My iphone 4 is stuck on the battery charge screen.

Hi all,
my iphone 4 ran down to low power, I plugged it in to charge but it didn't. Now it is on the battery screen, and it won't charge, I've had it plugged in for hours, the laptop won't recognise it, I put it into DFU mode and was able to resore it but after it restored it was still stuck on the battery screen. Any ideas?
Thanks
Chris

Can you describe more about what happens when you put the device into DFU? Like after a force restore, are you getting any errors in iTunes?
Always check and make sure everything is up to date. Your iTunes, OS, Firewall, etc.
That being said, is there Any possibility of trying DFU on a different computer? I think it's safe to say this is a software bug in the device and not in the computer. Try getting a different .ipsw from somewhere on the internet rather than depend on Apple to provide you theirs. Google "iOS 5.0.1 .ipsw" and force an install (in DFU mode) by clicking Restore while holding down Shift (Mac) or Alt (Windows).
Worse case scenario is that you have to contact Apple about all of this.

IPhone 5 stuck on low battery charging screen A.K.A $500 Paper Weight

Well this is the third and final iPhone 5 my family has encountered with this issue, Luckily my mom upgraded to a 5S and avoided this issue even though she was experiencing it. Me and my father are not as lucky. Usually jumping power sources and rebooting works. Finally tonight my phone is stuck on it and nothing I can do will bring it off. My phone is totally *mint* and with an otter box defender case looks perfect. Now I would have had it replaced when the battery went to **** after a well known bug they had. However I was not in the warranty window still. Then when my lock/sleep button stopped working that was just icing on the cake. The screen being stuck now is the nail in the coffin. Now I love apple and have had every Generation iPhone since the original. However past 2 years living no where near an apple store has made it unfair and not worth having. The Genius usually take care of you if your not too far outside your warranty and the issue is a known apple defect or issue. However getting a known defect fixed is almost impossible when your not near an apple store. You are stuck paying out of pocket for shipping and even for "recall" work if it happens to not be a recall issue. Plain and simple most of us can't go a week without a phone so when there's a known issue or manafactures defect you can't get it fixed easily. Now because I missed all the recall fixes and everything I am out over $1200 on two iPhone 5. Now do I spend another $1200 and go through the same **** or do I go with samsung? I am going to share this with many forums and try to spread awareness. The iPhone 5 i have noticed to have the most problems and every single one a friend or family member has had all share the same issues and problems. They all are in cases and taken care of and experiencing the same issues. Anyone else notice the same problems? I know I am not alone; how are samsung galaxy's phone and warranty compared to apple and iPhone?

Just sounds like a bad battery.

My ipod touch is jammed on the battery charging screen, i have tried hooking up to itunes to reset it but it jams itunes as well. I cannot switch it off either. Can anyone help?

My ipod touch seems to be jammed on the battery charging screen it has the spining symbol like its trying to load something. I cannot turn it off. I have tried hooking it up to itunes to reset it, but it seems to jam itunes as well. Any help would b much appreciated.

Try:
- Resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Then connecting it to your computer. If iTunes see it, restore the iPod via iTunes
- If no sceen in iTunes, see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will make it visible so you can restore it. For recvery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
- Let, let the battery fully drain and then charger and try again.

Add me to the list of people furious with Apple about this problem...
...I have just got back from a 2 week holiday in Spain, and on day 3 of the holiday my iPhone rebooted itself and stuck at the Apple logo.
What's more annoying, I'd purchased a data abroad plan from o2 for £50 and hardly used it because I couldn't use my iPhone because it was stuck on the **** Apple logo. o2 will not refund the plan I purchased because I had started to use it (about 2.3MB to be precise).
Good job my girlfriend had her trusty Sony Ericsson phone because at least it WORKS as a phone, unlike this **** iPhone 3G which only has one use - as an expensive paperweight.
Come on Apple, at least admit there is a problem and show your loyal customers that you are actually aware there is a serious problem that is causing your iPhones to become utterly useless.
I'm seriously thinking of gettting rid of this iPhone and getting a cheap no frills phone - at least I can use it to make calls.

Is your iPhone Jailbroken ?

My iPhone is stuck in the apple loading screen

My iphone is stuck on the apple boot logo with the loading bar under it, and my computer doesn't say that it is plugged in. I've already tried holding the home and power button trick to turn it off, but my home button had been broken before this so it dosent do anything. I dont know of any other ways to get it out of this screen and working again.

NVM... broke down and called Apple Care. Pressed on/off button and held it for a few minutes before pressing home button. In recovery mode, but at least it is doing something now!

