My phone will not restore, even after updating everything I can. I keep getting error code 4005. Is there a sequence of buttons to push to force a total restore?

Yes there is, try this article

Best if luck
If you see error 9, 4005, 4013, or 4014 when you restore your iOS device - Apple Support
Did you read the link I posted in the first response (and others posted too)? It tells you how to force a restart as well as explaining other steps in resolving this problem right down to how to contact Apple if you cannot solve it. I didn't bother posting all the details on the assumption that it was already all explained in the article and would be read. It very specifically mentions what to do if you see error 4005.
You can put it in recovery mode with buttons but then when you restore it you will get the same error message unless you followed the steps in those links.
are there button combos to force a restore? Or can this be accomplished via another way?
