My Iphone 3gs shuts off and on by itself several times.
I bought a Iphone 3gs from a friend and it has no service on it yet. Anyways it turns itself off and on several times through out the day would not haveing and service cause this issue? Also when i plug it up to the computer and try to sync it with itunes it continuesly does it over and over. Could i get some help please
hey ive had this problem too!....i took it to the apple store and they said the 3gs is now "old" and i need a new one and it may be the battery, i changed the battery but that didnt make a difference!...ive found that its a problem with the software and im in the process of trying to fix it myself...troubleshooting and resetting the settings back to factory settings may just do the trick!

My iphone will shut off and then turn itself back on
I plugged my Iphone in( at60%) and then made a facetime call during the call I noticed my phone was still stuck on 60% after the call I unplugged the phone,plugged it back in nothing happend. So then I hard reset it and it said I had 97% then I decied to turn it off and back off and it went down to 92% now it keeps randomly shutting itself off and turning itself back on every 5-10 minutes. I tried restoring it but Itunes says it cant connect to the update server and to try again.What do I do?
You should try backing up the data, restoring the device as new and try if that solves the problem. NB: set up as NEW device, don't restore with backup, because a software issue will also be in the backup. If the issue persists after restoring as new, the device needs service.

My iphone 3gs is off and wont start up.
My iphone 3gs is off and wont start up. And when plugg it into the charger it starts up for a minute and shut down. but whithout charger dosnt do anything. Cant restore and it is not a battery problem.
Sure sounds like faulty battery.
Open iTunes on computer, connect iPhone to computer, hold both Home and Power buttons until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. Usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Restore the Firmware. -

Plug into a wall charger for about 10 mins and see if it comes back on. You may have a dead battery.

HT1430 my iphone 3gs turned off and on abruptly?
my iphone 3gs turned off and on abruptly?
Try holding down the Sleep/Wake button and Home button at the same time,
Continue to hold both down until you see the Apple Logo on the screen. Once you see the Apple Logo on the screen let go of both buttons and allow the iPhone to reset.
Hope this helps -

My iPhone 4 shut off and I am not able to get it to turn on. Is there something I can do to troubleshoot it?
Assuming it's not a dead battery, hold Sleep/Wake button and Home button until the Apple logo appears.

My Iphone 4 shut off and wont turn back on, will a reset wipe my Data?
My Iphone 4 shut off and wont turn back on. If I do a reset with the power and home buttons will I for sure lose all data that hasn't been backed up on my computer in the last week?
No.
A reset is very similar to rebooting your computer. -
