Phone Just Died

I have the new I phone 4s and the screen just went black. My husband is in ICU and I left the phone off the charger last night incase his nurse needed to call me. This morning it had a bit of battery left but before I could charge the nurse called but the volume was low. After I hung up I went to charge it and the screen was black. It is on the charge now but won't turn back on. All my other Verizon phones would turn on on the charger. I have no other phone and like I said my husband is in ICU 45 mins away. I have only had the phone 2 weeks and I have never dropped it.

You will need to let it charge for awhile before you will be able to power it back on. If the battery drained all of the way to the point that it shut off then it will take a while for it to get enough power to turn back on....even on the charger.

  • Dam phone just died on me...

    I bought the iPhone when it first came out and had no issues after 3 days worth of trying to register it. Afterwards, the phone was working fine with no issues. Last night after watching a video I decided to retire for the night. I plugged it into the docking station and went to sleep. This morning I wanted to put the phone in vibrate and noticed that nothing happened. The screen was black and I was like, hmm, maybe I turned it off last night and didn't notice before going to sleep. So I tried to turn it on with no luck. Seems I need to call apple care today after work;( Anyone else experienced this issue? Just in case I have the latest firmware from apple on the phone.

    I have no idea where you are coming from with this.
    The OP indicated that AppleCare was very helpful and the problem was resolved. How on earth is this not caring?
    If this is indeed a common issue, I'm sure there are "real" technical "approaches" being conducted behind the scenes by the employees responsible for this with AppleCare personnel taking part in that process only by passing on information acquired during phone support, etc.
    I'm not sure what else you expect from front line AppleCare personnel who are charged with troubleshooting problems over the phone and if a particular problem cannot be resolved over the phone, the pickup/return of the iPhone is scheduled for inspection/testing for repair or possible replacement along with documenting information for reports/feedback that is passed along.

  • HT201412 Iphone 4s just died.

    My phone just died. My sleep/wake button is also broken and i have been using assist to turn put the phone to sleep. How do i see if it really is dead and get it turned back on. Its on

    Hey neigh.oink and btacres thanks for the replies.
    so I tried that link you posted, i tried connecting it to a wall plug and it turned back on but there's no signal. it just says searching and the wifi isn't working, as in, it doesn't give me the option to turn on the wifi... also, when i disconnected it from the wall plug it died again and didn't turn back on (despite the battery being 100%)..
    This is really odd because I had the battery replaced last month...
    I still don't know what to do.. it won't respond when I connect it to my laptop to restore it either!!
    It's sad that I'm so dependent on my phone but I feel so helpless without it!

  • My iPhone 3GS has just died

    I was listening to music on the iPod app when the phone just died. It had around 80% of battery as well so it's not that. I've tried resetting (holding down home and on/off button) but no luck. Any suggestions?

    The iOs 5.1 is a huge file that needs to be dowloaded when updating/restoring, your phone hasnt completed the update so its now in recovery mode. Look on the left of itunes, it should say downloads under the store section with a spinning wheel, click that and youll see the update file with a time remaining, wait for that download to finish then try the restore again  and it should work

  • Why would my IPhone just died

    my I phone just died?  whats going on?

  • My RAZR just died

    How can a brand new phone just die? I was texting a friend and set my phone down for a minute to do some work, and when I picked it up again about 10 minutes later, it was dead. The battery had read at 80% when I set it down, so I know it couldn't be that. But it's shut off and it won't turn on. With all that I paid for this phone, I would expect it to NOT have problems like this. And when I tried to use the online support option on Verizon's website, I was told to CALL THE SUPPORT LINE! if my phone was just plain not working. HOW STUPID IS THAT!? If my phone is NOT WORKING, how can I call!

        Hi jamjatho,
    I know how stressing a new phone can be if it just randomly dies. Due to the Motorola RAZR series not having a removable battery it sounds like your phone actually crashed and not truly died. A crash happens if there's too much information running in the background and the phone is unable to continue running. If the battery had charge on it still then just pressing and holding down the power and volume down buttons for 10 seconds will power the phone up when released. I've included a link to the manual where this is described on page 55 http://bit.ly/AhbLjG. This post is a few days old so I do hope that our support has been able to assist you in having a fully functioning device.
    To avoid this happening in the future, you can use the task manager to close out running applications. Press and hold down the button that looks like a house and you will see smaller windows appear. Just move them to the right and they will be closed. Let us know if this helped please.

    Make sure it is charged for about 10min using the adapter, then connect in recovery mode, explained in this article:

    See Here for
    Frozen or unresponsive iPhone
    Try this first... You will not lose any Data...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...

    If that does not work... try letting the battery fully drain.
    Then Charge for an Hour and try the suggestions again.

  • Phone has started just dying randomly

    I have a relatively new phone (3GS refurb activited in early January). I've had no problems with it but two days ago, it just died. Nothing on the screen and pushing on/ off button wouldn't do anything. I finally reset it and that seemed to work. But it's done it again three times since then. It happens when I'm not even touching it. I pick it up and it's dead. Has this happened to anyone else? It's still under warranty and I'm wondering if I should take it to the Genius bar or if this is a chronic problem and I just need to push for a replacement?
    Any tips/ advice would be much appreciated!

    Assuming it's not dying from battery depletion, I'd push for a replacement.

  • Phone completely died, options?

    I have (had) a Droid Razr M for almost 2 years. My 2 year contract ends in July 2015, but the battery for my phone overheated or just died. When I try turning it on, it gets stuck on the Droid Red Eye or the screen stays black. I've made sure it was charged before powering it on, done resets, let the battery cool, plug it in a computer, and everything else I could think of. A phone repair shop couldn't fix it either.
    I planned on switching to the Verizon Edge plan in order to get a new phone. I went to a Verizon Store branch to ask if this was possible, and they said yes, I could upgrade to Verizon Edge (even though I told them my phone won't power on). The only thing I had to do was fix the cracked back of the phone and send it back to Verizon within 7 days of the plan change since my 2 year contract isn't over. So we got the back fixed for $60.
    I originally got my phone through Costco, and assumed the Verizon plan policies are the same anywhere, so I went back there to go through the process of switching to Verizon Edge. I was almost finished until we got to the last step, where there was a statement saying in order for me to switch to the Edge, my phone must be able to power on. This is totally different from what the Verizon branch told us, so we ended up having a sunk cost of $60 and me walking out without a phone. We were very upset and found it ridiculous that Verizon led us in the wrong direction.
    So... my question is: What would be the options (with prices if possible) for a new phone?

    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 it fails, please do it again, 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!
