IPhone 5C keeps switching itself off and struggles to start again. I've updated and rebooted the phone; do I need to go to a store?

I've restarated the phone twice and updated iTunes and the iOS Software. But this problem sill persists. Do I need to take my phone back to an Apple Store to get a new one or is there anything else I can try?

Sounds like you need to take it back to the Apple store and tell them the replacement isn't working.

  • My iphone 5 keeps switching itself on and off and screen different colours?

    My iphone 5 keeps switching itself on and off randomly, the screen has also gone a green and red colour prior to it turning itself off and sometimes will not come back on unless re-set? help?!

    If you already tried a restore to factory settings, it looks like a hardware issue to me.
    I would take it to an Apple Store for replacement.

  • My 3gs keeps switching itself off and when i turn it on, the date is set to 1st January 1970

    I Have an Iphone 3gs that keeps switching itself off and when i turn it on, the date is set to 1st January 1970 :S   ... many software resets and updates won't do any good .. repaired at the manufacturer twice for the same, and works till it happens again on it's own. When it was repaired, the fix was mentioned as a reset done for the device. I have a friend who is alse havng same issue.
      can someone tell what is the reset that can be done to tr and do it from my end plzzz?

    Sounds like the battery is dead.  Bu try the following to rule out a software problem:
    - Reset the iPOd
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
    If still problem your battery is very likely dead.  An appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • 6500 slide keeps switching itself off

    Just got my shiny new 6500 slide which keeps switching itself off. The only way of switching it back on when this happens it to take the battery out, put it back in and then press the power button. It happens about once or twice a day and it seems to be when the phone is charging.
    Anyone else experiencing this? Is there a way of resetting the phone to prevent this happening?
    I'd really like to fix it without the hassle of going back to the shop and trying to demonstrate a very unpredictable fault.

    I would definately take your phone back and get it replaced. I had problems with my 6500 slide, every time i turned it on & off i would have to resest the time & date. I purchased my phone from an internet retailer and they exchanged it for a new one, so far i have had no problems...

  • 7380 keeps switching itself off

    My 7380 keeps switching itself off - sometimes when its not being touched, sometimes when the controls are touched. It then won't turn back on. Taking the sim card out and putting it back on sometimes works, and the phone will restart, but not all the time. Does anyone else have similar problems?

    I've had repeated problems with my 7380 doing the same thing. I received my first 7380 on 26th April and it only switched on twice before refusing to switch on at all. Orange replaced this phone and I received my second 7380 on 28th April.
    On 9th June my phone started switching itself off. The problem's getting increasingly worse and now it doesn't stay on for more than 3 or 4 hours at a time. So far I have been able to switch it back on again without too many problems. Orange have promised another replacement which will arrive tomorrow, but I'm extremely disappointed. If the next phone fails then I too will be demanding that Nokia replace it with a different model.

  • My iPhone 3GS keeps turning itself off all the time for no reason every time I put it on silent or just get a Facebook message I have a broken sleep/power button anyone know how to fix this problem?

    My iPhone 3GS keeps turning itself off all the time the power/sleep button dosent work so it's quiet annoying having to plug it in all the time dose anyone have a fix for this?

    The "fix" is to get the phone repaired.  There's no magic solution for a broken phone.
    Bring your phone ant $149 to Apple for an out of warranty replacement, or find a 3rd party repair shop near you. 

  • My G5 keeps switching itself off

    I switch it on and then after about 3-5 mins it switches itself off.
    What gives?
    Andy

    Look at Applications>Console and check your System log to see if there are any notations about shutting down after exceeding maximum temperatures. You might also like to run Apple Hardware Test to see if there are any problems with your power supply unit. If you have the first G5 model, the Rev A, you can check the LEDs http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300908.

    I have a hard time understanding why I can't contact support about THEIR problem. I plugged my iPhone into my pc. iTunes came up. It said there was an update available for the phone. I accepted that. Clicked on the "download only" because I didn't have the time to install it at that point. It downloaded but didn't stop. It continued to the 'backing up your iPhone' segment then froze. I waited at least an hour with no change. Finally I unplugged my phone..iTunes wasn't responding.I rebooted my pc then tried the same thing again. Same outcome even though I let it "Back Up" for 7-8 hrs while I slept. Same Story...............         iTunes 10.4.0.80 is the software I'm using. When my phone is 'plugged' in what I see on it's face is "Sync in Progress".....for hours!

