IPhone turning off after use
I was wondering if anyone is have the same problem I recently started to have. When I use my phone for about 2 minutes lets say to get on facebook, when I tap the home button to close facebook my iPhone shuts down completely I have to turn the phone back on. I got it on launch day and it did it a couple of times but know its been doing it more frequently. I have had to do a hard reset a couple of time just to get it to turn back on. I am thinking about making an appointment with the genius bar. Has anyone had the same problem?
Thanks
I would try doing a restore first to see if its a software issue. If you still have the same problem, then take it to Apple.

hello sir my iphone screen turns off after using 2-5 minutes what would be the problem please help me out
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:

Sound for messages and e-Mail get turned off after using handsfree in car
Does anyone have a solution when sounds alerting messages and e-mails are turned off after using the phone in var with handsfree (using Bluetooth)? The sounds are turned back on when restarting the phone but reoccurs after driving in car with handsfree again. This is very annoying when takling several trips with car during a day. The phone still rings when receiving a call.
I did find a solution to my iPhone-iPod-music-overriding-streaming-streaming-services-while-connected-to-USB problem Although, this solution is likely only applicable to BMW owners with the BMW Apps feature aka 6NR.
There may be other/simpler ways, but this seems to work:
1) Launch Pandora (or could be Mog, or other BMW Apps app) BEFORE you start iPhone/iPod playback
2) Start playback of Pandora via ConnectedDrive/BMW Apps.
3) Press Home button on iPhone, launch your streaming app.
The car still seems to think it's in the ConnectedDrive audio menu, as evidenced by the Entertainment details screen. You can now consistently play back any other audio service via your iPhone without the iPod audio overriding what you're doing. Good times! The only drawback so far is lack of ability to skip tracks via the steering wheel.
As long as you haven't started iPhone/iPod playback when you get in the car, you can often skip steps #1 and #2, and go straight into the ConnectedDrive menu, then go to step #3. Either way, following steps #1-3 works everytime. -

That sounds like you have internal damage in the SIM card slot. Try taking the phone to an Apple store for evaluation. Make a genius bar appointment first at http://apple.com/retail.

Why does the iPhone turn off after phone calls. I've had two phones now, both have had this problem. It doesn't happen on all calls. On one phone it happened more than the other. But the Iphone turns off after some phone calls and it takes anywhere from about 15-40 seconds before the turn on button will actually turn on the phone. Is this a hardware problem, or a software problem?
It's neither, it's normal. If the phone was asleep when the call came in, it will go back to sleep when the call ends since this was the last thing it was doing when you accepted the call.

My iphone turned off after I got off the phone today. It was more than half way charged and it went totally black. I plugged it into my wall charger and my computer, but nothing has showed up. It doesn't register on the computer either, the charge symbol doesn't appear, and there is no apple logo to be found. I have no idea what happened! It was totally fine before. I tried charging another ipod with my usb and wall charger to make sure that they were still working, and they weren't the problem. What happened? Is the phone dead for good? I have a 3G if that changes anything. THANKS!
Press and hold both the on/off button and the home button and release them both when the apple logo appears. That will reboot the phone. try that.

Iphone turns off after a few mn of utilization with the battery full
My iphone 3GS turns off after the battery is fully regenerated. I can only use it a few minutes before it turns off. I have to plug it again to turn it on, and the indicator of charge is around 98 %. The problem does not come from the battery. Has anybody found the same dis-functioning? A solution? Thanks!
More than likely the iPhone has a hardware problem.
If there is an Apple store nearby, make an appointment to have this confirmed. -

After I downloaded iOS7 and my iPhone turned off I keep getting this message "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes." I dont wanna lose some stuff from my iPhone.
During a normal install of iOS 7.0.6 this does not happen but something clearly went wrong in your installation.
To fix this, connect to iTunes and restore to Factory. Hopefully your iPad will be working again and you can restore your iCloud backup during Setup. -
IPhone 4s turns off after a while when I turn on 3G/wifi
Hi,
Recently I have been facing a serious problem with my iPhone 4s. The battery is draining quickly, I mean very quickly, especially when I am using wifi or 3G. 3G to be more specific.
I have been charging my iPhone 4s at work on the computer USB cable. I don't know if this damages the battery, I believe it has already happened or maybe it messes up the battery life and percentage.
Sometime when I am talking on the phone and I have like 47% it shuts down, whenever I turn on my 3G after a couple of minutes even when i have 70% it shuts down then I wait a couple of minutes and I will be able to turn it back on, it works for a like 1-2 minutes then it shuts down again. I seriously can't use 3G!!! The iPhone will not let me! Sometimes when I open the camera to take pictures, the iPhone turns off!
Is there any way to fix this, has anybody faced this problem, how can I fix it? I have done a restore but it did not work, if I have done it corrrectly.
I currenlty running iOS 7.0.2.
I will appreciate the help.
Regards,
FirasHi firaskurdi
i also ipone user, v6.0.1, maybe your problem are similiar to me.
i have done the following:
hard reset - done
soft reset - done
restore itunes - done
battery calibration - done
firmware 7.0.4 - do not want to perform too because ios7 heard that is drain battery faster than previous firmware.
but do not use.
maybe you can do a battery calibration 1st, means full charge, turn off 3G, use it until 0% and let it shut off, charge back, turn on iphone, wait it charge until 100% without interruption.
then you do a reset on network settings.
i go to apple store, they have same technical knowledge with me, ask to change a new board, or buy a new phone. wow...incredible, my iphone was 1.5 years old and never drop to floor before.
thanks.

IPhone turned off and wont turn on After cleaning my iPhone screen, plugging to charge.
My iPhone won't turn off after I cleaned it with damp towel and then plugging in to charge. The device shut off suddendly and I attempted to reboot it, but it shut off again at the apple logo.
I'm not sure, but is it possible that some moisture went into the earpiece? There are no indications of water damage internally and externally (checking the water damage indicators).
I saw some condensation in the front facing camera, but I've seen it occur before when I left my iPhone in a steamy bathroom (thought it was normal since the phone still worked fine).
The device won't turn on or charge. I put it in a bag of rice to remove the moisture, but it still hasnt turn on.
What should I do? I don't want to shell out $150+tax for a replacement.
I have an iPhone 4 16gb.So you have an aparantly dead iPhone that won't switch on, even though you know the battery has some charge.
The apple solution is to try holding the Home button and power button in together for 10 seconds. But, I have found that this doesn't work 100% of the time.
There are two important steps that I have found do work.
1. Make sure the phone is connected to a power source, it can be the USB cable or mains adaptor.
2. Press and hold the Home button and power button and keep them held in until the Apple logo appears on the screen.
Don't worry if this takes longer than the 10 seconds Apple recommend - it might take up to a minute but it will work.
Once the Apple logo has appeared it may take longer than usual to 'boot' to the normal home screen - don't worry this seems normal.
I have used this method on the iPhone 3Gs and iPhone 4, but it should work on previous models - do let me know if not.
Conclusion
Your iPhone should now be working as normal. -

1.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.
2.Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
3.Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
4.After at least 15 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.
5.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.
6.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.
7.If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
