[QUOTE="VitruvianDoc, post: 1635545, member: 13736"] A minimum of a complex and maybe even a novel. The issue has to due with overloaded apple servers and what people think were bricked phones. What happened: Download iOS 5 Upgrade software, says verifying with apple and issues a SHSH blob Upgrade approved, phone reboots, software loads. After upgrading, again verifies upgrade with apple and if not approved, causes a hang screen. (people think bricked) BUT Hold the home + power for 10 seconds, force reboot, and just like magic you have a phone sitting at the restore screen ready to be restored. And as with every software release, it is recommended to back up and sync apps. A lot of people fail to due so... oops. Its common technical sense to back any and everything up before a major upgrade. I had no issues what so ever but my wife's did the above issue and I had it resolved and restored with maybe an extra 5 minutes involved. [/QUOTE]
