IPhone :: OS 5.1 Bluetooth And WIFI Shortcuts Are Broken?
Mar 19, 2012
After the update this weekend, my 'desktop' shortcut to WIFI and BLUETOOTH have died. This scheme was set up through OS 5.0. Apple removed this scheme to configure this, so how do I put it back? (The update also killed my alarm clock and stand alone-battery charging too, but both of these I can live without...)
A friend gave me an old iPhone 3g running iOS 4.2.1. It has a broken wifi chip an apparent flaw in this model of phone. Are there anyways to have it get network access without using the cellular data network or wifi bands?
I want a widget that opens the wifi network selection screen. I have tried Elixir widgets (1 and 2) and power togglea as well as looking for Settings Shortcuts in the widget selection menu from the home screen, all to to no avail. Is there something I've missed with one of these options?
Before the 8.1 update, my 1520 used to connect perfectly to my car and allow me to:
1. Send and reply to texts using my voice only 2. Play music that was on my phone on the car audio system. 3. Make and answer calls through the car audio.
After the update, I can only make and answer calls.!When I receive a text, the message is read out and I can dictate a reply and correct it but no matter how many times I say "send", it NEVER sends it! It's almost like it can't recognise the word. It does recognise it though because I can use the word "send" in a message.
As for music, my car recognised that bluetooth audio is available and also the name of the track, but it won't play it at all.My phone behaves in exactly the same way in my wife's car too. Before the update, it worked perfectly there too.
Each time I turn off a bluetooth device and then turn it back on again, my phone no longer auto connects.I have been through all the settings.Is this a known bug with this OS release?
I recently update my X8 to 2.1-update 1 and have been seeing problems with connecting to wifi. I had no issues before with connecting to a network, but now have been seeing the message : Data Connectivity Proble: The server failed to communicate. Try again later. This happens even though the network is detected to having good signal, but I can't actually use it. I have already tried restoring under the backup and restore function, restoring my system settings, but this does not work. I have also tried to download settings for internet, but this doesn't work either. Or is there a way to restore my old settings so that my wifi will work normally?
Got a fairly major issue with my Sony Experia Z3 (on Virgin mobile contract). Had an update and now wifi and bluetooth won't turn on. Turning on it just flicks back. It's not my home wifi, and is definitely a software issue on the phone, (was working all day, updated as soon as I connected to my home network when I got back in the evening). Have tried restarting, factory data reset and re-installing 3 times via PC Companion. Nothing works.
For the last several weeks neither the WiFi nor the Bluetooth will turn on. When selecting to turn on WiFi is starts to turn on then stops and displays Error. About 75% of the time after attempting to turn on the WiFi the phone will reboot. I have factory reset the phone and the WiFi and Bluetooth will work once after the reset but once the phone sleeps neither WiFi nor Bluetooth will operate. This is even after a power down. I have checked my settings and can't find anything that would cause this.
home button went out first then power button ive seen and tried the videos on Internet.. some work for about a day then my home button goes back to not working... not sure what to do. my phones warrenty and what not is to no use..
i have some problems with my iphone 3gs 8gb bought from UK, i Updated for 5.01 and since then i saw that i don`t have signal ,wi-fi ,bluetoth. now i tryed to restore to main software but i think something `cause it`s stuck on Itunes display (the drawing like you buy it from shop) and when i try to RESTOR I keep getting and ERROR (-1) .
my 4gs works fine, except.... the wi fi in general settings is not able to turn on. the icon stays light gray and does not respond to touch the bluetooth shows 'off' and then sits & 'spins' when i tap it. ive re synced, re set, etc
im having a problem with my wi-fi and bluetooth. they will not connect at all. i do have full 3G network and full carrier service. but my bluetooth will not work, and my wi-fi will not work.
