Phone will not turn back on

The screen was frozen so I restarted my phone, which I have done many times before with no problem. but now it won't turn back on. I press down the lock button and apple logo appears for about 10 seconds then goes back to a black screen. it's been this way for a few hours and I don't know what to do. help.

Have you tried resetting your iPhone?
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
No data will be lost.

  • I dropped my iphone in water and the phone will not turn back on or charge...

    I dropped my iPhone in water and the phone will not turn back on or charge... I know its probably fried and I need it repaired but is there any possible way I would be able to save the information that was on it. Pictures or videos? Most of my pictures were saved on my i Cloud, but some information had not been uploaded like my videos.
    Does apple provide any sort of recovery services?
    Thanks

    Hi jesusdeloera, 
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    If your iPhone was being backed up to the iCloud or iTunes, you will be able to restore from that backup and recover the data that was on the device at the time of backup once you have your iPhone repaired. Please review the attached information about iCloud and iTunes backups.

  • Phone will not turn back on, error 27

         Hi, my iPhone 5c shut down randomly and will not turn back on. So, I put it into recovery mode, tried updating to 8.1.2 with iTunes like 10 times. It always gives me, "an unknown error occurred (27)" I really really don't want to return it to factory settings, because I'm an idiot and didn't back it up recently.
    Specs:
    OS X Yosemite
    Version 10.10.1
    Processor: 3.06 GHz Intel Core i3
    Memory: 12 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Graphics: ATI Radeon HD 4670 256 MB
    Not sure which version my iPhone is on, but I was trying to update it to 8.1.2.
         After going through this page, I went through the vast majority of troubleshooting on this page for error 27.
         If I need to go to an apple store to fix this, that's fine. I ultimately just don't want to restore it to factory settings.

    If you went through the steps in the support document about the error, then the final step is Apple Support.
    Check for hardware issues
    Related errors: 1, 3, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 20, 21, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 34, 35, 36, 37, 40, 1000, 1002, 1004, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1667, or 1669.
    These errors mean that your device or computer may have a hardware issue that's preventing the update or restore from completing.
    Check that your security software and settings aren't preventing your device from communicating with the Apple update server.
    Then try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good.
    Confirm that your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers.
    If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
    What can you see on the screen? Are you able to use the device? Is it just that you cannot update it? If you did put it into Recovery Mode as you indicated earlier, then you have already lost the data.

    Plug your device into the original charger & block in a wall outlet and leave it alone for a couple of hours. Then, while it is still plugged in, restart it by holding down the home button and the power button for 10-15 seconds until you see the Apple, then let go.

  • HT4972 I have a n IPhone 4S.  I upgraded to IOS7 and then tried tp go back to my prevous IOS and now my phone will not turn on at all.

    I have a n IPhone 4S.  I upgraded to IOS7 and then tried tp go back to my prevous IOS and now my phone will not turn on at all.

    I tried to do the same, but couldn't find ios 6. I even tried  the APPstore, to download the last IOS6 version.
    The most problem is the running out of the battery.
    I've checked each app who is "eating" the most power.
    The battery stoped runaway, when I closed the weather service....
    So for now, I will use regular internet service, and probbaly will do to more app.
    Until, finaly, I will find my self with all the applications closed....:-)
    That will be the sign, to replace my phone to anderoid....:-)
    Till now, there is no any sign from Apple to have a glance to our complanes.

  • Plugged phone up to the charger and it will not turn back on

    Last night when i was going to bed i plugged my phone up to the charger and it started to update with the newest software which was 7.1.something? and this morning when i woke up my phone was turned off and will not turn back on, when you attempt to turn the phone on it flashes a screen that has a blue dot and a picture of the charging cable and just says i tunes. How can I fix my phone? I am trying to download itunes to my computer now but not sure it will fully work.

        rhughes18,
    I am sorry to hear about the issues you are having with your device after the update. To fix this you must plug your device into the computer with iTunes open and go through the activation process. Let us know if the device comes back on after plugging it into iTunes.

    Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
    To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

    Connect your phone to itunes on the computer you use itunes on and open up itunes.

    My phone turned off over night and will not turn back on even when plugged in. Is there anything that I can do?

    If you've left the phone plugged in for at least a half-hour with no results, then try holding power and home buttons simultaneously to do a soft reset (settings) only. If that doesn't work, try seeing if iTunes will recognize the device and let the computer charge the device.

  • HT1414 my phone shut off and will not turn back on whats with it?

    my phone shut off and will not turn back on

    Try resetting the device by pressing and holding the home and power buttons for 15-20 seconds until the white Apple logo appears.
    If that does not work, plug it into a wall outlet for about 20 minutes then try a reset.
    If it still will not turn on, take it to Apple.
