HT4623 My apps and my phone freeze up and go back to the locked screen what can I do?

My apps and my phone freeze up during use and go back to the locked screen. What can I do?

Hi theora,
If you haven't already done so, does restarting or resetting the iPhone help the issue?

If not, we may want to restore your iPhone using a computer with iTunes.

    OK, just remembered that someone had posted a solution for this "login loop" issue.
    If you follow the directions here and be sure to enter all of this EXACTLY as it appears here, you may be able to solve this problem.
    You will first need to boot into single user mode, which will bring you to a scary looking text only screen. Don't be frightened.
    To do this, startup holding the Cmd-S keys together. At the entry which shows root# enter the following exactly. Write it down now, since you won't be able to copy/paste. Pay attention to case and spaces. Everything is lower case. The only spaces are between /sbin/mount and -uw, between -uw and / and between rm and /var/audit/current
    Type in
    /sbin/mount -uw /
    Hit return and then at the next root# prompt, type in
    rm /var/audit/current
    Then hit return and at the next root# prompt type in "reboot" no quotes. Don't type in anything new until you get the root# prompt after entering each command.
    If after entering rm /var/audit/current, you get a message back saying "no such file," then just type in "reboot" at the prompt.

    Try resetting your phone: hold the on/off and home buttons until you see the Apple logo (ignore the off slider that appears first), then release.

    I am very happy to report that my server connection tech, which I called via landline, informed me to : 1. Open Tools 2. Scan down to Clear Recent History 3. Delete All. That was it! Unbelievable! Six hours of searching through the Windows catagories. I checked the results on an internet site, and viola! It was gone! Mozilla Firefox seems to remember the usernames and passwords irregardless of the option window that asks if you if want it to remember the user and password. I finally got in touch with my friend and he said he did not answer yes to the window, even though he was aware of it. No damage. I surely do appreciate everyones' concern in this, now what seems to be, a very simple solution. Cudos to Firefox! Thank-you! P.S. I now have to enter my information at the beginning of any password protected sites...no harm done! My friend is now condemned to the 'user account' site! lol...

    Make sure the Mute switch isn't enabled.   If you see orange, it's in silent mode.

  • My Phone is getting stuck in App mode and I have to reboot to get back to the regular screen? What ever app I'm in works but I cant exit?

    My Iphone 4 is getting stuck in what ever App or screen I have open. I have to reboot to get back to the normal screen. I have done a reset with no change. Any advice?

    I'm assuming your iPhone is not jailbroken?
    You likely have an app that's misbehaving.  Try restoring as new and see how it runs factory fresh.
    Also, maybe your Home button is not functioning correctly.  This has been a widely reported problem.  Try cleaning under it with a vacuum or compressed air.
    Note that you have a 1 year warranty - you may need to use it.

  • I have a iphone4 and I cannot go on my messages or my settings otherwise it crashes or sends me back to the home screen, what do I do?

    I am having a big problem with my iphone as it is only allowing me to go on certain apps, I cannot get onto my settings or messages because if I do it crashes or sends me back to the home screen, I've had this problem for a while and have tried almost everything, can anyone help me please?.

    Quit Safari and reset the iPad.
    Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • My email has frozen on iPhone 4s and will not load just kicks me back to the home screen, any ideas?

    my email froze yesterday now every time i open the app it gives me a blank screen and then after a fe secs kick me out back to the home screen. i have tried restarting, turning on and off, restoring, deleting account and adding it back on and changing my password but nothing has work, any ideas?

    While shut down and restart probably doesn't work, see if you can remember the last email that you were reading.  If it had a moticon or large attachment, try going your desktop and moving that email to a deleted folder.  Then go back to your email on your iphone it should be working.   That worked for me.  I then went back to my desktop and moved the email in question back into my inbox.

  • When using my phone it sometimes will go back to the home screen

    When I'm using my phone it will go back to the home screen !! Annoying help

    Your first post was that when trying to take a photo or going online it would go back to the display screen.
    I would first go to settings to general to reset all settings. If this does not resolve the issue you will then want to back up all data and then restore device back to default settings. Obviously a software issue.
