The apple does not turn on and is lit. iPhone hangs and apple burns - what to do

Hello! To begin with, it is worth describing the situation in more detail, otherwise it may not be clear from the title what the author means. Moreover, I recently encountered this problem personally, so the picture is clear before my eyes and it will not be difficult to describe the situation :) And the following happened - my rather old iPhone 5s was completely discharged, as they say, “to zero”, and it would seem that there was nothing criminal, I put it on charge and went about my business...

I return after a while and see very strange and inappropriate behavior of the device - the iPhone turns on, the screen lights up for a while (an apple appears and even a glimpse of entering the password) and immediately the display goes out and the phone turns off safely. And that's it, this happens all the time. For the sake of the experiment, I waited another 20 minutes - nothing changed (only), but it continued to turn on and off with enviable consistency.

I’ll get ahead of myself and say that I managed to solve the problem on my own and without visiting a service center, and in a fairly easy way. But first, here’s how to prevent such a situation and what you should pay attention to:

  1. Do not discharge the device until it is completely empty, especially if the battery is no longer new.
  2. Don’t try to force it; in cold weather you need a lot more energy to start.
  3. Use original accessories - the battery will only thank you.

Actually, almost all of these reasons coincided with me - the room was relatively cool, the battery had definitely been around for a couple of years (although it still holds), only the wire and charger were original.

What ends up happening? When connected to a charger, it turns out that all the incoming energy is spent solely on loading the system and backlighting the display. This energy is not enough, it cannot accumulate, the iPhone seems to turn on, but immediately discharges and turns off. And then everything will happen again. This is such a vicious circle. How to get out of it?

  • Use a more powerful power adapter. The one that comes with the iPhone produces 1 ampere and is clearly not enough in such a situation. This means you need something stronger, for example, from an iPad. It has 2.1 amps of output and is able to provide more power that is enough to turn on. Is it safe? Apple says that, and there is no point in not believing it.
  • If there is no other adapter at hand, you need to do the following operation - and leave it on charge for a while in this state. In this mode, the screen does not light up and the system does not boot, which means there will be no energy consumption and all of it will be used to charge the battery. After 20-30 minutes we turn on the iPhone and are glad that the shutdowns have stopped.
  • This option is clearly not for everyone and will require some skill on your part. It consists of connecting the wire to the device for 2-3 seconds and, without waiting for it to turn on, immediately pull it out. And in such small portions, recharge the battery to a state that is enough to fully start the iPhone.

Finally, I would like to note that the situation discussed in this article is of course not normal and in an amicable way, the battery needs to be changed so that there are no other surprises in the future. But here everyone decides for himself.

Sometimes iPhone owners encounter an unpleasant phenomenon - the Apple logo appears on the screen and the device stops showing signs of life. As a rule, this happens after installing updates or crashing applications. The iPhone freezes or reboots on Apple, making further use impossible. We will tell you what to do in this case below.

In contact with

Force restart iPhone

Sometimes forcing the device to reboot helps get rid of the apple on a dark screen. iPhone 7 and newer models can be restarted by pressing and holding the power button and volume rocker simultaneously for 10 seconds.

To restart older models, press and hold the Power and Home buttons for 10 seconds.


Updating iPhone in Recovery Mode

If a forced reboot does not help, try updating iOS in Recovery Mode. This method allows you to reinstall the operating system without changing the data stored on the device. However, it is only effective if the logo screen appears as a result of a glitch in the iOS update process. If the problem is related to the device's hardware or jailbreak, this method will not help.

To update iOS in recovery mode, you will need a desktop computer with the latest version of iTunes and a USB cable.

1 . Open iTunes on your computer.

2 . Activate recovery mode.

On iPhone 7 and newer Apple smartphones You can activate recovery mode by simultaneously pressing and holding the power button and the volume down rocker until the smartphone turns off. Then hold down the volume down button on your smartphone and, while continuing to hold it, connect your iPhone using a USB cable to a computer with iTunes installed. After about 10 seconds, the iTunes logo with a cable will appear on the iPhone screen, and a notification will appear in iTunes on your computer that your iPhone has been detected in recovery mode.

On earlier iPhone models You can activate recovery mode by simultaneously pressing and holding the power button and the Home button until the smartphone turns off. Then, on your smartphone, hold down the Home button and continue to hold it, connect your iPhone using a USB cable to the computer with iTunes installed. After about 10 seconds, the iTunes logo with a cable will appear on the iPhone screen, and a notification will appear in iTunes on your computer that your iPhone has been detected in recovery mode.

3 . In iTunes, click on " Update».


The above steps will update the device firmware. If the logo screen does not disappear, try again, but select " Restore" Please note that in this case, all iPhone settings will be reset to factory settings (all data will be deleted). You can restore them from backup copies.

Resetting (flashing) iPhone in DFU mode

You can get rid of the logo screen by resetting the settings in DFU mode. In this case, all data on the device will be lost, so make sure you have all the necessary backups before proceeding.

We talked in detail about how to put an iPhone into DFU mode.

If the problem is a jailbreak and you can't remove the tweak or app, a DFU mode reset is likely your only option.

What to do if the logo screen doesn't go away and your iPhone still doesn't work

If rebooting your device, updating the firmware, or even resetting the settings doesn't help, the problem may be hardware related. In this case, it is best to contact a service that specializes in repairing Apple products.

Why iPhone freezes and reboots on apple

If your iPhone screen suddenly goes blank, a logo appears on it, and then nothing happens, then something has gone wrong with the software. Reasons why the logo screen appears:

  • The most common problem is the iOS update process crashing.
  • If your device is jailbroken, the problem may be related to the jailbreak itself, a tweak, or an application installed from Cydia.
  • Incorrect iOS beta version.
  • Problems with the hardware (device hardware).

One of the simplest problems that can happen to your device. The phone is simple won't turn on And lights up battery icon (Apple) or a completely black screen. The way out of this situation is obvious! First of all, you need to make sure that your Charger works fine, try to test it on another device if the result is negative, then just buy a new charger and enjoy life!

If it is not possible to buy a new charger, then try to fix it yourself - glue the wires, then charge via a USB station, for example, via a computer!
Do not forget that in the cold Apple devices can turn off, since the battery cannot withstand even the slightest cold, it needs to be warmed up and a charger inserted!

And most importantly, if your phone is completely discharged and shows no signs of life, then just put it on charge and don’t touch it about 20-30 minutes!

Software problem

It happens that the iPhone stops working normally: some freezing in applications, or even in general don't turn on. In most cases, this happens after failed update or Jailbreak devices. The main thing is not to panic, because you can turn your favorite phone into a brick! One way to solve this problem is a phone called " Hard Reset". Here's how to do it: Hold down the buttons Home And Power, then wait 5-10 seconds and your phone is very likely to reboot and work successfully.

But if this option does not help you, there is a 100% way - reflash device via PC.
First of all, download the program iTunes from the official Apple website, further connect through the iPhone cord to the PC and turn off the device while holding the buttons Power And Home. Hold down the buttons until the screen goes dark, release the button Power, but hold Home - this will put the iPhone into DFU. After such an operation, a notification should appear on the computer that the device is in safe mode ready for recovery.
