I’m trying to put my phone into recovery mode but when I hold the home button and plug it into the computer it just starts up like it normally would instead of going into recovery mode. Can anyone tell me what I’m doing wrong?

Keep the phone plugged in. Hold home and Power for 8-10 seconds or until the phone turns off. You may need to hold the power button again for a few seconds to make sure the phone switches on again while plugged in. Keep holding home button when doing so until it shows the iTunes recovery symbol.

DO NOT plug into iTunes use your standard charger and cable. Plug your phone into your charging cable then press and hold the power and home button (depending on your model of iPhone) until you see it go into recovery mode. When you see the recovery mode indication on your screen unplug from the wall charger and plug into you iTunes device then began your restore or update.

It looks like you have a faulty home button, does your home button work 100%?
