I received my Iphone as a gift 2 months ago. It was bought in China from an official Apple store. I then went to my local service provider and received a micro-sim on a pay-as-you-go deal. Phone worked perfectly for 2 and half months. I did the 5.1.1 update two nights ago and now the phone is saying: "Only compatible sim cards from a supported carrier may be used to activate iPhone. Please insert the sim card that came with your iPhone or visit a supported carrier store to receive a replacement sim card."
I visited both VODACOM (in South Africa) and IStore (3rd party retailer of APPLE as there is NO Apple store in Africa). I put in the original AT&T sim, the phone switched on and recognises me but obviously there is no service because AT&T is not in South Africa. I then put in my Vodacom sim and it rejects it. I used the phone perfectly for 2+months and since the update this problem occured.
I've upgraded my iPhone 3GS to iOS v. 5.1.1 and now both my phone service and data service are no longer working. I called AT&T's (my carrier) tech support and they got it working for a few minutes but as soon as I got off the phone with the agent it stopped working! My account with them is current.
My phone was unlock and working alright. Then I passed it to my granddaughter. She try to upgrade it and sync it with iTunes . Suddenly just display no service.
Anyone can let me have AT&T's email address for asking help to unlock my old iPhone 3G. A relative gave it to me last year. It work alright with my Vodafone sim till I try to upgrade it lately. Now it just go into no service. I were told AT&T lock it again when I try to upgrade.
i recently upgraded the iOS of my OLD 3GS device & to my nightmare it stopped working. Now i get "NO SIM ERROR", which doesn't allow me to do anything.
When i visited the local Apple store their response was pathetic, they tried selling me another 3GS. my phone was working fine until i decided to keep the OS up to date. Now i feel that was one of the biggest mistake as Apple doesn't take ownership of its own products, the tech support told me the same thing "when you upgrade iOS on an old device, you are basically doing it at your own risk" ... WOW, i was blown off. Now that my phone has stopped working i'm looking for a solution from apple else this is definitely going to be a serious matter.
Siri suddenly not working with upgrade to iOS 8.1.1.?no response to re-storing software. microphone appears to be working.Siri just doesn't respond to voice command.
For some reason, the native Maps app is not loading on my iPhone 6 after the most recent upgrade to 8.1.1. All I see is a blank screen ! The Google Maps app is working perfectly fine. I have tried rebooting several times but that doesn't fix the problem.
Has anyone else had this problem? In the description t said something cryptic about a future stable 4.0 release. I upgraded anyway (3gs 3.1.2 blackra1n) and now its not working. The options are still in the settings app, but i cant reply from the lock screen, and when i get sms/mms from any app or home screen, there is no "reply" button like usual, just view and close (like before i had quickreply sms).
Anyone else having this problem as well? And is there any way to downgrade it to an older ver so i can get it working again? I tried reinstalling it 3 times (officially purchesed)
I have an iPhone 3Gs and after upgrading to iOS 5.1 the bottom row of the keypad/keyboard does not function properly. More specifically, when I press the ".?123" button the SHIFT key activates and when I press the "return" key the backspace button is activated instead. I also cannot press the "space" key. This only happens in portrait/vertical mode. It's normal in landscape/horizontal mode. This problem only occurs when the keyboard is active. All other touchscreen activity is normal. Again, this only started to happen after I upgraded to iOS 5.1. I have reset the network settings, reset the phone and hard reset the phone.
I am having trouble with my home button not responding. It will happen intermittently. It will drive me crazy for days, then I will not have any trouble for weeks. I think it started after the last upgrade to IOS 5.1
I have an iphone 3GS and have recently updated to 5.1.1 Now the contacts app doesn't work. I cannot call from the list and I can't add or edit contacts within the app. I have tried a software restore but this hasn't worked. ICloud contacts is on.
My exchange email worked just find with previous OS, not with both my Iphone and Itouch 3rd Gen Exchange email does not show anything other than folders, i have tried deleting account and re adding and restoring new phone or itouch factory settings with no luck. any idea's?
I have a problem with the camera on my Iphone 4. I upgraded it yesterday and the camera stopped working after that. I also restored it afterwards when I saw that the camera didn't work. I only get the grey "lens picture" and everything is frozen.
