Help! iPhone 5 restarting by itself! Battery level won't change after charging.

HELP!
I have a 3 month old iPhone 5 that was recently updated to iOS 7. After a few days of use, I noticed after a night of charging, which I always do, the battery level indicator and percentage did not change. Next, in my carpool ride in to work, when using the iPhone, randomly the screen would freeze, then turn a random color and would shut off and restart.
Then all of a sudden it was fine, no issues.
Then today, the same thing is happening. The battery level, freezing/color changing on the screenscreen/restarting issues are back.
I don't know whats going on. Never had an issue with any of 3 past my iPhones.
Thanks in advance,
Josh

I'm sorry, it seems that the problem is that my phone WON'T restore. I just tried restoring again and it keeps giving me the 2001 error. Help.

My mac volume level won't change after sleep

My "Line Out" (2.1 Speaker System) does not seem to accept volume changing commands either by the Apple Wireless Keyboard, or System Preferences > Sound. This happens all the time after I put the computer to sleep. Before when I switched to Internal Speakers then back it would "unlock" and let me adjust the volume, but that is no longer the case (I should point out that the volume controls are not disabled, it's just that changing the level does not do anything). I can however adjust and use Internal Speakers just fine. This forces me to restart my computer in order to adjust the volume again.

Resetting the SMC and PRAM did not solve my problem, however this did manage to solve my problem across reboots and sleep:
1. Command + Space / Open Spotlight.
2. Search for "Audio MIDI Setup".
3. Select your sound system.
4. Change the format to something else, then change it back.
At this point it should fix the volume level and allow you to change it. I have only done this once, and it has worked since I made this topic.
Let me know if it helps.

My iPhone 4s turned itself off and won't turn back on. What do I do?

My iPhone 4s turned itself off and won't turn back on. What do I do?

Thanks for your help. I tried plugging it in but nothing happened, I actually still had battery power left. I was able to solve my problem by holding down the power and home buttons, which reset the phone and got it started again.
Thanks for trying

HT1267 What do I do if my iPhone just switched itself off and won't turn back on again? It does not even register power when I plug it in to my car or home charger or computer???

If you hold the home button and power button for about 10 seconds it will turn back on. I have had his issue 3 times but don't know what fixes it for good

C3-01 won't start after charging

I'm so angry right now but I will try and be cool about this!
I bought C3-01 mobile phone about four months ago and it is already causing me problems.
The mobile phone simply won’t start after charging. Last time i charged it, it miraculously came to life only, and only after annoying me for about hour and a half. Now I fear it is completely dead!
Battery was not completely empty so the phone should still start even if the wall socket is broken. Which is not, wall socket works perfectly.
Nothing helps! I tried removing the battery and then restart. Removing the battery then removing the sim card, memory card and that piece of “advanced technology” simply won’t start!
I didn’t buy my new phone so that I can use my old Motorola mobile, which btw., still works after 4 years of intense usage.
I will never buy Nokia again!

Hi,
Sorry to hear that your phone is not starting after charging.
I would suggest one more thing, which maybe helps. If you have another battery, please try.
If not, i would recommend to visit Nokia Care Point in your area.

IPhone 4S Shut itself off and won't turn on

my iphone 4s has turned off and won't turn on.
it doesn't respond to the power button and won't respond to being plugged in.
the last time I used it was about an hour before I noticed it.
the last thing I did was put one photo on to my photostream.
it had been sitting in an air conditioning room, and on a desk during the whole hour or so I wasn't using it.
anyone have any ideas what might be wrong with it?
i am 100% sure I'll have to take it to a store to figure it out unless it suddenly works.. but any ideas would be helpful....

My 4s did the same thing yesterday. I locked the screen, then about ten minutes later I went to use it and nothing would work. Like the phone was completely dead. I tried everything, plugging it in, reboot, nothing at all worked. Then about five minutes later I hit the lock button again and the apple logo appeared and it started rebooting. Not sure what happened!!

HELP!!!! Aperture 1 won't open after I installed Snow Leopard.

Aperture 1.5 won't open after I installed snow leopard. Why is it not working?

Because it's incompatible. You need to upgrade to version 2.1.4 or newer.

New battery & still won't hold a charge

Hi All:
I have a 6th Gen 120GB silver Classic. A few weeks ago the battery started to totally drain in a few hours' time. I had a new battery installed a few days ago, with no change.
I've done a few soft resets to no effect. The tech who replaced the battery says it could be the charging port, but it stays charged while connected to my machine or through the wall charger, so I doubt that's the culprit. I'm starting to think my only recourse is a restore, which is something I want to avoid if at all possible--I have everything backed up, but it's still going to take me a few weeks to reload my library
So, has anyone had this problem, and how did you solve it?
Thanks in advance!!

