iPhone 5 dies when ii try to backup/update

I

iMore Question

Whenever i try to update or backup the phone , it dies. see link to video below.

It doesn't matter if i backup using the lightning cable, or over WIFi.

I replaced the display since the glass was cracked. but I had the same problem before.

Interestingly I managed to ''download'' iOS 9 without a single reboot (which took more than an hour), but when i try to install it , the phone dies after some 15 sec.

the same happens when i try to backup the phone in itunes.

here's a video of what happens when i tried syncronizing if over WiFi:

ask and i'll post a link to the video.. couldn't cause it got blocked as spam..
