IPhone :: 2nd 4 In A Row That Keeps Needing To Be Restored Everyday?
Apr 7, 2012
2 weeks ago my iphone 4 started acting funny. Everyday for whatever reason i would lose service and then it would say "connect to itunes " and I would have to restore the phone to its original factory settings. this went on for 3 days until finally it refused to be restored through itunes, and it was now not reading my sim card. so i went and got a new sim card at ATT , didn't solve the problem. So I took it to the apple store, they determined that it couldn't be restored and they gave me a replacment unit. well a few days later , the same thing has been happening . This is a completely different phone , and every 24 hours it needs to be restored.
It dies and goes to recovery mode every single day. When i wake up i check my phone for any messges then open facebook app on my iphone 4s with iOS 5.1.1.As soon as FB starts to load, it dies and goes to recovery mod (just a black screen).I have to connect it to itunes on my notebook to restore it using home button and sleep button for ten seconds and then just the sleep button for ten seconds more.
I have a iphone 4s. Everyday same time 7am, my iphone gets warm in mh handbag. And I have not used it, would an app be causing it or the fact tgat I have it in my bag. Have not notice any battery drain when this happens
I have things on my calendar and in my reminded thatI want to be repeated only 3 days of the week but the only option to put so it will repeat is everyday. For example: I have events that only occur on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday but the only option I have to have to choose from to have the phone remind me or show it on my calendar as time not available is Daily, then it goes to monthly, etc. So when I set up a reminder or put something I want to show on my calendar I have to choose Daily so now it shows on everyday that my time is occupied for that event and it reminds me to which drives me crazy. You literally have to go to each day it's not suppose to be on and delete it in both the reminder and calendar.phone show that I am busy when I am not or it pops and makes a sound up when I am in the middle of things that are really not going on at those times of day and there are so many that I can not sit on my phone take it off the days I don't need it because that could be a year or more I would have to go thru to change. Is there an upgrade coming out for that soon to have it give us that option ro choose what says we want?
Info: iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1, Please post on main web or email
My HTC One X, which is only two weeks old, loses its data connection even when there is service coverage. It seems to happen after the phone has been on for a while. The only way I have found to re-establish the connection is to restart the phone. There is at least one other user on this forum with a similar problem.
i just updated my curve to the 5.0 or something. on the old setting i could lock the keypad with the left convience key and then press *A and the left green phone buttons. however on having updated the phone it wont let me do this anymore. Does anyone know how i can get it so that i can lock the keypad without having to type in a password to unlock it?
My phone makes text message sound or vibrate everyday at 4:00 and 8:00 but there's no text message. Is it just my phone? or is there a alert thing going on I don't know?
Does anyone know of how I would possibly be able to retrieve photos from my Samsung Galaxy S2 that has a non-fuctioning screen? The rest of the phone works - it charges, turns on (the 4 buttons light up as well as the light on the top) and the speakers for the ringtones and alerts works as well. I am desperate to get the pictures and am seeking all advice possible.
I find that some AC3 formatted files can be played while others give me an error about needing an AC3 filter. I find this generally on the higher bitrate videos. For example one is ac3 @ 192k and it plays just fine while another is 640k and says i need an ac3 filter. to play any obviously ffdshow is installed and working to play any ac3. I am confused, I have mainly avi and mkv files.
i have had my new blackberry for a week and noticed that the storage memory is decreasing everyday.i have installed OS.6 and have only 2 apps - twitter and facebook yet the memory is still decreasing.
I bought a Bold 9700 in Aug 2010, it has been working fine until 3 weeks back. It hangs / freezes unexpectedly, and although the 3G reception shows that it is full bar, I can't make/receive mobile calls and SMSes. Hence, when someone tries to call me, they can't get through and they can't SMS me to tell me they can't get through to me becos the SMS is not coming through as well!On top of this, I won't know that my phone is hanging until I try to make a call out and discover that my attempt has failed.So basically, I find myself making calls to my wife every hour just to see if my phone is in 'hang' mode And if the call attempt fails, then I'll know to reboot it. However, sometimes it takes a number of reboots (both hard and soft) before it's back up and working. This is a daily occurence happening 2-3 times a day.
