Hello Kimbo1991,
It sounds like your phone is not successfully booting even though you have reset the device. I would next recommend attempting a backup and restore to iTunes with this article:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
If you are unable to restore with iTunes I would next put the device into recovery mode, and attempt the restore again:
If you can't update or restore your iOS device
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Regards,
Sterling

    To make sure that this is not software related, set it back to factory settings, without using any backup data afterwards. Set up the rest of the personal settings manually and test the phone. If it still does not work, this is a hardware issue and the phone has to be serviced by Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider:

  • IPhone wont turn on after shut down during update

    i was updating my iphone 4 to the new update the ios 6. i didn't think the update would take as long as it would i had been waiting an hour and it still was not finished. I needed to call people so i figured i would turn it off and contiune with it later. However, instead of turning back on it just shows the apple logo for a few seconds and then goes black. It keeps doing this until i press the home and power button together to get it shut off. I have tried plugging it in a putting it back to factory settings, holding the power button and home key together, charging it and nothing is happening. It doesn't even get reconigze when i plug it into the comupter. If you have any suggestions or something similar has happened please help me. I would go to verizon wireless or something but i am a college studnet where nothing is around for miles and i don't have a car so.... please help i need this to get in touch with people. 

    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    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.
    Check    if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 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.
    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.
    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.

  • HT201412 my ipod touch does not turn on after steps 1-4.  It only shows the apple logo and then turns off

    my ipod touch does not turn on after steps 1-4.  It only shows the apple logo and turns off

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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 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.

  • HT204380 Iphone 4 facetime stopped working 3 weeks ago

    IPhone 4 facetime stopped working 3 weeks ago, followed all possible FAQ and ideas posted and recommended by Apple, still not luck.

    Hi again,
    I tried flushing the phone to its original settings and that didn't solve the problem either... so I decided to call the Apple support.... and I received this, somewhat incredible, response.
    First they've told me that my hardware warranty expired 39 days ago, and that I lost the right to have free help from their hotline 90 days after buying the iPhone. Having said so the asked me to explain the problem, which I did, and then operator looked into the support database to find a possible solution.
    Once she'd found what she tought would solve my problem, she offered two possible options:
    Give back Apple the phone for repairing at the cost of 210 Euros - basically no repairing would be done, just replacing the phone by a new one: I said no to this for two reasons. First, I don't want to pay half the price of the phone for something that might be solved via a firmware update (the hardware works!) and second, because I also had a hardware problem with my old iPhone that was replaced and later on I found out that it had been re-sold by Apple to a third person WITHOUT FLUSHING MY PERSONAL DATA! Living proof of it is that this person managed to contact me on my personal email address to ask me on how to configure her email account!
    Try to apply the steps she had just found in the support database but, and this part is just hilarious.... she wouldn't give me that info for free! I had to pay 35 Euro to have it as I had lost my free-on-the-phone help privileges....***!
    I don't know why, but I expected a bit more from Apple... been a Mac user (two mac book pro's, 3 iphones, 1 ipod...) for a long time now and was about to buy a Mac Mini in the next days... I guess Samsung just found themselves a new customer.
    Cheers,
    Alex.

  • Iphone wont turn on after iOS8 update

    I was updating my Iphone with iOS8 update through iTunes on my laptop it went all through until the end i unplugged my phone as it wasn't doing anything then it come up with iTunes logo and charger logo and now it wont turn on at all, I've tried holding the top button and home button and charging it, nothing is working! help me!

    I eventually got it to work by constantly, over and over again,  plugging the iPhone into the mac with my finger on the home butting until one time it recognised it then I went through the factory reset setting for it to just drop off the iTunes pane and jam on me again. I did the same thing (I know the definition of insanity is trying the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result!) again until it recognised it again and thankfully this time it went through all the factory reset process and updated, losing unsaved videos of my sons birthday party the day before in the process ( I thought they got saved to the cloud too, but apparently they don't!) so thats how I fixed it.........that was last Thursday......Today I thought it would be safe enough to update my iPad and guess what? I have been sat here now for an hour, same thing, the update came down, the iPad was prepared for update, the screen went on to the logo screen the bar got to 100, the device disappeared from the iTunes pane and the iPad is stuck in the restart screen!!!! Its been that way for an hour now!!! I am not a happy bunny!!! now I will swiftly be going over to the iPad forums to see if there is any info there about it or should I just try what I did with the phone???? Either way this *****!

  • Iphone wont turn on it was 90% charged

    iphone wont turn on it was 90% charged

    Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to start. This usually take about 10 seconds of holding both buttons. If still problem, connect to Wall Charger, it may turn ON itself, if still nothing, keep on Charger and Reset, this can take about 20 seconds time of holding both buttons while on charger.

  • My iphone wont turn on after update

  • My Ipad 1 doesn't charge even after 5 hours of charging. I tried pressing the power and home button to reset it (even tried toggling the mute button a few times), but It doesn't start up with the apple logo. Anyone has any ideas what else can I try

    a have tried everyting now a dont have a clue what too do??

    Could be the charger, cable or iPad. Plug the USB cable into your computer. It may say "Not Charging", however, it is charging slowly and will verify that the cable is good. If your computer/iTunes does not recognize the iPad, then the cable is probably bad.
    Try this first -  Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery

    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.
