Is it truly possible to interrupt a restore at the very beginning and be successful at retrieving photos from an iphone that has been disabled after an ios update?
Is this a good question?

No
Not even apple
Hopefully you have an iCloud Backup

Actually there is :) but only if you connect to itunes and it syncs. If so download iFunbox and go into app manger and click photos one you are in photos you can view all of the photos and select them and export them onto your computer.

what do you mean by "disabled" ?
by Vincent Monteil
It's my dad's iphone5 and he claims he downloaded an ios update that caused it to become 'disabled.' The display says iphone disabled. According to everyone and every web discussion, it seems the only way to get the phone going again is to reset back to factory settings and sacrifice the data. However, I saw one comment that said if you start the restore then immediately cancel it, it will get the phone back to a point where you could backup/ download/ sync data. Just wondering if anyone else has tried this and whether or not they had success.
