I know there are lots of threads about the iphone 4 charging issues, but I haven't seen any like this. My iPhone doesn't charge, it shows that it's coneccted, but instead of the lightening bolt it shows the plug in. That is what it shows. I've tried restoring it, backing up, restoring as a new iphone, changing chargers, even batteries. Nothing has worked.
iPhone 4 8gb/White. Purchased November 2011, AT&T.Plug in the 30-pin connector, and USB to PC: it will chirp, but then stop. This same PC/USB connector supports 2 other iPods (4th gen) and a iPhone 4S (granted, not all are plugged in together, but one at a time!), and the White iPhone 4 is the only one with the issue. Tried on another PC, USB plugged directly in, no hubs, no extensions, again, a cable that is tried and true and works on other iOS devices. SAME problem. Chirp-on, then disconnect after 1 second. Does this repeatedly 3 or 4 times in a row, then gives up for a while.
Tried with straight USB AC power cube - same result. Tried a different USB AC power cube - same result. I have tried to power the phone off and charge it with the power off, but when the port wakes back up, it turns the phone back on. I managed to keep enough charge in the phone to update it from 5.0.1 to 5.1.1. Also did a "reset all settings" - and the problem persists.
I have NOT yet done an erase all settings (is it necessary?) or restore, but mostly because the port won't stay connected long enough to do so. This phone has NO liquid sensors tripped, does not have a lot of use on it, only has 17 total hours usage on cellular usage. I have an appointment at the Apple store tomorrow. Is there something I should try in the meantime?
My iphone 5 detects wifi only when near to the router but is not detected if I move a few steps. My brother's iphone 5S and my dad's 5 are working fine with same router. They are able to access it upto 30 feet but i cant even extend it more than 10 feet.
My iphone doesn't stay connected to my home wifi. Anywhere else it stays connected no problem but it never seems to work at home. It's always got a spinning wheel infront of the network. I've tried to 'forget' the network and re-sign up but it has not helped.
I have iPhone 5 and all other members on plan have iPhone4. I still cannot connect to FaceTime with anyone except my iTouch (under a different Apple ID) and have done ALL of the updates, trouble shooting, and followed every step to anything related to FaceTime the Apple Community suggested. I am at a loss as to what the problem could be...it says it is connecting but it never does and I have to end the call to get it to stop. They all can connect and FaceTime to each other but not to me or from me. I am running the latest iOS system, latest update on all Apps, checked restrictions, push notifications, you name it.
As of this morning, everytime I connect my phone to my computer it rapidly connects and disconnects. After searching the web far and wide I've only come up with dead ends. Before today it worked fine, I don't think it's the cord because it works when i tried it with another computer and works when I charge my phone with the wall charger (which I'm forced to do now). Error messages have popped up like 0xE8000001 and 0XE8000065.
I am able to connect to my wifi and it shows with both a check mark and the wireless bars in the top right of my phone that I am connected to wifi but when I try to refresh apps using the internet or pull up the internet browser it says I have no internet connection. I have a tablet the connects to the same network with out any problems and has full internet access so it's something with my phone. I have tried forgetting the network and reconnecting along with resetting my network settings. nothing seems to be working.
I'm running iOS5.1 on my iPhone 4. about 10 days ago (before I got the iOS update), my iPhone stopped connecting to my home network. It's able to detect it and the signal is strong but it won't connect. I'm able to connect to Wifi everywhere else (at the library, my friend's house..etc). I've tried rebooting a couple of times, renewing the lease, reseting network settings, forgetting the network and reconnecting to it. Nothing seems to work so far! I've also tired restarting my router..
...(Time Capsule i.e.). It does not connect to the allocated Airport Express Stations in my house (3G connectivity is just fine). No such problems with my new iPad and Macbook as the do connect to the nearest Airport Express or Timecapsule..
My Wifi Base is a TimeCapsule and I have 2 allocated Airport Express stations to extend the range within the house...
HI my 4 S doesn't take the charge any longer, and sometimes when I turn it off and plug it, it takes a little bit of charge but doesn't hold it long, and the phone get super hot. What should I do to fix that problem, I have donwload all the last version and the phone is only a few months old.
I tried restoring it with no luck, there is no water damage, I didn't try to jailbreak it or anything. It shows up in iTunes, makes all the right noises, even when my friend called me it rang, but the screen is just black.
My iPhone 4 will not connect to my MacBookPro. It will not charge on my MacBookPro, but it will charge on a wall socket and it will play music in a 3rd party speaker system??
