HELP! iPhone 4s crashing

Hello! I have an iPhone 4s IOS 5.0.1 /32gb with 17.3 available-per settings. Its neen jailbroken. For the past few days I have been having a problem with the phone crashing. I go into an app and within 2 minutes it kicks me back to the home screen. I have tried clearing Safari history, deleting photos, and apps. I have also booted, synced, and still have the same thing happens.
Can anyone assist me? It's driving me crazy!

Hello Psychodoc21!
Did you try killing all the apps from the multitasking section?
Try a reset after killing all the apps by pressing and holding the power and the home screen button for 5-7 sec until the screen goes blank and turning it back ON again.
Hope this helps you

My iphone keeps crashing and turning itself off.....even though battery life is fine...as soon as i plug charger in it comes bcak on....help very frustrating...3g

absolutely that is frustrating. if the battery life is fine there could be two things software or hardware. to find out if your back up your information in itunes and import pictures and then restore the phone as NEW then you can test it out. if it is still shutting off it is hardware related

My iphone 5 crashes (restarts) automatically after updating to ios 7.1 anyboday facing same issues ? Need help !!!!

my iphone 5 crashes (restarts) automatically after updating to ios 7.1 anyboday facing same issues ? Need help !!!!

I am having the same issues--just got off phone with customer service rep--was told that my phone is in recoveyr mode and that I would have to restore it, however, the only things that would be restored would be from my last backup which was in November 2013! I was also told that apple users should not update as soon as the update is available (so why are they sending it to us if they're not sure that there will be any problems!!!). I can't restore now since I am in work--will do it when I go home tonight. In the meantime, I am without a working iphone for the day! This is horrible--I see I'm not the only one who has experienced this!

My iPhone 5s crashes a lot!!!

Hello there,
Why is my iPhone 5s crashing a lot with almost every app I use even sometimes when I open Settings? I like the phone so far other than this very annoying issue. This is my 2nd device after returning the 1st one because of the same problem plus and issue with the microphone that seemed to be over heated after a long period of phone call, and maybe this device will end up to be returned too. I've done hard reset/soft reset many times and even tried to restore as new (from scratch) but nothing really has changed. I enabled the automatically send for diagnostics and usage so that Apple might notice the crazy reports I get from crashing. Please I need help as soon as possible.
Best,
Adel

I don't understand what you're asking.
"But what about settings? Is that also something I can even delete?" I don't follow.
You cannot delete the "Settings" category. You can delete some of the apps that have settings set from within settings. That would delete their settings.
Say you have a suspicious app called "Zzyzx". You could delete that app by holding its icon until it wiggles, then click the "X" in its upper left. If Zzyzx had some settings, deleting the app would delete its settings as well.
"Apps work fine sometimes, but sometimes they just crash." Regardless, find those suspicious ones and delete them. Of course, all Apple's apps cannot be deleted (they would not show the "X" when wiggling the icons). But that is fine - they are not suspicious.

HT201407 during a update of apple my iphone 3GS crashed an now the operating system wont load up..ive tried to reset the phone to the factory settings it took 4 hours an completed but my iphone still wont come on..what can i do to fix the problem? please

during a update of apple my iphone 3GS crashed an now the operating system wont load up..ive tried to reset the phone to the factory settings using itunes it took 4 hours and completed but my phone still wont come on..what can i do to fix the problem? please help #

In trying to include what information all that I could I should have specified I DON'T KNOW THAT IT WAS DEFINATELY JAILBROKEN when I took it to the apple store they told me there's no way for them to tell if it was jail broken or not. I'm only going by what ppl have told me COULD HAVE BEEN DONE TO THE PHONE. With that said the only thing I know for sure is that the apple tech at the Genius Bar told me that someone took control of my root menu in February & I've had no control of my phone since. I asked him how to regain control & how he knew his exact words were "oh that is out of our scope of capabilities here at this level & you would need an apple engineer to fix it". I said ok then how do I get an apple eng then? He laughed & said you can't!!!! To which I was furious I came home & called apple requesting to speak w/the fraud dept to file a report they said we don't have a fraud dept!! So after a 45 mn phone call again I left w/no answers.
@TJBUSMC1973-
I DON'T HAVE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO SPEND HIRING AN ATTORNEY & Although I appreciate your suggestion I fail to how an attorney would be able to facilitate in any way since there's no suspect. I cannot prove that it's him doing it so I certainly can't pursue legal action w/no proof & no money. :'((
Again I thank you for your advice but I don't think that will help.
I was looking more for a TECHNICAL way to avoid this happening w/a new phone should I buy one or trying to get them out of my phone now! Such as installing some kind of software protection?? Someway to clear out the entire phone (other than factory reset which was done 10 x's w/no success, etc. if this person got in then there HAS TO BE A WAY OF GETTING HIM OUT, right????

My Iphone 5 crashed after installing ios8

My iphone 5 crashed when downloading and installing ios8 update. Tried to retrieve in iTunes, but gets error code
What do I do now??

