New iphone4s will not power on

Just got it shipped to me today took it out of the box and it will not come on, changed it for an hour and it still will not power on?

I too had a similar problem.  The brick went bad.
I had to use a Fluke meter to measure the voltage at the tip, as there is no light on the brick, nor is there a functional light on the computer.
Yes, it is supposed to flash a couple of time if there is juice in the wire, but my issue, was that it supplied power, but failed under computer drain initially, until it gave up.  My screen kept flashing when power was on, and power was off.  Effectively, the screen became my power indicator.
Having had similar issues in the past with switching supplies that had a thermal breaker built in, I waited hoping it would reset.  BUT, no light on either the brick or the computer, just wasted my time trying to solve the problem the normal way.  If there was a light, you would know immediately.  It finally gave up life, and never revived.  No light on the brick, and NO indicator light on the W540.
The new brick was made by another vendor, and runs much cooler.  If you want the markings on the broken brick, v.s. the new one, just ask.....
Not acceptable, but stuck with this.....  At the end of the year, someone at Lenovo will get a raise, based on sales.... 
My productivity is going down!

  • Iphone4 will not power up

    iPhone4 will not power back up, it has been charging for hours

    If it needed to be plugged in several times a day to work "fine," then it wasn't working fine.
    If a reset doesn't work, make a Genius BAr appointment and they will run some diagnostics on your phone and tell you the problem, and since its under warranty, will fix it too.
    Make sure it's backed up before going to the Apple Store. They may give you a new phone.

  • Treo 700WX new digitizer will not power up.

    I recently replaced my old, scratched digitizer with a new one.  After carefully following the directions on replacing the digitizer, the end result was a dark screen.  I tried reinstalling my old digitizer and now it will not power up.  Interestingly, I can still use the phone to call out, however, the key pad will not work to connect to incoming calls.  I hear all the normal sounds but no screen.  Can anyone help me or do I have to shell out $$$$$ to Sprint?
    Post relates to: Treo 700wx (Sprint)

    Try a soft reset - remove the battery and put it back into your device.

  • Iphone4 will not power on what do i need to do?

    iphone powered down and will not power back up what should i do

    Hello there, sabrina38.
    The following Knowledge Base article provides some great recommendations for troubleshooting your issue:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    Particularly:
    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 LCIsand 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.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • My brand new iMac will not power up after an update restart, any suggestions?

    Any suggestions on why my IMac will not power up after it done a restart?

    Try an SMC reset and PRAM reset: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3603
    If that doesn't help:
    See if it will start in Safe Boot: restart holding down the Shift key until you see a grey progress bar, type your admin password when prompted, let it continue to (hopefully) boot. Restart as normal from the Apple menu.
    If that didn't help, try booting into the Recovery HD: restart holding down Command+r and choose Disk Utility from the four choices when they appear on screen. Once DU has launched select your Macintosh HD on the left and click on 'repair disk'. If anything gets changed click on repair disk again until you get a clear pass, restart as normal from the Apple menu.
    If you still have problems, give AppleCare a call.

  • New W540 will not power on any longer

    Short story:
    W540 config below
    Arrived, bios 2.09, set intel rapid boot off
    worked for 1 week
    Then it refused to power on
    No indicators when battery plugged in and power or battery plugged in and no power.
    with power, and no battery only the power button blinked 2x. No other response.
    Lenovo's action: return and get a new system. After waiting 6 weeks to get it, this is not what I expected froma rather expensive system. I should have heeded the warnings on this list.
    I see on another list tthe E440, ithink, it was a cmos battery issue. Does anyone know what the issue is with the W540?
    Thanks.

