Iphone stuck on apple logo it's not responsive Hi, I have an iPhone 8 plus which is water damaged when I try to turn it on it stays on the apple logo until it slightly dims (still on the apple logo) until it switches of after a while and it loops. After that it switches of completely I can't get it into iTunes mode for a software update as it's not responding, you can only turn it on while it's charging and if you take it off the phone switches off after a couple of minutes

Iphone 12 won't turn on - flashing white apple logo over and over How can i fix my iphone? I never dropped it or got the device wet. The phone initially stopped working because the brightness was broken. This was not an auto-brightness issue. I fixed that issue this morning by resetting the "Zoom screen". My faceID was not working after the brightness issue so I went to restart my phone. Now my phone won't turn back on and just continues to flash the white apple logo. It's been over 2 hours of doing this even when it is plugged into the charger, computer or not charger. Can anyone help?

Your phone is water damaged beyond repair. It's time to buy a new one.
