iPhone 6 plus sudden shut off and won't turn on.

So my problem is similar but it turns of at say 40% and then for the next 5 minutes it says it's out of battery. Then after 5 or so minutes, I can turn it back on. If I try to run anything it will shut off and do the same thing. The only way I've found to temporarily fix it is to hard reset a couple of times right after it restarts. Anything I can do or will it need to be repaired? Also I have an iPhone 6 and I think it may be a RAM issue as when I try to open say twitter it will shut off. Help please.

Sounds like a possible battery issue. You could also try to put it in DFU mode, and clean restore the software to rule anything out.

Either way, I would definitely get an appointment to the Genius Bar.

The same thing has been happening to me A LOT! Yesterday it happened 3 times! I had to reset my phone 2 times and wait over an hour for my phone to turn back on! What is the deal here? This iis a huge inconvenience. Is it possible someone has hacked my phone?!

It seems to me that (on my phone, at least), this has started when the latest forced update happened. This morning was one of the toughest I had trying to start the phone. It was only after I put the USB on my computer, started up ITunes and pressed the home and start button (I had to hold it for close to a minute). This is getting to be quite a nuisance.

I have had this problem this morning.

I have plugged my phone into my macbook, then tried the reset by holding down the off button and home button for 30 seconds. The black screen has came on that says must be reset by itunes. Itunes is now downloading software to restore the phone.

Lablover 54,

Not sure if you got your problem fixed... However, plug your phone into a computer with itunes installed. Hold down your home button and your on/off button for about 30 seconds. Itunes restore screen should come on. Then itunes will download the restoration program it needs to fix your phone.

good luck to you.

That's not remotely helpful (you asking for specifics like that) obviously it isn't one specific update as it's happening to me now. And has been for increasing intervals since last year. Clearly it's an issue Apple should address somehow. But nitpicking people's comments is not useful.

It was the disrespectful manner in which the reply was written I take issue with. Why so defensive? Anyway, I was reading these posts with hopes to find a real answer to my issue without having to post my information. Clearly, I am going to have to share.

Version. 10.3.2

Verizon carrier

Good enough?

Now the issue, any level of charge. 20%, 80% or anywhere in between my phone just shuts off. I attempted to restart my phone right away. Not one thing happens. No temperature warnings, no low battery displays. Nothing. Then, at some point it turns back on. In its own. Or with my help. It varries. Sometimes it's plugged in. Sometimes it's not.

Pardon me for questioning why someone needs to treat people like they're not smart. This forum is to help people and they were not helpful. At all. I had read a few comments like that from trolls who have nothing better to do and I got sick of it. Moving on... anyone find a solution?

Have you tried erasing your device and setting it up as a new device, then using it for awhile to see if the problem still exists or is fixed? If you still have the problem with a totally clean device (i.e., one not set up from a backup and only signed in), then it needs to go back to Apple to see what they can do.

If you try that and it does work as expected, then you would erase it again and restore it from the backup to see if the issue returns. If it does, the there is either an app or corrupted data that is causing the issue, and you would want to erase again and set up the phone manually.

If restoring it to the backup resolves the issue, then you are all set.

Have you received results form apple. My iPhone 5S is doing this almost once a day. I've even payed 39 euros to get the battery replaced at a place with a 5 star review on google. Please contact me back.

If you have a phone replaced, then you absolutely need to make a backup of that device before taking it in to get exchanged.

Photos should have already been imported to your photos library on your computer. If you are using iCloud Photo Library, then the device isn't relevant.

Messages will go away if you don't have a backup. So will all of your settings, and your "download profile" (i.e., the purchased items that reside on the old phone that would be automatically re-downloaded if you were restoring from a backup. You can, of course, re-download any of your purchased media manually, or by syncing.

Same!!!! I had put my phone on the charger and it was at 46% and I went to take a shower so I plugged it in on my counter in the bathroom and after I grabbed for my phone to turn music on as I normally do while showering and it suddenly wasn't turning on at all. I plugged it back in and no charging signal came on and it didn't turn on for three hours straight and when it decided to turn on it was at 3%. Instead of worrying about making a new generation of IPhone each month, Apple should seriously consider focusing on fixing these issues.

OK, several things:

1. The post you are responding to is over 2 years old

2. The response given was a valid question - we are not mind readers here

3. You don't get to decide who posts on this forum - the Host do - they decide if you are violating the TOU of the forum. You might want to read them.

Is your device a 6s or a 6Plus? If it is a 6s it may qualify for this program:

iPhone 6s Program for Unexpected Shutdown Issues - Apple Support

Best of luck,
