IPhone 5 only flashes the apple logo on and off.

My iPhone 5 will not come on. When I plug it in, the apple logo only flashes on and off. I have read some comments on this problem, but none of the solutions help me. I have put the phone in recovery mode, but it won't restore or update. I have the read the "error codes" that iTunes gives me, but they don't help either. Any help, please?

nevermind i just realized that its because the battery is flat dead.

  • 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:

    You should really read the manual.
    "How do you restore from backup? "
    Restore.  When given the choice, choose to use backup.
    "And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
    They would only be where you put them.  What program did you use to import them?  Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all.  You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
    If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

    - 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.

  • Iphone 3G only will only flash the Apple logo and do nothing else. HELP

    My phone started acting up yesterday and then it started only showing the apple logo. It flashes off and on. I plugged it in the computer and it stopped when plugged in. I then downloaded the new software and it still does the same thing. Any help or information you can give will be greatly appreciated. I bought the phone overseas so I doubt I can get official support here in the USA. I just moved back to the USA from Singapore.

    See if you can force the phone into recovery mode:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, itunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.

  • My iPhone 5 overheated yesterday and now it won't turn on. When I plug it to charge it only flashes the Apple logo. I've restored my device on iTunes but it's still not turning on. Help!

    So I charged my phone yesterday but it didn't seem to get charged because the battery percentage went lower instead of higher after I plugged out my phone. Then the battery percentage subsequently got lower even faster, jumping from 28% to 15% within ~a minute. It was very hot too, so maybe overheating was the problem. Then I tried charging my phone again after leaving it to cool but it won't charge and keeps flashing the Apple logo.
    I've tried to no use:
    1. pressing the Power button and Home button together for a long time
    2. restoring my device (on iTunes it says that my phone's updated, but it still won't turn on)
    Should I just send my phone to Apple for them to fix it or for a replacement?

    I'm sorry, it seems that the problem is that my phone WON'T restore. I just tried restoring again and it keeps giving me the 2001 error. Help.

  • My iPhone is flashing the apple logo and won't switch on or off

    Hey I have just updated my iPhone 4 and it is flashing the apple logo, I don't own a mac only an iPad is there any way of resolving this? I have plugged it in to a power source to see if that will fix it and nothing works !
    Also the round button is broken on the phone so this won't allow me to reset it :(

    Sorry, but connecting in recovery mode would be the only option before getting it serviced by Apple or visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore
