I have an iPhone 3gs, and I recently updated to the most recent version. When it did this, it completely wiped out everything I had on my iPhone. I've never had a computer for it, and just used my sisters when I visited my parents.
So I plugged into my dads laptop, (which has never seen my iPhone), opened his empty iTunes, and pushed an update through. It literally took everything I had and trashed it. Luckily (maybe), I was able to go to my sisters computer and find the last update. AN ENTIRE YEAR AGO! So I have a bunch of outdated contacts and apps. the worst part, though, is that I have about 20 paid apps that I CANNOT find out how to get onto my iPhone. "Sync iPhone" does nothing, and "Transfer Purchases" does nothing either.

I finally updated to 5.1 after getting my wife a new iPhone 4... well, needless to say itunes FAILED to create any sort of a back-up and wiped out my photographs, my contacts, my e-mails - my text messages - everything.

So does it really wipe your device data if you fail to unlock it 10 times or is it just to scare people? Also, how do I change it so it says something else? Or so it doesn't wipe device data?

Last night, it seems my world totally collapsed when I discovered my Blackberry Bold 9900 was factoring setting up, everything gone, my text messages with important information, my photos, BBM contacts, saved password and data, my calendar appointments, both email accounts and all my new contact details. I'm just devastated, just so shocked. If I could cry, I would.

My BB Torch 9810 stopped working. Worked with carrier no luck was sent a new phone. I was told that I could go through BB website to have all data wiped from the device. Can anyone confirm that this will indeed wipe all date from the phone even though it will not turn on, has no battery, SIM card or media card in it?

My phone was stolen and I know who has it but I can't get it back from that person yet and Im worried that the person does something to my phone. Although I have a password lock on it and my Mum called up the company to lock the phone I am worried that the persona will attempt at the password more than 10 times which would cause my phone to wipe everything. I have just about everything on the phone that I need for my lessons and also notes/planning on a couple of my subjects so I was wondering if its possible to recover it if the person does wipe the phone....

My sons curve just reset itself in the middle of a text message... white screen... WIPING...He lost everything, all his settings, contacts, everything.I phoned O2 whose helpdesk had just shut, who said they knew nothing about any activities going to happen, but my son got lots of random emails and messages from his friends saying it was going to happen. Because they were from his friends, and because they get a lot of spam and stuff and we hadn't had any official notification of anything happening I told him to ignore it until we got an official message whch we didn't.I have just re-enabled Mobile Services and got him connected again - but I'd like to know what happened and why.

I was experiencing sluggish performance on my s6, it was taking ages for my contacts to appear when trying to dial them, I fixed this by going on to apps>contacts>clear data and cached data. However it came at a price. many of my contacts have now disappeared. is there anyway i can restore them?

recover data that did not back-up when I connected my BB Bold but updated software to the recommended 6.0. Admittedly, it was my first time trying to back-up data in over a year so I think the computer OS MAC perceived it as a first time connection?

I have a Blackberry Bold 9900 with IMEI 35856604xxxxxx, I did an update for the software version 7.1.0 Bundle 2061 however I entered the password 5 times due to a non functional button on my keyboard and all data was wiped. Unfortunately I do not have a backup and I lost all my contacts and media files. Is there a way to rollback knowing that I did previously an upgrade for the software version over the air, so probably my data is stored somewhere on RIM servers.

I was using Blackberry Desktop software with my BB Curve 8530 and could not remember the password for my BB... I entered it many times unsuccessfully. I didn't notice that it started to proceed to wipe the phone! How/can I restore my data and contacts? I don't use BB Desktop Software much so I don't have a backup. I really want my contacts... are they linked to my email (hotmail) account at all so that when I setup my phone my contacts will be recovered?

I changed my password on my curve, and I couldn't remember it and I got it wrong 10 times. It then said wiping and it wiped all my data. Luckily, I had a backup, however it wasn't very recent so I have lost a few contacts, but more importantly, all of my pictures. Is there any way at all that I can get them back?

When I plugged my phone into the computer to charge, an update came up on bb desktop manager - to update to the 6.0 Bundle 2467 - and I began the update. After a few minutes I realized that I should back up my phone before updating but bb desktop wouldn't let me - it said that IT needed to update. So the device software update paused until the desktop update was complete. When it was finished, the device update continued...and I didn't backup.
Somewhere in the middle of the update (after about a half hour) the phone blinked, there was a funny "beep" and a message came up that the update could not continue. The phone had rebooted but was stuck at about 65%. I let it sit for a few minutes, still not moving. Pulled the battery, let it sit for a few minutes like that and re-inserted. Started to reboot, then stalled again at the same spot. Pulled the battery after another few minutes and waited about 15 minutes.
When I put the battery back in, the phone quickly booted up completely...but because the updater stalled mid-update Everything is lost! Contacts, Calendar, Memos. Is there any way at all to recover anything?? Or is all my data lost somewhere in cyberspace? There is a small file, about 5MB called Blackberry Contacts so I thought I could sync the files from there, but I don't know how!

