Why does my iPhone 5c go to black apple screen when I unlock it?

When using my messaging, if my phone locks when I unlock it, it goes directly to the black apple screen that usually appears when turning my phone on. Then it will eventually go back to my messages. Does anyone know why it's doing this and how to fix it?

Hi MrsBarnett10,
If you are having an issue with your iPhone not unlocking normally while using Messages,   you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
iOS: Force an app to close
Next, I would try restarting the iPhone -
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

  • Why does the iphone say no sim in activation screen when i have inserted the the iphone original sim

    i have bought a atnt locked phone, i try to activate it but it says no sim.when i insert the atnt original sim, nothing happens and it still says no sim. What is the problem with it? can a activation sim be used twice?

    What is the problem with your sim tray? If you tried to get your sim out using something and accidentally scratched the sim chip, your sim chip is broken and it is not free to fix. On the other hand if other sims work, you can call AT&T and ask for assistance from them.

  • Why does my iphone come up with a different email when updating apps?

    why does my iphone come up with a different email when updating apps?
    Everytime I go to update my apps some other persons email or AppleID comes up and I have to cancel.  its annoying enough to have to update all the time but now I have about100 update notifications (don't judge, you probably have a ton of apps too..haha) that are sitting idol, what's up how do I fix?
    thx

    p.s. not updating to iOS6 yet

    I'm sorry Allan, I should have clarified, your answer is improbable (well the first part atleast).
    The apps I have had since the first week of purchase of my iphone back in 2011,  I have not added any apps until 2 months before the last software update.  This starting happening when the new software was implemented but I have not updated to iOS6 yet.  Unless this person was able to hack into my account & transfer them to their account, I do not see how that is possible.
    Prior to seeing this other AppleID, I have a popup to prompt me for my AppleID each time I download content.  Each time I would see mine and enter my password.

    It could be for any number of reasons. Since you do not identify the computer OS you use, here is information for both.

  • Why does my iPhone 4 always say "sync will resume when "... MacBook Pro" is available??? i can't seem to sync over wifi

    why does my iPhone 4 always say "sync will resume when "... MacBook Pro" is available??? i can't seem to sync over wifi

    Try the following:
    1. Connect the phone to your computer using the USB cable and let it sync.
    2. Uncheck "Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi"
    3. Click Apply
    4. Check "Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi"
    5. Click Apply
    6. Quit iTunes
    7. Disconnect the phone from the USB cable
    8. Make sure your phone is connected to your Wi-Fi network
    9. Open iTunes
    iTunes should see your iPhone and connect to it. Go under Settings > General > iTunes Wi-Fi Sync and see if you can initiate a sync.

  • Why does my iphone only send one picture multiple times when i select multiple photos to send?

    why does my iphone send one picture multiple times when i select multiple photos to send (via message or email)?

    Are you sending via Camera itself?
    That is, selecting a picture, then select forward link symbol from bottom left
    then select another picture,
    Each time make sure you see the blue check mark at bottom right of each selected picture.
    The number of " # Photos Selected" should be displayed at the top.
    Then select Mail or Message and transmit.

    that maybe a hardware or software issue,

  • Why does the iphone say it has 16 gb but when i plug it in it shows 26.2 gb with only a capacity of 13.4gb?

    ok guys i have done my fair share of reading and i am so lost. on my box it says i have a 16 gig iphone 4 verizon white. my question is everytime i plug my phone in it pops up with a little tiny AutoRun icon and i hit open files. well it shows that i have 13.4gb of 26.2gb. but in iTunes it only shows my phone with 13.4 with 12 available for apps and music. why is it that my phone realy has 26 gigs and i can only access half of that?
    Is my phone realy using 13gb just for software? that is way to much for me. any body else see this, what about any fixs or what not?

    There's no way a 16GB model phone has more than than capacity.  I have no idea what you mean by AutoRun icon.  Is that an app you downloaded?  Did you jailbreak?
    The "advertised" capacity of all storage devices is based on a decimal definition of "Gigabytes" where 1 GB is defined as 1,000,000,000 bytes.  However computers see and calculate storage based on binary definitions where 1 GB = 1,073 742,824 bytes.  Thus a 16 GB "decimal" device is only 14.9 real, binary gigabytes.
    Also, there are additional loses due to formatting overhead and the iOS.  RAM memory is separate and not used from the supplied flash disk.

  • Why does my iPhone 4s start locking up or flashing when I'm typing a message?

    I have an iPhone 4s with an updated iOS 7. Every since I did the iOS upgrade, my iPhone intermittently "locks up" when I'm typing a message, text or email - by locking up, I mean it won't display the letter I am trying to type or when I try to backspace or enter something different, the screen flashes and will not do anything.  Anyone else having this problem?

  • Why does my Iphone 3 keep opening the ap store when I use Safari?

    This just started happening.  My phone keeps opening up the app store by its self.  This happens when I am on a web site.   I will then show I have 2 apps to update, but nothing needs updated.   I have closed all open apps, cleared history and cookies and data in safari, and reset the phone.  Nothing works.  Can someone please help?

    there should be a way to prevent such behaviour.
    There is. You can go to Settings -> Safari -> Advanced and turn off JavaScript. That will break many websites though. Or, you can simply stop visiting the sites that are doing this, which would be my choice.
    Alternately, if this is happening with every single site you visit, you may be having some problems with your network. As an example of the sort of thing I'm talking about, see:
    Brazilian internet service provider hacked
    Although the following page is written for Mac users, and thus some of its advice is not appropriate for the iPhone, you can still find some good information on such problems here:

  • Why does my iphone and ipad keep saying apple ID disabled but i can log in to the itunes store on my laptop?

    i can't download or update free apps on my ipad or iphone. i can log in to my i-store account on my laptop and download stuff.  when i try on the iphone or ipad i keep getting apple ID disabled message. i had to enter in my account and new password to get to this community site so the password is working. but when i enter the updated password on the iphone or ipad i keep getting...apple ID disabled.  thanks

    When you try to update the app, is the Apple ID that comes up the same as the Apple ID in Settings>iTunes & App Store?
    Have you tried any troubleshooting steps? e.g. log in on another device, reset password etc.

  • Why does my iPhone 5c not show any wifi/internet when on wifi screen?

    When I go to "Settings" and then go to "Wifi" it trys to load the available wifi connections, but it doesn't load anything. I went on a 3-day camp and there was no wifi, so, I put on airplane mode for most of the camp to play my games and then when I go to my cousin's house no wifi shows up. After that, I came home and no wifi showed up again. Then I searched up on how to fix it and I did everything that was listed, turn cellular data on and LTE on, reset network settings, and restore my iPhone to last backup, and nothing happened it still doesn't show up. If you guys know any way to fix this, reply to this thread or discussion please.

    No... FaceTime is permanently removed from devices sold in certain middle eastern countries.  There is no way to install it regardless of where the device is being used.
