Iphone4 switches off everytime walk around with it in pocket

Iphone4 switches it self off everytime I walk around with it in my pocket, and it's very difficult to switch back on again. Is this a common issue or a manufacturing error, I've taken it to my service provider already and they can't find the fault with it. Please help don't know what I should do. Also have loaded the latest software.

As Alan said, an iPhone cannot self-power off unless the battery dies or there's a fault.
Try fully discharging and then fully recharging your battery to recalibrate the battery meter.
Try resetting your iPhone by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
Try restoring as new, i.e. without your backup.
If none of those work, return it to wherever you bought it for diagnosis and possible replacement.

  • Is it okay to walk around with "MacBook"

    we just got wireless internet and my mom just walked back to my room and showed me a video on "you" "tube" & i was wondering if it hurts the laptop to be carried while its in use?
    and can i get some more tips on taking care of our new "macbook"
    thanks =)

    Its NOT a good idea to walk around with you Apple MB running IF you're walking down the halls of the Microsoft Campus. Hey, its not safe to drink coffee while using your MB also IF you are going to turn the cup upside down while it's over the keyboard.
    Otherwise, its a question of how safe you want to be. I've been walking around my home with every laptop I've ever owned without ANY problems. The only thing you have to be aware of is that you're getting "out on the edge" if you were to trip and end up toss the MB at the same time. ANYTIME I carry my MB and especially while it's running, I'm especially careful about where I'm stepping and other surrounding that might make me drop it if I were to bump into them.
    Life's too short to never take a teeny step out on the edge.
    Another thing to consider. Most laptops are built pretty sturdy. A few years ago I had an IBM Thinkpad that was a pretty good notebook, but like all of them, it came time to get a better one. So I advertised in on Craigslist, made a contact to sell and while I was waiting for the buyer to come over to pick it up, it fell off my kitchen counter and bounced on the hardwood floor. I figured it was toast, but I went ahead and turned it on and it booted right up. Not a ding one on it. I sold the computer with a 2 week guarantee and never heard from my buyer again so I assume there no damage that I didn't notice.
    So, live a little and carry it around when you want to share something with your family or friends and I doubt you'll ever have a problem.
    As far as the Apple warning about moving while the computer is on, that's their lawyer talk. Same as the warning about not using a hairdryer in the bathtub.

  • DEVICE SWITCH OFF EVERYTIME FREQUENTLY NOW...

    Dear Concern,

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    First off, to set your expectation correctly, please see this "sticky" post, along with the threads to which it links, for helpful information to guide you as you proceed:

    Hopefully, this information will be of use to you.
    Concerning your specific issue, please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain directly connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB, not a cradle):
    With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
    Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    Remove the battery
    Wait 15 minutes
    Insert the battery
    Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    This has been known to "kick start" some BBs.
    It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:
    Obtain an known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happens
    Obtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happens
    The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem. Note carefully please that "new" and "know good" are not necessarily the same things. While rare, a "new" battery certainly could be defective. Rather, the simplest (and least costly, btw) method to conduct this test is to find someone with an identical BB who has no issues...trade batteries and see what happens.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • How to switch off the induction furnace with LabView efter an LCF test is finished?

    Hi,
    I am working with low cycle fatigue testing at Instron 8801 and are
    using Instron Fast Track2 LabView LCF software for controlling tests,
    read the files, calculate modulus, etc. and produce figures. For
    heating of the specimens during LCF-tests I use induction furnace with
    Eurotherm 2604 controller. The problem I have is how to stop or switch
    off the induction furnace when the test is finished?
    I would be very grateful if You have any suggestions how to solve this
    problem.
    Regards

    That depends on how you want to turn it off. I am not familiar with the Instron Fast Track, but the Eurotherm can be controlled directly from Labview using the modbus comms. When the test is finished, you can send a reset program command(if a program is running), or send a different setpoint, etc.
    If you have digital outputs available on your computer, you could wire one of them to a digital input on the 2604 to do just about anything.
    If you have the OPC version of Eurotherm iTools, you can control the 2604 with Datasocket connections.
    Please give a few more details, and maybe we can figure out the best way to do it.

  • Hi! pls say how to switch off matt interface around the icons in ios 7?

    The question is in the name of the theme =)

    iOS doesn't have "themes". You can make some changes to the look of iOS 7 in Settings>General>Accessibility. You can change contrast, font size and boldness. I'm not sure exactly what you mean by "matt (matte?) interface around the icons". Perhaps if you could explain a little more?
    Best of luck.

  • Static Noise in Earbuds while walking/jogging with iPhone in pocket?

    4S. I am having random but frequent pops and clicks coming through my earbuds-3 different kinds/brands-while my iPhone is in my front pocket and I am  walking and or running. Happens with a case, without, etc. Doesn't  happen if I hold it in my hand and it's not the cable coming out of the  socket. Could it be static caused by the movement near cloth?

    I walk outside on my way to the bus stop for school. I keep it in my hoody pocket and pull it out regularly and it seems fine oh and its winter....so yeah....

  • Why is my ipad still using battery power when switched off & locked away with no one using it?

    Why is my IPad still discharging battery when switched off and locked away - with no one using it?  Charged it to 100% on holiday and locked in safe.  2 days later it was at 76%!

    How is it "switched off"? Are you pressing the button on the top so the screen goes black? If so, that isn't shut off, but put to sleep. I will still be doing things in the background and using battery power.
    To shut it fully off, press and hold the button on top, you will get a notification on the screen that says "Slide to power off". Slide the button and it will turn completly off.
    If this is how you switched it off, let us know and we will see what else we can figure out.

  • I had switches off my iPhone 5 at around 20 percent battery next morning I was not able to switch it on. I tried to get it charged but it didn't showed any sign of charging even when plugged in for about 2 hours. I had to take it to apple care centre

    I had switches off my iPhone 5 at around 20 percent battery next morning I was not able to switch it on. I tried to get it charged but it didn't showed any sign of charging even when plugged in for about 2 hours. I had to take it to apple care centre but they refused to repair it after confirming the problem with the device as it was out of warranty and asked me to get it replaced for INR 22500. I got it repaired outside but after that also if I switch it off in the same situation it again happens and I have to take it for repair it has happened 3 times after that. Is it a inherent problem in iPhone that it uses battery even when switched off and if in that case battery drain out then refuse to get charged because this is the scenario i have experienced every time?

    Apple told you it was unrepairable.... You had it serviced by an unauthorized party. It's now no longer eligible for out of warranty replacement by Apple.
    There's really nothing else we can say about it. Find a competent 3rd party repair shop or buy a new one.
