When something goes wrong on your iPhone, iPad or iPod, the first method we can think up is to restore the iPhone as new. This is a quite effective method for all system related problems. However, you should make sure you have backup. If not, then I suggest moving to Method 2 instead becasue all data on the iPhone will be removed after restore.

Step 1: Connect your iPhone/iPhone to PC using a USB data cable.
Step 2: Press Home + Power button together until the phone restarts and leave the power button.
Step 3: Keep holding the Home button as soon the phone resets.
Step 4: This should launch iTunes on your computer automatically and it should show a message that says "There is a problem with the iPhone that requires it to be updated or restored".
Step 5: Now click on "Restore" from the Summary menu.
Step 6: Next, click on "Restore and Update" when you are asked and wait until the operation is successfully finished. This may take several minutes, so you will have to wait patiently.
The device will go to factory state before shipment. All data on that device will be deleted and it takes a lot of effort to recover them. So be careful with this method. If you worried about it, you can use Method 2 to fix the problem.
To overcome all these cons in Method 1, it is advised to use a professional tool that is proven to solve this issue. In this part, we will be using Androidphonesoft iOS System Recovery to fix system issues like white screen with apple logo, stuck in recovery mode and other system related issues.
