My iphone 4s keeps freezing and turning itself off and the wifi option is now greyed out

My iphone 4s has been freezing and turning itself off and on for a few weeks now. I have reset it to factory settings and reinstalled everything, have updated the operating system but nothing seems to work. It was having problems connecting to wifi and when I tried to access the settings it freezes and can't find any connections. I have just updated the phone to 7.1 and now the wifi option is completely greyed out.

Your battery may have completely run down. When you connect it to power, leave it. It can take even up to an hour to get enough charge to get it to a useable state.
Although, I believe even fully drained, you should see some kind of indication on the screen of charging in progress, but it's very dim.

My Iphone 4 keeps trying to turn itself off and also takes random screen shots. I think it might have something to do with the Sleep/Awake button but any help would be greatly appreciated.

My Iphone is constantly trying to turn itself off and also taking screen shots when I'm not touching it. I think it may have something to do with the Sleep button but would welcome any suggestions. I have already restored it to Factory settings but it didn't help.
Thanks,

Did you try to set it up as new device, without using the latest backup?

When you restore, you can restore from backup or as new.
Did you or did you not restore it?

Phone freezes and turn itself off when the "Ph. se...

I got a Nokia n97 mini 2 weeks ago and the phone works great except that sometimes it would turn itself off and when I turn it back on it lags and freezes. I notice every time the phone freezes and turn itself off when the "Ph. setup" in the App menu is running. Is the device updating itself? How can I make it stop? Everything freezes as soon as the Ph. setup starts running.
I try waiting it out (if the phone is setting something up it shouldn't take more than a few minutes) but I leave it there for several hours and it's still frozen.
Thanks for reading -sorry if my English sucks-

FYI: Siri can only do certain things when locked. It will not do anything that requires the iPhone to be unlocked (without first unlocking the iPhone).

Hi there my iPhone 4 has started to turn itself off and won't turn back on until it's charging

As the title states.
Suddenly my I phone 4 has decided it just wants to turn off and only comes back on occasionally. It is fully charged but says its empty, but not all the time. When it's plugged in its ok.
Please help as I have no contact to anyone.
Thanks

You can either have Apple do it at the store, or you can find a repair shop local to you that does it.   If your phone is out of warranty, you'll save money going the local route.
Call up and ask for prices.   I have no idea where you live or what country you're in.
on the iPhone 4, it is VERY easy to change the battery if you have any mechanical skills.   Takes about 10 minutes.   Videos on youtube.

absolutely that is frustrating. if the battery life is fine there could be two things software or hardware. to find out if your back up your information in itunes and import pictures and then restore the phone as NEW then you can test it out. if it is still shutting off it is hardware related

My iphone 4 has turned itself off and I cant get it back on, it had a full battery before it cut off.

My Iphone 4 has just turned itself off and I cant turn it back on. It had a full battery before it cut off so its definetly not the battery, however I have found recently that the battery has been running out really quickly. any ideas what to do? Thanks

Try resetting your phone:
Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release.

HT1296 Since I downloaded iOS 7, my iPhone is constantly turning itself off and the battery useage is twice what it used to be. I want iOS 6 back! How do I uninstall iOS 7?

I downloaded iOS 7.0.2, and now my iPhone 5 keeps turning itself off and the battery useage is twice what it was. I want iOS 6 back! How do I uninstall iOS 7?>

So, after it charged and was still plugged in, I deleted the Exchange account and then reset it holding down the sleep wake buttons until the apple logo appeared. I also changed the limit on my emails to 3 days instead of 1 week. It turned on, so I turned it off and let it charge overnight. This morning, it stayed on for 3 whole hours and then shut itself off again. I had to try 5 times to get it to come back on. Now, a message appeared that Exchange cannot verify a server, I can't see the full name of the server anymore, but it is *.hotmail.com GlobalSign Root CA from Microsoft. So I'm selecting Accept to see what happens. I'm very discouraged, I need my phone to be reliable for my work. It was reliable for 11 months without one problem, and now since I downloaded iOS 7, it hasn't been on for one full day since.

My iPhone 3GS keeps turning itself off all the time for no reason every time I put it on silent or just get a Facebook message I have a broken sleep/power button anyone know how to fix this problem?

My iPhone 3GS keeps turning itself off all the time the power/sleep button dosent work so it's quiet annoying having to plug it in all the time dose anyone have a fix for this?

The "fix" is to get the phone repaired. There's no magic solution for a broken phone.
Bring your phone ant $149 to Apple for an out of warranty replacement, or find a 3rd party repair shop near you.

HT4528 the camera on my iPhone 4s color is all weird and the shutter keeps opening and closing trying to fix its self but cant. I rest my phone and turned it off and back on again.. how do i fix this. I only had the phone maybe six months.

The camera on my iPhon 4s is not working correctly. It is colored all strange and the shutter keeps opening and closing trying to fix the problem but it cant. I have already reset my phone and turned it off and on again. How do I fix this??

If resetting the camera app doesn't work you can try restoring your iPhone's software. The entire process takes about an hour to an hour and a half. Make sure you do a backup. Make sure you do a backup.

N97 keeps restarting itself and turning itself off...

