HT201263 iPhone 4 Rebooting itself

My iPhone keeps rebooting itself when I'm using it - when charging and when used normally. I have checked, and there is no water damaged. I have also restored it twice.
Does anybody have any ideas on what I can do next please?
Thanks

Restore the phone, if restarts continue after that, go to apple store for repair

Iphone reboots itself

I got a new iphone couple of weeks back. It is keep reboot by itself; restored couple of times without any luck. It also reboots when connected to laptop for charging. help please...

I got a replacement about 2 months ago (first one had dust in it) and the replacement has rebooted itself 2 times (that I have noticed). I will be returning to see apple again here in a bit -- you should probably do the same.

IPhone 3Gs rebooting itself now stuck on boot

Hello,
I've had my iPhone 3Gs since February 2010 making it as of this post 1 year old and 3 months over warrantee. Last week my iPhone started randomly turning off and on again and it was happening a few times each day. It began to reboot itself more frequently, to the point where I couldn't use the phone because it would turn off mid text-message and during phone calls. I grew frustrated and decided to put it into recovery mode to restore the phone, as people on these discussion threads recommended with no luck, it was giving me an error code 29 right when it got to the part to upgrade the firmware (I believe it didn't make it to this point because the phone would turn off). I tried this several times when finally it worked! I restored my iPhone and loaded the backup I had made and charged the phone up and went about my day. As the battery drained it turned on and off more frequently and then went from 30% to 3%. It now will not charge whatsoever on the charger, or through my MacBookPro. It will not boot up at all, but flashes the apple logo then turns black and it keeps doing this over and over. Itunes won't even recognize the iPhone as being connected to my computer.
I don't know what to do. I have never jailbroken this iPhone or tampered with it in any way, and I'm very disappointed that this product is showing such huge issues after only a year of use. Right now my iPhone is completely unusable and I'm hoping that somebody has an answer for me to fix this.

On My iPhone 3GS started with iOS 4.3 and 5.0 did not improve even with the 5.0.1. When started, the device shut down at around 43% battery. Every 2 or 3 weeks the problem got worse ... 53%, 65%, 75%, 86%, 96%, 98% and 100% now it can be turned off.
I realized that if I use the internet through the 3G off at around 98%. If you use the internet through wi-fi, off at around 86%. If you use 3D games off even faster. The first shutdown can be restored by resetting the system (home + power). But after the second or third, it asks to connect to an electrical outlet, the battery even when it was full. If you make a small charge, enough to start the system will turn off at the next mark (percentages cited above). I started using the iPhone always connected to an electrical outlet (house or car).
Recently I made a painful test: I turned off the 3G, wifi and data transmission; stopped to use all the features of the iPhone, except for calls and SMS. The GPS was on, but I did not use any application that needed it. As a result, the battery lasted about 4 days and declined up to 6% (when it fell during a call). I was very glad to review the battery alerts (20% and 10%) after so many months. Then I waited 1 or 2 hours and recharged the phone to 100%. I noticed that charging was much slower than what was occurring before (and remains so since then). But until now I did not notice a difference in the problem.
Other users with the same problem say revert to factory settings did not fix the problem. There are no Apple Stores in my country, only representatives and mobile phone carriers, but the assurance of my iPhone expired in May 2011, in addition, here we have the iPhone 4S world's most expensive (between US$ 1419 and US $ 1,855), the which means buying another iPhone is a last option. Buy another battery would be easier, but I question: if the problem is the battery, why work properly when does not was required 3G, Internet, games or gps?
It would be nice if Apple responded something like "we are aware of the problem and are working on it." At least we could hope to keep until the next update.

IPad reboots itself and thinks it needs to be restored as an iPhone

Help! My iPad keeps rebooting itself every few minutes (if I am trying to use it). It tells me that the iPhone can't make or receive calls(?)and that I need to restore from iTunes at www.apple.com/support. Obviously the iPad can't make or receive calls anyway.
The problem started with the wifi not working in my office building. Now I can't even get it to stay up without rebooting itself every 2 - 3 minutes. And it is continually searching for a signal, even though my iPhone has full signal. Anyone else getting this message?

I would connect it to your syncing computer and restore from backup.

IPhone 3g non stop rebooting itself. Please help!

Why does my iphone 4 keep rebooting itself uncontrollably

i left my iphone 4 in my car in sub zero temperatures for a few hours while skiing and when i came back it started acting all weird and refused to turn on. so thinking it was just cold and needed some time to reheat itself, i wernt home and plugged it in and let it warm itself back up for the night. i went and checked on it later on in that same day and i would work, but the processing seemed unusually slow. for example the screen and menu button would delay bigtime. thinking it was still a little cold i decided to reet it and then from there it progessively got worse to the point where neither the screen or menu button would work. i have tried plugging it into my computer, itunes will read that my iphone is there but it just keeps turning itself on until it reaches the lock screen, then it will reboot itself and continue this process. some help please!!!

