Iphone 5 Flashing apple screen on and off.

My phone is just flashing the apple screen on and off when it is plugged in. It won't turn on when it is not plugged in either. This started happening after I updated the software. My charger works on other phones. any suggestions??

To make sure that this is not software related, set it back to factory settings, without using any backup data afterwards. Set up the rest of the personal settings manually and test the phone. If it still does not work, this is a hardware issue and the phone has to be serviced by Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider:

  • My iPhone keeps blinking the apple screen on and off, as though it is turning on, but it goes no further. I've tried the two-button shut down, but nothing is changing. What do I do?

    First try a Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least Ten seconds... (But can take Longer)... until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons
    If no joy... Try a Restore...
    1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
    2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.

  • Flashing Apple Sign, on and off, and on....and off

    Hello,
    I've had my iPod since Christmas, but havn't used it more than twice since then because I havn't been able to stop it from flashing the apple sign on and off, continously. None of the stupid 5-R steps help at all, my iPod doens't respond to any buttons, except for briefly when I try and reset it, it turns off as I hold the buttons, but when I let go, it turns bck on and flashes the apple sign all over again. the screen goes off for a split second, then the apple sign appears dark in the background, lights up, and then turns off. I can hear the disk drive spinning and clicking every time it does this too.
    Windows doesn't recognize that I have the iPod plugged in anymore (it used to), and I can't do ANYTHING with it. It just sits there going on and off until the battery drains.
    I don't know how it happened. Soon after I got it, it asked me if I wanted to update the iPod software, so i clicked yes, and it started to update, so i left it alon to use the washroom, and when I cam back, there was no "download comlete" or "updates succesfully installed" sign on my comuter, just iTunes open, and my iPod flashing on and off, on and off.
    Could somebody PLEASE hel me with this, and maybe e-mail me with any advice you may have? --> [email protected] That would be greatly appreciated. At least reply to this if you know anything,. Thanks,
    Graham

    I think bring your iPhone unit to an Apple Service center near you.

  • HT4061 found old iphone 4. want to use it for wifi. But it wont let me into my iphone. it says activation required and then plug into itunes, then as soon as I plug it into itunes it flashes the apple logo on and off and wont be detected on itunes.

    found olf iphone 4 or 4s in the back of my parents closet. They told me I could now have it back and its been a year since the last time I saw it. It wont turn on unless it is plugged up to a wall plug in. But as soon as I turn it on it says activation required then it says plug into itunes. After I try doing that it plugs into my computer but flashes the apple logo on and off. It wont even turn on all the way when plugged into computer...only the wall. ANY IDEAS?): and no I didnt steal/find this phone. It is mine. I dont have the guts to steal but a lot of people online have accused me.

    You may need to force it into recovery mode. See here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/17766427#17766427

  • My iPhone 5's screen will only blink the apple logo on and off but never fully turn on

    When I plug in my iPhone 5, it will only blink the apple logo on and off but never fully turn on. I tried to reset and that didn't help, any suggestions.

    Hi,
    Try a Reset of the Phone... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the Phone Off...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 10 - 15 Seconds...
    Turn the Phone On...
    If that does not help... See Here:

    How can I get out of the flashing Apple screen on Iphone 3 ?

    Turn it off.  While pressing and holding the Home button, connect it to your computer with iTunes open.  Hopefully you will be able to restore it after that.  If not, it requires service.

  • My iPhone suddenly went off and now it shows the apple sign on and off

    Hello Tormento,
    It sounds like your iPhone keeps restarting by itself. I recommend first resetting the phone with this process and seeing if it boots correctly:
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    From: Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
              http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists, I would next put it into Recovery Mode and restore it with iTunes with the following article:

  • I don't always hear or feel my phone when I'm in my workshop. Is there an app that can ring a bell or flash a light on and off when I receive a call or text?

    There are a number of hardware devices that you may want to look at. Some of them require that the iPhone be placed into a "base station" in order to work. Following is one set of possibilities: http://www.harriscomm.com/index.php/equipment/cell-phones-accessories/cell-phone -accessories/loud-ringers.html
    If you do an internet search for something like "ringer for cell phone in home" you will find a variety of others.

  • My ipod keeps showing the apple logo on and off after i updated it?

    my ipod keeps showing the apple logo on and off after i updated it?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
