Iphone has gone "DEAD" :(

Hi there, my iPhone switched itself off yesterday for no apparent reason! I took out the sim card & put it on a heater in case it had got damp - after about 30mins i put it back in & the phone came on but oly for 20mins or so. I can't switch it on since. It didn't get wet - i didn't drop it - it just stopped working.....It's only 8months old! Did anyone else experience this? Plz help - my husband bought this for me & has no insurance

It's still under warranty, so if there really IS something wrong with it Apple will exchange it.
First try a Reset - Hold HOME and SLEEP until an Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). If it is completely dead charge it for 30 minutes using the mains charger first.

  • My iphone has gone dead after updating to os 6 and wont power up help

    I got an update for os 6.started update but after a while the phone went dead and now it will not power up.if i cant power it up i cant restore it in itunes.any advice would be great.

    Seems like you are restoring from a blank back up if it is still asking you those 3 options of set up as new, restore from itunes or icloud back up. Set the iPhone up as new then manually restore from a back up. Follow the steps foriTunes 10.7 or earlier in the article below as it is the same process for iTunes 11:

    When you do this you will be able to check for backs showing date and time. Be sure to choose a back up made before you restored to factory settings.

  • My iphone has gone dead and now not charging.

    I had it on charge at about 12 today took it of and went dead about an hour ago. Now its not charging at all. I have tried 2 diffrent usb cables into the wall plus the computer. I have only had it since July last year.

    "Debris pocket"?  I said "check for pocket debris" as in debris /dirt / fluff from whatever pocket you might carry the phone in.  A piece of dirt in the phone's docking port can easily prevent a good connection being made with the charging cable.

    After ios7, My iphone4 has gone dead twice in a time frame of around two months...even though its not happening very often but a two month Old phone going dead just after a New update is not acceptable.probably ios7 still has sum bugs dat need to be fixed...Can this bug expected to be fixed in the next update...

    Hi 1283ar.
    Unfortunately, iOS 7 is too hard to push for the iPhone 4 and therefore has a lot of effects turned off to try to get it to run as smoothly as possible.
    However, it becomes better and better with each update coming but it's hard to do anything about the hardware on an already released phones.
    If you still have trouble or think they are too hard. My tip is, if so, to restore your iPhone 4 and make a clean setup with no iCloud backup. But all your photos in a photostream so you can access it later.

  • Serial port A has gone dead, B is ok, how to use it with rommon?

    Good day,
    the serial port A on E250 has gone dead. The communication is one-way, I can send, but no response is received. However serial port B is ok. Question is, how can I use port B for rommonitor/solaris install?
    Thanks,

    well, here's a thought... but i'm not sure how useful it will be to either of you if the system currently won't boot.
    the openboot environment variables you're going to change are input-device and output-device
    if you were at an ok> prompt, you could simply type 'setenv input-device ttyb', i think you'd also have to set the output-device :)
    if you were booted into solaris, you could use the /usr/platform/<your platform here>/sbin/eeprom command to set the eeprom values, for both of you, your platform is sun4u, so you would type:
    /usr/platform/sun4u/sbin/eeprom input-device=ttyb
    likewise for output-device, you can check your eeprom settings by running eeprom without any arguments.
    if you can't boot up currently... then... uh... crap... that's tough... if you can't get into it at all you're gonna have to call sun... probably want to replace that motherboard anyways...

  • My iphone has gone mute

  • My iphone has gone off and will not recharge or turn on again?

    My iphone has gone off and will not recharge or turn on again. What do I do to fix this?

    Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.  You might need to hold the buttons for as long as a minute.

  • Ch has gone dead apple store says its had its life at only just over a year old can thuis b right anybody out there had the same problem.

    My ipod touch has gone dead, it is only 1 and half old, apple shop says it is just old and cant b repaired,surely it should last longer than this, anyone out there experienced same. really angry as I have just bought one for my grandson for this Xmas.

    Like all products, especially electrical ones, some have short lifes.  Apple does not fix your broken iPod.  They will exchange it for a refurbished one it for $99, $149 or $199 depending upon the capacity.

  • My machine has gone dead slow. I have to wait for minutes to perform every single function. Like it stopped typing four times during this question.

    My machine has gone dead slow. I have to wait for minutes to perform every single function. Like it stopped typing four times during this question.

    If this started happening without your having made any changes and without a warning of low disk space, then it's likely that the boot drive, or some other hardware component, is failing. Back up all data immediately, then run the Apple Hardware Test or Apple Diagnostics.
    Even if the test is negative, you should make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested more thoroughly.

    My Iphone has gone in to recovery mode every time I try to recover it states a message "The iphone "iphone' could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (2001)

    Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
    If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software. If the errors persist on another computer and known-good USB cable, the device may need service.

  • My iPhone just gone dead, It had more than 50% left.

    My iPhone just gone dead, It had more than 50% left and was on my desk next to me. When I picked it up it was dead. I cannot swirch it on and when I connect it to my computer to load it does not show any signs of life.

    Have you tried a reset by pressing and holding both the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear ? A reset is the equivalent of a computer reboot
