possible problems

If you released the “Volume Down” button, but the iPhone began to reboot immediately or the recovery mode is activated (the iTunes connection icon appears on the screen), then simply turn it off and repeat the procedure described above (again, first read all the points carefully, and then proceed with their implementation).

STEP # 1. connect iPhone to computer

With a cable, of course. After connecting the smartphone, iTunes should start automatically (if it has not started, open it manually) and show the connection icon. If iTunes asks you to unlock your iPhone, you need to unlock it.

DFU mode on iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, or iPhone XR: how to enable

DFU mode (aka Device Firmware Upgrade Mode), as you know, very often remains the most radical, but also the most effective way to “bring to life” a damaged or faulty iPhone.

Of course, due to the fact that iOS is generally stable (if not interfered with), most iPhone users never use DFU mode (and some do not even know about it). Nevertheless, it is, and with various emergency situations with a smartphone, it can still help to solve even very difficult-seeming problems.

How To Turn OFF The iPhone XS Max

Another thing is that the iPhone XR, iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max do not have a Home button. Therefore, a user who has purchased any of these models instead of his old iPhone (7, 7 Plus and older) has to sometimes retrain to operate a new smartphone and get used to doing without the “ancient”, but such a convenient Home button. So in the DFU mode on the iPhone XR, XS and XS Max, now you also need to be able to enter without it. So what next about.

how to get iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max or iPhone XR out of DFU mode

Considering that it is impossible to “accidentally” switch any iPhone to DFU mode (but still, this is one of the most popular reasons for contacting a service center), this is especially in the case when, for example, you forgot to backup your data. The procedure for exiting DFU is simple:

  • in DFU mode, once and quickly press the “Volume up” button (on the smartphone body);
  • then once and quickly press the “Decrease the volume” button;
  • press and hold the side button for at least 10 seconds (until the standard Apple boot screen turns on);
  • after downloading iOS 12, as usual, enter the password to unlock the iPhone.

How to enable DFU mode on iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max or iPhone XR in iTunes

First, let us recall that the procedure for restoring iPhone through DFU mode involves deleting all user data stored in the smartphone’s memory. Therefore, if the device still somehow works and it is possible to back up the data, then be sure to do it. Exiting the DFU mode is also not difficult, because even if you forgot to create a backup copy of the data, but have not yet started the reboot procedure (returning to the factory settings), then it is better to exit, make a backup, and then start all over again.

So, we will re-save everything we can and move on. In addition to the iPhone itself, we need a standard set for work:

  • a computer (Mac can be used, Windows-PC can be used) with iTunes installed (required in the most recent version);
  • Lightning-to-USB (or Lightning-to-USB-C) cable.

STEP # 3. factory reset

Having successfully activated the DFU mode, click “OK” in the window with the notification “iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode”, then in the application window, click the “Restore iPhone.” button and wait for the recovery procedure to complete. After it finishes, your iPhone XR, iPhone XS or iPhone XS Max will automatically exit DFU mode and reboot itself into normal mode.
