My new iPhone 5c won't turn on

I got a new iPhone 5c about three weeks ago, and last night it was having issues with turning on and continuously. Eventually, I did something right and got it to stay on overnight. However, in the morning, it had low power, so I plugged it in to charge. When it got to around 30%, it died. It's a black screen, and when I hold the lock button, it takes only half a second for the logo to come up. It stays for about ten seconds, then the screen goes black again. I've tried the same thing holding both buttons with no results. I plugged it into my computer, but iTunes couldn't see it and it didn't pop up. Now it's charging at a different place in the house, and my stepdad thinks leaving it for an hour or two will fix it, but I'm not sure. What could have happened to make it do this? I didn't drop it, get it wet, or anything like that. It happened out of the blue. Do I have to take my phone into customer service to get it fixed today?

  • Brand new iPhone 6 won't turn on

    I had my new iPhone 6 yesterday and everythings seems to be fine. It had more than half charge with no open apps on the background when i went to sleep and it was turned off in the morning. The alarm had not ringed. So i have tried everything including hard resetting, charging and reading everything i could find. Yet, there is no response from the device. Can someone please comment if they are able to solve this without having to go to store again.

    How long did you try and charge it? Plug the device in and make sure that you have allowed it to charge undisturbed for at least 30 minutes. With it still connected to the charger, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release the buttons. This could take up to 30 seconds. The phone should reboot at that time.
    If this does not help, then make an appointment at the Genius Bar of the nearest Apple store or authorized Apple service provider to have the device looked at.

  • New iphone 4 won't turn on after restoring back up

    I cracked my phone screen and so I had to get a new phone just today. So, I was now restoring the back up I created last night on iTunes so I left it alone for a bit while I did some cooking. It sort of "switched off" but had my wallpaper blurred in the background with the message saying "restoring in progress". So I left it alone. Now it's completely off so I assumed the restoration is done. I've tried to turn it on, the Apple logo comes up and then disappears after about 3-5 seconds. Nothing happens afterwards and now I'm stumped. How do i turn it on? Please help asap thanks

    Hi were you able to resolve yours?
    I was very worried losing all my medical stuff on my iPad Air 2, plus i have nothing to use for the next day! So i have to try all the possible things i read on the internet!! And this worked on my part (Thank God, and thank you Google)
    Perform a hard reboot
    Hold down the Home button and Power button on your iPhone or iPad and keep holding them until you see the Apple logo. Once you do, you can let go. When your device boots back up, go ahead and check to see if the apps have started re-downloading. If they still appear to be stuck, continue on.

  • Brand new Iphone 4s won't turn on or reset

    I 've upgraded my phone and got the 4s, excited times although It won't charge either on the socket or laptop. It did charge on the first time from laptop but run the battery out so quick, just turned it on, no phone call, nothing and it went dead in 5 hours. Got home the night, plugged it in my laptop and got really hot and frezed the laptop so needed to unpluged it.
    Itunes not recognise it either...
    I tried to reset it, nothing. Apple proving that they product are really diferent than the others

    Apple will not touch your phone since you changed the screen yourself.  Bring your phone to a 3rd party repair shop and see what they say.

  • New Iphone 4s won't sync, can't get past 'syncing calendars step 2 of 6'???

    New Iphone 4s won't sync off my computer, can't get past 'syncing calendars step 2 of 6'.  Got 1/3 of old apps, and contacts, but a 2/3 of my old apps are on the computer....  not real computer savvy, any suggestions?

    no no a hard reset is just something you do to the phone, you wont lose any data or anything else its litterally like starting your phone on a fresh slate running wise but you wont lose anything at all, all your apps settings etc will still be right as you left it. think of it as a step above turning it off and on again

  • My iPhone 5 won't turn on, the screen just stays black!

    My iPhone 5 won't turn on I have held the power button to see if it's dead or not and it doesn't seem to change the screen it just black I thought the battery could of died or something similar it only happened about 2 hours ago please help!

    Hey Thermali,
    Thanks for the question, and great troubleshooting so far. To completely isolate the issue, you may want to follow these steps:
    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 LCIs and corrosion.
    - Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    - After at least 15 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.

  • My iphone 5 won't turn on but when plugged into power source it keeps showing apple logo?

    My iPhone 5 won't turn on at all and then when I plug it into a power source either into a plug socket or into my laptop with the USB cable it keeps showing start up screen with apple logo over and over again on a loop.
    I have tried holding the top and front button together, this didn't work. I have also tried connecting to my laptop and following the reboot steps that I found on another discussion forum. Neither worked for me. The phone just won't reboot and it keeps continuing to loop the apple logo screen over and over without me touching anything.
    The iPhone won't even connect to itunes and so itunes seems to not recognise my phone because its not even turning on (just continually apple logo screen appears for 5 seconds, goes to black screen and then repeats).
    I don't know what is happening to it! Can anyone help? Is it a fault with the hardware or have I dont something to it? The next appointment at the genius bar for me is monday so I'm going to keep looking for any more recent ones until then but I really need to get it sorted before then so if anyone can help that would be great!
    Thanks

    Try a reset when your iPhone is plugged into the charger as you say it does not respond when not plugged in...
    Press and hold the Home and On/Off buttons simultaneously until you see the Apple logo, then release.  This may take up to 10 seconds.  This is the equivalent of a re-boot and you will not lose any data.
    See if it will charge after this.

    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least 15 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    after that click okay when it says itunes has detected an iphone in recovery mode. Then click restore
    after that try again
