What is the difference between recovery mode and DFU mode on iPhone?

Does DFU mode erase everything on iPhone?

I'm afraid that if I use DFU to restore my iPhone 4 from a backup, will it erase everything on my iPhone?

I had a conversation with a friend who works at Apple about this and it seems to me that the answer is no. He said the phone will be reset to factory settings but the content will remain on the phone. He was able to restore the phone with no problems. He would also like to point out that if you do a hard reset (hold the home button for 10 seconds) you will lose all your data.

What is the difference between recovery mode and DFU mode on iPhone?

I'm currently in the process of restoring a backup of my iPhone 6 (iOS 11.2.1) from iPhone 6 to iPhone 6.

I read that there are two modes for recovery: DFU and recovery mode. What is the difference between them? Recovery mode allows you to restore the backup, either from iTunes or iCloud. DFU mode allows you to restore the backup, either from iTunes or iCloud, and the phone will be put in DFU mode until you are done. Recovery mode has 3 options. Restore backup from iTunes. Restore backup from iCloud. Cancel. DFU mode has 2 options. Do nothing. The difference between these modes is that in recovery mode, you can choose between the backups, but in DFU mode, you cannot. If you do not know what the difference between these two modes is, you may want to think of it as DFU mode being an advanced recovery mode. When you are restoring a backup, you are restoring the backup. If you are restoring from a backup, the phone will go into DFU mode, so that you can select what backup to restore.

If you have a backup, you can restore the backup to the phone. If you are restoring the backup, you can then select whether to restore the backup or not.

Why did my iPhone become disabled? There are several reasons why you might find your iPhone in the DFU mode. To avoid this, try to connect your iPhone to iTunes as quickly as possible and make sure that it has enough battery life. If your iPhone is still in the DFU mode after trying all these steps, you should contact Apple support.

Does my iPhone require any action to enter DFU mode? Your iPhone may be in the DFU mode, even if it has been recently charged. If you have no problems with the data connection, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or Cellular network, it means that your iPhone is in the DFU mode because of some software glitch.

In the case that you can see a notification message that your iPhone is in the DFU mode, you can restore your device from the iTunes menu. If you cannot restore your device, we recommend that you go to a store that sells iPhone devices, such as an Apple store or an authorized reseller, and ask for help. How do I check if I have a DFU mode? To check if you have a DFU mode, you need to go to the Settings app on your iPhone and click on General. On this screen, you will see the section "Device Firmware Upgrade." If this section is empty, your device is not in the DFU mode.

What can I do to get out of the DFU mode?

If your iPhone remains in the DFU mode, you can follow our instructions to restore your iPhone. If these methods do not work, you should contact Apple support.