  • New T61 will not power on unless plugged into AC Power

    Hello all,
    I am a new owner of a T61 laptop and so far I love it.  Though, I have found something rather weird.  I cannot power on my laptop with just battery power.  I have to plug it in to power it on.  From that point on, I can run off of battery power.  I have a 9-cell battery.  Once the laptop is powered up, it reads as 100% battery power.  I would really appreciate any ideas or tips that anyone may have.
    Thanks
    Ryan

    Sounds like a bad battery. We received a shipment of 30 T61's in which 17 of them had bad batteries straight out of the box. Exact same symptom as yours. You should contact your Lenovo or the store you bought your laptop from. Last year, Lenovo recalled defective batteries for T60s.

  • My iphone 4 will not power up

    My iphone4 will not power up. The battery is fully charged, i have tried pressing on power and home button for 10 sedc then the power button with no luck.
    when i set the phone up last week i install version 4.3.3

    Plug it into the computer and start iTunes. Hold down the sleep/power button and home button together for 10 seconds, then release the power button and continue to hold down the home button until a message appears in iTunes telling you an iPhone in recovery mode has been detected. See if that works

  • The wifi on my new replacement iphone4 will not turn on so i can do the lastist update so i can do the backup? , thanks

    the wifi on my new replacement iphone4 will not turn on so i can do the lastist update so i can do the backup? , thanks

    If none of the tricks like reboot (hold both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears) do not help, take the iPhone back to an Apple store genius bar and have them test the WiFi module.  You can also connect via USB to a computer running iTunes and update that way.

  • Droid Razr will not power on after new update.

    I have the Droid Razr and attempted to download the new update this morning.  My phone has powered down and will not power back on.  I have done the forced re-start several times & nothing.  The phone starts to power-up and turns right back off.  My phone was fully charged before I attempted to install the update.

    Try holding power + vol up and vol down keys simultaneously (all at the same time).  It should bring you to the bootloader menu, use volume down to go to recovery, press volume up to select it.  An android lying on his back will appear, press the volume up and down keys at the same time, hold for about 5 seconds and release.  Scroll down to wipe data factory reset, use the power button to select it, it will go back to the main menu, scroll down to wipe cache, back to main menu and restart device.  If that doesn't work, try Verizon support on the phone and/or bring it in to your local Verizon store.

  • Brand New Iphone 5 will not power on

    Activating my new phone and it will not power on. called the service provider for customer support and they said to charge for a few hours. I can not see where on the phone it indicates its charging as there seems to be nothing lit up. I have never had an Iphone so i'm pretty lost here. My Droid Bionic has a flashing indicator so even when totally dead it will flash when plugged in. Any help would be great!

    Plug the phone back into the wall charger wait 5 minutes and then hit the sleep button on top of the iphone.  IF that doesn't power it up then hold down the sleep/home button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
    Where exactly did you buy this iphone 5 from?

  • My new ipad just out of the box will not power on. What's the deal?

    I just purchased my new ipad2 a few hours ago. Right out of the box it will not power on. Tried to sync in case that would help but it didn't. I can't imagine what the problem would be. At the Apple store they said it should be charged and ready to go.

    Thanks but it must be defective because that didn't work. Trying to sync it didn't work nor did trying to charge it.  Guess it's another trip to the Applie store tomorrow.

  • HT3046 I have a Powerbook G4 that I have not used for a number of years.  I believe there are photos on it that I want to retrieve.  The unit will not power on and there is no evidence it is alive.  Neither the wall plug in or a new battery helped.  Sugge

    My G4 will not power up.  I installed a new battery and still nothing.  Help.

    Try taking out the main battery and letting the PB sit turned off but plugged into wall power for 24-48 hours. Then reinstall the main battery and try a start.
    When you try to start it, do you get any sounds, like the Mac "chimes" or hear the hard drive or optical drive spin up? If you get those sounds, try holding teh SHIFT key during startup; keep holding until you see a desktop and then lt go the key. Don't try using the comptuer at this point--it won't have all needed extensions loaded. Simply try a normal start to see fi that gets a regular desktop,
    Do you have the system install/restire disks that came with the computer, or retail install disk? Both are bootable. Try booting from one of those optical disks. Hold the c key to force booting from the optical drive.
