My iphone keeps turning off and powers itself again

my iphone keeps turning off and powers itself again

Hello dantecruso,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
There are some troubleshooting steps I'd like you to follow in the article below in order to resolve this issue you're experiencing.
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.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.

  • Iphone 4 turns off and on itself

    my iphone 4 turns off itself and then on itself too.

    I have been experiencing this problem on 4S for the last two days. I bought the phone BRAND NEW last week, so I'm pretty bummed. I figured I would backup everything on my mac before I did anything else, but every time I clicked backup, my phone would restart and the backup wouldn't complete.
    AT&T tech support weren't helpful and turned me over to Apple support. They suggested I erase all data on my phone and start the phone out as "new", as maybe it was just a bad app I recently downloaded/purchased. Luckily for me, I had backed everything up a day before all this crap started happening. So I restarted everything last night, started to bring back some of my apps, but not all of them! One at a time, to really see if it was a bad app. Just my luck though, I haven't finished getting my phone back to where it was two days ago, and my phone just shut down and restarted on its own. Reboot/restart did not work. FAIL.
    I have to take it to an Apple store and most likely have it replaced. Hopefully you all have good insurance and/or your phone is under warranty!

  • My iphone keeps turning off and then back on

    My iphone 4s keeps turning itself off  and after a minute or 2 it restarts.

  • My iphone 4s turns off and restarts after a few seconds or minutes to establish a FaceTime call. I've tried "Restore iPhone" but the same thing keeps happening. Any solution?

    My iphone 4s turns off and restarts itself a few seconds or minutes after when I establish a FaceTime call. I've tried "Restore iPhone" from iTunes but the same thing keeps happening. Any solution?

    Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    Also, if this only happens with one Wi-Fi network, power cycle that Wi-Fi router.
    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order.

  • Why cant i restore my iphone and why does it keep turning off and on by itself

    hello all
    i just would like to know why my phone keeps turning off and on by itself
    and why i cant i restore it on itunes
    many thanks
    al

    What worked for me, is going to the camera app, switch to video, turn on flash, and record.  Let the phone record for about 10 minutes.  (your phone will probably keep reseting itself) but that is okay, let it reset, and go back the the camera app and repeat.  what you are supposed to do is let the phone sit there and wait for the back to feel sort of hot. stop recording at about 8 minutes and plug your phone into itunes, it should be charging, and once you do so you can then set your phone into DFU mode.  This might not help you, or it will.  I just fixed my iphone today, that had the same problem as you.  so keep trying and it will come back to normal again!  Cheers!

  • How do I fix my iPhone 4 that's keeps turning off and on

    My phone keeps turning off and on. It will show the boot logo and it will dim like its going to the lock screen, but then it will show the loading wheel when turning off. Then the process repeats. I trued restoring but in recovery mode its gets error 21 at the step of getting iPhone ready to restore. Then I tried to do it in DFU mode and it gets stuck in waiting for IPhone. I have tried changing cables that hasn't really worked and I tried updating everything. Please help!!!!!!

    Sounds like you have a hardware problem. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

  • My iphone 3G Backlight keeps turning off and on every 15 - 20 seconds.

    My iphone 3G keeps turning off and on (only backlight) every 15 - 20 seconds when in sleep mode. When I say turning on and off, it is not switch on-off, it is only back light that gets turn on and off. This is causing the battery to exhaust quickly.

    First, try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again.
    If the problem persits, set it up "as new device". If this does not work, do it again, this time not using the backup after the new set up.
    If still no luck, get it serviced or visit your nearest Apple Store.
