I recently bought an iPhone 4S and in general it works great.However, my partner owns an iPhone 4, and when comparing the wakeup time defined as: * Leave the phone locked for around 30 seconds* Press the home or the lock/unlock button (it's irrelevant, this is not a mechanical issue)* Wait until the lock screen appears The one in the iPhone 4 seems to be shorter by around 0.5s. I know it is not much, but I find it a bit disappointing given that this is such a frequent operation. My only guess right now is that this is caused by: a) My particular iPhone 4S which is faultyb) All iPhone 4S are a bit slower to wake up, maybe due to the A5 or other hardware changes?
I am seeing this issue increasing on daily basis. My phone is usually in my pocked (not in doze) or some times lying around on the desk (dozed/not dozed, but still notification should deliver late). But I have noticed that in both situations, I don't receive any notification until I actually turn on the screen.
As soon as I turn the screen on, notifications start to come in all together.. (around 4-5 notification comes together). It seems that they were pending to be delivered but were never delivered to the device until I woke it up and data connection restored.
I understand that in doze mode, notifications are delayed but are delivered, but in my situation they are not even delivered until I turn on the screen and wait a couple to 5 seconds.
- I am on Stock Android without anykind of root (systemless or regular). - I don't have any kind of advanced battery saving mode on or app installed (greenify or clean master etc). - I don't have battery optimization for whatsapp still no notification comes in - I see it on both Wifi and LTE.. - Cellular notifications like sms, mms or calls are not affected with this issue, they come on time.
I noticed between me and my buddies phone that there's a half second delay between the two. Opens apps the same speed and everything else, just when I click the home button to close there's a delay before it does something. Anybody else notice this compared to earlier model 3gs
He got his when they were first released and I got mine 2 weeks ago
I have the problem that when I type something with my Iphone like in Whatsapp or the Messanger or something else it will stuck and after like 5 seconds the typed will pop up in an instant. Also today I restarted it with pressing the Home button and the Power button at the same time and it got to the connect with Itunes screen. I`ve connected it and it works the same as always. The Keyboard gets stuck nearly all the time.
I have a client that needs us to develop an app for them. We wanted to know if anyone has used SMS or Push messaging to wake up a device and request the device "report in" to our server.
I was one of the first couple of dozen in the store on the west coast. I had the Apple Store rep activate the phone for me. He did what he had to do and said it would just be a matter of time. I left.
I came home. It's been two hours and still showing "No Service." 1-800-AppleCare is either busy or disconnects me after a dozen rings.
I called AT&T, and the rep said they were briefed that due to so many activations (thanks a whole helluva lot Europe and the east coast ), activations were delayed with no time estimates given. The AT&T rep did offer to take down my land line number so someone would call me later in the day to confirm or deny that the activation has taken place.
After I updated my iPhone 4S to iOS 5.1 when I press the button it takes about 1-2 seconds for the display to light up for unlocking. Before updating the iOS it lighted immediately.
I check my mails several times a day like the most of you, all of a sudden my iphone 4 decided that I can only do that once after I start the app ??!? If I want to check again 1 minute after and the app is "open" it takes ages (about 2 minutes) before it actually checks the server ?? It's like a 2 minutes delay...
However, if I close the app and open to check again.... it's no problem. So basically I have to close the app (by double clicking the home button) EVERYTIME to be able to check my mails.... isn't that strange ?
Whenever I press the home button to open my iPhone I notice it will still say 3G and within a few seconds change to the wifi icon. Am I mistaken that wifi should stay running even when the phone is closed?
If I run my finger over my sleep wake button it makes a clicky type noise. I've seen this in other devices that use metal, just wanted to know if I was alone on this one!?
Not complaining, just wanting to see if this is normal. Thanks in advance!
My daughter locked her iPhone 4s and can't remember the pass code. We plugged it into the PC and backed it up/synced phone which reset the automatic time delay, but doesn't unlock it.
Ok, so this is probably the worst combination of things to occur. If you don't care about reading the story I'm looking for a way to put my phone into DFU mode without the sleep/wake button. If there is a way to do this please let me know - if you want to know why I need to do this, read below... Thanks.
Last week my sleep wake button mysteriously stopped working. For a time it would work with every 5th or 6th press, but now it doesn't work at all. So for the past week I've had to forgo the use of the sleep/wake button, which means that when I'm done using my phone I had to put it into my pocket and hope I didn't hit anything until it shut itself off.
It's been manageable, but I have dreaded the day that my iPhone froze or anything, because I have effectively no way to restart the the device. Turns out that day was this evening - it froze while I was in Gmail, and I was unable to do anything. Home button was non-responsive - basically the whole OS locked up. Now obviously if I had a working sleep/wake button I could have probably held down both that and the home screen and forced the iPhone to restart - clearly I don't have that option in this case...
