IPhone 4s logo keeps flashing

Hi, so I have an iPhone 4s and I was on it last night and it turned off. I tried holding the lock button, nothing happened. I tried both the home and locke screen button, nothing happened. I plugged it into two different computers and it was not recongnized. I held the lock button and home screen to restore my phone and it says I cannot restore. The first time I restored it nothing happened. My phone has been charging for about an hour now and I want my phone back.
Help please

Hello, kp_possible12. 
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Here are some helpful troubleshooting steps to go through when experiencing this issue. 
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
If you are receiving an error code upon restore, see the steps in the articles below.

    If you have restored to factory settings and started as new, there is nothing more that you can do on your own. Make an appointment at an Apple Store and ask them for help. You might have a hardware problem and the Apple Store techs will be able to determine that.

  • Apple logo keeps flashing and i cant restart because power button is broken

    My apple logo keeps flashing on my phone for about 10 seconds at a time. I know most of you will tell me to hold the power and home button but the problem is my power buttons broken. Also, plugging it into my wall and laptop won't do anything. I'm not sure what else to try, any advice is appreciated.

    There really isn't anything to do.  You'll need to bring your phone to Apple for replacement.

  • My iPhone 4s apple logo keeps flashing.

    I have to have my iphone 4s connected to the wall or my computer in order for it to do anything. The apple logo just keeps flashing on and off and doesn't go to the home screen . My home button doesn't work so i can't reset it, should i just go to apple. Would it be a mother board problem, or battery problem ? thanks

  • My iPod generation 5 was working fine then it turned it self off and it won't switch on or anything and when I put on charge the apple logo keeps flashing on and off. It

    Lastnight I was just playing away on my iPod and next thing it just went off, it was fully charged and everything. Now it won't come back on and when I plug it into the wall the apple logo just keeps flashing on and off. I have tried to reset it by pressing the on and off button and home button but nothing. How can I get it working again.

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable              
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My iphone apple logo is flashing continuely.

    my iphone is not working correctly. i,ve tied everything the troubleshooter told me and it,s not working. the apple logo is continuely flashing.

    If your iphone logo is just flashing the 1st thing I would suggest is to plug into your computer. See if the phone is recognized by the computer. If so it most likely will ask you if you want to set it up or ask you if you wish to restore to store settings. If so say yes and this should bring back your phone
    Hope that helps John

  • Does the apple logo keeps flashing on and off while restoring

    My ipad fell in water and went blank i tried restoring it would show a hardware problem.I got that fixed but it kept showing not charging sign then i forgot my pasword and tried restoring it to the factory setting but mid way it said ur ipad cannot be restored but the restoring process kept going on with the apple icon flashin one too many times in between. please advise.

    Try and force iPad into Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.