Changing the battery charging screen saver

Currently when I plug my phone into the charger, the Clock app appears by default. Is there any way to change this default? Also are there any apps that display the amount of battery charge graphically? I'd prefer to have a battery charging screen saver than a clock screen saver.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi and welcome to the forums!
To turn of the clock when charging open the clock>menu key>options>scroll to when charging>do nothing>save>exit.
I know of an app "Battery-info" by Toysoft listed as .$.099 in AppWorld.
I'm not endorsing it as I haven't used it, and I'm sure there are other apps as well.

Iphone stuck on red battery charging screen ios7

This is the screen i am stuck on i have tried everything and its been plugged in for ages.. please help me..

Hello there, joeylee123.
The following Knowledge Base article offers some good steps for troubleshooting your issue:
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1476
If your battery doesn't charge, or if your device shows a low-battery image, black screen, or "accessory not supported" alert, follow these steps.
Inspect the connector at the bottom of the phone:
Make sure that there are no bent pins in the connector.
Make sure that the connector is free from debris.
If there are bent pins or debris, please contact Apple Support.
Otherwise, continue troubleshooting.
Make sure that the outlet you're using works.
Make sure that the Apple USB cable and Apple USB power adapter work.
Plug the device in to power and let it charge for up to 30 minutes. If you don't have an Apple USB power adapter, try connecting to a computer's high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be on.
If the device still exhibits an issue, try turning your device off and then on again while connected to power.
If the issue is persists, please contact Apple Support.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

Hey i kind of have the same issue.
I bought a iphone about 1 year ago and about 2 months ago i was not able to see any wifi connections in the area or connect to any even though i was sure that there was a wifi nearby and my fellow coleauges could connect to it with their iphone. I thought that this might have something to do with the "restrictions" so i went to turn the restrictions off but realised that it had a passcode that i had forgotten. I wasnt able to restore it within the iphone so i restored it from my computer. Once i had finished the iphone had a " connect to itunes " on the screen and it said that there was no sim car installed, even though there was. I tried cleaning the sim card and everything else, i tried connecting it to itunes but it just said no sim card installed. Now i cannot use my iphone or cant even activate it. I have also tried to restore it in recovery mode but ended up with the same problem. Please Help.! Thanks

IPhone 3G stuck at the Apple logo screen; will not boot!

My iPhone 3G has been working all day. I rebooted it because it was hanging when trying to use some apps, and now it's hung at the Apple logo. It will not boot fully. I have tried to reboot the phone many times but I get the same problem. I let it sit there for 30 minutes and it does nothing.
Anyone else have this problem? Any ideas on how to fix it without doing a Restore?
Ethan

Oh, they know! I've had all of the above issues, tried every and all remedies several times, even uninstalled and reinstalled itunes. My phone froze up totally for over 24 hours after several attempts to sync and itunes closed then I had to reset, not even an apple logo, just a dim lit screen. Went to the genius bar, they replaced my phone. The tech said apple knows and is working on it.
Note: tried to book an appointment online, none available so I went and signed the standby list.
Luckily someone didn't show up, because they said some people wait for hours.
The new one is doing the same thing. I have yet to sync fully. my contacts & calendar sync OK, a few apps, beyond that nothing-no music, photos, podcasts, ringtones. Itunes hangs during syncing an application and iphone times out. the only option is to close itunes and reset the phone. Upon fully reset, maybe 1 or 2 apps are installed, nothing else. Resetting takes forever, it has frozen again with the apple logo for about 12 hours, and usually about 10-30 min each reset. I have restored the new one twice. Problem is, when it freezes up or times out, itunes won't recognize the iphone at all, it says no iphone detected.
I am now going to restore the phone again, and not attempt to install any apps until this issue is resolved. I have already spent hours on this, and really tried everything. I would rather have my music, ringtones, photos, podcasts etc than a few apps. Shame, because i've spend at least $50 in addition to numerous free apps.
Side note: I scheduled another appointment at the genius bar when my phone was out of commission for 12 hours, they are booked for three days in advance so the issue is still widespread. Luckily I was able to finally get itunes to recognize my phone and restore.

TS3694 Help! When I try to restore my iPhone 5s i keep getting restore errors 11 or 17. the last time i tried restoring it the iPhone got stuck at the restore loading screen

Please help me

From the article that the thread was started from:
Resolve communication issues
Related errors: 17, 1004, 1013, 1638, 3014, 3194, or 3000-3999. These alerts refer to gs.apple.com, say "There was a problem downloading the software," or say the "device isn't eligible for the requested build."
Check the hosts file or TCP/IP filtering, which might cause communication issues between iTunes, ports, and servers
Check for hardware issues
Related errors: 1, 3, 10-47, 1002, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1000-1020, 1669.
Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
Error 1015 might happen after making unauthorized modifications to iOS, also called "jailbreaking."
