My apple iPhone 4s keeps turning off

My iPhone 4S keeps turning off when its not in use. Every time it turns off, it has full battery power and it does not turn on by simply pressing the power button, I always have to press both the power button and the home button for like 4 seconds so that it turns on again. Can somebody help me figure out what the problem might be?

Did you try to restore it? If not, then do it first. If it doesn't work, then I guess it may be a problem with an iPhone itself. Anyway, your problem is strange, I have to say... Especially if it comes to the way you turn an iPhone on again. I still believe it should be a problem with a system, because that's what an iPhone needs to know how to turn on. If it turns on only in that untypical way, then I honestly guess that something is wrong with an iOS you have on your iPhone. Maybe try to reinstal it.

IPhone 3GS keeps turning off/shutting down.Have done system restore but no improvement. Suggestions welcome.

iPhone 3GS keeps turning off/shutting down. After numerous attempts I've managed to get it on again. Any ideas - could it be battery? Suggestions welcome.

Try forcing the phone into recovery mode and restore as a new device.
Follow these steps:
iOS: How to back up your device and setup as a new device
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
Doing this will help eliminate any possible software issue that could be causing this. Setting up a new device will bypass a backup with possible data corruption.
If the issue continues after this, you should contact Apple for service for the phone as it will very likely be a hardware issue.

IPhone 5 keeps turning off after battery replacement

iPhone 5 keeps turning off after battery replacement. After 10 minutes or so, the phone freezes and shuts off, can't even use it anymore.

Hi there Luke811813,
I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.
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
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.

My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?

Check in your settings Eddie4502.Under General there is an item called "Auto-lock" You can set it from 1 to 5 minutes or never. Perhaps its set to 1 minute which isn't enought time to sneeze! I use 5 minutes.

My iPhone 5 keeps turning off on its own randomly what should I do

My iPhone 5 keeps turning off on its own randomly, sometimes turning itself back on automatically but sometimes staying off, i have tried a system restore but has no effect, what should I do?

Do you have a case on the iPhone? Did you accidentally drop it or damage it in anyway?
You could try restoring the iPhone and setting it up as a new device, as shown here -> iOS: How to back up your data and set up as a new device

HT201401 Why does my iPhone 3G keep turning off by itself even when it's not dead?

My dad had his iPhone 3G and gave it to me when he had an upgrade. He never had the issue of it turning off by itself, but when he gave it to me, all of a sudden it decided to turn off by itself even when it was on like 80% still.
I took it in to the Apple Store near me and they said that I had too much "stuff" on it, mostly music.
So, I completely redid my phone. I reset it completely so that it looked like a completely new iPhone. And then downloaded only 12 apps and 195 songs. And, only about 50 pictures. (This is an 8 gig by the way)
Right now, there's less than 4 gigs on there so far meaning I still have more than half of my phone to fill. They guy at the store said it needs 2 gigs to run.
SO, it should have started working since theres way less stuff on there now, and more than enough space to run. Why does it keep turning off still though?
It's so annoying and inconvenient. If anyone could help it would be SO appreciated.
THANKS!!

Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as a new device. Go through each step in succession until your issue is resolved.

IPhone 4 keeps turning off randomly.

Ever since I updated to iOS 5, my iPhone keeps turning off at random times. At first, it didn't happen too often, and I would be able to turn my phone back on without any problems. Now, it shuts off quite often to the point where I can barely use it. And very time I'd try to turn it back on, the Apple logo would appear like it's starting up normally and right when it's about to actually turn back on, it just shuts back off. The only time it's able to turn back on is if I plug it in. Any help/fixes to this problem? I tried doing hard resets, tried setting up the phone as new, deleted apps, etc...nothing has worked. Is anyone having the same problem??

Iphone 4 keeps turning off even though its battery shows 100%

My iphone keeps turning off although the battery is 100%. I cant turn it on because it shows that my iphone does not have any battery left. When i plug it in the computer/charge it, it turns on and shows 100%. It has never happened to me before and it just randomly had this problem today. Please help.

This is most likely faulty battery. Make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple Store for free quick battery diagnostic testing.

Connect device to itunes and hold power and home together
When it restarts, immediately release home key
Keep holding the power button for 3 secs
Without releasing power, hold home too for 10 secs
Then release power but dont release home
Keep holding it for about 12 secs(until you hear device detection sound)
Your phone is in DFU mode now
Click restore in itunes and see if it works
If backup is not possible, you will lose all data
