My iPhone 5c has completely died. screen black, I have tried reboot but unsuccessful

I tried using my iPhone 5c and found it dead , screen went blue then black. I tried reboot still phone is dead.
I recently updated to iOS 8.0.2.  Any help please?  Ken

Hi
You can try a soft reset holding the home and power buttons together until the apple logo appears, If no luck then you can try booting into recovery mode see below. This will wipe the phone and then allow you to restore from a previous back up.
If nothing works then contact apple or book a genius appointment you should be offered and free repair or replacement if you are still within your warrenty period.
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Hope this helps

    Hi you can take to Apple Store they may Replace with a Refurbished, one but you will need to pay part of cost. Make an Appointment, if you do get Another iphone when you set it up Just use the same Apple, id & password then you will get all your Apps & Data back. Cheers Brian

    my iphone 4 has no more storage capacity, i have deleted apps but its not freeing up any memory, can anyone advise?

    Well if you have 3 gigs of music that is taking up half right there. Pictures and videos also take up a lot of space as well. Another thing is texts are saved on the phone. Try deleting them but texts don't nomally take up a lot of space.

  • Clicked to install software update, now it just has a blue screen. I have tried resetting by holding down on/off and home at same time, apple logo shows up and then goes back to blue screen. What is wrong??

    I clicked on the software update, acted like it was updating, and now it just has a blue/turqois screen. I have tried to reset it by holding down the on/off button
    and home button at same time, and the apple logo shows up and them goes back to the same screen. Please help...

    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 iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • How to restart an iphone that has completely died and can not be recharged

    Today for some reason my iphn4S completely died and I can not turn it on or even recharge it. It was not flat so I dont know why it died. I can not even start it through iTunes. Any comment on ways to start it or is it stuffed? It is only 6 months old.

    You are both right - I had to plug it in and then by holding both switches for longer than normal - it finally started. I have now rushed to back it up with all my valuable info and am still following up with the tech support as it was really warm and did not have any aplications running, so I doubt that it is going to be reliable from now on - and I can not trust it ....
    thanks for your help

  • IPhone 3gs has completely died. totally unresponsive HELP!!

    Hi everyone.. My daughter has an iphone 3gs. About 2 weeks ago it suddenly died! I put it on charge all night and nothing! I held the home button and power button together for 10 seconds, 30 seconds etc etc i tried dfu mode, it didnt work at all. When plugged into itunes, itunes does not pick up the device at all. Then after 2 days it suddenly came on!! I instantly backed it up and restored it from new, hoping that if it were a software issueu, this would have solved it.. Anyway.. it was working fine, untill just now! The same has happened again! I live so far away from an Apple store and i have 3 young children so would find it almost impossible to find time to get to one. Can anybody assist me further, as travelling to an Apple store really needs to be my last resort. I can see this happens to lots of people, but no one ever comments on the solution after visiting an Apple Store and was hoping someone could help. Many thanks for your time

    Call Apple support...if you cannot go to a near Apple store they will offer other service options like normal delivery or express delivery if this is really a hardware issue or battery issue... try to restore as new without the data (apps / music / video) it might be the data causing the iphone not to work...

  • Ipod has permanent white screen. I have tried a reset to no avail. Itunes doesn't 'see' the device and hence I am unable to restore. Any suggestions?

    MY IPOD Touch has a permanent white screen. I am unable to switch it off or reset and it is not recognised in i-tunes thus preventing me from performing a 'restore'
    Any suggestions?

    Try letting the battery fully drain.  After charging for an hour, try the reset and connecting to the computer again andtry to restore.  If the screen is blank (not white) see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow a restore. For recovery mode:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

  • After having no internet for over 24hrs, my IPad has completely shut down. I have tried everything I can think of, including a reset but think that was a really bad move!! Any ideas for how to get my pad back? Simple words please..I am not a pro AT ALL.

      My internet was down for over 24hrs after a storm. During that time, my IPad completely shut down and I can't get it going again.  I studied the manual but couldn't find a similar topic.  I reset it and now it is totally goofed up.
       Does anyone have any ideas or should I just take it to an Apple store and pay??  Any solutions you may have, PLEASE use simple words as I am not a pro, by any means....probably why I'm in this situation.
       Thank you in advance.

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • My iPhone 5c has a broken screen and won't let me swipe. I got a new iPhone 5c, but want my stuff to backup to it. I haven't backed my old one up in over a year because the storage is full. How would I back it up to iCloud on a Dell or Toshiba computer?

    Hi Linda Loo Loo,
    If you have backed up previously to iTunes on a specific computer, even if it has been a while, you may be able to still backup even if you are unable enter the passcode on your iPhone due to a damaged screen. You may find the following article helpful:
    If you have previously synced your device with iTunes, you may be able to reset the passcode by restoring the device:
    Connect the device to the computer with which you normally sync and open iTunes.
    Note: If iTunes asks you to enter the passcode, try another computer that you have synced with. Otherwise, go to "If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer" section below.
    If the device is still disabled, or if iTunes does not automatically sync your device, sync the device with iTunes.
    When the backup and sync is complete, restore your device.
    When iOS Setup Assistant asks to set up your device, choose "Restore from iTunes backup".
    Select your device in iTunes and choose the most recent backup of your device.
    iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode

  • HT201263 Problem is a black screen. I have tried all the recommendation from the support article, however the iPhone 4 screen still remains black

    Hi, My wife has developed a problem overnight after charging her phone. The Problem is a black screen. I have tried all the recommendation from the support article, however the iPhone 4 screen still remains black

    Take the iPhone to an Apple store genius bar for testing, and if it is defective and under warranty they will replace.  Since you say iPhone 4, was this a used or refurbished iPhone? 

  • If my iPhone 5 has a cracked screen, can I still trade it in for the iPhone 6?

    If my iPhone 5 has a cracked screen, can I still trade it in for the iPhone 6?
    I know there is the promotion to trade in for a free iPhone 6, but will Verizon take a cracked phone?
    I would hope at the least to still get a discount if not a straight up trade.
    Appreciate any info if anyone knows.

    You can get an appraisal for your phone here https://www.trade-in.vzw.com/home.php5
    I think to get the best price towards an iPhone 6 you have to have the appraisal submitted and new phone ordered by tomorrow (9/30/14) You buy the new phone on contract price then they email you a Verizon gift card after they receive your phone and make the final decisions on how much to give you. (Suppose to take 2 weeks after mailing old phone in)

    Have you synced this phone, with iTunes, while the passcode was enabled? If so, plug it in, iTunes running, & hit the Restore button on the Summary Pane. This will also erase the phone.
    However, if you have not synced, while the passcode was enabled, you will not be able to do this without first enereting the passcode. If that's the case, try recovery mode:
