When I turn on my partially charged iPhone 5, sometimes it will suddenly go to 0% charge and shut down. How do I correct this?

I've had my iPhone 5 for about one year with no problems. Lately however, when I turn on the phone when the battery charge is down to say 25% (due to previous use) sometimes moments after turning the phone on it will go from 25% charged to 0% charged and shut down. Other times after the phone has been on for several hours and the charge level is down to about 10% or so, it will suddenly discharge to 0% rather than gradually going down in increments of 1 or 2% at a time. This appears to happen most often when wi-fi is turned on. Any ideas on what may be causing this? I have installed the latest version of iOS7.
Thanks

Hi there brianfromwestmichigan,
I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
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.
Issue not resolved
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
Contact Apple Support.

  • When attempting to update apps on my 5s a different email address comes up that does not belong to me. how do I correct this?

    When I try to update some apps on my 5s phone a screen appears with some else's mail account that has nothing to do with me. The phone dosen't give me the oppition to change the address. How can I fix this?

    Delete the apps, on your phone, that were obtained with this ID, then re-purchase using YOUR ID. All apps are FOREVER tied to the ID used to obtain them, & can only be updated using that ID. They cannot be transferred to another ID.

  • HT1926 When i try to download itunes during installation it says something about a fatal error and closes down. how can i fix this?

    the older version of bonjour could not be removed
    Let's see if we can make some progress with that one first.
    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • When I click on a choice within a website, I get a blank screen titled "Search bookmarks and history". How do I fix this?

    The problem arises for such sites as the TV Guide. Normally, when I click on a listed show, a box appears telling me the details of that program. Not anymore.

    Right click on the hyperlink and select “Open Link in New Tab," that will open a new tab and keep you from getting a blank page like most people get. I don't know why they changed this option. If you don't want to do that every time you can change it in the config.
    1. In Firefox, type about:config into URL Location bar.
    2.Click on I’ll be careful, I promise! button.
    3.In the filter text box, enter the following text string with no quotations :
    ''''''browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent''''''
    Alternatively, manually locate the preference name above.
    4.The default boolean value for the browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent is “true”. Double click on the browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent to change its value to''' false'''.
    5.Close the tab, and the change will take effect immediately.
    Hope that helps some people..

  • When I click "edit" to manage content on a web page, I see code instead of text and images. How can I fix this?

    I edit content on www.fomh.org. Until recently, I could sign in as administrator, click "edit" in the editable area of a web page, and proceed to update text and images. I have been using Firefox to do this for several years. Now when I attempt to do this, I see all the html code in the editable area instead of the text and images.

  • My Idvd is made and works just fine on the computer, but when I try it on my TV it only plays the intro theme, it never starts the actual video. How can I correct this?

    I have made my DVD and it plays fine on the computer. When I try to play it on a TV, the intro theme shows, but I cannot get it to play the movie...any suggestions?

    Hi
    First ideas I got are
    • Use of Cheap DVD brand - I only use Verbatim (due to more organic dye in these)
    • Burn speed not reduced to x4 - I do
    • Use of DVD+R - old DVD-players don't work OK with these
    • Free space on Start-Up hard disk to low - My minimum is 25Gb free space on this one (others of no interest)

  • My Mac book pro gets to the screen with the apple logo with a spinning loading symbol and an actual loading bar underneath it and when the loading bar gets to about 1/2 - 3/4 the computer shuts down how do I fix this?

    Need it fixed asap

    Unfortunately for that it's usually not a quick fix, unless it's a stuck firmware update.
    Hold the power button down to force a hardware shutdown and boot again, if it appears again then it's a bigger problem.
    The bigger problem is that the fsck drive repair at boot can't fix the problem with the drive.
    You will need to consider your off machine backup situtation if you have one or not and how recently backed up are those files.
    If you have no backups or desperatly need to get files off and willing to possibly spend some money to do so (a powered external drive + even $100 recovery software), then it depends upon your computer skill level. If not very good then your seeking the services of a local PC/Mac tech, Apple doesn't do data recovery.
    Once you have a copy of your files off the machine, then your looking at a erase and reinstall of OS X, programs and files from backup.
    If you have a recently updated TimeMachine you can restore from that.
    If you have a bootable clone, then it's easy. Just hold option/alt key and boot from it, grab your files, erase the drive and reverse clone your problems away.
