Iphone 5 Flashing apple screen on and off.

My phone is just flashing the apple screen on and off when it is plugged in. It won't turn on when it is not plugged in either. This started happening after I updated the software. My charger works on other phones. any suggestions??

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:

HT4061 found old iphone 4. want to use it for wifi. But it wont let me into my iphone. it says activation required and then plug into itunes, then as soon as I plug it into itunes it flashes the apple logo on and off and wont be detected on itunes.

found olf iphone 4 or 4s in the back of my parents closet. They told me I could now have it back and its been a year since the last time I saw it. It wont turn on unless it is plugged up to a wall plug in. But as soon as I turn it on it says activation required then it says plug into itunes. After I try doing that it plugs into my computer but flashes the apple logo on and off. It wont even turn on all the way when plugged into computer...only the wall. ANY IDEAS?): and no I didnt steal/find this phone. It is mine. I dont have the guts to steal but a lot of people online have accused me.

My iPhone 5's screen will only blink the apple logo on and off but never fully turn on

When I plug in my iPhone 5, it will only blink the apple logo on and off but never fully turn on. I tried to reset and that didn't help, any suggestions.

Hi,
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...

Try:

- 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.

Can I use the "Remote" app to turn the Apple TV on and off?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
The Apple TV doesn't switch on and of, it goes to sleep and wakes up, but yes you can perform these actions using the remote app.

My iPhone suddenly went off and now it shows the apple sign on and off

Hello,
Please help!!!
My iphone 4s just shut down and now its shows the apple image in the middle of the screen on and off. I tried to connect it with ym computer to restore it but it still doesnt turn on. Any tips what to do???
Thanks

Hello Tormento,
It sounds like your iPhone keeps restarting by itself. I recommend first resetting the phone with this process and seeing if it boots correctly:
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
From: Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists, I would next put it into Recovery Mode and restore it with iTunes with the following article:

Power button doesn't work, phone turns off randomly, and then flashes the apple screen over and over until I plug it into the charger

I have the iPhone 4s through Sprint, running iOS6. The power button my phone doesn't do anything, it doesn't lock my phone, and holding it down does not turn off my phone. Randomly, the power off screen will come up, sometimes over and over and over again. Sometimes the lock screen does the same thing, and there have even been times when it screen captures my lockscreen. Also, my phone will randomly turn off even when the batter is around 50%, and then the apple screen flashes over and over (sometimes for hours when I'm at work) and will not fully turn back on until I plug it into the charger. I have not spilled anything on it. I have dropped it, a few days ago, but it has been acting like this for weeks. I also had the problem with my wifi, where it grayed out and I couldn't select it, but my wifi randomly started working again. Any help would be much appreciated.

I have the same prob

My iphone 4 is stuck showing the apple logo on and off. Is it possible to fix without restoring?

After the ios 7.1 update my iphone 4 will not turn on. its stuck showing the apple logo off and on. Id really like to fix it with out restoring it because i have not backed up my data on my computer. Can anyone give me some ideas on how to fix it with restoring if possible??

Try a reset, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo. If you cannot get the device to reboot for you to see your content, you will have to try to restore it via iTunes. See this support document for help with that.http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
You may not be able to back it up if you cannot get it to stay on.
