Iphone 4s stuck in low battery-boot up-shut down cycle. (not an update or restore issue)

From a dead iphone 4s, to plugging it into a wall or computer usb port will display the stardard charging logo on the screen.  About 6 seconds later, the iphone wants to boot up.  Near the end of the boot, not quite enough power to bring me to the lock screen, which will send it into a dead battery shutdown.  This is a never ending loop while plugged into a wall or computer. 
Just a simple dead iphone, no restore or update was in progress... 

That makes it sound like a very bad battery or logic board issue.  Have you tried taking it to an Apple store genius bar and have the techs take a look?  Checking it out is free, they can tell you if there is a hardware failure and what your options are.

  • No low battery warning and shut down

    My MacBook is no longer showing the "low battery" warning and even with the batery status showing charge suddenly shuts down. If I check manually pressing the button of the bettery flashes 2 or 3 lights.
    I have calibrated the battery several times but i am having problems doing it again because after the shut down there is still charge in the battery.
    I have OS X 10.5.8 and all the software updates done.
    Thanks.
    Dan

    Same Problem is happening to me. I have a Late 2008 13" Aluminum Macbook. If some one knows what to do please post. Thank you

  • No "Low Battery" Warning - Sudden shut down

    Hi everyone.
    It took me sometime to realize this problem, but my MBP reaches the 30% battery level and suddenly shuts down (point blank)..quite disturbing. I've looked around in the forum but there's no precise answer of what to do to solve this. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

    Forgot to paste my computer information. I'm pretty perplexed because it says that my battery condition is still "good". However, it has gone through 358 cycles...does this indicate a need for a batter replacement despite that the condition is still good?

  • IPhone 5 stuck on low battery charging screen A.K.A $500 Paper Weight

    Well this is the third and final iPhone 5 my family has encountered with this issue, Luckily my mom upgraded to a 5S and avoided this issue even though she was experiencing it. Me and my father are not as lucky. Usually jumping power sources and rebooting works. Finally tonight my phone is stuck on it and nothing I can do will bring it off. My phone is totally *mint* and with an otter box defender case looks perfect. Now I would have had it replaced when the battery went to **** after a well known bug they had. However I was not in the warranty window still. Then when my lock/sleep button stopped working that was just icing on the cake. The screen being stuck now is the nail in the coffin. Now I love apple and have had every Generation iPhone since the original. However past 2 years living no where near an apple store has made it unfair and not worth having. The Genius usually take care of you if your not too far outside your warranty and the issue is a known apple defect or issue. However getting a known defect fixed is almost impossible when your not near an apple store. You are stuck paying out of pocket for shipping  and even for "recall" work if it happens to not be a recall issue. Plain and simple most of us can't go a week without a phone so when there's a known issue or manafactures defect you can't get it fixed easily. Now because I missed all the recall fixes and everything I am out over $1200 on two iPhone 5. Now do I spend another $1200 and go through the same **** or do I go with samsung?  I am going to share this with many forums and try to spread awareness. The iPhone 5 i have noticed to have the most problems and every single one a friend or family member has had all share the same issues and problems. They all are in cases and taken care of and experiencing the same issues. Anyone else notice the same problems? I know I am not alone; how are samsung galaxy's phone and warranty compared to apple and iPhone?

    Just sounds like a bad battery.

  • Iphone 3gs stuck in low battery.

    hi
    yesterday my iphone stuck in buttery logo and when i connected to my computer it stuck in apple logo
    please help me i have tried everything in internet

    "I have tried everything on the internet" doesn't tell us anything.  Please be specific so we don't waste time suggesting things you've already done.
    Also, info such as iOS, iTunes and computer OS versions is useful.  Is this phone jailbroken?

  • Ipad 2 stuck in low battery

    My Ipad 2 is stuck in low battery, I was able to get it into DFU mode, restored from itunes but it is still in low battery mode

    I have never seen this answer before but here's what worked for me and I found it accidentally.
    I have an iPhone and an iPad and I only had 1 charger (my only Apple cord didn't work anymore so I had thrown it out and I thought maybe that was the problem, except my iphone charged fine with my pink cord) by my bedside, so I would just hook up the one that needed it the most before I went to bed.  Well one day I woke up to find that my iPad had a low battery, with the red battery picture. When I plugged it into the charger, it just kept recycling to the Apple logo and then the spinning wheel of death, and back again.
    I did some research and couldn't figure it out. People who thought it was a dead battery still had the same problem after they sent it in and got a new battery  My iPad is not jail broken and half the "solutions" were over my head. I have over 1300 apps on my iPad, not to mention thousands of pictures, that I was just feeling so bereft and sad that I might have lost everything.  So I just let my iPad sit, and drained the whole battery down to the nubbin.  It was 2-3 days without a charger that I just let it sit.
    Then I put it on the charger again and I noticed I still got the red battery symbol, but the red was a thinner slice. I went to work and left it on the charger all day. When I returned, one of my FB notifications came on and bam, there it was, my sign on screen or whatever it's called, where you slide the thingy across. And it was back!!!!!!
    So I was overjoyed.  I'd also had a problem syncing with a warning that it overloaded my USB port. It was a separate problem, but I was able to sync it after that, and my iPhone too, so I was ecstatic.
    Then the battery thing happened again about a week later.  I thought I had been diligent about keeping it charged but it went down after only a day off the charger.  Realized that I had FB and mail notifications notifying me in the startup screen, so that it was constantly turning itself on and off.  I have almost 5000 FB friends and 10 email accounts, so that was a lot of steady activity that I wasn't really aware of.  I have now turned off all notifications to every app, since they also come on my phone AND I bought a 2nd cord, a purple one, so now I'm set and don't expect to ever have that problem again.
    Hope this helps everyone who thought they had a brick.

  • IPad 2 stuck on low battery screen

    Hello my ipad 2 is stuck on low battery screen and i have tried everything and nothing works, it does not reset and doesnt even enter in DFU mode.. everytime i reset it, it gives me the red battery screen again. i charged it with a wall charger and USB charger to my laptop and nothing works. HELP please

    Then this might help you, if you hold both home and power button for 10 -15 seconds.
    If that doesn't work:
    plug your device to you mac or pc
    turn off your device
    when it's completly black screen. (You have to have your device plugged in)
    then hold power button for 3 seconds
    without releasing the power button, hold both home and power for 30 seconds.
    then you'll be in DFU mode.
    restore.
    Hope this will work.

  • Sir since update of ios 8.1.2 i got serious battery problem on 3g 4.30 hrs my battery gets low and sometimes serious net probelms please give an update for this issue its not alone me my friends too getting many problem lcommonly battery problem

    its not related to any hardware because last year april i got replacement new phone from apple and i maintained it well...!

    Probably apps running in the background are causing this, sometimes Mail get's stuck connecting to the mail server, or some social media app like Facebook can also be a reason for prolonged background activity.
    Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
    If this does not help, setting it up as new device would be the next step:

    Sounds like a 'stuck' Shift key. You could try to take the key off and put it back on yourself (should be some info on that from ifixit) or just take it to your local Apple Store and have them fix it.

  • Iphone 5c has battery problems and shuts down even after charging, just upgraded to 8.2, no help, what is my next option?

    the iphone 5c still has problems with battery life and shuts down after complete charge.  this happened after 8.1 update, I tried every way to shut things down, still no luck.  what can I do next?

    I did a soft reset, and I went to the discussion and turned every down or off.  This is definitely a hardware problem.

    Hi candybooist,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  This article has steps you can take if your iPhone is unexpectedly powering off:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    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.
    Cheers,
