HT1430 My iphone died suddenly with a full battery and it won't turn back on.

My iPhone 4 died suddenly with a full battery. I have tried, multiple times, holding the home button and the sleep/wake button at the same time for over 3 minutes. I have even tried doing that with it plugged in, even though it had a full battery when it stopped working. Any suggestions on what to try next?

Go through the restoring steps described here:
iPhone, iPad or iPod touch: Not responding or does not turn on
If that doesn't work, try recovery mode as described a little further down in the same article.

HT1430 my iphone 4 has suddenly ceased to work with a full battery and switch will not display slider. How can I reactivate it?

My iphone 4 has suddenly ceased to operate with a full battery and switch will not display slider. How can I reactivate it? Is the memory gone? Will T Mobile replace the memory or the phone if necessary?

Hello,
If you're in a country where there's an apple shop (unfortunately not mine), go check it and ask the employee about it: he's gonna check your Iphone on a "device"
I've got an iphone 5 and it's working very well with me but I have to admit that its battery lasts (slower) than my Ipad 2.
Still i can help with some tips that may improve your iohone's battery by an hour in addition (hopefully):
- close all apps by multitasking....
- do NOT keep the brightness to the max
Believe me you're gonna regret changing your phone to a samsung
Hope i've helped and sorry for my bad english (has english as 3rd language)

My iPhone 4 suddenly shut of and it won't turn back on

my iPhone 4 suddenly shut of and it won't turn back on. when i try charging it the apple comes up but then it shuts of and a few seconds later the apple will come up again but my phone won't turn on! it hasnt been water damaged and i have tried holding down the menu and lock button for 20 seconds and even more but it wont turn on. Last night it came on for 2 minutes and then shut down randomly and wont turn on again. Any advice?

Make an appointment at the Genius Bar at Apple to have the device checked. Sounds like you may have a hardware problem.

My iphone 4 was acting up so i turned the fully charged phone off and it won't turn back on

my iphone 4 was acting up like th escreen wouldnt respond to my tough or the home button
so i turned the iphone off and the battery was around 95% so i know its not becuase its dead
and it won't turn back on
the screen did she the apple logo like it was about to power on but then it went black and hasent done anything since
i have plugged it in to my ocmputer and the wall charger and have had no luck
any help??

Plug it in to power for at least 15 minutes.
The, try resetting your iPhone by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

My iPhone suddenly turned off by itself and it won't turn back on, what to do?

So I was just texting with my iPhone (with 35% battery life) earlier and when I check my phone again 5 mins later, it completely turned off. So, I tried holding the sleep/lock botton on top + the Home button (for more than 10 sec) and it won't turn on.
So I tried plugging my iPhone to the wall-adapter charger and it turned on (with a 100% battery life?), but seems like all my settings have been resetted and I was advised to connect with iTunes. Then I unplugged my iPhone and plug it onto my computer to sync. I waited, the apple logo comes up and then it turns off again, logo comes up and turns off again (constantly doing that and it's not going anywhere).
Did my whole iPhone battery just died or something? I repeated the process and whenever I unplug the phone from the wall-charger, my phone completely turns off. When I plug it with my usb-to-computer, the apple logo comes up and goes. Any one can help?

Connect iPhone to Wall Charger for 10 minutes, it may turn ON itself. If still nothing, keep on charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until the iPhone begins to respond.

My ipod nano's battery died and now won't turn back on... help? =]

Okay so I was listening to my ipod in the car and it died. I tried to charge it at my friend's house with her iphone charger and it wouldn't turn back on. I plugged it in at home and it still won't start and itunes shows that it's not even plugged in. I tried that shindig where you switch the hold button then press those two buttons but that didn't work either... help?

My 3rd gen nano did the exact same thing to me as well today. I tried doing the reset and nothing happened. I tried calling Apple, but they said it's out of phone warranty, so they couldn't do much. They said they didn't recognize the error I'm getting, so they recommended taking it into a store. When I attach it to my computer, I don't get any response from the ipod, but my computer says that there is new hardware that says "Apple Recovery (DFU) Driver." iTunes tries to read the ipod but says it has an unknown error (-185). I am extremely frustrated. Anyone have suggestions as to what is going on?

