Are you trying to turn on your iPhone and it does not turn on? There may be several reasons that make the system not operational. Surely it has already been tested that the battery is not responsible, many times we run out of charge and it turns off automatically.
There are other reasons and when we want to discover the problem we only think that something has gone wrong and it doesn't look good. We will analyze the various reasons and some ways to restart it with some forced ignition method, either because it does not respond or is blocked when turning it on.
What to do when our iPhone does not turn on?
We will indicate a series of steps that you can apply depending on the iPhone model you are using.
On iPhone 8 or later models, iPhone SE (2nd and 3rd generation)
- Quickly press and release the button raise the volume.
- Quickly press and release the button decrease the volume.
- You have to hold down the right side button until the Apple logo appears.
If the phone has not turned on we must check the load. You must connect the USB cable to a power source (wall outlet, computer, or power accessory). You can also try wireless charging.
- You need look at screen icons appearing on the black background. These icons will offer details of what your status is like.
- If you notice that the battery charges slowly or does not charge, you should check if there are damage to accessories.
- If the outlet is correct and transmit current.
- Clean any type of dirt left on the plug or inside the charging port. It may also be that this port is damaged and does not load.
The device must be allowed to charge for the necessary time (at least 30 minutes).
If the device still does not respond, we must force it to restart again. If it doesn't do anything, you'll need to check other charging mechanisms or take the phone to Apple support.
On the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus model
Keep holding the side button and the volume down button until it lights up. The Apple logo will appear.
If the phone does not turn on, follow the same steps described for Check if it's loaded and load tools. If this is not the reason, you have to go to a apple support.
On the iPhone 6 model and earlier models, also the iPhone SE 1st generation
Hold down the home buttons and side button or the top button until you see it light up.
If the phone does not turn on, we follow the same steps described, we check charging and charging accessories. In this way, if everything is correct and it does not turn on, you have to go to a repair service.
What to do if my iPhone falls and then does not turn on?
Surely on more than one occasion we drop the device and take a big hit. In such a circumstance, the phone discharges the battery completely, it is a technique that is used among manufacturers and that works as a security mechanism. For this reason the phone will not turn on.
Connect your phone to the battery and wait for it to formalize a charge. About 30 minutes will be enough to verify that it is the cause of the battery. If it doesn't work after that time, there is probably a bigger problem.
Restore iPhone with iTunes after crash
If you have managed to turn on the phone, but it does not respond, surely the system is cleared due to the blow. You can still try to test use itunes and so you will need a computer to do it. Keep in mind that this action can cause permanent damage to your device if you make a mistake in how to do it, therefore, do not lose detail on how to do it. In this case, we will use a Mac to do it:
- You must have iTunes installed on your computer.
- Open iTunes and connect iPhone to Mac.
- Download the firmware that corresponds to the operating system of your iPhone. You can go to this link https://ipsw.me/
- Go to the area of your mobile device and look for the section "Restore iPhone", thus.
Keep in mind that the charge or the percentage of the battery has to do with turning on the phone. Assuming this probability as the first probability. One has to know the details of why it has been completely downloaded (due to a fall) or because there is overheating of the phone.
The system eventually finds a mismatch in the device noting that it gets too hot and comes to limit its load by 80%. If you notice that this problem exists, you just have to wait for it to reach its normal temperature or to cool down before you can fully charge it.
