iPhone stuck in recovery mode won't restore.

My iphone 5s is stuck in recovery mode and it only shows up when it's plugged in.

I have tried everything. I have tried to restore it but it just keeps showing error something.

I dont know if it needs a battery replacement or not.

I think it could be caused by not enough storage idk.

It started in the morning, it began going in recovery mode and I was confused. My friend Ava did the hold down thing and gof it out.

Then later that day i dropped it and it went in recovery mode and only worked if it was plugged in.

Ava couldnt fix it and my parents wont let me get a new one because this will be my 6th broken iphone. Its been 3 month and I have no idea what to do.

I went to apple recently and they didnt even run a diagnostic they said it would be 200 dollars to fix.

Pls help I have tried almost everything except battery replacement but I dont know if thats my case. Pls help

Is this a good question?

Follow the steps to get out of iTunes logo if you stuck in Recovery Mode when upgrading to the newest iOS 9. Before start, make sure you have installed the latest version of iTunes: Open iTunes and click Help in the main menu > Select Check for Updates > Download the latest iTunes version to continue.

Step 1. Hold both the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down for a minimum of 10 seconds, or until the device turns off.

Step 2. Push the Sleep/Wake button again to turn on your iPhone. If your iPhone is not in Recovery Mode, the problem is resolved. If it still sticks, continue to step 3.

Step 3. Launch iTunes and connect the iPhone to your computer. You should see a notification in iTunes says that iTunes has detected an iPhone in Recovery Mode. Click Ok.

Step 4. Click the device icon on the left side of the iTunes window, and select the "Summary" tab.

Step 5. Click the "Restore" button.
