Iphone won't turn on and charge! Won't connect to itunes either?
My apple iphone4 'Crashed' while i tried to crop a picture. I've been using it pretty much all night, battery was 100%.It won't turn on, connect to itunes or charge. I'm really scared.right now i touched it, and its hot. It wasn't. Does this mean anything? Usually it gets a little hot when i charge it and use it too much.
Could I maybe drained the battery?
Should I go and get it repaired? I have no idea what's happened.
Also, Where can I get it repaired? How long will it take? And how much will it cost? (i'm not on contract) I'm really scared, i need to sort it out.
Should I just leave it for a few days and maybe it will come on itself?:/
I think you should wait for it to cool down completely befor doing anything. If it still has the same symptoms even after cooling down you should probably take in to apple and let a representative diagnose it. Also you can go to apple.com and search for similar symptoms.
There are only three reasons your phone might be overheating when it's not due to the environment:
Hardware problem
iOS problem
Program running requires a lot of resources
1 and 2 really require a device wipe in order to test for, since you're trying to avoid that, the only thing you can debug is 3. The easiest way to debug that is to reset your device (power off completely, then reboot) every morning after charging, then go about your day and make note of what apps you use, and whether your phone overheats or not. Rebooting it will make sure few to no apps are running.
If the overheating problem goes away then it's most likely a particular app that's causing the problem, though finding it is going to be difficult since it's one you don't use daily.
If the problem still happens occasionally, keep track of what apps you had run prior to it overheating, and see if there's a correlation, then try going a few days without using the app that shows up most often, and then try a few days using it every morning. That should give you solid evidence about whether the app is the culprit or not.
If there's no correlation between any particular app usage and overheating, then you're pretty much going to have to wipe it. Perform a backup, and take it to the store. Since you have to do a wipe anyway, you might as well do it once and get a replacement while you're at it. Apple takes overheating concerns very seriously and they should replace it without difficulty if it's under warranty.
If it's not under warranty, then it's worth wiping it yourself, updating the OS, loading just those apps you really need, and seeing if it still overheats. If the problem goes away, then restore the backup and see if it returns. If it doesn't return after the backup, then it was likely a corrupt iOS issue. If it does return after the backup, there's some app that's causing the problem. If the problem didn't go away after wiping and reinstalling the OS, then it's a hardware problem, and you should have it repaired or replaced.
- IPhone won't turn on/charge/connect to iTunes? The inside of my iPhone 4 screen cracked so the phone is worthless. But today my phone must have died while in my pocket. And it now won't turn on or charge and it won't connect to iTunes. Is there anyway I can sort this out? I'm getting a new phone, but I don't want all my photos to be lost.
- IPhone won't connect charge or connect to iTunes? Well… I'm no amateur when it comes to iPhones but this problem really has me stumped. I bought this phone and replaced the screen, the person i bought it off of couldnt remember the passcode so its disabled. I've tried putting it in dfu mode, recovery mode, etc. Still nothing. If i turn it off and leave it plugged in itll charge. I also put in a new charging port because i thought that was the problem. So i can't do anything with this phone… Any ideas?
- Iphone 6 black screen, home button doesn't work and it won't charge or connect to itunes? Nothing happened to the phone beforehand, I plugged it in to charge and a few minutes later I go to check on my phone and the screen is black and the sleep/wake up button won't turn it on. I try to hold the sleep/wake up button to see if its dead but the red battery doesn't show up. So its not dead but the screen is just black. ON top of that the home button hasn't been working. Any solutions to help me fix it?
