IPhone keeps rebooting after restart

Whenever I try to shut off and restart my IPhone it stays on the apple logo start up screen for about 5 minutes then goes to the screen to slide to unlock and freezes so I cannot unlock the phone. Then after about 3 minutes it goes to a black screen with the round waiting symbol on it, then back to the slide to unlock screen again, then black waiting screen, then it reboots itself again and starts the process over. The first time this happened it went through the cycle 3 times. The next time I waited 2 hours and for it to work and finally went into itunes to restore it. I try holding down home and on/off buttons and it reboots it again, but nothing happens. So today my phone just restarted on its own when I was in Safari and after about 20 minutes I took it to the Verizon store to see what they can do about it. First they said to contact Apple support, then a guy held down the home and on/off button and then it unfroze. I told him I already tried that 2 or 3 times today since this problem started, but he didn't care because he was too mad he missed out on a sale to "help" me. So the phone works now, but I know if I just try to restart it again the phone will just go through the rebooting problem all over again. I have not dropped the phone and I thought restoring the phone would fix it if it was a software glitch, so I'm thinking it may be a hardware issue so what should I do if Verizon does not want to help me? I've had it less than a year so I would like to get it fixed before the warrently runs out.

If no change after restoring the iPhone as a new iPhone or not from the backup, call AppleCare or make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.
Verizon doesn't exchange iPhones under Apple's warranty if required, Apple does.

  • Iphone requires password after restarting??

    Hi.
    My iPhone broke so my brother gave me his old 4s. I got it and it was jailbroken so i did a complete factory reset and updated it to the latest firmware. I gave it a full charge and the next day once it went to about 80% it turned off randomly, i tried turning it on, sometimes it would other times i would need to put it in charge again. It would always say once i had turned it on "Iphone requires password after restarting" so i assumed it was possibly a battery problem. So i bought a battery from ebay with decent ratings and replaced it. The iPhone no longer turns off every 10 minutes, but the battery does only last about 3-4 hours and usually once it goes to 15 or below it will turn off. Any idea what could be causing this?

    I know it is normal, but is constantly restarting. As I said, this problem was happening every 10 minutes making the phone completely impractical before i replaced the battery, so changing the battery has actually made my phone usable and I actually get a good solid few hours on it whereas before i wasn't.
    This would surely indicate that it is a problem other than the battery and its not really a question of the quality of the battery I have bought as the problem was persisting with the stock apple battery before hand.

  • My iPhone 6+ keeps rebooting after installing iOS 8.3

    I have a 128Gb iPhone 6+. When I downloaded and installed iOS 8.3 via WIFI, it went through the usual download sequence and then started continually rebooting. After about 20 or so reboots, I got a white screen with a carrier signal on the top left, a location icon and a grayed-out bluetooth icon and the battery level indicator on the top right, and a curious "information" icon (a letter "i" in a circle) at the bottom right of the screen.
    I tried tapping on the "i" but got no response. Then the iPhone went into the reboot cycle again. After several reboot cycles, I got the same white screen again. Then the iPhone again started rebooting and hasn't stopped.
    My iPhone 6+ has been problematic since I installed iOS 8.1.2. Several random reboots (about 4 cycles, before the iPhone returned to "normal") and some other issues that I didn't document.
    I brought the iPhone to the nearest authorized Apple repair center. They said that they could not find any problem and neither could they duplicate the issue I experienced. They recommended that the next time reboots happened that I should make a video of the error. Also, they recommended that I keep all of the apps updated (which I conscientiously do). So I decided to make a log of all the errors since the iPhone was returned to me.
    Here are the entries to my log:
    iPhone 6+ Errors since March 30, 2015

  • IPhone 4 keeps rebooting after multiple restores

    When it first started, it was jailbroken and I had turned off all data while in Canada.  When I crossed back into the US I made a call and it started rebooting every minute or so until the battery got too low.  I have restored it multiple times without jailbraking but it just keeps rebooting. 
    First it would not charge past 3% then it charged for a bit but now it is back stuck at 3%.  I am thinking but I am not sure if it is a battery issue.  Anyway to verify this?  Also should it charge when off, or in one of the restore modes?

    I even have the same problem. After searching the web for long what i now know is that Apple knows this problem. I have even read in some posts that apple replaced the iphones for couple of people. There are even videos on you tube about the same issue we are suffering with. But the bad part is that despite apple knowing this issue they are not addressing or even replying to individuals like me and you for the way forward. I this case you are lucky that you stay in USA and could be having Apple store just next to you but i am in a real mess here in Kenya. As i will have to travel 400km to have the phone repaired or replace the phone.

    - Try on another computer

  • IPhone keeps rebooting, unusable

    The iPhone 4S keeps rebooting and is unusable.  The reboot begins, and then restarts before the phone fully reboots.  I have tried to connect to my computer to backup and perform a full restore but the phone disconnects from iTunes each time the reboot starts.

  • Iphone keeps rebooting

    I have an iPhone 4s and it keeps rebooting.  I get the Apple logo, then the circle timer but it just stops and then repeats. 

    Hello jfrag13,
    Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone.  It is definitely inconvenient and frustrating when you are not able to access your iPhone.
    I recommend following these steps for the issue you described:
    If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on),reset your device.
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
    You can find the full article here:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281
    If you get to step 5, I recommend backing up your iPhone before performing the restore:

  • 13.3 Macbook Pro Retina Keeps rebooting after recent iTune updates

    This morning after I installed the new iTune updates (11.2.?), the macbook pro just flashed with some color stripes and then screen went black. I need to long hold reboot key to turn it off and turn it back on.
    My iPhone was connecting with the Macbook during the update. I am not sure if this is connected to the issue. I unplugged iPhone and rebooted the Macbook. But right after I log in, the color stripe things came again and the macbook went dead. Now it is stuck in this status. I think I need to bring it to the apple store and have the "genius" guys fix it

  • Desktop/Finder keeps rebooting after upgraded to Maverick (mac mini hooked up to a home theater system)

    My desktop keeps rebooting ever since I upgraded to Mavericks.
    Current setup, Mac Mini hooked up to home theater (Panasonic SC-HTB20) that is then hooked up to my Panasonic Plasma TV.
    I usually leave my Mac Mini on running and at least once a day when I turn on the TV I can see that my desktop was rebooted. Firefox and Chrome will say that it wasn't shut down properly and if I want to restore my previous session. Also some times when I switched the input to watch TV and switch back, all my windows will be scattered out of place. For example Chrome will be in the top left hand corner to the point that it's almost minimized and I wouldn't be able to move it as well. Only thing I can do is close out these applications and relaunch them. It doesn't appear that the OS actually crashed, but more like the desktop/finder itself crashed. Cause once in a while I will switch back or turn on the TV and the screen will stay black for a few minutes then I'll see the cursor in the top right hand corner. After that I will start to see the desktop and my application start loading. It doesn't go through the regular process of rebooting where you see the Apple logo so I don't think the OS actually crashed but I could be wrong.
    For some reason it seems like Maverick doesn't like the home theater system. An almost guarantee way to reproduce the issue is to wait for the home theater to turn off after it's been inactive for a while. If I turn it on the home theater to have the audio coming from it I will see the desktop goes black immediately then the whole desktop reboot process I mentioned above will kick in.
    Never had any of these issues on 10.7 before I upgraded to Maverick.
    Anybody have any suggestion? I really don't want to format and downgrade back to 10.7.
    Thanks

    Sounds like a kernel panic.