I have a new iPhone 4 and i am having difficulty joining my wifi at home, at work it connects straight away but at home it won't recognize the airport connection and states could not access cellular data network. I have tried all the usual resetting network connections etc?
I have an iPhone 5 and whenever i connect it using a USB cord to my laptop to use my Personal Hotspot, my laptop accept it and everything goes well until i want to use the internet. Whenever i want to use the internet the pages dont load for instance google doesn't load and then it tells me no internet access but on my desktop it shows that I have internet.
So my iphone 3gs 16 gig would not charge. Tried it in the computer and wall charger. i read online and most answers was to get a new batterie. Since my iPhone battery was already bad i bought a new one. I installed it right and it started up. However i pluged it in and it would still not charge. This iPhone has caused me so much time and money im ready to throw it out the window.
Info: iPhone 3GS, iOS 5.1, Broke new battery does not start
I'm having problems connecting my N900 to my PC via USB (Mass Storage mode). I've contacted Nokia support twice but haven't heard anything back.When I connect it up, a Windows pop-up from the system tray appears saying "This device will perform faster if plugged into a USB 2.0 slot". File transfers to and from the device are extremely slow.
I've checked out my motherboard, and it only has USB 2.0 slots. I tried them all anyway, and besides, my iPod and other USB devices such as data sticks connect to USB 2.0 no problem at all, using these very same ports.I've tried on a friend's computer, and without having to install anything, the phone instantly popped up, USB 2.0 mode, no problem. What's wrong with my computer? What a I missing? Any suggestions?
My phone was working and just quit. My wifes 8350i connects by USB fine, but mine does not. I did all the resets and a wipe of the phone. Nothing is working to get the USB to work. Is the phone junk? With out the USB I can not load any service books for boost.
I have a blackberry curve 9300.i don't have a data plan but I want to connect to wifi. It connects to the wifi network but it will not let me use the internet any know how to fix it?
My x10i suddenly stopped using the wireless, it connects but can't download any data.Then I found this post here:[URL]..I checked what he said:
I've upgraded my X10i to 2.3.3 Gingerbread recently. I've also installed various programs after that. Wireless was working fine till suddenly applications using the net ceased to connect or download over wireless. Mobile connection works ok but when I switch to wireless, net activity stops. I didn't change any setting on my modem (US Robotics). I also have an Android Pad which can connect through the same modem without any problem, also my wifes laptop doesn't have problems connecting. Then I tweaked further and discovered that my X10i can't resolve domains into IPs. When I use the website's IP to connect everything is fine. I can browse or download within the same website that I connected with its IP but if I try a link to somewhere else or try with the domain name the phone gets stuck trying to connect (surely at the domain resolving state). My local support told me either to use repair on PC Companion or change the modem settings to Wep (it's wpa/wpa2-psk currently) but I want to do neither cuz I can't change every modems setting I come across nor reset the firmware everytime with all my program installed gone to trash. There must be a clear solution, more likely a setting somewhere.
And that's exactly the same problem I have, I can browse when connected with IP addresses but not with domain names. Although my x10 is also upgraded to 2.3, I don't think that's a 2.3 problem. I too think that's a setting problem somewhere.
I'm having major issues with WiFi after the kit Kat update. I've turned off WiFi optimization and my WiFi still automatically turns itself on even though I have WiFi off.
My unit can connect to a working WiFi, but cant browse web or such apps i.e Android Market, FB, Navigation etc. I tried to change WEP and SECURITY on my ROUTER but to no avail.
So, the phone automatically connects to WiFi at my home, but not at my office. It has the WiFi password saved, but I have to manually go into settings and make it join.
Also, and I think this is tied into the WiFi issue, but my emails NEVER sync. The delay has been as bad as four hours.
I've tried connecting my i-phone 4 to my Gateway laptop many times. Each time it connects to my computer the way it should... but then I get a little yellow triangle with an exclamation in it that reads "No Internet Access". BUT.... it is 100% connected to my phone. It says I have all 5 bars of single strength but has no internet connection. Even my phone says that there is one person connected to the personal hotspot.
I've tried using the cord and connecting it mannually, as well as using the "Bluetooth Wi-Fi" option and it's the same deal with both of them.
Yes I have a 3G network. Yes my phone is up to date. Yes I can get internet on my phone using the 3G network. Yes I've gone through step by step to connecting it and no... it still doesn't work.