Hi tutts1111,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing, and/or what exactly you are currently seeing. If your iPhone won't start up or respond, you may find the following article helpful:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on - Apple Support
On the other hand, if the frozen screen you are seeing is an icon screen directing you to connect to iTunes, or you are otherwise unable to update/restore your iPhone, then this article may be of more use:

My iPhone has crashed during a sync and now I can't restore from backup as it is asking for password to load the backup yet neither the lock code for the phone or my iTunes Password are working... I have no other password to call upon and need the restore to retrieve info onto my phone, I am a real novice to this...... please help, !!!!

If anyone else is looking for a solution to this same problem, I was able to get it working looking through several older discussions.
The solution was to use the password that I had on my iTunes account the very first time I set up the iPhone about a year ago. I changed my iTunes password about 10 months ago; but apparently, the backups continue to use the password that existed when the phone was first set up.
A couple of troubling things with this are that 1) I didn't apply a password when I did the backup this afternoon so I don't understand why it was required when I did the restore a few hours later. and 2) it makes zero sense why iTunes would not be smart enough to use the current accout password when requiring the password to restore from a backup made with no password.
I thought iTunes and Apple were smarter than that. With so many posts stating exactly the same problem, it is clear that this is bug in the software.
Best,
Craig

Iphone 4 crashing after update 5.0.1

Ever since updating to OS 5.0.1, my iphone keeps crashing. At first it was while playing a game. Now at random times, it crashes.
I have also restored the os once already, still same problems.
Any help?

I have the iOS 5.0.1 update and I had a similar problem this evening after downloading two podcasts from iTunes:
1. From a clean reboot of the iPhone
2. Open Music App
After a brief pause, the Music App crashed.
I did a sync of the iPhone with my Mac, and the behavior changed slightly:
1. From a clean reboot of the iPhone
2. Open Music App
3. Tap More button at the bottom of the screen
4. Tap PodCast item in list
After a brief pause, the Music App crashed.
I tried removing all of the music items as described above. I also tried syncing the podcasts with the computer, and then unchecking the Sync Podcasts checkbox. This removed the podcasts. However, when I repeated the above behavior, the app still crashed.
I then synced my unplayed podcasts from iTunes and did the following:
1. Open the Settings App
2. Tap the General Item
3. Tap the Usage Item
4. Under the Storage list, tap the Music item.
5. Under the Podcasts list, remove all of the podcasts, except the last one that I downloaded this evening.
6. Press the Button at the bottom of the iPhone to leave the Settings App
7. Open the Music App
8. Tap More button at the bottom of the Screen
9. Tap the Podcasts item
At this point, my one remaining podcast appeared in the list. Subsequently, I resynced my podcasts from iTunes to my iPod and was able to listen to my podcasts.

My Iphone 4 crashed and I lost my entire contact list. I restored it to original factory settings but in trying to restore my data from my laptop via Itunes.. this was the feedback: Itunes could not restore the Iphone Dr Johnny Siu Chong because the Iphone refused the request.
I cannot get help from Apple support because i am being asked to supply the serial number which is stored on the phone and I cannot restore my data in the first place. I am reluctant to "Set up as a new Iphone" since I don't know whether if I do I may not then be able to access my data from Itunes...
Please advise what to do. I did not see any tutorials on Youtube to help me with this.
I look forward to an early response.

Hey joshuafromisr,
If you resintall iTunes, it should fix the issue. The following document will go over how to remove iTunes fully and then reinstall. Depending on what version of Windows you're running you'll either follow the directions here:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP

or here:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

Hi there Dedi Darmawan Dimeng,
You may find the troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
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 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.
Issue not resolved
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?

HT1386 I downloaded Itunes 11 and now my Iphone 5 crashes everytime I try to sync it?

I downloaded Itunes 11 and now my Iphone 5 crashes everytime I try to sync it; I am using Windows 7. It has also wiped all my current music off my phone. I have searched google for this problem and I'm just reaching dead ends or solutions for Mac's. Is anyone having the same problems? I have turned the phone on and off, restarted my laptop, used different usb ports but nothing is working. Please help!

When I've uninstall iTunes and reinstall, I find all the same settings in iTunes like one my playlist! But I'm not sure at 100% of that, sorry! But I'm completely sure that your music must will reamain in iTunes and you don't have to reaload that in your library. Maybe wait another answer for safety

My iphone 5s crash

My iphone 5s crash while am talking to friend, the screen went plain white with the apple logo in the middle, that last about 3 minutes then the screen turn to black with white small line rolling cycle in the middle, that one last about 15 minutes, then the screen turn blue for about 2 second, then it went plain white again with apple logo, in middle, for about 3 minutes, it went black again. This. Went on cycle for about 2 hours, I call apple support I spend the night trying to short it out it's really frustrating.
Thank you for your help.

If you restored as new and the problem remains, that means you have a hardware problem and should make an appointment at your nearest Genius Bar to have the device evaluated. If it's under warranty it will be replaced.
