HT5538 Hubby's phone has switched itself off and won't switch back on. It has been charged but nothing works.

Hubby's phone has switched itself off and won't switch back on. As far as we know it's fully charged, can't check as got a blank screen but does buzz when charger is plugged in. Has been left on charge for quite some time. As you will gather, I am sending this on his behalf.

A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.
No content is affected by this procedure.

Hey Jswalker1969,
Thanks for the question. If your iPhone is not powering on, see the following troubleshooting steps:
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
1. 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.
2. Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion.
Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
3. Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
4. 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.
5. 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.
6. 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.
7. 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.

If you hold the home button and power button for about 10 seconds it will turn back on. I have had his issue 3 times but don't know what fixes it for good

Hi there my iPhone 4 has started to turn itself off and won't turn back on until it's charging

As the title states.
Suddenly my I phone 4 has decided it just wants to turn off and only comes back on occasionally. It is fully charged but says its empty, but not all the time. When it's plugged in its ok.
Please help as I have no contact to anyone.
Thanks

You can either have Apple do it at the store, or you can find a repair shop local to you that does it.   If your phone is out of warranty, you'll save money going the local route.
Call up and ask for prices.   I have no idea where you live or what country you're in.
on the iPhone 4, it is VERY easy to change the battery if you have any mechanical skills.   Takes about 10 minutes.   Videos on youtube.

Hello untech,
I see that it has been awhile since you have posted with us on the HP Forums. Please let me take a moment to say "Welcome Back".
I see that you are having an issue with the printer shutting it self off and not powering back on.
By chance do you have the printer power cable connected to a power bar/strip? If so, please try connecting the printers power cable directly to a wall outlet. Here is a document that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
The printer in the document is a LaserJet printer but this document is meant for HP products in general and only uses the LaserJet as an example.
I am also going to include a document for when The HP Printer Won't Turn On or Respond When the Power Button is Pressed.
If by chance the issue is not resolved after doing the steps outlined, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
Please feel free to write me back if you have any other questions.
I hope you have a great Monday.

Thanks for your help. I tried plugging it in but nothing happened, I actually still had battery power left. I was able to solve my problem by holding down the power and home buttons, which reset the phone and got it started again.
Thanks for trying

My iPhone4s turned itself off and will not turn back on unless it is charge data all times. I need help and answers please.

My iPhone4s turned itself off and will not turn back on unless it is charged at all times. I need help and answers please.

And we would need more info. "will not turn back on unless it is charged at all times." is pretty obvious: the phone will obviously not turn on unless it is charged.
Describe your problem clearly.

HT1688 We bought the new iphone 5s when they came out from at&t and my dad has completely shut off and won't do anything? It has not been in ANY water or anything else that could have caused this

Try to reset the device:
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

My iPhone 5s has just shut off and won't turn back on. Please help?

I was just chatting on a app and the phone just froze, went to a white screen with the apple trade mark. Then it completely shut off and wouldn't turn back on. I tried charging it and it still won't turn back on.

Thanks for the advice but I've tried this it hasn't worked. I've held down both buttons together for more than a minute. Do I have to hold them down longer than this?

My iphone has suddenly turned off and won't turn back on

This is a replacement phone as mine broke after updating I've only had it 3 months and now it's suddenly gone off and won't turn on I've tried the reset but it's totally blank if I return to the shop will I be made to pay again for a replacement??

You say your tried a reset, holding the sleep/wake and home buttons until you see the Apple logo? How long did you hold the buttons, it could take up to 30 seconds of holding for it to work. If this doesn't do it, then plug the device into the charger for a minimum of 30 minutes, then try the reset again. If you still cannot reset the device, make an appointment for the Genius Bar. Paying for a replacement depends on the warranty status of that device.
If your other device was under warranty, the replacement would have a warranty of 90 days or the balance of the original phone warranty, whichever is the longest.