Presumably, there is a warranty on the new battery. Perhaps you should talk again to whoever changed it.

(T530 with openSUSE) Brightness won't change after mainboard replacement

Hi!
The mainboard of my ThinkPad T530 2429 6JG was replaced today. Now the brightness control doesn't work anymore. I'm using Linux (opensuse 12.3). The brightness keys on the keyboard seem to work, as the usual "brightness control animation" is shown. Also the file /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness is updated correctly. However, the screen brightness just won't change, neigher up nor down. There were no issues with the old board and I haven't done any changes to my operating system. Therefore it must be an issue with the board. Does anyone know if there's been a recent change in firmware etc.? (The new mainboard is probably from April 2013)
By the way: In Windows 7 (I have both systems on my HDD) the brightness can be changed without any problems.
Many thanks!!
Jan

got same problem... need to change acpi_os

Iphone 5c turns itself off and won't turn on until plugged in

I just received my replacement iPhone 5c and it worked fine the first night, the next day, the phone turned itself off, and would not let me turn it back on. I tried the reset option by holding down the lock and the home buttons, but that did not work. my phone only turns on when it is plugged in. It then shows me that battery is lows, and then powers on ad says 100% charged.
My lower screen blinks while it is plugged in as well.....
Any help?

You might have a bad battery. But first try recalibrating the battery gauge. Run the battery all the way down until the phone shuts off and doesn't restart. Then charge for 4 hours with the wall charger. Repeat the process. If the problem remains you need a new battery.

IPhone 5C - Turned itself off and won't come back on.

I have owned this phone since the day it came out (20th September) and it was fine up until a few weeks ago. It decided - frequently - to reboot itself, lines would appear on my screen and the brightness would decrease until the phone turned itself off. Soon the apple logo would appear and everything would be fine. I noticed that it would do this while I was on it while it was charging or when a lot of apps were open. I avoided doing these things, but it still would happen. Sometimes it would do it and the apple logo would not appear - I learned of the holding down the home and sleep/wake button at the same time hack, and would do that to get it back on. As time went on the problem would persist, sometimes it would take a few attempts to get the phone back on - I removed some recent apps and the phone was fine for about a week.
Last Friday the phone did it again, so I decided to factory reset/restore through iTunes and then restore my backup. For a couple of days the phone was fine, up until last night where the phone switched off - thinking this was like all the other times I did what I'd usually do. But nothing, I've left it to charge, I've attempted to restore it. When I go to restore it the apple logo appears and the process bar appears, however iTunes turns around and says that it cannot restore the phone.
I went onto here to try and attempt to have it sent back for service, I put in my IMEI number, and it said that I need to turn "Find my iPhone" off, I did that and now it says that it's still on, when it isn't!
Does anyone know what I can do? Or shall I just ring them and figure out how to send it back through that?

This happened to me yesterday. This probably isn't any use to you now, but for others with this question. This morning I took the back off of my phone, and I took the battery out and plugged it in to my laptop. It immediately lit up. We put the battery back in and restored it and it works better than ever. Not sure if this will work for all, but it worked for me!

My battery still won't hold a charge. Can't Apple get me a new iphone under warranty?

I have an iphone 4S. With no apps running it will die in six hours on standby. I've tried everything on the support page, rebooting, restarting, reloading the software, and it makes absolutely no difference. I've been to the Genius bar and they just wipe everything and hand it back to me with a new OS. After spending hours to restore everything it is back to the usual battery drain. If I actually use the phone then it lasts only a couple of hours at the most. Apple has dragged this out for 11 months and I'd like a new phone. Is there any way to get them to give you one or do they just wipe, add the OS all over again and hand it back for 12 months until the warranty expires?

You would have to ask Apple. ONLY they can determine if the iphone is defective or not

Unexpected iphone shut down when battery level is 100% at point of call (making

Hi, I need help. My iPhone 4 (bought 3 years ago) shuts down unexpectedly. At first when the battery was still 30%full, but then it got worse and now I can't use it anymore only when I'm connected to power. I restored it in the hope it would help, unfortunately not!. It happens when getting or making a call even at 100% charged even while receving massages.Is it a battery problem??Please help

Why are you doing this? This is completely unnecessary and in fact "may" be damaging your battery. Fact is, lithium-based batteries do not like to be completely discharged on a regular basis. Apple only recommends you do this once a month. Read more here:
http://www.apple.com/batteries/iphone.html
This type of battery prefers a partial rather than a full discharge. Frequent full discharges should be avoided. Instead, charge the battery often. Full discharges put additional strain on the battery & will shorten your battery life.

