My iPhone 4 won't turn on after being charged for hours?!?

My iphone 4 is 3 years old and it has completely died. I left in to charge for 5 hours and it still wouldn't turn on! The sign comes up on the screen to say it's charging but it's not.

Aand if what razmee209 gave you does not help, then make an appointment at the Genius Bar of the nearest Apple Store to have the hardware checked. Could be the battery is failing.

  • IPhone 5 won't stay on after being charged. It is stuck at the apple logo then turns off after 30 second.

    The phone has been fully charged, software OS 8.1.1 lots of storage and fully operational. Any ideas.

    I understand what you are trying to say, but the device is not fully operational, or you wouldn't be here. Does the device go to logo, then turn off, then go to logo again? If not, then you need to first try a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. If that does not help, then restore from backup. If the restore from backup is not successful, then restore as new, not from a backup. If the restore from new is not successful, then make an appointment at the Genius Bar of the nearest Apple store or Authorized Apple Service provider, depending on your location and have the hardware checked. You might also want to take a look at this link and see if your iPhone 5 qualifies for the battery replacement program.  https://www.apple.com/support/iphone5-battery/  Go to that site and enter your serial number. If you have trouble restoring, see this support document. If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

  • HT1222 iPhone 5s won't turn on after this update. Battery was at 98%, tried holding sleep & home button while plugged in, no good. Any ideas?

    P.S. I just noticed; when I hold the power and home button at the same time while it's plugged in as if I was going to restart it, my computer acts as if I'd plugged it in again (it makes the USB notification sound, itunes opens up again, I get the same "your iphone is in recovery mode" message, etc.), but that's the only response I've been able to get from pressing anything on the iphone. thanks again.

  • My iPhone4 won't turn on even after being charged for 1 hour and when I plug it into my computer nothing happens

    My iPhone4 won't turn on even after being charged for 1 hour and when I plug it into my computer nothing happens. PLEASE HELP

    I have a similar (if not the exact same) problem! Here are some more details if they are helpful.
    My iPhone 4 died earlier today and will not turn back on. It seemed that the battery died while it was not in use. I attempted to charge it on one charging cord in multiple wall outlets and none worked. Assuming it was a malfunction in the cord, I took my phone home to try charging it there.
    Again, I attempted charging it in multiple outlets with a different cord than previously used. None of these seemed to work, though they would flash the Connect to Power screen for a brief moment before returning to a black screen. I assumed that my phone was simply so depleted of battery that it needed a long charge.
    I charged it for 30+ minutes without any success, then attempted to charge it through my MacBook instead of through a wall outlet. iTunes did not even recognize that my phone plugged in (and still hasn't). I've attempted charging it for an extended period of time (1+ hour) with no luck. Sometimes when I press the Power button it will flash the Connect to Power screen once more before returning to black.
    The Apple logo never appears, nor does any apparent progress on charging. I have attempted holding down the Power and Home buttons simultaneously for 10 - 30 second increments. Still no luck. There is no reason anything should be happening with this phone that I can identify.
    I have no warranty and just recently replaced my previous phone which had had similar problems before completely crashing. This is a phone new to me that was previously used but in almost new conditions and factory reset by Apple prior to my purchase.
    Does this mean that my phone battery is dead?
    Is there anything else I can do??

  • My iphone 3G won't turn on after I installed fonts

    My iphone 3G won't turn on and it just stuck on apple logo then loading then turn off then that apple logo appears again .Please help me to fix this problem

    As I thought, which means your iPhone has been hacked, which is not supported by Apple directly or indirectly via these discussions. You need to contact whoever you downloaded the garbage from that allowed you to hack your iPhone and/or the garbage fonts for support with this.

  • IPhone 4 won't turn on after iOS 6 upgrade

    After updating my iphone 4 to iOS6 it won't turn on. The apple logo keeps flashing on a black screen - as it does when it's about to load, then never does load. What to do?

    Hold down Power on/off and home button at same time, when apple logo appears again release.
    If still have same problem force recovery mode restore with iTunes, set up as new first making sure phone goes to home screen.
    If all good - restore from back up
    good luck...