Worse yet, I decided to try to fix my sleep/wake button, so I took my phone apart. I wasn't able to really figure out what was going on with the sleep/wake button, and while I had the case cracked open it died. Once I got everything plugged in again, the phone turned back on, and sat at the Apple logo screen for a long time, after which it superimposed a spinning wheel over top of the logo. Truth be told, I don't think that disconnecting the screen had anything to do with the spinning wheel, I think it's a result of the OS completely locking up (the likes of which I've never seen the iPhone do before... so something in the OS must have become corrupted... at least that's my theory anyway).
It has been/continues to be stuck in this loop. I'm not sure whether letting the device die and naturally resetting itself will do the trick. I'm leaning towards the idea that it probably won't help the situation. I have not yet tried to do a restore, because I'm worried that it won't work, and then I'll lose my backup as well.
So yah... does anyone know how to force the iPhone into DFU mode without the sleep/wake button?
Anyone see this on their new iPhone 4? Thats the only thing that seems wrong with mine (No yellowing and i havn't noticed reception issues.) Funny thing, i can only notice the flicker when the screen is in some sort of light, if i wake it from sleep in a dark room you can't see a flicker. I just really hope that this doesn't mean something is wrong with the screen because like i said, everything else is perfect.
Is anyone's sleep/wake button a little loose/wiggley? Same with the volume buttons. When I'm handling the phone I can hear it moving, it sounds and feels cheap I just want to know if everyone's is like this?
I am using a bumper as of yesterday, maybe I'm just now noticing it.
Got my iPhone 4 yesterday. Noticing something odd about the sleep/wake button. It wiggles very slightly to the left <-> right. I feels slightly loose. It isn't really bothering me, I just want to make sure the button is not like going to fall off lol
The movement is soo slight, but it also causes a very faint click sound if I rotate my iPhone. Edit: Well apparently the noise if the autofocus in the camera. But the original issue remains to be explained.
Everything else on my phone works just fine! Reception is great, screen is beautiful! Everything works! (Except this slightly loose sleep/wake button)
I dropped my iphone 4 today on concrete today, face down surprisingly though, the screen is still in perfect condition. HOWEVER, the sleep/wake button is no longer responding. What should I do?
It just suddenley stopped working? The button works, its not stuck. But the iphone wont sleep or wake? I mean its not a huge deal, I do not really take screenshots but how will I restart my phone? Can I never let it turn off now?
My iPhone won't turn off, and the Sleep/Wake button is broken. This has been going on for months now, and I've tried restoring it and everything. What do I do?
I have iphone 5 and my sleep/wake button is not working. i checked replacement program you should change my iphone. i m living Istanbul, Turkey. I went Zorlu Center Apple Store and they checked my iphone and they said "this iphone come from USA and we can't change this iphone" i m using everytime iphone since 2009.
My iphone 5 was fully charged when it suddenly turned off.
I googled the problem and found many responses that suggested to reset the phone by holding onto the sleep/wake button and the home button for 15 seconds ...
however as my sleep/wake button is broken I can't reset it that way ...
I also tried plugging it into the charger which didnt work ...
I want to know EXACTLY how i should charge my iphone 4s. So far i have been setting my alarm to wake me up so i can disconect my phone to prevent overcharging. Is it okay if i use my laptop to charge my phone everyday, will using my laptop harm my battery,note my laptop must be charging also in order for it to charge my phone. If i leave my phone pluged into my laptop does my phone overcharge or does it stop charging when it reches 100%. and will leaving it plugged in affect my battery in anyway? I have read that lithium batteries dont overcharge but i also read soemthing that said it will mess up your batter, and is it true that fully discharging it and fully charging all the time is bad? and i heard that i should partialy charge it sometimes not to kill battery life?
I've just had my iPhone 4 replaced by Apple, as the sleep/wake button was continually becoming stuck in a rigid position.Â
Unfortunately, after the phone was replaced (and the data on the old handset deleted), I realised that - for some reason - my iCloud contacts were not up-to-date (I reckon I'm about 100 short). I'm missing key contacts from my phonebook.Â
However, when writing a text message on the new handset, I can click on the "To" field and start typing the name of contacts who were in the phonebook on my last handset (but not in the phonebook on the new one) and their name appears.Â
For example, the contact "Louise Thomson" is not in the Contacts app on the new handset, but was in there on the old one. However, when I start typing "Louise Thomson" into the "To" field of a text message, her contact details bizarrely appear, and I can send her a text.Â
Firstly, why is this happening? How are the details making their way onto the new handset, if they are not updated on iCloud? And, why are they not appearing in phonebook?Â
Secondly, and more importantly, how I can add all the contacts (IE the ones available to text) with a single click?Â