Swollen battery.. won't hold a charge? HELP!!

Let me start off with... the Blackberry Curve has to be one of the worst phones I've ever had. Seriously.
I purchased my first Blackberry in 2010 I believe and it was the Curve 8530. Started off great but then I eventually started getting problems like my trackpad would stop working and then certain letters wouldn't work anymore. After sending it in for repair 3-4 times, which doesn't work they just fix the phone and it'll work for a week or so and then the problem re-occurs. Well luckily, or not so lucky, I was given a brand new Curve 9300 3G last year. Things started out great and I actually loved the phone. It was much better than the first one but of course, problems started.
From trackpad not working to white screens, this Curve sucks too. Now I'm facing a battery problem. I started noticing the battery cover wasn't fitting properly. At first I assumed it was from dropping it or something but then I tried removing the battery and placing the cover back on. It closed properly. Right when I go to put my battery back in, I noticed that the middle of the battery was swollen. I immediately took it out thinking it might blow up or something and switched it with the battery of my old Curve. Within a week I had the same problem...
On top of this, the batteries would get to 80% and just die completely. So, for two days I would charge each battery one by one use it until it died and switch it for the other. Obviously this gets annoying so I ended up finding another Curve battery. It was fine for about a month or so before the same thing occurred.
What sucks is I'm in a 3 year contract. I can't afford to cancel my contract or purchase a new phone so I'm stuck until I'm eligible for an upgrade which is who knows when. I want to know if it's me ruining these batteries, this stupid Curve or if these batteries (somehow all 3) are defected and how can I stop this from happening from other batteries?

Hey Jenna510,
Welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
When charging the BlackBerry® smartphone are you using the charger that came with the BlackBerry® smartphone? Or a 3rd party USB wall charger or car charger charger? If you are using an official BlackBerry® smartphone charger, we would suggest contacting your point of sale for warranty and repair options.
Thanks.

Help! PowerBook G4 crashed on sleep, won't start after forced shutdown.

Urgent call for help: After I downloaded a RealPlayer update today, I neglected to run Disk Utility permissions repair. A little later I left my G4 PowerBook running for a few hours and when I came back and tried to wake it up, it wouldn't come out of sleep mode (white light was pulsing).
I held down the Power button for about 20 seconds but nothing happened, so I removed the battery, which also didn't force a shutdown (white light still on). Finally, after the battery had been out for 5 minutes, I replaced it, plugged the computer in again, and held the Power button down, and it finally shut down (white light went off after about 15 seconds).
I then tried to restart the computer by pressing the Power button, but now nothing at all happens--no chime; it doesn't even go to a gray or blue screen. I've searched Discussions and found a post from "Maxit" suggesting a reboot from the Install disk to someone whose screen went as far as blue and what to do after that to prevent the problem in the future, but since the computer won't draw power, I can't insert the Install disk. (I've copied Maxit's fix below.)
Is there anything I can do to get the computer at least to the point where I can reboot from the Install disk--besides wait until AppleCare and/or my local repairman wakes up on Monday morning? Thanks for any suggestions!
Maxit's fix:

First thing I would do is to restart from the 10.3 installation Disk and rather than proceeding with the installation, go to the menu bar, find Disk Utility, open it and run "Repair." If errors show up, run again.
Then, I would boot into Safe Mode (which forces a directory repair). See this KB article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107393
This will take longer than a normal restart. Once booted, go into Disk Utility on the drive and repair permissions, then restart. Were this not to resolve your issue, then I would suggest doing an "Archive and Reinstall" of 10.3:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
Then update the software to 10.3.9 (be sure to repair permissions after the update).
Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9) 15"

Yes, the sleep light stayed on until I was finally able to force a shutdown by removing the battery for a time, putting it back, and holding down the power button.
You've asked a good question: I don't know why it didn't go black as soon as I took the battery out, or why I had to hold down the power button for almost 30 seconds before it finally did.
Maybe when the battery is drained to 1%--which is what the indicator said when I finally realized what had happened and plugged it back in--its reserves are so low that it doesn't have the wherewithal to turn itself off. Or maybe after 5 hours of hibernation it was cranky when I tried to wake it up. . Do you know why it wouldn't respond as expected as soon as the battery was removed or the power button held down?
