My iphone4 suddenly continuously vibrated and died completely.  I cannot even power up.  Any ideas?

That would be my assumption ... but there are places that do fix iDevices and it may be repairable. If it is out of warranty - you don't have to worry about voiding the Apple warranty - which would occur if you have an a device repaired that is still under warranty. You make it sound like the warranty is over so ....
If you want to try to get the button fixed - Google "iPhone repairs"" or iPhone repair centers" or something to that effect.

  • My iphone 4 keeps on vibrating  and screen was blank too!

    I bought the iPhone 4 in August 2011. In Sep 2011 , i first faced this issue.
    Issue: iPhone was on silent mode. Suddenly it started vibrating continously with blank screen, may be some call was coming that's why it started vibrating but not sure. I panicked and didn't knew what was happening, i consulted few forums and came to know that its a known issue but Apple has not done anything in this regard, Don't know why?
    Solution: Reboot the iPhone. I did that and then it got stucked at apple logo screen for several minutes and then after rebooting it several times, I got lucky and it started and first thing device did was to search for network.
    Then till today morning everything was fine. Today this issue again came to haunt me but I was prepared because of past experience and I again follow the same to resolve it.
    At first, I thought it was a one-off issue  but second occurence of the same means something is not right with the device.
    Can someone from Apple reply on this post to tell what needs to be done.
    Should I take the device back to Apple Store? or Apple is coming up with some fix for this issue?
    Any help is much appreciated because I don't wish to face the same issue again.
    Thanks,
    Dev

    My iPhone 4 just died! I felt it vibrating in my pocket and when I grabbed the phone to answer what I thought to be a phone call the screen was blank. I found out my buddy had called me at that moment, he was outside my house, as I was opening my garage door I had the phone in my pocket and he had his phone to his ear. He did not realize I knew he was outside, this proves that there was a phone call being made at the time this happened. I figured the phone just glitched out because I hit the F/U button on the top really quick because I knew the conversation I was about to have would be pointless. The phone vibrated for 3-5 minutes before stopping, during the time which the phone was completely blank. The phone was lifeless and would not take charge (the battery was at 50% at time this happened). After letting it sit to see if it would turn back on I decided to plug it in to the computer to see if it would trigger a start up, nothing happened. Strangest thing about the whole situation is that when my friend called my phone after the whole vibrating and dying, it still rang like it was on, not my iPhone, what he heard on his phone. So on his end, he could hear a ringing tone when calling my phone, I had nothing on my end. I will be contacting Apple tomorrow about the issue. I am sure they will have nothing but insulting advice... "have you tried turning it on?", "have you tried plugging it in?", "did you drop it in water?". This phone has NEVER been dropped in water and has NEVER worn a cover, my phone is in great condition and would have had no prior reason for failure. I did however have the memory close to full, I was about to transfer all of my photos to my computer, which im sure the past 8 months of family photos are now history. This is a BIG F/UP Apple, this is by far the worst experience I have had with a phone, dropped calls, never any signal (ATT in CHICAGO!), and my home button was extremely tempermental. I am so dissapointed in this $500 purchase I am ready to throw all my Apple gear out of the window. If an issue like this is not responded to I will NEVER buy an Apple product again. I will know more as this transpires, whether or not you can still extract all of your data (documents, photos, contacts) or what Apple is prepared to do about this growing issue.

  • The calendar on my iPhone 4s suddenly went blank and says NoEvents anywhere. What happened and how do I get the information back?

    The calendar on my iPhone 42 suddenly went blank and says No Events. How do I get my data back?

    I've been having the same problem every 3-4 months: the calendar app seems to hang up, I either reset the app/phone or wait it out, then presto! all internal calendar entries have been deleted. Unlike others in this thread and elsewhere, I am not using iCloud.
    Interesting fact: while following the suggestion to hide all calendars, then show all calendars, I noticed that the internal calendar option is MISSING. It's like it just doesn't identify that there ever WAS an internal calendar. Really? Argh.
    Apple Support: are you guys monitoring this? I've seen a few similar postings, so I don't think we're alone...
    Granted, I have more than a few entries - years of calendar/appointment history have been imported from my old Palm Treo. Thanks to slow performance and odd calendar app crashes, I am very well aware that the iPhone's calendar isn't nearly up to the task of handling this many entries, and have been working to get the quantity of entries down. I must be up near some threshold, as response time seems to have improved with several deleted entries, though it was just before the crash+data loss.
    Fortunately, I try to sync with my Outlook calendar nightly, so I do have a backup. However, this type of data loss and instability re VERY painful for those that actually USE and practically LIVE by their calendars. Here's hoping I can remember today's entry modifications...
    One additional complaint: WHY can't I edit a recurring appointment WITHOUT it creating a NEW one? Crazy... For all the things this smartphone does well, it does several things VERY stupidly.

    My problem is that after upgrade to IOS 6.1.3 my iphone not sounds! dont have sounds notifications for whatssap, FB, mails and can't listen music and talk with skype without headphones or speakers! only have vibrator and sound for one coming call!! what can i do!???? Thanks a lot for help me!!!!

    I have a nearly identical problem with my Ipad 3. Mine is the left channel. I've yet to find help, but have found a number of other posts on this and other forums discussing the issue. People have tried restore, reset etc. Also, cleaning the ports with compressed air or cotton swabs. It appears to be a software issue, but no one is sure.
    Along with the original poster, I'd appreciate any help.
    As far as the 'level 6' poster, if you're going to be rude, please don't bother. Hope it was just a bad day.

  • My iPhone 4 suddenly shut of and it won't turn back on

    my iPhone 4 suddenly shut of and it won't turn back on. when i try charging it the apple comes up but then it shuts of and a few seconds later the apple will come up again but my phone won't turn on! it hasnt been water damaged and i have tried holding down the menu and lock button for 20 seconds and even more but it wont turn on. Last night it came on for 2 minutes and then shut down randomly and wont turn on again. Any advice?

    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar at Apple to have the device checked. Sounds like you may have a hardware problem.

  • IPhone 4S Suddenly Shut Down And Everything Is Erased

    My was texting when my iPhone 4S suddenly shut down and reboot. Onced it was rebooted, the phone's data is gone.
    - All contacts are gone
    - All photos are gone
    - All apps I installed are gone
    - All text messages are gone
    - iOS stays in 6 (upgraded from 5 to 6 last week)
    Do anyone have this experience before?

        Hi FrankAtCommunit,
    That definitely sounds strange and I haven't seen any other customers go through this experience. I have listed this experience to Apple so they can advise if they've had other reports.  I suggest that if you had a backup on iCloud or iTunes, you restore your phone to get that data back. Let us know if this gets your content.

    Hi, sallymaesmag. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you are in the Philippines, check to see if the country is changed in the iTunes Store settings on the iOS device.  These steps will show you how to change the preference.
    Change your iTunes Store country
    Sign in to the account for the iTunes Store region you'd like to use. TapSettings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID: > View Apple ID > Country/Region.
    Follow the onscreen process to change your region, agree to the terms and conditions for the region if necessary, and then change your billing information.