I need to restore my iPhone (currently OS 3.1.2) back to its original factory setting. If I do this through iTune, will I have to upgrade to the new OS 4.0?
I don't wish to do that, as I have a new ibootrom, so I near that jail breaking in the new OS is not yet possible unless I have made some smart decision in the past, which I don't know if I did. Anyway, is there anyway I can restore factory settings WITHOUT upgrading to the latest firmware, ie. keep in 3.1.2?
i downloaded an upgrade from itunes last night to os5.1 i think. it said there was a problem with the download. now my phone will not work at all. it just has a picture of the itunes logo ans a picture of a usb cable on it. my computer will not recognise phone either
I upgraded my Tour's OS to version 5 because after the last time I upgraded App World, the icon disappeared. After I upgraded to OS5, the App World Icon reappeared, but BlackBerry Messenger stopped working - even after reinstalling the application, battery pulls, reboots, etc. All I get is an error message about Java when I try to start.
After upgrading the software on my BB, the SMS & MMS took all of my messages and put them into one long conversation that I can't delete. All new text messages appear in that conversation, and I can't delete them either. The title of the conversation is the name of sender of the first message, and it names all new messages as that person, even if it isn't them. Also the graphics keep glitching when I scroll through the opened conversation. And sometimes the enter button won't even work to allow me to send sms in reply. I don't text all that often, but my coworkers want to contact me via sms.
I just upgrade iphone 3gs with ios 5.1.1 and now its not working, its "says only compatiable SIM cards from a supported carier may be used to activate iPhone. Please insert the SIM card that came with ur iphone or visit a supported carriers store to receive a replacement SIM card"..i took it from a friend, m not sure weather it was unlocked, but when i took it from him i was able to use it untill i upgraded it. It was bought in UK nd m in Mumbai (India).
i updated my software as i was having problems with the widgets sometimes crashing. since i updated it, my facebook, and weather widgets will not work at all. i can't even access them from the applications menu. the last time i had problems like these the phone was sent off for repair and i didnt get it back, i was given a replacement after 30 days of waiting. does anyone have any ideas on how i could fix this myself? i dont want to have to send the phone off again and re-buy all my games etc. i tried re-updating the software again, no joy. will be getting rid of this phone in april.
When I try downloading the new facebook upgrade 2.0 it says sorry, your device does not meet the system requirements that are needed to support facebook ?
I recently upgraded to (according to my phone) version 5.0.0.1067, platform 5.20.96. Since this upgrade I can no longer use my browser to do anything. It shows at the bottom that it's "requesting" the site, then it changes to "loading" and gets stuck there forever. The blue bar at the bottom indicating how much has loaded will go all the way over to the other side, in about 15 minutes, but never loads anything.
I haven't changed any settings with the browser. I have icons for my email and for facebook and can still receive updates/emails so it's even more confusing to me as my internet is obviously working.
I apologize if this has been answered already, I went through 5 pages of questions in the forum and had not seen anything yet. I've tried taking the battery out about 10 times, I've cleared all of the history, cache and cookie cache and noticed that there isn't any "pushed" content.
I am new to this and not overly tech savy so pls excuse me in advance! I completed an upgrade on my Desire this morning when prompted to do so on the handset. Since then I have noticed my WIFI is not working. If I turn it on, it goes to "scanning" but has been doing this for nealry 2 hours. I have turned off and back on, also taken battery out for a few minutes and nothing.
I recently upgraded the firmware of my Nokia E71 to the latest version i.e. 500-21-009. I followed the instructions in Nokia site and took complete backup before upgrading and restored entire stuff after upgrade. Now, though my settings are intact as it was before upgrade and my operator (Airtel) also confirmed that my GPRS subscription is active, I can not connect to Web nor can check my emails. Whenever I attempt to browse, it gives an error message saying 'Connection Not available'! In fact, I checked inserting my CIM card to another Nokia phone and could browse Internet with same GPRS settings as in E71.
I have a very oldCK-200, which had 1.21 SW, and I updated it yesterday to 4.0 ... remote no longer works, and I did try the ignition off/remove control head/power on with switch after 30 seconds...
