iPhone 5 won't turn on and when plugged into a charger the screen flashes

Last night before i went to bed, i plugged in my iPhone 5 into its charger. When I woke up this morning the screen would show the apple logo and then restart and keep cycling through the apple logo. The phone only does this when plugged into a charger and does not even turn on when unplugged from the charger. I havent dropped it or have water damage. Is their any way to fix this?

iPhone 5, iOS 6.1

Try a reset when your iPhone is plugged into the charger as you say it does not respond when not plugged in...


Press and hold the Home and On/Off buttons simultaneously until you see the Apple logo, then release. This may take up to 10 seconds. This is the equivalent of a re-boot and you will not lose any data.


See if it will charge after this.
