you are doing.
    Main Point: I didn't have to go through the entire DFR process to restore dysfunctional wallet access
    XR wasn't able to access "wallet" either via app icon or power button double-tap. You may find this sequence helpful: 1) pressed volume up button 2) volume down button 3) held power button for 20 seconds 4) phone went black 5) Apple icon appeared 6) carrier service message popped up asking to accept service carrier 7) entered 6-digit pin 8) home screen appeared 9) was able to access the wallet via both power button double-tap and through app icon.
    You may already know why, but I thought it may be useful to some.
    Thanks again.

    Good job guy! However you don’t have to hold the vol down and power after the screen turns off. Just press and release vol up> press and release vol down> then hold just the power button till you see the iTunes logo on the screen. If you have trouble getting the iPhone into Recovery mode, you can also put it into this mode by plugging it into a wall outlet.

    I Bought an iPhone XS Max, which seems perfectly normal. I can factory reset the device, but on iTunes i can't restore it. It said first to turn off find my iPhone, which i did, and then when i try to restore it shows the message : "There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone. The requested resource was not found".
    Can it be Jailbroken? Should i enter DFU mode or try other steps? It seems the iPhone can't connect to the servers for some reason.

It only (barely) charges at all via wireless and only stays connected via cable for about 4 seconds. It’s driving me bonkers.
