My iphone4 suddenly shut down.I pluged into a charger it started vibration and got heat up in off mood. I also checked it to genius he said that its battery is ok but problem is some thing else. It is still in off mod. what i have to do?

I  am having a similar odd issue. First of all this summer i took my iphone 4 to apple because my screen had quit. I could hear calls and texts coming thru but screen was unresponsive. I was a month out of warranty so the nice fella at apple gave me a 30 day warranty, then replaced my handset with a refurb. Saturday night at dinner i was on my phine and it died. I plugged it in thinking nothing of it and went to bed. When i wooe up after the charger had been on all night all i had was the black screen with the battery (red) and lightning bolt, meaning it knew it plugged in but still did nothing. So off to apple i go. They said i was out of warranty and the problem (never said what problem) would cost 170 bucks to fix. So i went and upgraded to the iphone 5 ( figured if i'm spending that anyways may as well be on a new phone). When I got home i tinkered with the old one with all the online suggestions i could find. (Cleaning ports, hard reset, putting into recovery mode, and checking indicators for water damage which there was none). Still only saw the battery symbol. I left it alone figuring i can sell off cheap and someone else can repair. Last night for kicks i plugged it in again and it came to life! It is in recovery mode (needs to be hooked to itunes to regain functionality) but showed 100% battery charge. I went to show my bf and realized an issue. If its not plugged into the wall adaptor, it wont turn on. I figured then that if i can get it plugged in and pull it up on itunes maybe it would be fine. When plugged into the computer it wont hold enough power. It thrns on shows the apple for 30 seconds, shuts off. My ending conclusion on my own is that it needs a new battery in order to be revived. Anyone think this sounds like a reasonable conclusion? Or will i be wasting money? If i can get it restored to functional, cheaply i can give to my bf (his pos lg phone is almost toast) or sell it.

    Geneva shop is saying that please bring the phone to our shop with you otherwise there is no otherway to see what happened.
    please help me what can I do?

    Have you tried a Reset...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...

  • IPhone 4 replaced battery 100% charged, but shuts down unless plugged into wall charger

    Hi everyone,
    I've had my iPhone 4 (AT&T) for almost 2 years now so the battery life is rather terrible and I decided to replace the battery. I ordered a battery from PhonePartsUSA and followed the instructions on ifixit. I had some minor issues with the tiny contact piece, but once I wiped it down with ethanol, it was seemingly fine. When I plugged it in I saw the charging/lightening bolt icon in the upper right with an increasing percent. When it reached 100%, I unplugged it from my wall charger. The issue now is that after 1-2 minutes of use on battery (browsing internet on WiFi), my iPhone turns off by itself.
    Also, when I plug it in to my laptop via USB, iTunes does recognize it.
    I would like to self-repair, if possible, and was hoping someone here could point me in a direction (software, hardware, etc).
    Thanks in advance!

    Self repair or a competent 3rd party repair shop are your only options now. Apple won't touch it.
    ifixit is the best resource out there that I'm aware of for hardware teardowns and repairs of the iPhone. It is not considered user serviceable by Apple, and having opened it and replaced the battery yourself, it is no longer eligible either for battery replacement by Apple, or an out of warranty replacement.

  • When I open up a new tab on firefox, the bar shows that the tab is there, but when I click on it, it is the same page as what I have before. When I try to change the page on the "new tab" the original tab changes. Why does this happen and how do I fix it?

    This problem is even occuring as I type this information. I tried to click a "show details" button and it didn't work. The tab "opened" but I couldn't get the page to switch to the tab after clicking on it.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:

  • WinDVD 10 SD suddenly shuts down after inserting a dvd!

    Hi there,
    During the last days I configured the w530 of my gilrfriend (OS is Windows 7).
    After installing the newest updates (Both, from Lenovo and Microsoft) everything seems to be fine, except that WinDVD doesn't work anymore! When I insert a DVD the program shuts down. I tried to disable the Firewall (comodo) and to deactivate Spybot, with no results. Also a clean re-installation with the setup.exe contained in SWTOOLS didn't work.
    Is this a known issue? Has anyone an idea how to fix it?
    greetings,

    Get yourself something else rather than worry about this.
    Media Player Classic Home Cinema and FFDSHOW codecs (google free)

    Just a quick update with a couple more details before I go to work:
    I left my phone plugged into the wall charger all night long but the Apple logo is still blinking on and off. However, when unplugged from the charger, the screen goes blank and the unit does not respond to pressing/holding the buttons at all. Likewise, flipping the mute switch does not cause the phone to vibrate as it normally would, which made me wonder if power was being disrupted somewhere else in the unit before the battery. I just finished disassembling the unit down to the battery, looked for any loose connections etc., and did spot a suspicious looking spot on top of the #5 ribbon connector that I had not taken notice of before in my first disassembly. I'll take a picture of it and post a link for your consideration later on today when I have a spare moment, although I fear the worst.

  • My laptop suddenly shuts down even doing nothing

    so i got a toshiba c660 satellite laptop. everything was good until one day when i was using my laptop, it suddenly shut down. then i try to open it again, while in the starting windows logo, it shuts down again. i tried to open it again, then the launch start up repair command showed up. i tried the start up and i can use my computer again for long hours. but after letting it rest for few hours, the same thing happened again. what could be the main problem? and what should i do in order to fix this? and another thing when i use capslock the key 4 r f and v do not function. but if i hold shift i can type 4 r f and v. is that related to the sudden shutting down? please help me. thanks in advance.

