Red screen iphone 5

I´m helping a friend with a problem in his iPhone 5.
At first it was in recovery mode but whn i tried to do the restore in iTunes, drop an error message, so i then do the home and power reset, but when it start the apple screen some text start to appear and some times stays like this and other times go to a red screen.
What can we do?

Sounds like the phone has been jailbroken.
Try a DFU restore.

  • There is an red screen in my iphone 6 and i cant use it

    there is an red screen or only apple logo, and i cant use my iphone 6

    Try resetting:
    Hold both the home and power buttons at the same time until the Apple boot logo appears. No data will be lost.
    Try restoring:

    If neither works, take the phone in for service, it has a hardware issue.

  • I am using a iPhone 6 but it has got red screen

    I am using a iPhone 6 but it has got red screen. Pls suggest to fix it.

    Hello sarzinafromnew york,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    To help resolve this issue where you only see a red screen on your iPhone, please follow the steps outlined below.
    Plug in your device to a power source. If you see the low-battery screen when you plug in, let your device charge for at least 10 minutes (20 minutes for iPad) before using it.
    Reset your device while it's plugged in.
    If resetting doesn’t fix the issue, restore your device.
    If you still see the issue after you restore, contact Apple Support.

    Have a good one,

  • IPhone 6 16GB CDMA flashing red screen after updating to 8.1

    I have the iPhone 6 16gb, Verizon. I just updated from 8.0.2 to 8.1 and now my phone is in a boot loop from apple logo to red screen then black screen, repeating. I am trying to see if there is a solution that does not require me to restore my phone, as I do not have a backup as recent as i would like.

    Hi,
    I had a similar problem last week with my nice shiny 3 week old iPhone 6. I noticed the Apple logo was on the screen, but it did not progress like a normal boot up. I restarted the phone, and it showed the Apple logo, then a red screen then cycled back to the logo and kept looping. I got the phone to the iTunes connection stage by keeping hold of the power button and the home button until the apple logo appeared then kept holding the home button. iTunes recognised the phone, and wanted to restore, but this was unsuccessful  because the phone would keep looping to the red screen and iTunes failed. After loads of Apple support, I was told it was a hardware failure, and like you I live more than an hour away from the store. None the less, I made an appointment with the Genius bods, and they replaced the phone. They said they had never heard of the problem, but really, take a look at these forums and you will see that it is a common problem and I suspect they are keeping it under wraps...
    My issue is that as a disappointed customer with faulty goods, why should i have to stick to an appointment to get it replaced? What other store would you have to do this?
    The "Genius" didn't even want to see the phone powered up before offering a replacement... Oh, and it turned out they didn't have the exact same model as a replacement so they were going to send me out of the store empty handed.... I kicked off BIG time, and they very reluctantly gave me a phone from the sales stock, rather than the repairs stock..
    Not a happy Apple customer anymore, and I feel the more people who know about the lack of service and customer care the better. They need to get off there high horse and join the real world!

  • Iphone 6 crash after update, red screen, looping

    I got the new iphone 6 and ever since the last update my phone has gone into a loop on the apple logo (reboot) mode twice, and all I can do is restore my iphone. I have not done anything illegal to my iphone to cause it to go into this mode, nor have I done any weird updates.. I will simply be using my phone and the screen will suddenly turn red and blank out on me. I can do nothing to fix the problem except for restore my entire iphone. This is extremely frustrating because it seems to go into this mode every time it tries to back up the contents or update. I have no idea how to fix this issue and I don't know anyone else who has this problem with their iphone. I am a new iphone user and I'm tempted to switch back to samsung because of this recurring issue.

    I talked with a Apple Service provider and they informed me that it was either a glitch in the phone when the backup happened, and I had to either restore as new and slowly add back all my information... and if that didn't work I would have to send my phone in to apple so they could find out the physical issue was with the phone.
    Mine happens when it is trying to update, usually around 1 a.m. and my red screen appears no matter what... it will filter out and come back.. etc.
    Extremely frustrating, a phone this new should not be having these types of glitches and issues.

