I PHONE 5 BATTERY ISSUE AND PHONE SHUTS OFF

MY I PHONE 5 SHUTS OFF REPEATLY AND BATTERY PERCENTAGE IS SHOWING DIFFERENT NUMBERS

I'd just like to say that ahs70's post on Dec 1, 2013 at 1:17am on Pg. 9 worked for me as well: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5338609?start=120&tstart=0
If your iPhone's battery is acting up you need to determine if it's a software issue or a hardware/battery issue.  To do that, after syncing your iPhone, erase/hard reset all data and settings from your iPhone to what it was from the factory as new.  This can be found in Settings/General/Reset/Erase All Content and Settings.  Then test it out for a day or two.  If it's still acting up then it's likely a hardware issue and you will need to get your battery replaced.  If your warranty is done than check out this link to get a battery kit to replace your iPhone battery yourself:  http://www.ifixit.com/Store/iPhone/iPhone-5-Replacement-Battery/IF118-001#produc tDescription
If your iPhone is now working properly after hard resetting it than it's most likely a software issue.  This battery issue only started after upgrading to the new iOs7, so it is obviously related to the update not properly installing itself.  What has worked for me and many others is to manually update to iOS 7.0.4 using the full downloaded version of the update which is about 1.32 Gigs.
But first you need to find out what model of iPhone you have, click here to determine if it's GSM or CDMA: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3939?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
Then go here and scroll down to download the iOS 7.0.4 complete update for your device:  http://www.downloadios7.org/download-ios-7-0-4-ipsw-file.html
Then scroll up on the download page and follow the instructions of updating your iPhone manually following the instructions below:  "IPSW with iTunes"
And your done.
Problem solved.
I only posted this because it was a very frustrating problem that no one really seemed to figure out a solution for.
I hope this helps.

  • Low Battery Warning and Screen Shut Off

    A couple of months ago I stopped receiving the Low Battery/Reserve Power/Connect to AC warning. The computer would just shut down then. This is probably explained by my battery being on a 350 cycle count.
    However, a new problem has arisen which I am not sure if it would be connected to the same issue. When running basic software (firefox, excel, etc) the computer works fine, but as soon as I attempt to run something more complex (Google Earth, iPhoto, sometimes iTunes) the screen goes black and becomes unresponsive. This happens whether I'm connected to AC Power or not. When I close the computer, the LED light at the front comes on steadily (not pulsating). I don't think the computer shuts down as the battery seems to continue to run down. The only thing I have been able to do is shut the computer down by holding the power button down.
    I have tried taking out the battery and holding the power button for 10 seconds/tone as well as holding the power button (with the battery in) for 5 seconds/tone.
    While I am fairly sure I'll need to get a new battery, I'm not sure if that will solve the second problem as well. Any thoughts?
    Thanks.

    I'm going out on a limb here....
    First, have you run Disk Utility to fix permissions, etc?
    Secondly, do you only have issues when you run CPU intensive applications? If so, there are two things I can think of off hand. 1 is that maybe your CPU heatsink is coming loose. The other is, I seem to recall reading somewhere that if the CPU is pulling pretty close to 100%, it may pull extra power from the battery... maybe your battery being so low can not supply the needed power? Again.. this is just out in a limb, I don't know this to be fact.

  • K1 youtube issues and wifi shutting off

    Thought I would throw this question out there.
    I was finally (after restoringmy K1) able to get all my updates complete. I have the latest version as of today on the Honeycomb.
    Here is the issue...now my internet is shutting down at random for one thing. I have to go back in each time to settings and turn it back on. There seems to be more touch screen delay or nonrecognition. Finally, I can not watch a youtube video through.
    Here is an example of my youtube issue...
    I watch it in youtube for mobile which I got from the youtube website. The video starts fine, only takes a few seconds to buffer and then plays. It will play for about 2 to 4 minutes into the video and then it jumps to the end,stops the video and you can not rewind,restart or reset it at all. The only option is to refresh but still same thing happens. I tried using youtube yesterday and today with the same results. Here is the other catch. My son has a cheap nextbook that I decided to try the exact options on side by side just to make sure it was not our internet connection. His worked fine all the way through. Mine juped to the end and stopped. I tried a different video today...same thing.
    I have read through other posts. Does anyone have fixes for these issues? Honestly, I have a few more days to actually return this. I just need to make a decision. I am just afraid that I am going to always be rittled with peoblems. However I like the tablet when it is working. I am not really sure how well all tablets work except that I know my son doesn't have the problems that I do. He really has not had a y problems and we bought ours around the same time. I have what seems like a lot of force closes when he rarely has any if at all.
    Thanks for any help and imput you all can offer.

