iPhone 6 turns off by itself. Why does iPhone turn off by itself and how to fix it? Perform a hard reset

Despite the high reliability and quality of work, Apple equipment is susceptible to many problems.

If the iPhone 6S, 6, 5S, 5, 4S, 4 turns off by itself and the battery is still not discharged, this indicates a problem. Most often this happens during a conversation or when working with applications. In such a situation, you can act in different ways.

You can try to reboot it manually and reset the temporary data. To do this, you need to press and hold the Home button and the power button at the same time. This must be done until the image of an apple appears on the screen.

Sometimes it is enough to connect your iPhone to a power adapter. After that, it will turn on, charge and continue working. If the failure occurs again soon, the battery is damaged and needs to be replaced.

Resetting the operating system to its original state is another “cure”. To do this, you don’t even need to resort to any tricks - just use the “Reset” function in the iOS settings.

If none of the described methods help, you should look for serious damage to the electronic “stuffing”. It is necessary to contact and order a comprehensive diagnosis.

Unfortunately, even with such a high-tech and reliable device as the iPhone 6 Plus, an unpleasant situation can happen.

Violation of operating conditions, an absurd accident, and sometimes a manufacturing defect can cause a smartphone to fail. One of the most common problems is when the device does not respond to pressing the “Power” key.

Sooner or later, most iPhone users face this issue. The problem of iPhone not being able to turn on is quite common. Each generation of iPhones has its own characteristics of this problem. The first thing you need to do is connect your iPhone 6 to the original charger.

Most often, the culprit of the breakdown is the “Power” button itself, which has a damaged contact pad or cable. The reason most often lies in moisture getting inside the case or mechanical damage to the part caused by the phone falling. Also, often a smartphone’s failure to turn on is due to a serious software glitch or failure of the power system controller.

Why and how to solve

There are many reasons why the iPhone 6 turns off and won’t turn on.

They can be broadly divided into the following:

• complete discharge of the device;
• software problems;
• hardware problems.

Software problems are easier to solve; in a situation with hardware problems, the solution is more complex and expensive.

Software glitch

The most common reason why an iPhone won't start is a software glitch. To fix a software glitch, you need to do a hard reboot of the device. To do this, press and hold the Power key and the Home key simultaneously for 15 seconds. As a result, the device will reboot and will be available for normal operation.

If this does not help, then you need to try to put the device into recovery mode. To do this, hold down the “Power” and “Home” buttons for 30 seconds.

In a situation where such a basic solution to the problem along with thoroughly charging the battery did not solve the problem, the possible reason for the non-working device is as follows:

• The gadget’s battery is faulty (needs to be replaced with a new one);
• The adapter or USB cable is damaged (the adapter or USB cable needs to be replaced);
• The cable connector is dirty (it is necessary to clean the cable connector);
• low-quality (cheap) cable (replace with an original one);
• mechanical damage to the connector and other mechanical damage, for example, due to a fall, moisture, after charging in a car, etc. (you need to contact the service center);
• defect (you must contact the place of purchase).

It is also possible that the iPhone may not turn on after updating the firmware.

There are three different scenarios depending on when the failure occurred during the firmware update:

• reflash the phone again;
• replace the faulty NAND Flash. This is a memory chip on which all the owner’s personal data is stored;
• replace the failed Nor Flash. This is the GSM module memory chip. All parameters of mobile operators are stored there. Without these parameters, the device will not be able to make calls.

Power and charging problem

If you can't turn on your iPhone 6, then most likely there is a problem with the power or charging. First of all, you should try to charge it. Moreover, you need to connect it to the charger for at least 20 minutes from the adapter and 30 minutes from the workstation.

After this, you need to try to start the iPhone without disconnecting it from charging. If everything is normal, the display will show a symbol of a lightning bolt inside a low battery.

When the battery of an Apple smartphone is completely discharged, after a short charging, when you press the power button, the display displays a picture showing a socket with a lightning bolt symbol.

