[D3xus]

Before I start, you have to know your history ;)
Recovery:
Looks like this:

You are locked out of your device and the only option is to restore your device to stock firmware or custom firmware.
DFU:
Damn I fudged Up mode; iTunes percieves your device as in recovery mode, but the device's screen does not display anything.
Pwned DFU:
Read above: same as DFU mode except it is a special type of DFU mode for upgrading/downgrading to custom firmwares created by sn0wbreeze, PwnageTool or redsn0w.

Lock Button:
