How do i get rid of a iPhone Virus?

If you do have a virus on your phone I'm guessing you were doing more than the most, however it is possible for and iPhone or iPad to get a virus. It is extremely rare!! This is what I found: http://www.macworld.co.uk/how-to/iphone/how-remove-virus-from-iphone-or-ipad-365 8975/?amp

Good luck!

And the information in that article basically boils down to "Don't jailbreak your iPhone". No one needs to click on a link to find that out. We've said it repeatedly in this thread. Posting articles like that misrepresents the level of threat.

No, he was abducted by aliens.

Actually, he's living in a nursing home in South Texas, along with JFK.

No you don't. You don't need a free one or one that costs money. You don't need a "virus cleaner" for your iOS device at all, because there are no viruses in the wild for iOS devices (unless your device is jailbroken, in which case - you won't get any help here).

So, keep that kind of crap off of your phone, and it will continue to work as it should.

Best of luck,

you are currently on an ancient ios version. Iphone 5 works perfectly well on ios 10.3.3 which is the latest supported by apple. Install ios 10.3.3 from itunes thru DFU mode. (DFU mode: Connect to itunes, power off and press home with cord connected to ur pc untill u see the device shut down and re appear as "connect to itunes". Even if its a virus as u say it should clear out everything including the boot record.

Hope this helps..

If you've read this thread you'd know viruses do not exist in the wild for the iPhone (assuming you have not done a "jailbreak" procedure on your device; if you have, we can't help you here unless you first reinstall a clean version of iOS on your phone.)

Sounds like a faulty cable or power supply to me. Have you tried a different one? If the device is acting up even after you have wiped it, then there is a hardware problem. Either the cable, or the device. Easy enough to eliminate one of them....

But i keep getting it snd phone keeps freezing and i restart it like 3 times a day

The solution is easy: Ignore such bogus scam messages.

Phony "tech support" / "ransomware" popups and web pages

There are no iphone Virus, unless you have a jailbroken phone.

Thank you for this super valuable advice. I found that 5 million times in the Internet and if I didn't still have virus on my non jail broken iPhone 5 I wouldn't write here. So anybody has a proper solution other than "there are no viruses for iPhone" how to get rid of this ****?

So, how do you expect anyone to tell you to get rid of something that does not exist? The reality is there are no known virii (viruses ?) in the wild for unaltered, stock iOS.

what makes you suspect you would have a virus?

many users when they exp some action cause by a bug or just new to the user

then many thing

1. they are being hacked

2. they have a virus

back in the day many people wrote off things they exp in real life

as

1. demons

2. later on as aliens

also many people in these forums thing there are people remote controllings their ios devices

when people "guess" their email passwords and can sendt mails from their account

Just restore your iPhone in iTunes. All iOS devices are manufactured to make getting viruses and stuff like that practically impossible unless the device is jailbroken. More and likely, its a software glitch causing your iPhone to do things on its own or its a touchscreen issue. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414?viewlocale=en_US

I'd restore the phone as a new device to eliminate any problem returning if you restored your backup file with corrupted data.
