I have an 3g (IOS 4.2.1) and I've upgraded my phone so am going to give the 3g to my mother. I chose to "erase iPhone" in the settings - removing all my media, contact, apps etc...which the phone told me would take two hours. I forgot to plug the phone into the charger and the battery died sometime during this process and displayed the empty red battery symbol. When I realised this I plugged it in - and that was 13 hours ago. Now the phone has the apple icon on the screen and when you touch the screen it has the empty red battery symbol on it. It won't switch on or anything. Have killed the phone by trying to erase all my content and restore it to the factory settings? I wondered if it was "stuck" on the restore and I needed to gick it a kick start? But I don't know what to do. Any advice will be appreciated!
When I connect my iPhone to my new Macbook, it says it's already synced with another iTunes library. I don't want to erase anything, I just want to have my new Macbook to be where I plug my iPhone in from now on.
I have been trying to sync a custom ringtone (m4r) on my Iphone4, but Itunes keeps telling me "My Iphone is synced with another Itunes Library." and that it will erase my iphone and the itunes library. My Iphone only has Apps on it. I already have the Apps automatically synced. I don't have Music or Videos on my Iphone4 since I have those synced automatically only to my Ipod. I have the Ringtone file already placed in my Itunes library under TONES. I tried dragging it into my Iphone4 Tones and it won't let me. If I try to check "Sync Tones" and apply, the message about erasing my Iphone comes up every time. I only use one computer & one itunes so I don't know why the message about my Itunes library pops up. My question is should I just sync the Tones even though it says it will erase? I mean what would the syncing erase when I only have apps on the Iphone?
to erase my data and sell the phone. It is 4.0.1 jailbreakme.com and Ultrasn0w 1.1-1. Surely there is something on Cydia that will do this. Have searched and the only thing I see is erase all data and rejailbreak. I am worried I will end up upgrading the phone and not be able to jailbreak. Any help?

I have an iPhone 4S running iOS 8.1.1 and iTunes 12.0.1. When I updated iTunes recently to the new version, 12.0.1 it unchecked the Manually Manage Music and Videos option on my iPhone's summary page. I just want to re-enable this feature without having to spend the time re-installing all my music and playlists. Is there a way to enable this feature without erasing my music and videos?

The BB had very sensitive data on it so it would be advisable to erase its harddrive. According to one of the threads in Tech Support this can be done but I do not have the slightest idea whom I should contact regarding this matter, and if the remote destruction of the data is possible at all. The device has been bought off a shelf at a shop not through a GSM operator.
I need to find out how to unlock a password without erasing anything on the phone. There are only 4 more attempts left out of 10. This is a blackberry curve. The reason I need to get into this phone is it was my sons and there are messages on it. He can't tell me the password because he passed away and as his mom I need some answers and contacts of his. I took it to verizon and they told me they couldn't do it because if they lost the info they didn't want to be liable.
Having issues performing factory resets? My Nexus 5 seems incapable of completing it. So far I have tried doing a factory reset from the settings menu 4 times. Every single time it locks up on the erasing step. I don't mean it takes a little longer. I have let it sit for almost half an hour and the little android robot sits there taunting me.Every time I have had to manually go into the bootloader and sideload a factory image, which works fine.
My Nexus 5 running Lollipop was constantly crashing so I decided to factory reset. I am stuck on the 'Erasing...' screen, I had a dead Android come up, when I tried to power off an on the 'Erasing...' screen came back.

I had downloaded the new OTA patch about 3 days ago and noticed a lot of battery drain. So I tried to factory reset it and now its just stuck on Erasing with Green Android working. It had, I guess crashed, with the red triangle and I had to hard reset the phone which is now back at Erasing.
I have a Blackberry Pearl 8100, it's started erasing my messages and call logs. When it starts doing it, it will delete messages before I even have a chance to recieve them, or read them. It will also freeze up while loading some applications.I've checked my memory and it says I have 11379836 bytes free. I have a memory card so the only things saved on the phone are the defaults and one picture. The only way to fix the messages thing is to take the battery out for a few minutes but it ends up doing it four or five times within a day.

Each time I try and sync my iPhone it gives me an error message that says "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone because the iPhone disconnected" What is going on here? Backed up phone restored software, etc. Nothing is fixing the issue.
Now this is speaking from a DEVELOPER point of view. Would you like to see iPhone exclusivity stop? To me, yes, obviously, because this means the App Store can be in more hands, and my apps can have a MUCH larger audience. Yes I know there is a lot of market share already, but look at VZW, T-Mob etc and if we got their eyes on our apps. you should be able to fill in the rest. What do you think from a developer point of view?
