IPhone 4s stuck on set-up screen which leads to emergency calls only screen?
I haven't turned on my iPhone 4s in quite a while as I got a new one, but I'm trying to sell it and when I turn it on, it leads to the set-up screen that is a gray background that says iPhone on it, & the slider says "slide to set up" in a bunch of languages. However, when I slide it, it leads to the "emergency calls only" screen. How do I get into my iPhone?
1. Make sure a working SIM cars is inserted into the iPhone. In some countries such as the USA the iPhone is SIM-locked to a certain operator. In such case, make sure the SIM you are putting in it is compatible with the iPhone lock (meaning, don't insert a German T-Mobile SIM card into a device that's locked to American AT&T cards only)
2. Connect the iPhone while it's turned on to a computer with iTunes installed on it. If iTunes isn't opening on it's own when the iPhone is connected, just open it manually. After it has recognized the iPhone, you may exit it (don't do anything it offers you, such as updating your firmware version, you can do that later)
3. Press the Power button (top key) + Home button (the middle key at the bottom of the screen) together for 7 seconds until the screen goes black, then let go of the Home button but keep the Power button pushed until the screen lights up again.
4. After the iPhone turns on again, proceed with the setup as requested on screen. If you can, it would be preferable to connect to a Wi-Fi network during the setup when instructed to.
5. If it's working, good. In case it didn't, I'm afraid the "best" (or "only") solution I can offer is to restore the iPhone to a clean-installed firmware. You can do that with iTunes. Just make sure to back up everything on it first using either iTunes or iFunBox.
- When I go on a bike ride or just walk around, my phone screen turns on for some reason and starts dialing numbers in the Emergency Call? Also it has locked me out of my phone for putting in the wrong passcode numerous times. Is there an answer to fix this? I have an iPhone 6S

- Verizon iPhone 4 stuck on shutter after screen replacement? Only rear camera works? After replacing a cracked screen on a verizon iphone 4 the frontfacing camera is stuck on shutter, while the rear camera only works sometimes… I have tried checking the connections, as well resetting everything and even restoring.

- My iPhone 3G is stuck on the dock reset screen/loading circle stuck? For some reason my iPhone 3G is stuck on the dock home screen, like this: and it has that tiny loading logo, like this: that is stuck in the middle. I can't reset because my power button no longer works so I only use the home button to turn it on and since it is jailbroken i slide the top bar, press power, the lock, so i have no use of my power button. The loading circle is still spinning and its been doing this for about an hour >:( Help?