Ok, i have updated my phone so many times and nothing has ever gone wrong, i have always backed up my files in the "Backup and Restore" App and there has never been a problem. I have just updated my phone with latest update and it has wiped my Apps including the "Backup and Restore" app! (My files are always sent to my memory card with no problem) Now i cannot restore any of my files and its really F***ed me off, The Xperia 10 has to be the faultiest phone i have ever had, even when the phone is locked and in my pocket it manages to change my settings and forwards messages to random people!

after the update was finished all my contacts were gone all the photos for the past year and a half everything on my SD card was completely gone even my sim card didn't have any more contacts on it. It was updating when I went back inside and didn't even pump me for the update or to remove my sd card.

On June 10, I received a notification that there was a new update available to the Internet e-mail setup application. I can't access my em-mail settings without downloading the update. I downloaded the update, and, after rebooting, there was an error message saying the software couldn't be found! There was nothing on my phone besides a white screen with a long list of software file names. I couldn't go past this screen, make phone calls, text, or even power down without pulling the battery out! BB Tech Support was able to help me reinstall the operating system and restore evertyhing through the desktop software (sadly my last sync was 4 months ago so I lost all of my apps).To this day, it still prompts me to download the update when I try to access the E-mail Setup application. I don't remember what version the update was on June 10 but the version showing is 6.11.0419.0755. I need to access this application but I'm terrified to download the update.

Updated the phone yesterday after Sony released new update to Lollipop ( meant to fix all the bugs that lollipop had) and my ENTIRE card was wiped. Over 2500 songs gone in an instant. I am so totally over this whole android Sony screw up I can't even express it in words.

AT&T and iPhone data use charges - WiFi and cellular link options Many people have complained about unusual data usage charges on their AT&T iPhone bills -- often 10s of megabytes in one transaction, posted in the middle of the night. Here are a couple of updates based on the AT&T support portal: WiFi vs cellular link: Connecting to a local WiFi hotspot and turning off your cellular data connection will block cellular data transmission and related charges. (Except for SMS messages, which are very small.) There are some gotchas, however: (a) If your iPhone goes 'to sleep' (the screen goes black), it will revert to the cellular data link, unless it is plugged into a charger. (b) Even if your iPhone is plugged into a charger, it will revert to a cellular data connection if the WiFi link drops, e.g. due to a momentary glitch with your internet provider or electric power supply, so.... (c) The only way to completely ensure that your iPhone will not revert to a cellular data connection is to turn it completely off. You (obviously) will not be able to receive calls, however.
Large data transactions in the middle of the night: Unusually large 'chunks' of data that are apparently sent around midnight are a related issue. You may think that you could avoid these mystery charges by making sure you have a WiFi connection running at night. A number of 'czars' on AT&T's site stated, however, that this is are simply an artifact of AT&T's billing system, which "aggregates" transactions that occur throughout the day into one summary charge, which is posted in the middle of the night. If this is accurate, the data connection(s) you use throughout the day will determine how large this 'summary' transaction will be.
Note: Our bill does not appear to square with AT&T's explanation. For example:
39 04/06/2012 09:36PM phone Data Transfer 7 KB 0.0040 04/06/2012 10:35PM phone Data Transfer 7 KB 0.0041 04/06/2012 10:41PM phone Data Transfer 369,759 KB 30.00
If all of the data from 6 April was 'rolled up' into the massive 369.8 megabyte transaction at 10:41pm, why are there two small transactions at 9:36pm and 10:35? We installed Onavo to try to get to the bottom of this;; I will post the results at the end of the current billing cycle.

I finished my first indoor run today and the run data on the motoactv device and treadmill don't match. I completed my workout and came home and synced my data. Is there a way to update the run data on the website to match the treadmill data or does the update have to happen on the device prior to syncing?

I went to clear out cache data in my apps the other day and noticed almost all programs show 12.00Kb cache sizes, but the app data listed has grown to ridiculous sizes. Facebook, all Google programs, etc. Nearly every installed program. Facebook's shows its app data at almost 200 MB!!! Wtf?! It's less than a 15MB program, so clearly the cache files are being stored as app data, and therefore cannot be removed without wiping configs for the programs.

So i was sitting in front of my phone this morning, when all of a sudden it just switched off and went into remote wipe mode. I then got an email from iCloud:Fantastic!! Maybe it was mind control or something!! I then got very pannicky and changed my apple ID password thinking that someone had got hold of it. I've restored from a backup on my computer because when i tried to do it from the Setup new iPhone > Restore from iCloud backup, it said 'No backups availiable'. I guess i hadn't switched on iCloud backups....but i thought i had! So i've got my stuff back via iTunes backup but lost days of data since the last computer backup was early March.
