My Iphone 6 plus stuck on logo with progress bar
22-01-2021, 10:59 AM
Please!!!! please! help me out. I have iPhone 6 plus 64GB it is stuck on the apple logo with a progress bar. It happened when I was presented with an update notification. at first, it was running on IOS 12.0. After an update notification appeared, i connected the phone to iTunes and everything went well with no errors at all. but the phone never gets past the progress bar. It loads until it stops at the last 1-millimeter end. at stays there for even a day. I tried to flash it using the latest 3u tools , it flashes well with no errors at all but still the same thing happens. I tried DFU mode flash but still the same thing happens.
Surprisingly, if i connect it to pc, it shows everything well. I can even put in music, movies and other files. I have include all the pics.
please help its the only phone i have right now.

try updating to 12.5.1 or you search for a way to downgrade back to 12.1

1. Force Restart:-
This is often the first solution to attempt for various iPhone issues. The method varies depending on your iPhone model:-
-iPhone 8 and later:- Press the Volume Up button quickly, then the Volume Down button quickly. Finally, press and hold the Side button until the Apple logo reappears.
-iPhone 7/7 Plus:- Press and hold the Power button and the Volume Down button simultaneously for about 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
-iPhone 6S and older:- Press and hold the Power button and the Home button simultaneously for about 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
2. Free Up Storage:-
If the force restart doesn't work, you'll need to free up storage space. Connect your iPhone to a computer and open iTunes (for older computers) or Finder (for newer macOS versions). Locate your iPhone and look for the storage breakdown. You can then:-
-Offload Unused Apps:- This frees up storage space by keeping app data while removing the app itself. You can reinstall the app later when needed.
-Delete Large Files:- Photos, videos, and music can take up significant space. Review these and delete unwanted items.
-Move Photos and Videos to iCloud:- If you have enough iCloud storage, you can optimize your device storage by keeping only low-resolution versions on your iPhone while storing full-resolution versions in the cloud.

It says that you have tried numerous flashing methods but are still experiencing a persistent issue with the loading bar not complete after updating to iOS 12.5. Have you explored contacting Apple Support or forums for specialist assistance? It's perplexing that the problem persists after successful installation.

First off, try a force restart. It's like giving your phone a little shake to wake it up. The way you do it depends on your iPhone model, but it's usually a combo of volume buttons and the side button. Check online for the exact steps for your phone.
If that doesn't work, your phone might be stuck in recovery mode. You'll need a computer for this one. Connect your phone to it while it's in recovery mode (again, there are specific steps online) and iTunes or Finder should pop up. Try restoring your iPhone from a backup. But be warned, this might erase everything on your phone, so make sure you have a recent backup.
If restoring doesn't cut it, it could be a hardware issue. In that case, it's time to visit the Apple Store or an authorized repair center. They can take a look and hopefully get your phone back to normal.
If none of these solutions work, you can try to follow much better instruction below.

A few things to try:
1. Force a proper DFU restore via iTunes/Finder
Make sure you're doing a true DFU mode (not just Recovery Mode — they're different). In DFU, the screen stays completely black. Then hit Restore (not Update) in iTunes.
2. Try a different USB cable and port
Sounds basic, but a dodgy cable can interrupt the flashing process right at the end — which matches what you're describing.
3. Use a dedicated unlock/repair tool
If iTunes and 3uTools keep failing, try more tools like drfone, imyfone, magfone iPhone Unlocker, which has a Fix iOS System feature specifically designed for situations like yours (stuck on Apple logo, boot loops, etc.). It's more straightforward than manually wrestling with DFU mode and has worked for me when iTunes gave up. Just select the standard repair mode first so it doesn't wipe your data.
4. Check your storage
64GB with lots of media might have caused the update to fail due to insufficient space mid-install.
Don't give up — this is almost always fixable without losing your data! Let us know which method works. 🤞
