Iphone 4s keeps on returning to empty battery logo after restarting

I have an iphone 4s with an ios of 8.1.1

My phone completely shut off. The charger worked when i plugged it into the phone but when the home screen appeared there's no lighting logo beside the battery and it only stays on 1%. I tired restarting it but it goes back to the empty battery logo every time and nothing changes. It also doesn't recognize my usb adapter unless its showing the battery logo.

pls help m fix my phone..

iPhone 4S, iOS 8.1.1, null

Hello niecedumlao,


Thanks for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.


It sounds like your iPhone 4s is not charging. I know it can be very difficult to be without a working phone, and I suggest giving these steps a try:

If the battery doesn’t charge, unplug your device and try these steps:

  1. Look at the connector at the bottom of your device and make sure it’s free of debris.
  2. If you're using a USB power adapter, make sure it's plugged in all the way and the power outlet is working. If you're connecting to a computer, make sure it's on and can charge your device. To charge an iPad, you might need to use a USB power adapter and plug into a power outlet.
  3. Try a different USB cable, USB power adapter, or USB port.
  4. If everything seems to be working, reconnect your device and wait for 30 minutes.
  5. If your device still doesn’t charge, try to restart it while it's connected to power. If you can't restart, reset your device.

Additionally, try resetting your iPhone while it is connected to power.

To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.

If the same symptoms continue, the first article suggests contacting Apple Support at this point:

If your device still doesn't charge or you still see an alert after trying the steps above, contact Apple Support.

All the best,


Jeremy