*** Strange thing is that during 'hang' mode, although I can't make/receive mobile calls and SMSes, I can still send/receive Emails, BB Messenger and WhatsApp.Now I went to the Blackberry Service Centre and they gave me a one-to-one exchange But the next day after I brought my 'new' Blackberry home.. it hung again!!At this point, I thought that maybe it could be the SIM card causing the problem, so I went to my carrier and got a new SIM card.. just a few hours after... IT HUNG AGAIN! am now holding a 'new' Blackberry Bold 9700 and a new SM card but the same problem persists.
After 10 day's with a Nokia E52 i have been experiencing the following problems. Has anyone experienced anything similar?
1 - I need to reboot phone once a day for various Freeze-up's.
2 - My incoming SMS messages seem to get parked until i reboot the phone, then they come flooding into phone one after the other. Some people fail to receive messages sent by me also.
3 - System memory full appears on screen occasionally and to remedy this, well you guessed reboot the phone.
4 - On a call person on other end cannot hear me speak.
Is it worth my while returning phone for repair or would i be better off waiting for new firmware update?
For the last 2 weeks, I've been receiving a call from a "private number." The calls come at either 10 or 11 AM and also at 2 or 3 PM like its happening on the hour. They are disconnected from the other end after 3 seconds...there is no one on the line, nothing computerized, no static, nothing. Anyone else having these issues? I have the latest VZW software fwiw.
I plugged my iphone 3 into my imac for the first time in a few months just to fix my apps in folders and dump some photos into iphoto. It said it needed an update to 5.1 so I said ok. Took 30 minutes, so when came back it was restoring everything and then when it finished asked if it wanted to go back to a new iphone or a version from january...so all my pix are gone beause of an update...?
My Iphone has shut down and I tried to connect it to itunes where it could see my phone but it was in recovery mode and is says I have to restore it in order to use it with itunes. When I try to do this is starts normally but durring the proccess it stops and gets out an error, error 28.
Restored my iPhone to sell it today. My SIM was still in the phone when I did the restore and after it restored and restarted it still had my number when I clicked on "iPhone" in iTunes. Even without the SIM it still reads my number, is this because the phone was automatically activated with the SIM in it after the restore?
So i decided to make my iPhone legit again and when i restored my phone from back-up, i noticed it still had a custom bar from 'MakeItMine' Cydia app, how could i change this back to the original O2-UK without jailbraking again, changing it on MakeItMine and then restoring again?I read on another thread that you could restore as new then it would go, but what happens when you do this?
Q1: Will it delete all my apps and music off my mac?
Q2: Will it remove my account set-up with my iPhone?
Q3: Will i loose all my mobile number contacts?
PLEASE HELP, I WANT NO SIGN OF JAILBREAK ON MY IPHONE!!
So I have a 3GS that had a broken screen. I paid my telco to have it replaced with a refurbished handset.The replacement was plugged into a Windows PC with iTunes & unbricked. No problems there.It didn't get used for about 3 months & when I tried to charge it, it was dead! Meanwhile, the 90 days warranty on the handset has lapsed & I can't get it replaced or anything without paying again.I have tried restoring the handset many times & I get different error messages depending on how I do it.If I just plug it into my PC (running Windows Vista) & do a normal restore in iTunes the error message is (-1).If I put it in DFU mode & then do a restore in iTunes I get error 1602.If I use iREB to put in DFU mode & then restore using a downloaded ipsw file I get error 3194.I have tried doing the above on two PC's running Windows Vista & still always getting errors.I am using the latest version of iTunes (updated yesterday - 30th March 2012)I am not sure what OS is on the handset. The latest thing to happen is that when it gets to "Restoring iPhone firmware..." it seems to just hang at the very last bit. Then after a long time just left sitting there plugged in, it eventually comes up with error 1002.
bought phone today and restored from back up now wont turn on, constantly showing apple sign. have tried holding power and home button, also tried connecting to itunes.