The way out of this situation is to charge the device for a longer time. In this case, the charging time must be at least 3 hours.

There are situations when the connector through which the phone is charged fails when using a non-original charger.

It is very important to know how to easily charge your iPhone 6 in a car, and even more important to follow these basic rules. This leads to serious consequences. At best, the iPhone battery needs to be replaced. At worst, this means replacing the power controller or repairing a failed power circuit.

iPhone 6 could

In addition to problems with the battery, the iPhone not turning on can be explained by human error. This is especially common when the phone is carried in a trouser pocket.

The device connector becomes clogged with dust and dirt, and the next time you try to charge it, the iPhone simply breaks. This problem is not very serious, since any service center can fix it in a few minutes for little money.

Fill with liquid

Getting your phone wet or even flooding it with liquid is not uncommon. Problems with the iPhone can begin not only when it drowns in a pond, but even when it gets caught in light rain. In this situation, the gadget may begin to fail.

In this case, cleaning the device or component repair of the motherboard is highly recommended. It is important to stop using the phone immediately if moisture gets inside the device.

Solving the problem is not entirely trivial, so it is recommended to seek help from a certified service center and avoid problems that may arise in the future.

Lose to the floor

The problem with turning on the iPhone may be due to mechanical damage, namely falling to the floor. It is important to remember whether the fall occurred a certain time ago, since the peculiarity of this situation is that problems with the smartphone can begin to appear quite a long time after the fall.

An impeccable appearance (no scratches or other visible flaws) does not mean that there are no problems with it.

Alternatively, one of several cables may snap off:

• power cable;
• display cable;
• battery cable.

A more serious situation is associated with a soldering problem on the motherboard or damage to one or more microcircuits.

iPhone users may encounter a situation where the device turns off and does not turn on. If you don’t consider the simplest options, when the battery simply wasn’t charged in time, then most likely the issue is a malfunction of the boot data block of the gadget’s operating system.

This problem can be solved if you try to restore the partition by connecting your smartphone in DFU mode.

Often, a hard reboot will help to remove the device from this situation, and if moisture gets inside it or there is mechanical damage, it is better to contact a professional.

However, no one is immune from problems that may arise with equipment, including the iPhone 6. Next, we will take a closer look at the main reasons for the phone turning on and off without permission.

Why does iPhone 6 turn off by itself?

— You can try rebooting the system. In most cases, a hard reboot of the device will help solve problems with the phone turning off spontaneously. Rebooting the system allows you to update the operation of all important programs, as well as ensure that all the functionality of the device runs flawlessly. To do this, you need to press the large button located on the side of the phone and hold it for several seconds until the screen goes dark.

— Restoring the iPhone system. In more complex cases, you can try resetting all settings and restoring the phone to factory settings. It is quite simple and easy, and even a beginner can cope with system recovery. In this case, you need to go to the operating system settings menu and reset all parameters. After this, the phone should ensure normal operation of all its programs.

- It could also be that a specific part of the phone is faulty. If all of the above methods did not help, then the problem is quite serious and requires a professional approach. In this case, it is recommended to seek help from real professionals with many years of experience, who will quickly determine the cause of the malfunction. In addition, repairs at the service center are free for all iPhone 6 owners.

And the iPhone is a rather elegant thing, and perhaps the moment has come when the device simply does not have any effect on keystrokes and is not activated. There may be a million explanations for this, but everything has its own reasons, everything can be explained in some way. Maybe you accidentally sat on top of it while the phone was in your back pocket, or there was a serious rainstorm and it ended up wet. Of course, if the smartphone drowned in a bathtub where water was filled to the top, or fell onto hard ground from a balcony, it is unlikely that you will be able to solve the problem on your own, and in any case you will have to visit a service center. But if no such critical actions were taken with the device, there is a 90 percent chance that we will have a chance to restore the functionality of the gadget on our own. The main thing we need to do is to take into account the signs given by the device and use them usefully and intelligently to correct the situation in our favor.

iPhone 6 won't turn on - completely black screen and nothing changes

The most common case of iPhone not working. The screen does not want to light up at all, and regardless of your actions, there is no reaction to them. The most likely explanation for this fact is a completely dead battery or a completely hanging AXLE. First we will discuss the first option, we will discuss the second explanation for this behavior of the gadget a little later. What measures should be taken if it does not turn on or another modification?

