My iphone 4 turned itself off and will not turn back on! Ive tried everything can anybody help me?

Hi,
My iphone was working on Friday night and when I woke up it had turned itself off!
I left it a few days and it worked again for about 30 mins and has turned back off again! Ive checked the water sensors which are fine, held both buttons down together for over a minute, nothing, plugged it into the charger, nothing, and onto itunes which shows a message to say "your iphone is in recover mode". Can anyone suggest anything else I can do as its been 3 days now!!!
Thanks

You can try to press the home button and power button and hold them for around 15-20 seconds. This will perform a soft reset similar to pulling the battery. If that doesn't help you may need to restore it.

    I had been using it for awile, updated, sync. I unhooked it from my PC and 5 min later is was off and will not come on or respond at all. It is pluged into the wall now and still nothing. What do I do?

    The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
    Restart..  Reset..  Restore from Backup..  Restore as New...
    Try a Reset of the Phone... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the Phone Off...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 10 - 15 Seconds...
    Turn the Phone On...

  • My iphone has switched itself off and will not turn on

    Help!!!!, My I phone has switched itself off for no apparent reason today and now refuses to switch back on again!, hit has been working fine and is less than a year old.

    Reset the iPhone by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button and the home button for 20 seconds (maybe longer) until the Apple logo appears, ignore the red slider.  Then turn back on. You won't lose any data doing the reset.

  • HT1688 My Iphone 4 randomly shuts itself off and will not turn back on unless I preform a hard reset.

    I have an Iphone 4 that will randomly shut itself off and then not come back on unless I preform a hard reset.  Also, it sometimes freezes up and needs to be reset in order for the device to begin working properly.  I have tried to back up and restore using itunes on my computer but I still have the issue.  Can someone shed some light on this issue for me and let me know how to correct it?  Thank you.  Randy.

    Try to set it up as new device, this time without using the latest backup. If this does not work, contact Apple to get it checked.

    My iPhone4s turned itself off and will not turn back on unless it is charged at all times. I need help and answers please.

    And we would need more info. "will not turn back on unless it is charged at all times." is pretty obvious: the phone will obviously not turn on unless it is charged.
    Describe your problem clearly.

    how would you recommend that I try turning the phone back on, yes I have to put the power back to it and it still will not turn on?

    Hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.

  • Iphone 4 just switched off and will not restart

    My iphone 4 just switched itself off and will not turn back on again, it has not been dropped etc as it was working fine earlier in the day
    can anybody offer advice or help

    Connect to Wall Charger for 10 minutes, it may come on itself. If still off, keep on Wall Charger and Reset, Hold both Home and Power buttons until the iPhone begins to start. This can take about 20 seconds of holding both buttons while on charger.

  • My phone just turned off and will not go back on. my top lock button has been broken for over a year. Help!

    my phone just turned off and will not go back on. my top lock button has been broken for over a year. Help! I have tried plugging it into wall unit and computer but my home button just doesnt do anything!

    It seems that year long delay from having your lock button repaired has finally caught up to you.  Sounds like you have some damage to your phone that requires repair/replacement.  Take it to a Apple store or contact Apple Tech Support.

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