Hi everyone,
A few months ago I bought an N97 from England and I have some very annoying bugs and a few questions I’d like to ask.
First of all, the phone keeps restarting itself (it is now up to 5 times a day if not more!!!), and at night it even turns itself off (I mean I wake up in the morning and the phone is off).
The other bug is that I cannot exit applications through the “open apps” menu (which is accessed by long-pressing the menu button). When I try to exit an application through there the phone crashes.
I did hard reset, soft reset, formatted E drive (each of those several times btw) and none of this helped. I took it to the nokia care center (the only one in Israel BTW!) and they said that they’ve never heard of those problems and it shouldn’t happen, so they reinstalled my firmware. After that didn’t work, I came back to them and they tried reinstalling the firmware again (they thought something maybe went wrong last time) and that didn’t work either. So I gave them my phone and they had it for 2 weeks during which they tried solving the problem themselves (not sure If that’s true) and after they failed, they sent it to the nokia factory\manufacturer lab in Israel (or at least that’s what they told me). In the first few days everything seemed ok and the phone did not restart itself (that menu bug was still happening) but after less than a week the phone restarted itself again. So I called them and they said it’s probably a bug in the V20 software and they reported it to nokia head quarters in Finland (yeah right…). Anyways… the “restarting itself” bug frequency was decreased substantially for a while, but now it’s back to restarting itself several times a day and turning itself completely off at night (it even happened to me during the day once or twice already-which never happened before).
I’ve read that hundreds (if not thousands) of other N97 owners have those problems too but I couldn’t find a solution. Anyone have any ideas???
Now… during my search in different forums I searched the one in the nokia Israel website and I accidently came across a replay that said that the “exit an app through the open app menu” bug only happens when the phone language is set to Hebrew! And guess what?! HES RIGHT! I changed the language of my phone to English and I have successfully exited the music player through the “open app” menu without the phone crashing! WHAT THE FU** IS GOING ON?! As I said, I’ve came across many other users who have this bug and they obviously don’t have Hebrew on their phone. How does that make any sense?!. Although I have no problem with English I’m more comfortable with my phone language being set to Hebrew since I got used to the buttons locations and now they are all “backwards” which is really annoying! (for example just now I wanted to put a call on loudspeaker but hung up because the 2 buttons have now switched sides).
Anybody knows anything about those bugs and\or how to fix them?!
Now… I would like to ask something:
I’ve noticed that my C drive only has 35MB of free memory. So I went into “memory details” and I see that 12MB is taken by “SIS applications” and 25MB (!!!) is taken by “other files”. I should mention that I put all my files and install all my apps on the E drive when given the choice (only apps from ovi store don’t give you that choice).
Is there any way I can see which applications and files (if it’s even possible for individual files) are installed on C so I can delete some of them? When I go to “phone memory” through “file manager” and I manually open all the folders there (games, images, installed files, nokia, other, sound files and all those), they are all empty. I mean I have a few files on C but they are some sort of text files and they weigh pretty much nothing… most of the folders are completely empty (some have 1 or 2 of those text files). Please help me!
Since I’m already posting this message, anybody knows anything about V21?! Ive read about some update that’s coming out on the 28th, but when I asked nokia care about V21 they said they don’t know anything about it. Anybody has any information regarding V21?
Thank you!

1. Did this start shortly after you installed a particular application?
-no. in fact, just to make sure, after the nokia people re-installed my firmware (which deleted everything from the C drive) i formatted the E drive and did not install anything to see if it still happens. sure enough after 2 days, the phone restarted.
2. Did this start after a firmware update?
-yes. it never happened before the V20 version. (or at least i havent noticed that it happened).
3. Have you tried reinstalling the firmware through Ovi/PC suite?
-this is how i installed it the first time. altough everyone says its bad and you shouldnt do it and you should go to the nokia center and they will do it for you.
about this... i dont understand why nokia is giving us a tool to update our software for free... but then say "you shouldnt use that tool. go to your nokia care center and they will do it for you" which wastes valuable time and money (not surprisngly... my warrenty doesnt apply in Israel so i have to pay for that kind of stuff). nokia is the biggest cellphone company in the WORLD! why cant they give an international warrenty?!
*any idea why the "exit an app through open app menu" bug is only happening when the phone language is set to hebrew?! i mean thats very bizzare...
*so the update on the 28th is not the full V21 i understand...? will it atleast fix the self restarting and self turning off problem?! i mean i can handle not exiting an app through the menu (unless an app gets stuck and then its just annoying because you cant close it). but i cannot have a phone which turns itself off and restarts itself... that is just ridiculous.

Thanks for your help. I tried plugging it in but nothing happened, I actually still had battery power left. I was able to solve my problem by holding down the power and home buttons, which reset the phone and got it started again.
Thanks for trying

If you have restored to factory settings and started as new, there is nothing more that you can do on your own. Make an appointment at an Apple Store and ask them for help. You might have a hardware problem and the Apple Store techs will be able to determine that.

My iPhone turned itself off and won't come on or charge, after I already restarted it once

My iPhone 5s has turned itself off and won't come on or charge again I have already restarted it by holding the on/off switch and home button and it come back on and was working fine, but after an couple of hours it's turned itself back off again!! And won't let me restart it again. I don't know what's caused it as it was working fine yesterday and I hadn't dropped it or gotten it wet, what else can I do??

A phone that is turned off wont receive calls. You could try to do a couple things: plug it in (even though it is fully charged), press and hold the power button down extra hard. Press and hold the power AND home buttons extra hard. Take it to the apple store.