  • My i phone keeps switching itself off and on

    my iphone keeps switching itself on and off

    Yes, there is a hard reset, using the power and home button at the same time does temporarily remove power to the device to force a "hard boot" its in the support knowledge base, you can search if you do not agree
    the terms hard and soft are just terms i use to make it more understandable to the reader, a 'reset' is what you do to a phone that simply cycles itself and is unresponsive to restarting http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430

  • Why does my i phone 4 keep switching itself off

    hi can anyone help why does my phone keep switching itself off

    Hi jodierigby,
    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,
    - Ari

  • ICloud drive keeps switching itself off on my iPad 2

    I have a MBP and an iMac = both on Yosemite and both working with iCloud drive OK.
    But I cannot get this to work on iPad 2 with IOS 8 - with either Pages or Keynote.  It keeps telling me to set up iCloud - which I do as per instructions - but it sends me round in the same circles!
    This is driving me crazy and has wasted hours!  I have signed in and out of iCloud several times and enabled iCloud Drive.  Then also down to Pages app and checked on for 'use iCloud'  Somehow - this switches itself off again after a few seconds!  How does this happen?
    Why does it not stay on????????
    While it is 'on' - Every time I try to use the Pages app I cannot see my iCloud drive documents - and when I try and save it then tells me to set up iCloud!
    This is useless to me if it will not work as advertised!

    I suggest that you do a update or reinstall of the phone software via the Update Service program. www.sonyericsson.com/updateservice
    Hopefully will that solve your problem.
    If you get the option to update I suggest that you select to update and also factory reset the phone.
    If you only get the option to reinstall you already have the latest version, this will automatically result in a master reset too.

  • My i phone 4 keeps switching itself off

    Does anyone have an issue where the I-phone 4 just switches itself off, and the only way to get it running again is to connect to the charger and switch it on , it then comes up with a message to say the battery level is it 30% ?

    I have the same issue! In fact I posted this exact question!!
    Hugh Grest wrote previously:
    Hi,
    My iPhone 4s 16GB is giving me a lot of issues with its battery as of late. Once the battery level reaches below about 30% the phone randomly turns itself off -- even if the battery level didn't reach zero. When I try to turn it back on, it just shows the out of charge symbol on the screen. When I plug it in however it turns itself back on immediately and shows the battery level it turned itself off on. I can then unplug it and continue to use it until the battery level drops to zero or the issue happens again.
    Both my mom and my sister have the same model iPhone as me and do not have this issue. What should I do? (It has already been restored).
    Additional info:
    - My Phone is about 23months old
    - Running iOS 6.1.3
    - This issue has been happening for about 3 months or more
    EDIT: Just upgraded to iOS 7... didn't help. Infact it made it worse! The phone battery now drains quicker which means the issue happens sooner!
    This is so annoying!

  • IPhone 4S Battery - Switching itself off

    Hello,
    For the past few months I've noticed a problem with my iPhone 4s.
    When the battery drops below 50%, but usually arround the 20-40% mark it will switch itself off.
    I try and turn it back on and it shows me the symbol that says it needs charging.
    If i leave it for a few minutes (between 5 - 15) I'll be able to switch it back on and it'll show with 20/30/40% battery.
    Or if I plug it in to charge it'll switch on immediately and again say I have 20/30/40% battery.
    It used to happen once in a while, but then started to become more regualr, happening a couple of times a week.
    So I took it into my local Apple Store and they ran a diagnostic on it, said that it wasn't showing a battery failure, but if I wanted to pay £130 they would replace the battery for me.
    Has anyone else had this issue? It's completely random so hard to replicate in store, it just happens.
    My iPhone is about 18 months old if that makes any difference.
    Thanks

    Forgot to say:
    I've restored my iphone a few times since then and still happens.
    And the woman at the Apple Store said she'd never come across this problem before.
