If iTunes is open, exit iTunes
Disconnect iPhone from computer USB
Click Start menu on desktop
Go to Control Panel
Go to Programs
Go to Programs and Features
Select Apple Mobile Device Support and click repair
Connect iPhone to computer USB (device should install automatically)
Open iTunes
When prompted, click restore iPhone
OS should install now and restore factory settings

I end up selling for 250 USD! If cannot fix, then the phone goes out fast.

Hi all, my iPhone 5s suddenly shut down without a reason, it was neither plugged into electricity nor smashed onto the ground... All of a sudden i was trying to check if i got any messages and bam the phone was dead. I tried the press both buttons together but the Apple logo didn't show. I connected it to the computer, but it wasn't detected. I put it in DFU mode and the computer saw it and the itunes said a phone in dfu mode is detected and wanted to perform restoration. long story short, the error 4005 kept appearing. i tried two PCs and a Mac and the problem persisted. Since I live oversees and we don't have official Apple Store, i took it to a technician, who checked it and told me the battery is damaged. he said he will replace it for me, but expressed skepticism that something else could have been damaged as well. I am waiting for him to get a replacement battery to determine whether it's only the battery or something else is damaged

Does anyone know if changing the battery could solve this issue, even though the phone wasn't connected to power when it died?

Yes, the battery should be your issue in case like this! Ok

The technician said he replaced the battery but the phone didn't turn on. He said he is working on other hardware issues... I guess my iPhone 5S has died for good

5s wont boot up, error 4005

So after fixing the battery and lightning port on my Iphone 5s i cant turn it on.

I have a feeling that its not even charging.

So i hooked it up to my laptop to try and restore it using itunes. After downloading the software it started recovery. Suddenly the display lit up and i saw the apple logo on a black screen. That was as far as i got, it kept saying waiting on iphone in itunes and after a while i got error 4005.

Somebody told me to try it without lcd but that wouldn't work either.

any suggestions?
