Iphone 4 won't turn on unless plugged into charger

My Iphone turned on all of a sudden and now it won't turn on unless it's plugged in. It still has my password on but it only says connect to itunes after I type in my password. When I plug it out it turns back off and when I plug it into my computer the apple logo just flashes on and off. Itunes also doesn't sense my iphone. I've tried holding the home/sleep button + Home button while it's plugged in the computer for 10 secs a few times then I tried it for 15 secs a few times then I tried it not plugged it but it still won't it still won't go into recovery mode. What should I do?? Should I just take it in for service?

Charge it for 30 minutes with the wall charger. Then hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons to reboot the phone. If it stays on when unplugged connect it to your computer and Restore it. If it doesn't you need a new battery; $79 at an Apple store, installed.

HT4972 My ipods screen is black and wont turn on unless plugged into the wall

My ipods screen is black and wont turn on unless plugged into the wall not the computer but when i plug it into the computer and put it in DFU mode it wont restore there is an error 3194 and error 1602 and nothing i do helps

Here's what I found about error 1602:
Error 1600, 1601, 1602: Try the following steps to resolve this error:
Ensure proper USB isolation troubleshooting has been performed, and test with a known-good cable.
Follow the steps listed for Error 1604.
This error may be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps in this article for details on troubleshooting security software.
Error 1603: If you receive this error and the iOS device is not automatically placed into recovery mode, it may be necessary to do so manually. Refer to iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to restore for steps on placing iPhone into forced recovery mode. Also, remove the IPSW and attempt to restore again. If you do not want to remove the IPSW in the original user, try restoring in a new administrator user.
Error 1604: This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, uninstalling and reinstalling USB ports, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections, device not recognized properly, computer won't recognize a FireWire or USB device). If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
This device is not eligible for the requested build: Also sometimes displayed as an "error 3194." If you receive this alert,update to the latest version of iTunes. Third-party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue. To resolve this, follow Troubleshooting security software issues.
Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to perform unauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. First you must uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer, then edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from the hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect. For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart. Also, using an older or modified .ipsw file can cause this issue. Try moving the current .ipsw file, or try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new .ipsw.
Error 3194 is also seen when somebody is trying to restore jailbroken devices.

My mac os x wont show a app store.....HELP PLEASE

Check your Downloads folder for this file:
MacOSXUpdCombo10.6.8.dmg
Double click that file then follow the instructions.
It's only a 215MB file so it shouldn't take long to download depending on your internet speed.

HT5463 Hi I am on an iphone 5 IOS7 and when I look at the 'Silence' setting at the bottom of the Don Not Disturb' screen - then even though all of the settings on that screen are off i.e. not green - the 'Silence' -'Only when iPhone is locked' setting is

Hi I am on an iphone 5 IOS7 and when I look at the 'Silence' setting at the bottom of the Don Not Disturb' screen - then even though all of the settings on that screen are off i.e. not green - the 'Silence' -'Only when iPhone is locked' setting is tickedP

Chris thanks for your reply, if none of the Do Not Disturb settings are switched on - then am I right that this setting will have no effect. I.e. I want my phone to ring at all times, so have turned off all of the do not disturb settings

My sons iphone will not come on unless plugged into wall charger. even then wont work

my sons iphone will not come on unless plugged into the wall charger. even then when the screen finally comes on it has the wrong date and just says searching. wont do anything.

What troubleshooting have you tried? Try a reset, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone should reboot. If it does not, then you need to try and restore via iTunes. Try connecting the phone to the computer and iTunes and see if it is recognized. If not, you will have to force it into Recovery mode and restore. See this support document for that help. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

Can I hide camera function when iphone is locked?

I've owned every iPhone model since the original and have never needed to passcode lock my phone. Not worried about it after all these years. I'm the only one who has ever used it and I don't leave it lying around anywhere. It stays in my pocket when not being used.

Can we import photos from iphone to windows PC when Iphone is locked with passcode?

Hello,
I am using Iphone 5 running IOS 8.1.2.
I recently connected my Iphone to my friends windows laptop to import the photos and videos.
I observed a strange behaviour. I was able to import photos even when my Iphone was locked with passcode.
Can anyone explain me why and when can this happen?
I personally felt, when Iphone is locked with passcode import should not happen.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
Best,
Kuldeep

A small edit to my above question.
For importing photos I right clicked on my iphone in windows explorer and selected "Import photos and videos" contextual command.
I didn't open it to see DCIM folder.
Hope I receive some information on this.

My iphone wont fully turn off unless plugged into the wall charger! help! it is causing battery drains

my iphone has been experiencing poor battery life. i have restored it twice now, and nothing seems to be helping. i am wondering if the fact taht the phone wont shut down has something to do with this problem. i cant get it to fully turn off unless it is plugged into the wall! help! i have tried restarting it holding down the hold and home button nothing works.

Restore as new, does the problem continue? If so, take it to Apple for evaluation.

My phone sometimes wont show voice mail,sometimes wont ring just shows missed calls,and some text messages wont show received till next day. Can anyone help?

Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Try reseating or replacing the SIM card.
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).
Has any of the above been tried?

If you mean you didn't backup or sync your phone, everything on it will be lost when you get a replacement unless the techs are able to do this. Apps can be re-downloaded.
