HELP !!!!!!
I have a 3 week old iPhone 6 and today it seems to have gone into meltdown. I work in an air conditioned office but the phone now says that I have a temperature warning and won't let me in at all.
I have tried to restore using iTunes but that keeps failing.
Does anyone have any other ideas as to what I can do, other than launching it at the wall....lol
Thanks

You may try to reset/restore your device using these instructions.
Alternatively, you may go to Settings - General - Reset - Reset All Settings
If this does not help, try these steps. Note that this may erase the data from your computer.
If this does not help, try the recovery mode. Turn your device off, then plug it to your computer with the home button pressed. You will need to have iTunes installed on this computer. Keep the Home button pressed until you see the iTunes logo on the screen of your iPhone. After that on your computer you should see the iTunes window saying your iPhone needs to be restored to factory settings. Click on the restore button.
If your iPhone gets hot when you simply browse through the Internet, open apps etc. and the reset does not help, I suggest that you should take it to your local Apple Store to have it repaired or replaced.
Hiya,
Thanks for getting back to me. I will contact my local Apple store but I live in the UAE and I bought my iPhone 6 at Heathrow at the beginning of April prior to flying out. The only problem I will have is that FaceTime is banned in the UAE, so a replacement won't have it on there and I use this to communicate with my kids back in the UK.
I am trying to charge it at the moment to see if that does anything. I have tried to restore using iTunes but half way through the phone disconnects from iTunes, so that hasn't worked. I have tried the sleep/home button combination and that hasn't worked.
Before I got the temperature warning, my lock screen was saying "slide for emergency" and when I tried to enter my PIN it would just vibrate and not let me in.
I'm gutted as all my IT stuff is Apple and this is the first time I've been let down. Looks like its a trip to the store for a replacement.
Thanks again
Nathan
