HT201394 Why does my iPhone 5s keep restarting? Updating to iOS 8.0.2 mans it worse.

My iPhone 5s keeps restarting. Web pages keep resetting, apps crash and restart or freeze. iOS 8.0.1 has not made a scrap of difference. Have tried switching it iphone on and off. Rebooting, restarting. Turning off background apps from runming. Clearing internet history. None of this works. What's the point of having a smart phone that's a pain in the a...

Hello EustaceRM,
Force closing all open apps and resetting your iPhone may help prevent the various app issues you've been experiencing.

If your apps continue closing unexpectedly, the next step would be to restore the device.

Additionally, the troubleshooting steps detailed below can help stabilize your iPhone, should it continue restarting or powering off unexpectedly.
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 LCIsand 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.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
Contact Apple Support.

    My iPhone 4 keeps turning on and off, I bought it two days ago second hand and the back of the phone was cracked, this I have had replaced and the store owner updated the phone but it still keeps doing the same thing, Any ideas ???

  • Why does my iPhone 3GS keep restarting on its own, and when I move the phone while its restarting, a white screen comes up and then it takes a while to turn it back on!

    So i have an iPhone 3GS and when i move the phone while its restarting, a white screen shows up, and sometimes i need to punch it to turn it on. HELP i dealt with this problem for months and im sick of it! HELP ME!!!!

    Sounds like hardware failure, called boot loop. Call Apple and or go on apple.com and make Genius Bar appointment to have your iphone reviewed by a Tech. Provided you iphone shows no physical or liquid damage they will take care of you, or if you have Apple Care Plus

  • Why does my iphone 5 keep restarting

    i have a iphone 5 less than a month old, I downloaded the 6.01 upgrade about 10-14 days ago, now my phone repeatedly shuts down on its own, and when plugged in acts like it isnt charging. when I remove the charger, it says i am at whatever % battery was left when I started charging it, Ihave to physically reboot it, then the charge status is updated.
    I can deal with the charging issue, but this whole shutting down every 3-5 minutes is driving me CRAZY. took phone back to verizon, and their answer was its the new software upgrade and I have to wait for a new upgrade.  What?? Seriously?  this thing is about to go thru the window and replaced by a droid.
    PLEASE HELP!!!!

    Do a backup and restore, be sure to transfer purchases: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (follow iTunes directions)
    If that doesn't work, backup and restore as new.

  • Why does my iPhone 4 keep loosing it's ability to download emails or connect to the Internet?  I can power it off at when I restart I can send and receive but after awhile all I get is it trying to connect.

    Why does my iPhone 4 keep loosing it's connection to download emails or go onto safari?  If I power down the phone and restart it then it will connect but shortly after it will loose the connection and then just shows connecting in email or in safari unable to connect to the Internet 

    I'm guessing it's more likely a problem with your carrier's 3G network in the area. You shouldn't have to modify any settings for 3G to work consistently on a supported carrier.
    You can try turning off 3G data, with will switch over to Edge if it exists. If it does, it will be much slower than 3G, but I suppose faster than 0 is better than 0.
    I'd contact your carrier about it.

  • Why does my iPhone camera keep telling me "Cannot take photo" there is not enough available storage to take a photo, etc? I have it hooked up to ICloud and the cameral roll???

    Why does my iPhone camera keep telling me "cannot take photo" there's not enough storage, but I have my phone/camera roll hooked up to Icloud and have purchased additional storage???

    iCloud storage has nothing to do with remaining memory on the phone - only memory for backups and Photostream.  The photo has to first be stored on the phone and copies sent to iCloud.  If there is not enough available memory on the phone, the photo can't be taken.
    To determine the remaining memory on the phone:
    Settings > General > Usage > Storage
    The Camera Roll is meant for temporary storage of photos, which should be imported to an app on your computer and deleted from Camera Roll.  You can then sync back those photos which you want to keep on the phone.

  • Why does my iPhone 4 keep sending emails instead of texts via iMessage?

    Why does my iPhone 4 keep sending emails instead of texts via iMessage?

    This was driving me crazy but I've cracked it!!
    Go to: Settings, Messages, Send & Receive.  My mobile number was greyed out and wouldn't allow me to select it.  My email address was highlighted but it also allowed me to "Add An Email".  I selected my current email address and it gave me the option to delete it.  Once I deleted my email address, it automatically reverted to my mobile number!!
    Hip hip hooray.  I can relax at last.

  • Why does my iphone 4 keep dropping wifi connection since ios5.0.1update

    Why does my iphone 4 keep dropping wifi connection since ios5.0.1 update, it worked perfectly before, my wifes 3gs connects fine and stays connected while my £400 paperweight losses connection, thinking of going back to nokia! Sort it out apple!

    If the "oh so Great Apple" were to monitor these forums then they might see all the problems
    that the people who have paid good money for their devices are having, i suppose they can do no wrong
    In your eyes, i just thought that if you pay a lot of money for a product that works fine, and you update
    It with a firmware update that they kept going on about how good it was and it can do this and it can
    Do that, then i think they should sort it out. I don't care if i "don't deserve to be an apple owner" or not,
    The fact is i paid my money and it should do what its suppose to do, i moved from Nokia to Apple because
    The N97 was crap and i put up with it for too long, and they didn't do anything to fix the bugs they just stopped
    Selling it and basically said tough s**t, so now this is happened i hoped Apple whould be better but they seem
    To be just like the rest.

    Sign out of your Apple ID then back in again with changes

  • Why does my iphone 4 keep cutting out in conversation after 2-3 minutes

    why does my iphone 4 cut out when calling someone after 2-3 miutes

    Sounds like something got corrupted during your upgrade.
    I would restore from a last known good backup if I were you.
    If that doesn't work I would set the phone up as new and re-install all of your apps and re-sync your music again.

  • Why does my iphone need wifi to update

    Why does my iphone need wifi to download and install new software update!?
    While other iphones can do that with their cellular internet

    This is your phone's operating temp range:
    Operating ambient temperature: 32° to 95° F (0° to 35° C)
    You exceed that range & you'll get that warning...you do nothing, & your phone will shut down to prevent damage. Easy to exceed that range while your phone is navigating & exposed to sun or another heat source.
    It is what it is.

  • HT201401 Why does my iPhone 3G keep turning off by itself even when it's not dead?

    My dad had his iPhone 3G and gave it to me when he had an upgrade. He never had the issue of it turning off by itself, but when he gave it to me, all of a sudden it decided to turn off by itself even when it was on like 80% still.
    I took it in to the Apple Store near me and they said that I had too much "stuff" on it, mostly music.
    So, I completely redid my phone. I reset it completely so that it looked like a completely new iPhone. And then downloaded only 12 apps and 195 songs. And, only about 50 pictures. (This is an 8 gig by the way)
    Right now, there's less than 4 gigs on there so far meaning I still have more than half of my phone to fill. They guy at the store said it needs 2 gigs to run.
    SO, it should have started working since theres way less stuff on there now, and more than enough space to run. Why does it keep turning off still though?
    It's so annoying and inconvenient. If anyone could help it would be SO appreciated.
    THANKS!!

    Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as a new device.  Go through each step in succession until your issue is resolved.

  • Why does my iPhone 4 keep saying no sim card

    my iphone 4 keeps randomly saying no sim card and i havent dropped it and its in a otter box but its getting really annoying. restarting the phone sometimes works, and taking the sim card out and putting it back in works but im tired of doing that all the time. how can i fix this?

    You might want to get a new SIM from your carrier. If you frequently remove/replace it, the contacts may be worn.
