What is DFU mode? DFU stands for "Device Firmware Update." A DFU restore is the deepest type of restore that you can do on an iPhone. It takes all the software off and puts it back on again. Since it affects the iPhone's firmware and not just its software, a DFU restore can even fix some hardware problems.

If you're a longtime fan of Payette Forward, we recommend the DFU restore in a lot of our videos. When I was at Apple, we did DFU restores all the time, because it's the last thing you do before you decide that the iPhone is actually broken. Somebody would come in with a phone that they think wouldn't work, and we'd always try a DFU restore before giving them a replacement phone.

How To DFU Restore iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, or iPhone XR:
1. Plug your iPhone into a computer with iTunes.
2. Quickly press the volume up button, the volume down button, and then press and hold the side button until the screen turns black.
3. As soon as the screen turns black, keep holding the side button on the right, and then press and hold the volume down button for 5 seconds.
4. After five seconds, keep holding the volume down button and let go of the side button until your iPhone appears in iTunes, and iTunes says it has detected an iPhone in recovery mode.

We'll show you how to put your iPhone XS, XS Max, or XR into DFU mode and walk you through every step of the DFU restore process.
