DFU and Recovery modes

In this section we'll cover both the DFU mode and the Recovery mode separately.

DFU mode

In this section, we will see how to launch the DFU mode, but before that we will explore what DFU means. DFU stands for Device Firmware Upgrade, which means this mode is used specifically with iOS upgrades. This is a mode where a device can be connected with iTunes and still do not load the iBoot boot loader. Your device screen will be completely black in DFU mode because neither the boot loader nor the operating system is loaded. DFU bypasses the iBoot so that you can downgrade your device.

How to do it...

We need to follow these steps in order to launch a device in DFU mode:

Turn off your device.
Connect your device to the computer.
Press your Home button and the Power button, together, for 10 seconds.
Now, release the Power button and keep holding the Home button till your computer detects the device that is connected.
After some time, iTunes should detect your device.
Make sure...
