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

Try the toothpick and really get it into the corners. We have had so many people report that they thought they had gotten everything out, and then found another big wad in the corner....

Thanks for the tip! I'll give it a shot!

Fingers crossed 🙂

Thanks Guys!

Thanks to your explanation my IPhone came back to life in less than five minutes as opposed to a whole day to change my schedule to get to the Apple Store.

Thankuuuuuu so much for solutions. After holding Home button + power button for 10-20 second my iphone got started. This is best solution. Guys you saved my life.

This happened to me this AM with my iPhone SE! Did you ever find a good fix??

Did you read and try any of the recommendations in this thread? If so, what have you tried already?

Cheers,

I have tried all of the suggestions, and spent several hours in various chats with Apple Techs... nothing worked, so I'm just gonna go to the Apple Store.

I tried every suggested made by Apple Support Chat. Apple Genius bar replaced the phone because it was still covered by Apple Care. Very prompt fix.

I just did the hold the power button and home button and at exactly 15 seconds the my iPhone 6S Plus phone started. I did not charge it overnight so when it booted it was at 25% charge. Does anyone know why this is happening? Should I swap our phone since I just bought it a week ago?

Unless you are having to restart it more than just occasionally, then no, you don't need to return it. Have you downloaded any apps that were not from the App Store?

This is first time it happened to me and no I did not download any apps not from App store. My daughter thought it might be some Safemode feature I enabled by accident but I don't recall doing anything like that. I will keep an eye on phone and see if it happens again. Thx.

OK. So, just like a computer needs to be rebooted occasionally, sometimes the iDevice does too. If the reset is not something you have to do often, then there is nothing to worry about. It is perfectly normal.

I'm experiencing the same issue. It started last week that my phone would shut off and show the low battery sign when there is still 79% battery remaining. I reboot the phone holding on the home and starting button for 30 seconds, but it will show the home screen and then immediately shut down. I had to plug in the charger to re-start it, but then after unplugging, same thing happens. I reset the phone as well, but still experiencing the random shut-offs.