    Well, it is done. I returned the K1 yesterday. I just decided the bugs that I had and the constant frustrations were just not worth it. I think at this time I will just stick with my laptop.

  • Answer to issue w/ ipod shutting off with older docking station

    Since I have gotten a lot of help over the years using forums, it is now my turn to help others with the problem of the ipod 5g showing low battery error and then shutting off. The apple store could not help me, so I took a chance and purchased the scosche home dock adaptor. This fixed my problem for the 5g and I can now listen to my ipod in my hot tub again.

    Additional information: My car battery died, which reset the radio and the integration kit. The integration kit worked perfectly for about three days, then once again the two stopped talking with each other. So it seems that the kit may work at the beginning, but then it peters out.

  • I have the Iphone 5, and it shuts off randomly and the screen glitches. I have taken it into verizon and had it reset but the problem still continues. Is the only way to fix the problem to get a new phone?

    I have the Iphone 5, and it shuts off randomly and the screen glitches. I have taken it into verizon and had it reset but the problem still continues. Is the only way to fix the problem to get a new phone? Also, why is it if I do need a new phone I can only get a refurbished one when I am paying insurance every month?

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
    If the issue persists, take the device to Apple for evaluation.

  • How do I download from icloud to phone?  Had battery issue and bought new one

    How do I download my contacts, apps and all info from iphone to my phone?  I had a battery issue and was told that buying a battery and resetting phone to original state may resolve it.  It seems okay now, but I need to understand how to restore the info that I backed up on last night.  Thanks.

    If you want to restore from and iCloud backup you have to go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content and Settings.  This will erase the phone.  You then go through the activation screens again and when given the option choose Restore from iCloud Backup (see image below).  (Connect your phone to and external charger and wi-fi as this sometimes takes a while to finish.)

    syncing iphone and now phone is stuck and wont power off or do anything

    Reboot the phone:  hold down the power button and the home button at the same time until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "slide to shut down".  When the screen has been completely black for a few minutes, press the power button again.

  • I have 5s and it shuts off and shows the apple sign and the goes back to normal?

    I have 5s and it shuts off and shows the apple sign and the goes back to normal/Help please

    Hello mpd412,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone 5s.  I would be concerned too if my iPhone was unexpectedly powering off.  I found an article with steps you can take when you encounter an issue like this.  I recommend following the steps below:
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    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 can not reboot after upgrading to iOS 6; keeps trying and cannot shut off either.

    My iPhone 4 can not reboot after upgrading to iOS 6; keeps trying and cannot shut off either.

    I FINALLY got it to work on BOTH iPhone 4 and iPpad 3.  Here is what I had to do:
    Had to DELETE all e-mail accounts including icloud.
    Did a hard reset (hold down button on top right corner and round button on bottom center)
    Then once it came back on, the iPhone had ALL of the accounts still on it and it was receivng e-mail.
    The iPad receive e-mail until I did the steps above 5 times.  Plus, I had to add back all of the e-mail accounts vs. on the iPhone 4 they were there when my phone came on.
    Now I am receiving e-mail on both devices normally.
    No clue why this happened, but Apple needs to find a fix ASAP.

    My iphone shuts off randomly and the button is too sensitive. Like I don't even press the lock button and it shuts off. Also when my finger barely rubs over the lock button, it shuts off too. This happened after the 7.1 update. It's on the iphone 5. Someone help me. I just want to fix this. Maybe if it's possible I can disable the lock button.

    The lock button does not turn OFF the iPhone. It will give you a screen with the option to turn OFF the iPhone. Possibly the battery is faulty. Make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple store for free battery diagnostic testing and evaluation.