Clear the App from background memory, and then try it again.
Do not use the faulty App.
If this happens with all Apps, Restore iphone firmware with iTunes, when asked at end set up as New.
If still problems could be faulty battery, which will be covered by Warranty.

If restoring the iPhone as a new device (not using a backup) doesn't fix the problem, then you either have a problem caused by whatever software you used to jailbrake the iPhone, in which case we cannot help you with that problem here, or the iPhone has a hardware problem in which case you'll have to ship it back to a friend or relative in the US to get it serviced.

IPhone 4 keeps rebooting itself every 1-2 minutes.

Hi!
Yesterday I got my white iphone 4 parts that I changed out of my black parts through a guide on youtube. Everything went well and put in place, I turn it on and everything worked. Five minutes later my cellphone rebooted itself and I did not think it was anything to worry about. After that it just kept rebooting every minute. I thought it was wrong on the white parts, so I switched back to the black parts again but it continues even now. It works 5min until it gets "No Service" then the screen goes off and the phone reboots. There is also something odd about the battery meter, sometimes it can be 0% and sometimes 100% when it started again.
I have tried everything. Took everything out and put it back in again, done a clean restore from itunes, etc.. Do not know what more I can do.
Anyone know what to do or what the problem is?
Thanks!

Seems like you are out of luck here. Your warranty is voided considering that you changed the black parts to the white parts. You even tried restoring, which that did not help. Even if you go to the Apple store, it is very unlikely that they will replace it, just because white models are not out and they can check what the actual color of the phone was through the serial number and the model number.

Iphone 3g keeps rebooting itself - Help!

Since yesterday my iphone 3g has been going very slow. Today it decided just to give up on me completely. Wouldn't let me into any of my apps etc. So connected to my laptop, but gave me two error messages the first one being a number saying it was an error. The second one said that the iphone wouldn't let it connect.
It has now decided to just keep rebooting itself, taking about 5 minutes to load up & then flicks to home screen then reboots again. Tried holding in the off button & home at same time to over write the restart. Nothing.
Any suggestions would be grateful? Phone is just 2 years old!
Thanks x

Restore it from you backup. Use Recover or DFU mode if iTunes won't recognize it.

IPhone 3g keeps rebooting itself

yesterday all of a sudden every time i checked my phone i had no signal bars. i figured it was the area i was in. once i left it continued to have no service. i turned it off then back on and since then it keeps rebooting itself. i connected it to itunes to try to restore it and it restores but does not sync. it reboots midway through the process. can anyone help me out?

Well the post says the question is answered - but a quick search on Google for "iphone keeps rebooting" reveals many thousands of people with this problem... including me yesterday!
I seem to have gotten mine fixed... Somehow I managed to get the phone to reboot in recovery mode. This stopped it rebooting, as long as I didn't press the round button. After that, without starting it or pressing ANY buttons I plugged it into my laptop and selected restore. This restores the firmware, but when I tried to then re-sync the songs, it crashed again. I thought it was all over. However... the second time I did indeed manage to re-sync everything - and so far to day, everything seems reasonably stable. Mind you. I have to "reactivate" my phone connection with O2 in the process though... very odd and frankly Apple should be a bit more open about this clearly known issue and tell us what to do... either play around or get straight to a store.

My iphone 4S 64gb factory unlocked keep freezing when running especially the music and photo app; and it keep rebooting itself after every total battery drain; i'm on ios 5.1

i upgraded to the ios 5.1; and i realized that each time i have a comple battery drain and the phone goes off; when i connect the iphone to charge; it keeps rebooting itself. And the phone freezes when in the middle of applications; i have to stop the app and start it several times before it works; i have an iphone 4S 64gb factory unlocked

At first drain the battery till the iPhone gets off for many times isnt really a good thing read this:
http://www.apple.com/batteries/
after that I think the only way that will help you is restore the iPhone and the bad news are that you should do it without restore a backup after cause you're problem could be saved in the backup of the phone too so you must manually reinstall apps, preferences etc etc

IPhone 5 reboots itself frequently

Hi,
I have a iPhone5 from Singapore retailer, 16G black. I upgraded to 6.0.2 right after I got it. The device would self-reboot every 20 mins to 1 hour when I am using it. At night when I am charging it, it also occassionally reboots itself. Also the battery life is short, averaging 6-7 hours from full to < 20%. I tried to reset, restore, took to the Shanghai Apple Store, but they couldn't figure it out. Anyone has any ideas?
