My iphone4 turned off with plenty of battery
my iphone4 suddenly turned off with plenty of battery. and my on/off button does not work for me to reset it.
your battery meter is wrong. im running into the same issue without ryhme or reason. my phone was shutting off at 52% like clock work, then it moved to 58%, then finally after being off for half a hour i plugged it in one day and it actually showed 1%. problem fixed.
yet then a week or so later, it shut off on me at 35% and seems to be back to normal again.
the only way i've seemed to fix this is to use the charger that came with the phone or my ipad and have it plugged into the wall and let it say 100% for about a hour past it turning to 100. then when i unplugg it i do a shut down and restart, then i do a hard restart by holding in the 2 buttons until the phone starts to boot up again.
im on a verizon 4s 16g btw. this has been going on for about a month on mine, and just this past weekend my contacts started coming in as just numberes, no names, even if i text someone thru my contacts, the text back to me will come in as a new text under the number and not thier name. again, just randomly fixes it self after soem restarts and reproggraming by calling the verizon number.
lot of frustrations for a 4thgen phone from a company.

IPhone turns off with half of battery
My phone has been acting weird for some time. When the phone's battery reaches half it will turn off and if I turn it on again it wont stay on. But what I noticed is that if I turn on airplane mode this random turning off wont happen. In airplane mode I even turn on wi-fi and I dont get any problems. It's just when the "phone" (or network or whatever) is turned on that it turns off with half of the battery. I already restored it and it didn't help.
If restoring your iPhone with iTunes has not resolved it and you are in the U.S., you can call AppleCare at (800) 694-7466, or make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.

Phone turns off with lots of battery left
My iPhone 4S has taken to turning off with as much as 30% power left. When I plug it in again and it comes back up, it will indicate the same power percentage. I have made it a habit of draining the battery at least once a month and then fully charging it (probably that happens more than once a month), so I feel like I've been properly maintaining the battery. I got this when the 4S came out, so it's as old as the 4S model is. Oddly, if I'm on the phone this does not happen. It will run down to 1%. Maybe that's coincedence, maybe not.
It's quite irritating - isn't this supposed to be the software/hardware that "just works"? - when you're doing something important and this happens. Today two armadillos appeared in our back yard and I was shooting some video of them. I got a low battery warning - I'm not sure if it was the 10% or 20% warning - but then right after clearing it, the phone shut down. I had some good video, but instead of using the remaining power to save the video, the video was just lost. I had never seen armadillos up close like that and was wanting that video to show my son and some other people, but now due to this problem that video is gone. Thanks a lot, Apple!Sounds like there is a hardware problem - likely with the battery.
Make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby to confirm. -
my power button on my iphone 4 is broken/stuck. phone turned off but not because of empty battery so charging does not help to turn in back on. i cannot get the phone to come on. what can i do?
Does the iPhone charge at all or does it stay on the low battery display?

My 3GS turned off with a low battery, and now will not turn on
I have charged it fully, tried hard restarting, tried plugging it into my computer, tried pressing the home button while plugging it into the computer etc.
My question is really about how to contact apple in regards to getting it fixed. This is a replacement phone and it did not come with a warranty (or more accurately, I was too late to renew the old warranty when I got it). However if it had come with a warranty, it would have been within the warranty period (8 months). To me this gives an implied warranty on workmanship and parts. I live in regional Australia which makes going into my local apple store a little difficult, and I don't want to have to pay for tech support for them to tell me that I should try restarting it.
End rant.Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My iphone 4S Black 16 GB with IOS 7.0.4 turns off randomly in low battery less than 15% and also when I am taking pictures from my front camera in low battery of 30%. This is happening very often. Can someone help here with advise? The phone is slightly more than 2 years bought from singapore I live in India
Either your battery is failing or your battery gauge needs to be recalibrated. Start by recalibrating:
When it shuts off charge for just a minute or two, then restart (hold HOME and SLEEP until an Apple logo appears). Deliberately run the battery down until the phone shuts off at 1%. If it shuts off above 1% repeat the above until you get to 1%. Then charge for 4 hours with the wall charger without using the phone. This process will recalibrate the battery gauge.
To prevent this from happening again about once a month run the battery all the way down to 1%, then continue until the phone shuts off. Apple recommends this in their battery help article, but they don't say why you should do it. The have some hokum about "keeping the electrons moving." Honestly! The iPad battery tip gives the correct reason.
If this does not resolve the problem you most likely need a new battery. If you are near an Apple store take the phone in and they can test the battery for you. -
Before I upgraded my iPad mini, you could turn off apps to save battery power by double clicking the control button and then holding your finger on the app button until the minus sign appeared. That doesn't work anymore. How do you turn off the apps with ios7
Now you swipe downward, the app will appear and you delete, keep scolling to the right as in the past. With the new operating system you also swipe downward to get the search bar to find an app

Blackberry Z10 getting turned-off on 15-17% battery level
I have been using Blackberry Z10 for 2-3 month without any problem,but suddenly my mobile is getting turned-off every time its battery level reaches around 15%.
Suggest any solution to this problem.Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain directly connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB, not a cradle):
With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
Remove the battery
Wait 15 minutes
Insert the battery
Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
This has been known to "kick start" some BBs. If that does not help, then redo the process, but this time increase the wait time in step 4 to 2 hours, and perhaps as long as 4-5 hours.
It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:
Obtain an known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happens
Obtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happens
The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem. Note carefully please that "new" and "know good" are not necessarily the same things. While rare, a "new" battery certainly could be defective. Rather, the simplest (and least costly, btw) method to conduct this test is to find someone with an identical BB who has no issues...trade batteries and see what happens.
Good luck and let us know!

IPhone turns off at 25-30% battery left.
My iPhone turns off with 25% battery left and it wont turn back on until I plug it in! I have no idea what's causing this!
^^IGNORE THAT^^
same problem but mine turns off when using camera with 10-45% of battery remaining
shows flat battery animation
will NOT turn back on until i plug charger in, then it turns on immediately showing 10-45% of battery
seen far too many people/posts here about this with NO solution
i had a new battery fitted 10 days ago and its still happening
so its NOT the battery and NOT the firmware
care to explain apple?
or refund me the £300 upfront payment for the device + £38 per month for 2 years!!!!
+ battery replacement fee?
i know its OUTRAGEOUS that im paying this much for a faulty device but my pointless 1 year warranty is no longer valid -
while in email today, the computer began flashing. I had to turn off with button. When I turned it back on, I got the apple icon and the moving loading wheel. It would turn for about 60 seconds and then stop. I turned off again. I now have a black screen.

Do you place the ipod in the dock during the night? I did this once and the other day the battery was almost empty because it kept on playing after it rested in the dock.
