Why does my iphone 4 turn off by itself randomly? I have read many posts on this and there seems to be no solution other than replacing it.

It turns off randomly and sometimes when I try to turn it back on, it doesn't turn on right away. Sometimes it would take multiple tries before it actually turns back on. I have read many posts regarding this and there seems to be no solution. The bad thing about this also is that I don't have a warranty either.

Because there is a hardware problem.
Apple has an out of warranty or not covered under the warranty "repair" price which pays for an exchange at a discounted price off the full retail sales price, or if you qualify for upgrade pricing with your carrier you can purchase a 4S or iPhone 5 for about the same or not much more depending on storage capacity.

  • Why does my ipod turn off by itself and then turn back on after up grading to ios 7

    why does my ipod turn off by itself and then back on after upgrading to ios 7

    Try the standard fixes:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Why is the iPhone 5 using so much data I have read a lot of complaints and I have went over on my plan and never have?

    Why is the iPhone 5 using so much data I have read a lot of complaints and I have went over on my plan and never have?
    I have even turned off LTE. Cut off my cellular data off of apps. Still uses data I switched back to my iPhone 4 cause I had used my
    Data in 2 weeks!

    I have the same problem on my 4S 64G: I updated to 7.1.1 and burned through my cellular data allowance without running anything that ought to be using it. I incurred an overage charge on Thursday, my new billing cycle started on Friday, and I immediately had used 3/4 of my allowance for the new cycle. I typically do not use my allowance in an entire month so burning through it in a day or two twice in one week is very much not right.
    Possibly unrelated or not: last night I was out, did NOT use any apps that should use cellular data, and came home and my phone refused to connect to my home wifi despite turning this and that on and off. I burned cellular allowance while wifi was available.
    It seems like someting on my phone, whether an app or the iOS itself, is using cellular data even while my phone is not in use. All I could do is turn off Cellular Data in Settings but that very much diminishes the usefulness of a phone that has served me well -- without data overages! -- for several years.
    Please fix this, Apple!

  • Why does my Iphone turn off with 20% battery power left

    Hi
    I got my iphone as a gift and so i don't have receit.
    I'm wondering why my Iphone would turn power off with 20% power left.
    I have other apple products  (Ipod 3 and and Ipad 2 ) and i don't find the same issue with my other products.
    Just my Iphone is giving me tha trouble. sometimes i even see i have 40% battery life left and it shut off.
    so i don't know if the % display show up wrongly.
    what would you suggest.

    Charge it all the way up, then let it run all the way down until it shuts off. Repeat this cycle to recalibrate your battery meter.

    Hello! It's possible that a heat related event is shutting it down and if set to restart after a power failure could be the reason it restarts. There could also be other reasons. Tom

  • My iphone turned off by itself and it doesn't turn on

    My iphone turned off by itself and it doesn't turn on, What should i do????

    IIf the battery was completely drained it might take some time before the phone will respond. Wait at least 30 minutes with the phone connected to the charger. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. If the phone starts up let it continue to charge until it's 100%.
    if the broken button will not let you do the reset Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

    why does my ipod turn off when I dim the backlight?

    Probably because you do not have the headphones plugged all the way in. Make sure the plastic on the headphone jack is flush with the body of the Nano.
    Incidentally, you are not running iOS 1.x

  • Why cant i restore my iphone and why does it keep turning off and on by itself

    hello all
    i just would like to know why my phone keeps turning off and on by itself
    and why i cant i restore it on itunes
    many thanks
    al

    What worked for me, is going to the camera app, switch to video, turn on flash, and record.  Let the phone record for about 10 minutes.  (your phone will probably keep reseting itself) but that is okay, let it reset, and go back the the camera app and repeat.  what you are supposed to do is let the phone sit there and wait for the back to feel sort of hot. stop recording at about 8 minutes and plug your phone into itunes, it should be charging, and once you do so you can then set your phone into DFU mode.  This might not help you, or it will.  I just fixed my iphone today, that had the same problem as you.  so keep trying and it will come back to normal again!  Cheers!

  • HT1476 why does my iphone turn it'self on after charging?

    Why does my iphone 4 turn itself back on after/while charging?

    You are right, Apple uses this "help" board to allow other users to help and yes it does avoid hiring more paid employees because every question answered here doesn't need to be answered by a phone person. But, not every question can be answered by other users or not every question is seen by the one person who does know the answer. When that happens, you still have the option to call Apple support at 1-800-275-2273 or you can go to https://expresslane.apple.com and speak directly with Apple.

  • Why does my iphone shut down my computer when i have pictures on my phone

    Why does my iphone shut down my computer when I plug into the USB port when I have pictures on my phone.  My computer says it has found a new digital camera - then my computer shuts down.

    Thank you Lawrence.  I forgot I used to run a Logitech webcam several years ago and I hadn't uninstalled program when I changed the camera to a different one.  I uninstalled the camera and it now seems to accept my phone with pictures onto my computer without shutting my computer down. I really appreciate your help with this problem.

  • Why does my music turn off when I open Safari on my iPhone 5c?

    I noticed that my music turns off when I open safari on my iPhone 5c. What's the deal?

    I figured out this will happen if any of the pages that are open in safari on your phone are open to a page that contains media.  Note this means any page regardless of whether it's the one you are viewing.  So if you go to a site that has media, then open a new browser window and go to a page that doesn't have media and then open iTunes and play a song...when you switch back to safari, the music will stop.  If you close the first browser window and try it again...the music will continue to play.
