I have a virgin moble iphone that i found, the power button doesn't work and the phone is saying disabled,what can i do to fix it?

Probably nothing, the phone has a high likelihood of being stolen and if you try to Restore it you will run into Activation Lock. Turn it in to the local authorities.

    You will have to restore the phone and set up as New. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212. The part you need is near the bottom, "If you have never synced your device with iTunes...". You will lose any content that is not backed up in iCloud.

  • Hi! I bought my iPhone from USA and the power button doesn't work. I have warranty. I will come to UK soon. I wanna learn; can i benefit my warranty in UK?

    Hi! I bought my iPhone from USA and the power button doesn't work. I have warranty. I will come to UK soon. I wanna learn; can i benefit my warranty in UK?

    The warranty is not and has never been International.  Warranty and support are only valid in the country of origin.  The only exception is for devices sold in the EU where the EU is treated as one country for warranty and support purposes.

  • My iPhone 5 is disabled and the power button doesn't work. How would I fix it?

    My iPhone 5 is disabled and the power button doesn't work. How would I fix it? Please Help

    wait it for your iPhone to die then before it turns it plug it into iTunes while holding the home button and it will force it into recovery mode.
    will be hard to get the timing right cause u will need to wait for the battery to die and charge up again. Other then that just take it to apple and have them replace the device for a fee.

  • My iphone turned off and i can't turn it on. I tried to turn it on with plugging into charger but it doesn't help. And the power button doesn't work.

    My iphone turned off and i can't turn it on. I tried to turn it on with plugging into charger but it doesn't help. the problem is that the power button doesn't work.

    Well, that is going to make it difficult, since the first two steps of user troubleshooting require the use of the power button. I suggest you get that fixed.

  • Iphone power button doesn't work and LED is on

    Have a black 64gb iphone 4s, (ios 6.1.3), no case - for about 1yr4mo.  last week i fell asleep on the phone and when i woke up, the power button wasn't working.  I left the phone plugged in for the rest of the night, and when i got up it was working again.  Last night I once again fell asleep on my iphone, and woke up to find both the power button not working AND the LED light is stuck on... its kind of like at maybe 5% brightness.  I put the phone in a bag of rice for the rest of the night, but this morning now, the light is still on and LED still on.  Phone never officially got wet, but I suspect there was enough moisture to potentially cause problems.
    phone is out of warranty and i'm trying to figure out how long i wait until i start poking around at it to see if i can do anything with it...
    anyone have any ideas?

    Hi, bruno7.
    1. Have you tried "Mac OS: Apple Pro Keyboard Shortcuts for Shut Down and Restart"?
    2. What changes did you make to your Mac before this problem arose?
    3. Are you using FruitMenu? If so, check for updates, disable it, or uninstall it.
    4. After you next shut down, run the procedure specified in my "Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption" FAQ. Perform the steps therein in the order specified.
    5. An errant Startup or Login Item maybe the cause. My "Troubleshooting Startup and Login Items" FAQ can help you pin that down if such an item is causing the problem.
    6. If none of the above, when you attempt to select Shut Down or Restart from the Apple menu and nothing happens, immediately check the ends of these Console logs for clues.
    Good luck!

  • IPhone 4 just turned off, power button doesn't work, won't charge

    I was using my phone and it had 30% left, when I went to use it again it was unresponsive, won't turn on. I tried plugging it in and that does not turn it on either. Unfortunately my top power button does not work so I can't reset it and a computer won't recognize it, can anything be done to fix it or at least recover numbers and photos?

    To fix it you need to get the sleep button fixed.
    No way to recover photos or data from a non responsive iphone.

  • I have an nano 6th gen I think?  And the power button doesn't work?  I am very displeased with itunes:(  And there isn't anywhere that services them:(

    I tried to find somewhere that services them but?  That's itunes for you, and the ipod, itself?   I would never recomend ipods for anyone, because there isn't any place for you to get them fixed, I guess that they are just throw away cameras in the same sence, if it doesn't sharge any more, throw it out I guerss?

    What does iTunes have to do with it? And where do you live? Do you have any shops that do repairs on small electronics and/or smartphones?
    You can always go here: http://www.iresq.com
    Or you can do an out-of-warranty replacement with Apple: https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do

  • How much is my iPhone 5 worth if the power button doesn't work?

    It doesn't have any scratches though.

    Try either of these and get an estimate:
    http://www.gazelle.com/
    https://www.apple.com/recycling/
    (I can tell you that gazelle offers me $265.00 for my 32GB iPhone 5, in "flawless" condition and if I get it unlocked by AT&T before I ship it to them).

  • My Iphone  4s turned off erratically after the apps began to crash and internet failed to work. The Power button doesn't work either. I tried to insert the USB but the Iphone isn't even taking charge. What do I do?

  • HT201263 iPhone not recognized by iTunes and my power button doesn't work

    My iPhone just shut down after a call, battery was around 60%, its power button doesn't work and iTunes doesn't recognize it. I can't put it in DFU mode because that's by pressing home and power simultaneously but I don't have a power button. I can't restores via iTunes because it doesn't recognize it. What am I supposed to do?!!

    Same thing happened to me today...when googling found people having same problem with iphone 4 and said to hold power and home buttons to reboot.  It worked! I was in a panic but its like it never happened...everything is as it was before. Even showed a missed call...

  • IPhone 5 power button doesn't work

    My power button doesn't work and I still have the warranty and I wanted to know that if apple replaces my iPhone will I have to renew my contract with Verizon

    Replacing the phone in no way affects your Verizon contract.

  • A pop-up message is frozen on my settings page. I was trying to set up an apple id for iTunes when I got a message "required fields have been left blank. The missing information is highlighted in red." the ok button doesn't work. 1st gen iPad.

    A pop-up message is frozen on my settings page. I was trying to set up an apple id for iTunes when I got a message "required fields have been left blank. The missing information is highlighted in red." the ok button doesn't work. The message is now fixed & I cannot get rid of it. Ironically, when I found this forum I was able to set up an apple Id. Please advise how to get rid of the pop-up box. Thanks!

    I'm having this same problem as well and cannot advance--very irritating. All of the information is filled out correctly and I've editted my AppleID information online separately as well to get around this issue, but no luck...

  • IPhone 4 - power button doesn't work anymore! HELP

    I have a problem with my iPhone 4.. the power button doesn't work anymore... if I press it, it doesn't response (i can't hear the click, when i push it).. how much does it cost for repair it? my warranty is expired...

    So it doesn't do anything at all? The sound clicks are one thing, but if the screen locks, then it works.
    It will be $149 if I am correct from other posters.

    The iPhone warranty is not international and as you purchased in
    Malaysia the warranty is only valid in Malaysia
    You could try taking to an iPhone Authorised service provider
    in India but there have been many similar posts to yours
    and I am not aware  of them assisting  with an iPhone from
    outside India
