I dropped my phone and it won't turn on or charge, what should I do?

Can someone please help me fix this problem?

Even if the iPhone was out of the warranty period, Apple would have replaced it at a reduced price as an out-of-warranty accidental damage issue. Now that you have opened it up, Apple will not touch it. If you take it to an Apple store genius bar or Authorized Service Provider, all they will do is offer to sell you a new iPhone at full price.
Even if it is out of warranty, opening an iDevice stops all further help and support you might have gotten.

I have always been able to sync my IE bookmarks from my desktop to Safari on my iPhone. Suddenly they are gone from my phone and they won't sync any longer. What am I doing wrong?

I have done this on numerous occasions but I think that my Iphone has a defect. After many tries, reinstalls, deletion of content, changing content to be stored on external hard drive, deleting itunes and cleaning computer I managed to get all of the songs on and things seemed okay for a while.
The problem returned about a week ago after downloading a new album from Itunes. I now have 12.5k of songs leaving 10gb spare on Iphone which should be more than enough room to operate properly. Last night it seemed to be dowloading ok (after doing all of the above again for the umpteenth time) this morning it revealed that it had just synched 2.5k of songs and 18gb of "other" on the contents bar. it wont synch now as it says its over capacity. So the 18gb of "other" would probably be corrupted data that means it must corrupt each song as it tries to synch it.
The 2.5k of songs it did synch are working on the Iphone as is every song in the library on Itunes. I did completely delete the new album I bought and redownloaded it from the store then tried to synch just that album and it worked fine.
Just about time to dump apple I think!

It could have powered off. Try holding the sleep button down for a few seconds until the apple logo appears to restart it

sometimes if the battery drains completely you will need to leave it plugged into a charger for 10-15 minutes before you get any activity at all. this is normal

I have an ipad mini that won't power on. It was turned off to charge overnight. In the morning it was warm and now won't turn on no matter what I do. I've tried resetting using the power / home button combination and nothing works.

If you have owned the device, as in purchased from Apple, less than a year then there will be no charge to repair, or most likely, replace the device. If you have had the device more than a year you will be charged an out of warranty cost for replacement ($219 I think) and that is much cheaper than a new device. If you have Applecare+ then you have an additional year of coverage and the replacement will be $49 or $79 depending on when you got the Applecare.

Check your cable whether it is good. If it is use the wall plug to charge at least half an hour. See how it goes.

Gently dropped iPhone 4 and now won't turn on only if plugged in to wall

I dropped my iPhone 4 and now it won't turn on. Only when plugged into electric socket does it actually try to come on. I get to the point of putting in pass code and then it goes to it telling mr to plug into iTunes but when I unplug phone it goes blank again. Any suggestions?

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.

Iphone4 turned off out of the blue.. and now it wont turn back on.. what should i do???

I recently got my iphone and its been working fine.. till today.. i was checking my mail and the phone went black. its been like that for the past hour and it doesnt seem to trun on.
please help!!

Assuming the battery didn't die, try a reset 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.

Dropped iPhone 4s and now won't turn on unless plugged into wall

Hi there,
So I dropped my iphone 4s onto a hard floor 2 days ago, it was at 95% battery at that point. It now will only turn on when I plug it into the wall, and as soon as I unplug it, the phone turns off immediately.
When it is plugged into the wall it shows 100% battery and the signal (both wireless and carrier) are very touchy and it says 'searching...' a lot of the time.
I have had the phone for 19 months now and am out of warranty. It is also worth noting that 1 month ago I replaced the battery myself because I was having battery issues and it has been working perfectly since then up until this incident.
If anyone has any idea of how to fix this or any idea of what the problem may be it would be much appreciated. I have tried holding the home screen and top button simultaneously and also tried plugging into my laptop to restore but the laptop will not start the phone up, it just goes into a cycle of going to apple logo screen and then shutting off.
Thanks very much.

The drop either jarred loose the battery connection or cracked the main circuit board. As you have repaired it yourself Apple won't touch it, so you might as well take it apart and see what has happened.

My phone is stuck on the apple logo, after I tried to restore it. The restoration failed and I can't turn it OFF. What should I do?

Phone is stuck on apple screen after recovery.
Will not turn off.
