IPHONE 4 WITH IOS 5 KEEPS ON RESTARTING ITSELF.

IPHONE 4 WITH IOS 5 KEEPS ON RESTARTING ITSELF. i have done restore several times but the problem still intact and phone does not charge when it is switched on and shows a full battery sign on battery but charges only when it is switched off.
My father purchased it from Kuwait and i am using it in Pakistan where there is no authorised service available from APPLE.
Is there any solution of it?
how could i get it replaced?

Hi.
Not sure how well this would work, but it might be worth trying to put the phone into recovery mode. You will loose everything though, but should be able to restore stuff once it's working again if you have a recent backup.
So,
as per
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
try use a PC/Mac which has never been synced to your phone before, and has latest iTunes installed. Other option would be to create a new user account on your operating system temporarily for this which should hopefully give the same impression. Intention here is to force iTunes to download a fresh version of iOS 5, and to prevent it from trying to resotre your phone using an existing backup.
This talks of pressing the home button only and plugging the USB cable in to force entry to dfu mode, but the method I use is as follows:
firstly plug USB cable into computer with iTunes open
power off by pushing and holding the power button and home button, holding both until the red slider appears, then KEEP holding for another 5 seconds (or so) until the sceen goes black, then release power button, but CONTINUE to hold home button.
iTunes should (after about 10 secs) report that is has detected a phone in recovery mode, and asks you if you wish to restore
say yes, and iTunse should then download a new copy of iOS 5 from apple if it cannot find an existing backup.
this is about 700 meg or so in size, so may take a while depending on your connection.
follow instructions to restore.
good luck, and please let us know if it works
Andy
PS : just in case, home button is the one with the square on it on the front of the phone, and the power button is the one at the top right edge.

  • My iPhone 5s with iOS 7.1 become very hot when charged almost reach 100% and will shut down itself.

    My iPhone 5s with iOS 7.1 become very hot when charged almost reach 100 % and will shut down itself. Then I need to off the power and let it cool down first before I can on the phone back. Please help me to solve this problem. Thanks.

    Hi Limfromsi,
    It is normal to an extent for the iPhone to get warm during charging. If your iPhone is currently in a case, you may want to try charging it without one and see if the issue occurs, as the design of the iPhone uses the exterior of the device as a cooling surface. For more information about iPhones and temperature, you may find the following article helpful:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2101
    If you continue to have issues with your iPhone in the default config (no case, using the included original cable and power adapter), you may want to have your phone evaluated for service. The following page may be of use:

  • Wifi sync not working on iPhone 5s with iOS 8.0.2

    I have an iPhone 5s with iOS 8.0.2, and iTunes 12.0.1.26. Sync via wifi doesn't work (with one partial exception[1]). USB sync works fine, but when the phone isn't physically connected via a USB cable, iTunes doesn't know it exists. On the phone, in Settings/iTunes Wi-Fi Sync, "Sync Now" is disabled and it says "Sync will resume when '[my computer name]' is available". It's got the correct computer name.
    In the online help, I find the following claim:
    When the computer and the iOS device are on the same network, the iOS device will appear in iTunes.
    In my case, the computer and the iOS device are on the same network, and the iOS device does not appear in iTunes. I had a previous iPhone 5S which was able to sync via wifi to the same desktop computer on the same network. That one may have been iOS 7 (I can't check because it tried to learn to swim).
    The checkbox in "Summary" is checked:
    I tried unchecking it, applying, checking again, and applying again. I then restarted both iTunes and the phone.
    [1] Partial Exception: I found an "answer" on here where you turn off three different random features on the iPhone, turn them back on, reboot the iPhone and the computer, and then WiFi sync does actually works -- exactly once. Now it's disabled again. All that fussing around was enormously more hassle than just finding a USB cable; if I wanted to spend half an hour performing 10-second tasks I'd have bought another Motorola product.
    Is there a solution that works permanently, or do we just wait for a fix in a future OS revision?

    On your iPhone 4S go to Settings > Wi-Fi. Click on Wi-Fi to both disable and enable it. If you are still unable to enable this setting it may be possible that the iOS7 update did not take properly.

  • My iPhone six with iOS 8.1.1 will not allow me to upload credit card data to Apple pay

    My iPhone six with iOS 8.1.1 will not allow me to add credit card data to Apple pay. It does not recognize my credit card in iTunes. I have I have set location to the United States, and restarted. Still nothing. When I enter the passbook app, hit the plus button, select set up Apple pay, select add new credit card,I get no response when trying to add credit card number expiration date etc., nor does the camera feature work. Bottom line is to date, I cannot add any credit card data at all.

    I am guessing there is something about your situation that occurred outside the U.S.  Perhaps you purchased your iPhone outside the U.S., or live outside the U.S., ...
    At the moment, Apple Pay only works in the U.S.

  • Why is the forwarding arrow missing from my iPhone 6 with IOS 8.1.2

    Why is the forwarding arrow missing for text messages from my iPhone 6 with IOS 8.1.2

    The speak needs to be enabled through settings
    Though - wondering why you are seeing things differently - any chance you can post a picture of what you are seeing
    The next step would be
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    If that does not work - then we may be looking at a restore

  • How to I get itunes radio on my iphone four with ios 7

    How to I get itunes radio on my iphone four with ios 7

    So I was having the same issue and through guess and check I think I figured out the problem.
    Essentially iTunes Radio is only available in the US, hence your phone needs to know you're within the borders of the USA.
    I went into Settings > Privacy> Location Services > System Services (at bottom of the screen) and started playing around with some location systems I had turned off to preserve battery life. As soon as I turned on the "Setting time zone" function, iTunes Radio became available again.
    It looks like Apple uses that system service to determine location of the phone and thus the availability of iTunes Radio.
    You may have to close out the Radio app and restart (or even restart your phone) to make it work but so far so good for me.
    Good luck!

  • Iphone 4 with latest OS keeps crashing when I open facebook app can someone advise?

    My iphone 4 with latest OS keeps crashing when I open facebook app can someone advise? This is only happeining in the last few days I cannot use facebook on my iphone it crashes and slows down our network/wifi, is this a problem with facebook (latest version downloaded) or OS which is 6.1.3 - anyone any solutions? Thanks

    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    If that doesn't work quit the Facebook app. Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it jiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then delete the Facebook app and download it again.
