how to deal with an iPhone app that has frozen in mid-update without deleting it and re-installing it? I don't want to loose the saved data in it but it just won't play ball...
I know its a little thing but is anyone else getting mildly frustrated that, since your apps are all running "frozen" in the background, when you open them up they're in exactly the same state you left them?
Drives me nuts with phone! If I call someone from my contacts, then hang up, the next time I go to make a phone call I have to back out of the last contact I called and go back to the main phone screen.
And Facebook has to be manually updated when you open it now.
I know...little things, but the phone contacts is driving me nuts!
iTunes has frozen my account and I can't download any apps free or not they took there payment of5.16 that I owed them then they took it four more time and my account is still blocked up?
received automated message re latest update to iOS this morning via iTunes. Connected iPhone, downloaded update, started to load to 'phone then it stopped with the status bar (below apple logo) on 'phone ~85% complete.
I attempted to do an ios update tonight...I think it was from 5.0 to 5.01 (not sure). It went through the downloading process and I believe it was at the point of restarting/installing, not quite sure, I wasn't totally paying attention. But then I got a message from iTunes saying that an unknown error occurred and the update could not be completed. Now my phone appears to be completely screwed.
I'm left with a screen on my phone that has the iTunes logo at the top and below is an image of the iPhone USB connector. I can't get away from the screen...turn off/on, hard reset, etc all takes me back to that same screen. What's worse, my iTunes is no longer showing my phone as an option. It's like my phone is no longer recognized at all. I've unplugged and plugged it back in several times. I've restarted iTunes, restarted my computer, etc.
So about 20 minutes ago I connected my iPhone to my computer and iTunes prompted me to update it. I accepted, but as it was applying the updates some type of error popped up. Long story short, it failed to update and now when I turn on my phone it's frozen with the screen showing the USB cord & iTunes icons. I've tried: -Shutting it down by holding the sleep/power button-Shutting it down by holding the Home + sleep/power button-All of my USB ports on my computer-Reinstalling iTunes As soon as I turn it on, it briefly shows the Apple icon then it goes back to the same screen with the iTunes/USB icons. When I connect it to my computer it makes the connection sound but it won't register on iTunes.
I have an iPhone 5s 16GB that has been installing the new iOS 8 update (8.1.2 I believe?). After being prompted to install the update, I agreed to the terms & conditions and hit "install." After seemingly flying through the first 9/10ths of the update, the progress bar under the Apple logo has not moved for a solid few hours now. I have not had this problem with previous updates. Is there any action that I should/can take without wiping everything from the phone?
Does anyone know how to fix my iphone as right now its an expensive paper weight,as all i can see is the screen that states plug into itunes, and when I do it states needs restoring, I try this and comes up with an error 6 .
Last night I received a software iOS 7.2 update for my iPhone 5 and iPad. when the software was nearly completed both the iPhone and iPad froze. I can't even turn them off now. What should I do?
This morning I downloaded and started to install the latest iOS software update and the phone has frozen.... I have the screen with the apple logo and the bar graph the has stopped half way along during the installation phase... What do i do.... I cannot contact apple support cause they want a serial number which I cannot get while the phone is frozen...
I updated my IOS overnight and this morning tried to go through the setup. I got stuck on the terms and conditions page and now am unable to press next.
While doing a software update and trying to update my phone, the update was not successful and my phone froze up with a picture of a usb connection pointing to the iitunes logo.

My iPhone 4 was in the middle of an update and froze. I tried to turn it off but now it has a blank screen and is buzzing, cannot get it to shut off, or stop buzzing. I did not get it wet, and I have no idea what to do next.

When I connected my blackberry to the desktop software, I noticed that there was an update from version 7.0 Bundle 1672 to 7.0 Bundle 2395. I selected Update and now the update appears to be frozen. however I am told that if i disconnect, it could render the device unusable. See screenshot.
I am attempting to update the OS on my BB Bold 9700, as suggested by the BB Deskyop Sofware. The update started and seemed to be progressing but about 3/4 of the way through it is frozen at "Loading module"net_rim_speech_data_en_US.cod".
What should I do? The system warns "do not disconnect your device or stop this process as it could make your device unusable"
Later: I solved this problem by disconnecting the phone from the PC and downloading the OS6 package from the Blackberry.com/Downloads site, re-installing the Blackberry Deskop Sofware and re-starting the update process, this time with all power saving on the PC turned off.
My son has a blackberry curve 9360 and was doing an update. The phone was trying to restart to complete the process and has got stuck. It keeps trying to restart over and over again. We don't even get to the menu. We have tried removing the battery and tried to restart by pressing the alt, aA(arrow) and del button together but it doesn't work.
My Torch froze whilst updating software and is stuck on 14% and has been for the last 3 hours. I have taken the battery out a few times in the hope it would re start but it just goes straight back to the same page when it loads up.
my blackberry torch 9810 started updating to the new software this morning, however has been frozen for the last few hours. I have removed the battery and then turned it back on, and its still frozen, ive also plugged it into the computer onto the blackberry desktop manager but it still does not work!
Yea so today at around 2 pm I restarted my phone and when it restarted and new icon appeared saying an update was available so I clicked on it and said why not that would be good. 5 hours later it still hasn't completed and the screen on the phone said only 2 hours. The overall backup progress is frozen at 16%.
I have just updated my Blackberry Curve 8520 to version 5.0. It required me to reboot the blackberry so I did and now that it has loaded up I get a message saying 'To start using your Blackberry (R) smartphone, you will need to confirm the languages that you use.' and a highlighted button saying 'Continue'. Thing is, I can't press any buttons or scroll through writing or anything. No buttons, though I can use 'alt' and 'caps. There doesn't seem to be a signal either. I take the battery out and put it back in but when the Blackberry loads up again the same screen comes up. I know it has updated because the loading screen is different.