    You're system inexplicably dies, do your rebooted sessions last longer if the system is allowed time to cool down before restarting.
    If the system is immediately restarted after halting, does the immediately restarted session halt after barely a few minutes or even seconds?
    Youre description has the hallmarks of a struggling CPU inadequately cooled by a fan bogged in dust.
    An inexpensive can of compressed air might be the solution and this site along with the rest of the web is repleate with instructions and mundane tips of how to most effectively smot dust from your notebook.
    It isn't rocket science, but it shouldn't be done while the system is powered on, seems obvious but the poker card in the bicycle spokes sound effect from shooting air into a spinning fan also damages the fans ability to remain useful by Christmas, perfect excuse to buy a whole new laptop.

  • Powerbook suddenly shuts down...

    Last night my powerbook suddenly shut down while in use. After I rebooted, there was a message saying the date was set back to an earlier date and keeping that the computer could face unstable condition. So I checked under preferences > date and time but the date seemed correct.
    After that I used my cloned external HD to boot into OS and ran DiskWarrior to see if there was any disk errors. While running that I got a Kernal Panic message (the power sign, w/multi-language), so I shut it down and attempted to restart, but then it had problem booting into the desktop.
    After restarting, the open-source gray screen came up, asked to type in "mac-boot" to boot or power button to shut down, so I typed in the prompt "mac-boot", and then a little OS folder icon showed up with a question mark flashing.
    So I shut down the computer again, took the battery out and did the power-management reset (hold down pwr btn for 7 secs). Then I was able to boot back into desktop.
    Has anyone experienced sudden shut-down on your PB? I think this is the second that has happened on this PB.

    my 15" powerbook has done the same thing, well at least the first part of your message. The computer shuts down suddenly and then I get the error message about the date and time being set to the wrong date, etc. i thought this had to do with the new battery received from the battery exchange.
    Where is this other external battery found. Is it user replaceable?

  • Re: Restoring windows after sudden shut down during updating

    Hi everyone,
    Last night I was updating my windows on my Toshiba laptop, however, my laptop had a sudden shut down during the updating process.
    Now when I start my laptop, I am prompted that a system error occurred and I have to insert my windows CD to continue. I never got a windows CD, and nor have I made a recovery disc yet, so is there any possible way for me to log into windows again? I am using windows Vista.
    Any suggestion would be grateful.
    Thanks in advance

    hi dDk,
    what is the first rules of using a computer?
    *never touch a running system* and of course: *read the f... manual* and *make backups often*
    ok this was a bit hard... but this is a common failure to make an update without saving....
    now lets see what we can do....
    - i assume that there is no possibility to start in safe mode...
    - hdd recovery is not possible...
    - you have neither a systemdisk of vista nor a system backup
    now you are in operators hell....
    - see a servicepartner and ask for assistance, for a small fee he is able to setup your original system
    - get a vista/win7 istallation cd and install it, be aware you loose your hdd backup funktion!
    - try to repair with a "system-on-a-disc" like winpe or bartpe
    - try to make the hidden recovery partition visible to a os booted from cd and run recovery agent from there
    if you killed your recovery partition.... bad luck

  • Safari shuts down when logged into CBS Marketwatch

    I'm experiencing problems with Safari shutting down while I'm logged into CBS marketwatch. This is the only site this seems to be happening on and it's doing it on my iMac and my Powerbook. Both are running OS X 10.3.8. Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks

    Timothy --
    I don't have any problems with that site.
    When updating Safari you should be careful that any third party "Internet Enhancing" apps are still compatible. Programs like SpeedDownload, iGetter, PithHelmet, Acid Search, Safari Enhancer all needed updating starting around 10.3.9. Also Norton apps (with the "possible" exception of NAV) became incompatible about 8.6 or 9.0. Definitely not good for OS X. Virex can cause problems as well. So everybody check to see if you have any of these apps, and let us know.
    Also, here's my laundry list of things I do if & when Safari slows down.
    1. Empty your cache & History settings via the Safari menu
    2. Trash your Icons Folder:
    HD>Users>Home>YourName>Library>Safari -->Icons
    Restart Safari and a new folder will be automatically regenerated.
    (This folder saves favicons of all the sites you visit. Needs cleaning periodically -- or you can change that file's preferences to "Read Only"
    rather than "Read & Write." This will keep it from growing in size.)
    3. You might want to check all three "auto" preferences in Safari. Sometimes those lists gets very long and need pruning. (I turned all autofill boxes off, and have no problems.)
    4. Launch Font Book and check all fonts for duplicates. A duplicated font will have a bullet beside the font family and you can resolve duplicates by selecting the font and at the menu bar, go to Edit > Resolve Duplicates.
    Do this for each font with a bullet next to it.
    If you're still having problems:
    5. Shut down your computer . . . unplug the computer, modem, and router, if you have one. Let everything sit for 2-3 minutes. Plug everything back in, start up your modem & router, then restart your computer.
    You could also look for the CBS marketwatch cookies
    (.marketwatch.com) in your Safari>Preferences>Security>Show Cookies.
    Delete the marketwatch ones and see if the problem goes away.
    If it does, then those cookies somehow got corrupted.
    Hope this helps

  • Thinkpad X201 usually suddenly shuts down!

    Dear all!  
    I have two problems with my Thinkpad x201.
    1/ When I use it with battery and charging then I plug adapter out, it suddenly shuts down. I take it to my office or repair service and do the same but it not suddenly shuts down.
    2/ it has been running fine but always suddenly shuts down in an instant, as if somebody turned off the power switch when temperature CPU up to about 55 degree C (using battery only or adapter or adapter + battery). But I take it to my office to use or take to repair service, it not suddenly shuts down. => Use it at home suddenly shuts down when CPU up to about 55 degree C. Use at office or somewhere else not suddenly shuts down whatever temperature CPU up to about 55 or 60-70!
    I find some topic talk about this problem but haven't got any good solutions. I would like hearing all idea. Thanks all!

    Had the same issue with the X1 carbon. send it in as it likely has a bad motherboard.
