HT1212 iPhone can't be switched off

I have a message telling me that Icloud not backed up and then I cant switch off the phone or do anything. When i connected it to the computer, since the screen is frozen with that message, I cant log in to the Itunes as well.

Hey!
I have tried holding down the home and power button countless of times. It doesnt respond at all. Plug my phone to a charger and hold down the power button and my phone switched on. But it said Activation Required and said connect to Itunes. As e screen remains on the connect to Itunes screen, I disconnect the charger from my phone and my phone went dead instantly. My battery is full btw. Tried connecting to Itunes through my Macbook Pro but iTunes doesnt detect my device and the apple logo flashes for about a few seconds on my phone and then disappear and then came back on again. My Iphone has been connected to my laptop for about 30 mins and the apple logo has been coming on and off for 30 minutes now and Itunes has not detect my device yet.
SIGHHH.

    Connect the iPhone to the compter you usually sync with
    and use iTunes on that computer to do the restore.

  • My iphone does not automatically switch off the display light when locked. How do I fix this?

    I have an iPhone 5 with iOS 8.2 software.
    My iPhone does not automatically switch off the display light when it is locked. Therefore, if I get an e-mail/text message/pop-up from other application, the light just stays on, which obviously drains my battery.
    The problem just started yesterday, and it has been a couple of days since I updated the software, so I wouldn't think the software update is the problem.
    I have tried restarting the phone (using home and lock button), but that did not work.
    Something else that seems weird is that once in a while, a blue beam rolls over the screen from one side to the other. I don't know why it does this, and have no idea whether this is related to the display light issue.
    I hope someone is able to help by telling me what to do in order to get my phone to act normal again.
    Thank you x

    Restart your device by holding the home and power button until the Apple logo appears. You will not lose any data.

  • How to find my lost iPhone if it is switched off

    How to find my lost iPhone if it is switched off?

    Go out and look for it.  Any form of remote tracking, including find my iPhone, requires that the device be powered on, and that it be connected to the internet (wifi or cellular doesn't matter - but it must have an active internet data connection).
    If powered off, it is as inert as a brick - no way to do anything via remote commands to it at all.

    You say iPhone 4s but list an iPhone 3GS
    Try to reset:
    Hold the Sleep/Wake & home buttons until the screen goes dark & the Apple logo appears
    To power off:
    Hold the Sleep\Wake button until you see slide to power off then slide to power off

  • IPhone should not be switched off when screen is locked

    Why we can switch off iPhone when it is locked? when phone is locked it should not allow to switch off.
    Is this a bug or desired functionality?
    Also I just found that if someone else register my iPhone with his/her apple id then it will never show any alert. So find my iPhone app is total waste. This app is good only if your phone is registered with your apple id.
    Hope apple knows this problem, if not then this is really hopeless and not acceptable from them.
    Thanks,
    Yogi

    1st of all, tyvm for your reply, really appreciated
    question though, are you 100% sure about it ?

  • My Iphone 4 will not switch off silent .... Please help.

    I Updated My IPhone 4 on the 2nd of Jan 2013 and since then it will not switch off silent mode with the switch on the side of the phone , does any one know what i can do or if there is any other way to switch it off silent ?

    First, try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data by resetting, but it can clear some glitches.
    If this does not help, set it up as new device, shown here:
    How to back up your data and set up as a new device
    If still not luck, you'll have to get it looked at by visiting an Apple Store or contact Apple to get it serviced:

    You may have an app running. Try force quitting. Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until a red slider appears, then press and hold the Home button until the app quits.

    These features are most likely result of faulty battery. Make Genius reservation and take to Apple Store for free quick battery diagnostic testing.

    Try a hard reset and go from there. You might try a manual install (using DFU Mode), as outlined in the link below.

  • My IPhone can't be switched on nor it can be restarted. I have no idea what happened.

    Hey!
    I have some huge issues with my Iphone 4. Before I start describing the problems, I shall describe the situation my Iphone has been in.
    I bought my Iphone 4 on Aug 2011 in Singapore and it was stolen a few months later(Nov 2011). Fortunately, the police found my phone and returned it to me last month (July 2012). When I got back my phone, my phone was jail-broke. I managed to restore the phone back to its factory settings by doing a hard reset through Itunes.
    And now as I am travelling around USA, my phone broke down. It happened after I snapped a photo up on the mountain and my phone just died. What happened was after snapping a photo, I placed it back in my pocket. I took it out again a few minutes later and the screen was black. I tried restarting my phone and there was no response. I was up on the mountain and there was no contact with any water or liquid. I did not drop my phone either and I was stationary after snapping a photo. Could it be the water vapour from the clouds since I was pretty high up the mountain?
    Initially, different thoughts came to my mind. I thought it could be the low temperature and the altitude that could cause my phone to not function temporarily. But when I descend from the mountain, my phone did not work still. So I plugged my Iphone to my charger and it switched on. Then on the screen it said Activation required and asked me to plug my phone to Itunes. So I tried plugging it to my laptop and initially the Apple logo appeared and then it disappeared after a few seconds and then came back on again. It has been doing that whenever I connect my phone to my laptop. FYI, my laptop is a Macbook pro. Then I tried disconnecting my phone from my charger and my laptop, and it cant be switched on at all. As i plugged my phone to the charger, my phone switches on and asked for an Activation and then it will stay on the connect to Itunes Screen. The instant I disconnect the charger from my phone, the screen went black.
    My concerns now are, 1) What are the procedures if I were to bring my phone to an Apple repair store in USA since I got my Iphone through a contract plan in Singapore? Is there anything I should be aware of? 2)If my phone was jailbreak and I managed to restore to its factory settings, are there still any remnants of the jailbreak software in my phone that could cause the demise of my phone? 3) What exactly happened to my phone? Is it common for Iphones?
    I am travelling down to Philadelphia tomorrow. I hope I can find an Apple Store in the vicinity tomorrow. Very frustrated that my Iphone 4 just broke down on me suddenly. Hope someone could help me out here! Thanks!
    Cheers!!
