IPhone 3G turns off every few minutes with new OS

Greetings all,
Apologies for not introducing myself in advance but I just want to get this issue fixed. I upgraded my iPhone to OS 4 and now the main issue is that when it is not plugged in it will just turn off after a few minutes of being idle. If I actually use it (i.e. keep the screen on) it won't turn off - its only a minute or two after the screen turns off that the iPhone actually turns off. I suspect this is a crash because I have to hold down the Power Button and Home Button in order to get it working again.
However, if its plugged in it won't turn off! How useful! I've read over some topics (and still am reading them, thanks for all the help) but I'm not getting anywhere. I've deleted the ipsw file and re-downloaded it to no avail and am considering trying a new user account on Windows 7.
Are other people having this issue? I was going to upgrade to the newest iPhone and give this to my little sister, but I don't think I'll upgrade now. She's rather upset about this.
Thanks,
Discopanda.

Make a backup, if possible. Restore it as new, if possible. If issue persists, or you are unable to do either of those previous steps, consult Apple.

Iphone 4 turn off every few min

I bought a new iphone 4 and I immediatly found out that it turns off every few min and startup again by it self ..
I don't know if it's a hardware or a software problem !
and I travled away from the country which I bought it from
what can I do ???

even i am facing this problem from last 1 month and the only answer i receive is get it replaced from Apple. I can't understand what people like us should do as we don't have this warranty. Also i have seen end no of iphone users having the same problem but there is no answer from Apple as how come new iphone's that is also in such large nos are having this unique problem of getting restarted in 3 to 4 minutes. It is for sure that they know there is something is wrong with their product and thats why they replace as soon as customer complains but what people like us will do if they don't have warranty....I think atleast Apple should tell us what the exact problem is????????????????????????????????????

Brand new iphone 4 switching off every 5 minutes

I just bought a brand new iphone 4 with Vodaphone - I followed the instructions that came with the device, and plugged it into a freshly-updated itunes and with updated Mac OS software and was asked to restore it to follow my old iphone which was a 3GS.
From then I tried to install the new iphone software - but the device keeps switching itself off every 4/5 minutes and then after a couple of minutes back on, even when plugged into to the laptop...
I finally had it on long enough to start installing the software, but every time it got near to finishing it switched off and on again. I ejected the device and plugged it into a power-source instead and let it charge all day....it is still turning on and off every few minutes, and has about 10% battery even though it's been charging for 7 hours...
It's brand new, and this is very frustrating...any help would be great!
Thanks

If it won't stay on long enough to charge or restore the iOS in iTunes, there's a serious hardware problem. Since it's "brand new", get Vodafone to replace it. If not, take it to an Apple Store Genius Bar for warranty replacement.

IPhone 4 turns off EVERY morning for about 30 minutes

Every morning on my drive to work, my iPhone 4 turns itself off, and it turns itself back on after about 30 minutes.
No matter what combination of buttons i press to reset it or turn it on, nothing happens until it decides it want to come alive again.
When i plug it into the computer during this 30 minute window, iTunes tells me that the phone is in restore mode.
Then between 8:55 and 9:05 it just turns on.
What is this all about!!!

You plug it into the computer during your drive to work? Scary
Take it to Apple or call Apple tech support. Something is amiss and it may be unique to your iPhone.

Why does my Find My iPhone get turned off every time I install an iOS update?

When I installed the 7.0.2 and just last week the 7.0.3 update on my 4S it turned the Find My iPhone service off in iCloud. Has anyone else seen this? Is it turning off any other services that I need to know about?

as far as i understand iCal it is on the "receivers/subscribers" side to deal with email-updates (and not on the "senders/changers" side):
snippet from my Re: How do you stop receiving notifications about updated calendar events? (there is a screenshot as well):
to NOT get email notification about updated events from a shared calendar you subscribed to you have to uncheck "events affect availability" in that calendars "info" (mac os X.7 and X.8: iCal —> calendars dropdown —> right click on the subscribed calendar —> choose "get info" from the context-menu —> uncheck "events affect availability")

My iphone 4 turns off and on when ever i try to reboot and turn off each and every 5 second?

hi there,
my iphone 4 turns off and on in each and every 5 seconds when ever i try to reboot and turn off. i was just trying to get ridge of this things. so culd u help me plz !!!

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 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 4 turns off automatically after screen lock

Hello guys,
my iphone 4 turns off automatically after screen lock, i have to press the POWER + HOME button during 10 secondes for reboot.
And it's like that every time i lock the screen.
Please can someone help me ?
thanks.

Standard troubleshooting steps are reset, restore, restore as new.
Since resetting isn't working, try backing up and restoring through iTunes.

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!

I updated to ios7 and got the set up asst and selected restore from back up.... can't get itunes to do the restore as it wants me to turn off find my iphone, but I can't access anything on my iphone to turn off as I am in ios set up assistant

I updated my iphone 4 to ios7.04 in itunes. In itunes, it appears that all my data/apps/music/etc are on the phone (but I cannot see anything on phone itself except setup screens). I am getting the ios7 setup screen on my iphone. I have selected my language, selected my wifi netowork, enabled location services, and chosen resore from itunes back up. Next screen I get says to connec to itunes, which I did. In itunes, I select restore from backup. I then get a message that I need to disable "find my iphone " "Go to iCloud Settings on your iPhone and turn off Find My iPhone before restoring your iPhone." I cannot go to any settings on my iphone as I cannot get past the connect to iturnes screen! I have also tried not enabling location services and that made no difference. I cannot get to anyplace on my iphone except the ios setup first few screens. I am going crazy, there must be some simple thing I have missed! Any help appreciated!

I found a way to get to my data. So do not need remedy at this time.
fwiw, I changed my ios7.04 setup answer of restore from itunes to new iphone. Eventually that allowed me to set up icloud, then turn off find iphone, restore. Very strange ios update.

My iPhone 4 turns off (crashes) after accesing any apps, It work fine when plugged to charger. I tried all troubleshooting steps suggested by Apple but it doesn't work. What could be the problem and what are the solutions?

My iPhone 4 turns off (crashes) after accesing any apps, It work fine when plugged to charger (power supply). I tried all troubleshooting steps suggested by Apple but it doesn't work. I backed up my phone. I restored it several times. Even I re-installed iphone software. Also I restored it as a new iphone but doesn't work. What could be the problem and what are the availble solutions?

We can't know if there's a "fixture" because we can't examine your phone. But Apple can. Make a Genius Bar appointment and get your phone evaluated.

My iphone just turned off and will not turn back on. What should I do?

My iphone just turned off with full battery. I have plugged it up to the charger and my computer. it will not turn on. It did bring up my iphoto and uploaded my new photos, but besides that nothing. What should I do? I need help!

Hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears (10-20 seconds).

Can't restore iPhone after turning off while doing the iOS 8.0.2 update

I wanted to do the iOS 8.0.2 update. This didn't work and my iPhone 5 turned off. Now it says that I have to connect ti iTunes. I tried to restore it but it always says that a mistake appeared. Now i can't use my iPhone anymore and i don't know what to do

it took me 5 hours to get iTunes to sort my phone out!!
I have an iphone4 I updated to iOS8.2 this ruined my phone. The bloke in Apple store told me to reset my phone. Whilst it was in the reset mode it froze meaning it was a brick! I couldn't get rid of the apple logo and iTunes was not recognising my phone!!
I changed the USB ports and that appeared to work. BUT once my phone was on it did not ask if I wanted to restore from icloud ...... So I've lost all my settings and text and have no clue how to get them back. My iPhone is like new, which is rubbish coz it took me over a year to get it how I liked it!!

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.