  • IPhone 6 stuck on red screen/apple logo

    Brand new iPhone 6 randomly crashed and is stuck alternating between a red screen and the apple logo.
    Tried to do a full restore through iTunes but no luck. Any idea what the problem is and how to fix it?

    Hello there, markmoor16.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great steps for troubleshooting iOS when it is not fucntioning as expected:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3281
    If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected,  restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on),  reset your device.
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

  • Update to iOS8.1 on iPhone 6, getting a flashing red screen alternating with Apple screen. Can't power off or do anything else.

    While updating to iOS, it appeared that the download was progressing so I laid my phone down. Checked about a half hour later and I now have a continuously flashing red screen that alternates with the Apple screen. I can't power the device off nor use the home button. iTunes doesn't recognize the phone so can't sync or reload.

  • Red Screen on iPhone 6

    Whenever my phone has been off and I try to turn it back on it alternates flashing between a blank red screen and the apple logo screen. It does this for about 20 minutes before it will turn on. Sometimes it will just reboot itself randomly and still shows this screen. Has anyone else had this problem or perhaps know how to fix it?

    Hey lili_88,
    It sounds like you are experiencing an issue that may be related to your iOS software. I would like to recommend that you address this issue by restoring your phone using the information in the following article:

  • My iphone has a red screen, what does this mean and how do I fix it?

    I Left my Iphone on charge when I got home and went to use my phone it had a red screen, no idea what caused it or what if any underlaying problem the phone may have. Any one know anything about a red screen???????

    There are four general causes of this issue:
    1. The computer's PRAM no longer contains a valid startup disk setting when there aren't any problems with the disk itself. This can be checked for by pressing the Option key and seeing if the drive appears.
    2. The internal drive's directory structure has become damaged. This requires usage of an alternate bootable system to perform the repair.
    3. Critical system files have been deleted. This requires usage of an alternate bootable system to reinstall them.
    4. The internal drive has died or become unplugged. This is the most likely case if the computer took a sharp impact or there are unusual sounds coming from the hard drive's location.

  • Error 6 while restoring iPhone 6 with red screen flashing

    I was trying to update to iOS 8.0.2 which failed. Since then, I have been trying to restore my device to the earlier version. While I try to restore, iTunes would say "extracting software" after which it would say "waiting for iPhone" and then I get this "An unknown error has occurred[6]" On repeatedly trying, once I got an instance when there was a scary red screen flashing right after the apple logo that shows when booting the device. And this loop of "red screen flashing" and "the apple boot logo appearing" would continue forever. Anybody else face such problems? Any solut

    Error 1015 is usually a downgrade error. If you are restoring to 4.2.1 firmware then this is most often due to iPhone having iPad baseband. Did you get this iPhone from someone else? If this is the case you will need to search the web for help. Search for iPad baseband, 1015, etc.

  • Iphone 3gs red screen

    My iphone 3gs got red screen.
    Already try to restore to factory default & even restore from backup but the screen is still reddish.
    Is it a screen problem & needs replacement?

    If restoring as new (without using a backup) didn't help, this is a hardware issue.  Take it to Apple or whoever provides iPhone warranty service in your area.

  • My iPhone 5 is booting up to a red screen only. HELP

    does anyone know what causes iPhone 5 to boot to a red screen and freeze?

    Try a hard reset:
    - hold the home button and sleep/wake button down at the same time
    - the phone should turn off then when the apple logo appears release both buttons
    If after those steps the issue remains try backing up the phone if possible and restoring it to factory settings. If you are unable to do this then best option would be to book an appointment at an Apple Retail Store to have the iPhone evaluated.

  • Iphone 5 red screen

    What does an all red screen on an iphone 5 mean?

    Best case would be to take it to the Apple store. I had this same error and they ended up replacing my phone as it was a symptom of it being stuck in DFU mode. I tried restoring the firmware and many other fixes and nothing worked. The genius states that he hasn't seen the red screen before.