1. Maybe you live in a cold region, and the winter in your area is very harsh. In this case, a likely explanation for the phone not working is that the temperature is too cold. Don’t be surprised, due to cold weather, Apple devices often stop responding to taps and temporarily become faulty. Place the gadget in a warm temperature and proceed to step No. 2.

2. Connect the charger to the device and wait at least 15 minutes. If we have determined the diagnosis correctly and have not made a mistake with the cause, the device will activate itself after a short time. Otherwise, proceed to the next step.

3. At the same time, hold down the Home and Power keys. Do not release the keys for 15-20 seconds, namely until a glowing apple appears on the device’s display. After this, the keys can be released. Finally, wait approximately 1 minute for iOS to fully launch.

4. It happens that before turning to step No. 2, it is necessary to enable/disable the silent-mode switch several times at certain intervals. In part, if pressing two keys (HOME and POWER) at the same time did not bring the expected result, such a measure can bring the effect we need.

In the case where none of the above measures had the desired effect, and the iPhone 6 still does not turn on, the explanation may be this: one of the smart components has simply failed. The cable for charging the device could also be broken, or the charging itself could be faulty. It's worth trying to charge your phone using a different charger.

A program running on an iPhone freezes during operation

It may happen that an application on iPhone 6 stops launching and freezes. Under these conditions, it is necessary to force close it and unload the application from the phone’s memory. To force close the application, we carry out the following sequence of actions: double-click on the Home button, and then swipe up to minimize the problematic task.

iPhone 6 won't turn on - smart doesn't respond to button taps

From time to time the following happens: the gadget stops activating and responding to any button presses. In addition, a screenshot of the last program you launched is displayed on the screen in a suspended state, but there is no way to close it. If you find yourself in just such circumstances, perform a hard reboot of the smart phone. To force it, keep the Home and Power keys pressed for 10 seconds and you will get the reboot effect you want.

iPhone 6 won't turn on - apple appears on display all the time

It may happen that the smart device does not respond to user actions, an apple appears on the screen and then disappears again, and this behavior occurs permanently. Typically, the explanation for this behavior of the phone is an incorrect update of iOS, a crooked hack, or a small glitch in the process of restoring a backup copy (in other words, a backup) of the device. If it may seem to you that the days of the device are already numbered, you should not rush to draw such global conclusions. In response, let's make an attempt to bring it back to life, in particular by launching recovery-mode. So, if your iPhone won't turn on, what should you do?

1. Launch the iTunes program on your computer and insert a USB cable into a free port on your PC (there is no need to connect the cable to the smartphone itself yet)

2. Turn off the power to the device by holding down the Home + Power buttons

3. While holding down the Home button, connect the USB cable to the device

4. Hold down the Home key until the iTunes logo and an image with a plug appear on the device screen

5. A message will appear on the PC display notifying you that the device is in recovery-mode

6. Next, tap the “Restore” button. Next, you should wait a certain period: until the device is restored to default settings, the latest version of iOS will be downloaded to the computer. During the boot process, the smart phone will simply lie there with a dark screen and not respond to button presses. Even if your network connection is strong and fast, the download may take up to 30 minutes or longer. If your Internet connection is not very fast, the process may not finish at all. So you should first take care of the reliability of your Wi-Fi connection.

Now you know what to do if iPhone 6 or an earlier modification does not turn on. We hope that this article will become your guide to restoring the device’s functionality if it appears to be faulty, and it will take you very little time and will not cost you any financial expenses.