I downloaded iOS8 on my iPod 5th generation the other day and its been completely fine and now all of a sudden my iPod has turned off and it won't turn back on, i have tried charging it but nothing is coming up, what should i do?

the other day when iOS8 came out i downloaded it onto my 5th generation iPod, it has been working perfectly fine since, now today when i left it for a couple of hours, it turned itself off and now it won't turn back on. i have tried charging it but nothing is happening. it's not out of charge because the little battery usually comes up when its charging, but the screen is completely black and nothing is happening. i have tried turning it on by both buttons and it won't work. i don't know whats wrong with it. i haven't topped it or anything, so I'm assuming its the new download as it seems to be effecting other peoples devices as well. what should i do?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Does your phone switch off suddenly with a full battery?

My iPhone 5 suddenly just switches off although it can be 45% charged.
The only oddity about my set up is that I have a Mophie Helium with it and I don't know if they have some problem together.
Does anyone have a similar problem?

Mine just did the same thing EEEK when i checked it at 2am So i plug it into charger and nothing and then into a lappy and nothing FREEEK!so i Google the issue(God bless you Google) home and power brings up my apple and then it froze and conflicted for for a few moments it seemed and then booted fully? It was fully charged and was last used a few hours ago to copy some pics over and then i just unplugged it and thought nothing more,,,i use cydia winterboard for some apps and its been faultless for months now on my iphone 4/5.1.1 Hmmm? Ps i have had a broken screen for several months now 100bux:(but still works fine...

My iPhone died while charging and it won't turn back on

My iPhone 4 died while in the middle of charging. I had it charging on my speakers and when i left it, it was on 30% and charging. I came back an hour later and the screen was black and it would not turn on. I've tried holding the power and home button and tried plugging it into the wall to charge it instead of the speakers. If it matters, I recently updated it to iOS6.

I am having the same issue. I am currently in the process of trying to downgrade back to iOS5 until they can fix the issues. There seem to be a multitude of issues with this latest upgrade. I did find out earlier that unplugging your phone and holding the top button and home button at the same timne works BUT it must be unplugged AND you have to hold it a long time (almost 2 minutes for mine) and sometimes it takes multiple times for it to catch. I was almost in tears and it finally worked.
I am restoring the phone to the oldest iCloud restoration date allowed (unfortunately only 2 days ago) but hopefully that was before I upgraded. I don't remember when I did it . Hopefully this works.

My phone battery can only last an hour. Problem started a week ago while I was in Argentina. I am back in the country now, this morning I left the house with a full battery and when I got to work the phone had shut down. Phone is 7 months old. Why?

Dear Apple Family,
I have been using an iPhone since I lost interest with Nokia phones. I fell in love with Apple's innovation, design and technology. However, I am beginning to lose interest wth the product as well.
I have an iPhone 5, my phone's battery can only last an hour and the phone is 7 month old. The problem started last week while I was in Argentina. I had a bad holiday due to this, as I could not make use of the technology because my phone was off most of the time and I had nowehere to charge except to go back to the hotel. I could not even share pictures on Instagram. Has anyone ever experienced such a problem? If so, why and how was the problem fixed? I am starting to engage in a debate that I have been trying to avoid with my friends. They say that Samsung is striving and I now tend to agree, and if the problem persists I will gladly join the Samsung family. They seem to make reliable phones. Sadly, I never experienced this problem with iPhone 3GS & iPhone 4S.
With Gratitude,
Thapelo

I have an iphone 3gs and it has suddenly switched off and it won't charge or switch back on HELP!!!!!!!!

Do a reset hold down the home/power button together until you see the apple sign and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up. If that doesn't work - do the steps while your phone is plug into your PC.

My iPhone 5 just randomly shut off and it won't turn back on. What do I do?

I pulled my phone out of my pocket to check something and i hit my home button to open my phone and it wouldnt turn on. I tried the lock button and that didnt ework either. I thought my phone may have died so i tried to turn it back on and that didnt work. It had about a 40% battery and this has not occured any in the past. Please help!!!

Connect iPhone to Wall Charger for 10 minutes, it may turn ON itself. If still nothing, keep on charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until the iPhone begins to respond.

My iphone can't be recognized by itunes and it won't turn on fully..

My girlfriend bought an iphone today on craigslist..the man who bought it said that it was jailbroke but he didn't use it very much. The program was cydia. We went the the att store to get some accessories and the techician did a restore on the phone. Now it won't turn on, it is stuck on the apple icon loading screen, which is a snowflake now, and it isn't being recognized by itunes! What should I do?

Unfortunately for you, jailbroken phones void Apple's warranty. In addition, you forfeit your right to any support from Apple including from this forum. Terms of Use of this forum prohibit the discussion of jailbroken phones.
This is why it is never advisable to purchase a phone from anyone other than an authorized reseller.
You will need to search the internet for a solution to your problem. Keep in mind that most jailbroken phones will never again work properly, if at all.
