IPhone :: "find My Phone" Application Is Not Working?
Jun 19, 2012
My "find my phone" application is not working. Could the thief have turned location services off without the phone requiring a password to turn off location services? For security purposes, iphone should require your password before the phone will turn off location services. If it does not, then the iphone is not as awsome as I thought it was.
Info:
iPhone 4S, I don't know what operating system
My iPhone 4S has stopped holding a charge overnight. I've wiped it clean and reinstalled the software. What could be running that would cause this to happen? Bluetooth is off and a few location services are on but nothing that hasn't been on the last six months before this stared happening.
I've been using a daily horoscope program with no problem since I first got my phone a few months ago. Today when I went to use it, it told me an update was available, so I choose to accept the update. When it asked if I wanted to reboot/restart the phone now or later, I selected now. The phone proceeded to update the software and now I can't use my phone at all.
I tried connecting my phone to my computer so I could restore it, but desktop manager says it can't communicate with my phone. And when I plug in the power cord, my phone doesn't even register that it's charging up. So, since so much of my life is connected to my phone, and I can't use my phone at all, I'm squirming. Of course, AT&T online tech support is closed Sundays; I guess nobody else has a phone emergency on Sundays. All I get is a white screen that tells me to reload software.
My iPhone 4 was stolen out of my hand earlier today. My iPhone was turned on and in use at the time it was grabbed. The 'Find my iPhone' app was installed on device and GPS was turned on (was looking at a map at the time).
The police asked for my apple id and we logged into 'find my iphone' application shortly after the incident. My 3 devices were listed and iPhone was displaying with 'No location' status. Approximately 2 hours after the incident my iPhone device (1 of 3 total devices) simply disappeared as a device from the interface. If the device was only turned off by thief my understanding is that it would simply show 'No location'. Does anyone know what could have happened or how the thief has removed my device from my 'Find my iPhone' application?
I have a shiny new 9900 (have also a 9000 for nearly 2 years) and I am a little confused with the BlackBerry Maps application. I search for "map" and the BlackBerry Maps application is found and usable, but the direct access icon is not available in the home screens - how can this be rectified?

After reading allot of reviews about the SE Aino, I decided to get Phone, got home downloaded SEUS hooked up the Phone, tells me that I have the Latest Firmware (R1BA04909021), I Really love the Phone. How to Get the Facebook application, I tried Searching But with no Luck.
Weird problem here, my Notes application cannot find the notes I've written, it's like they were auto-deleted. The first time it happened I thought maybe I exited without pressing done, thinking maybe that saves it. But it's happened to me several times. I write a note, press done, exit out of the program. Open up the program and the note is still there, but after a day or 2 it's just completely gone. I'm not even syncing it or anything. This is on a ip4 with 4.02 and no JB.
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.

I've just switched from iPhone and I must say the android world is a little less intuitive. I cannot find a way to select the image and copy to the clipboard to paste in the email application. Am I missing an option to enable it somehow.
My son recently added a password to his iPhone. He forgot it, I have tried hooking it up to the computer we have last synched it with, and tried to restore it. Unfortunately, find my iPhone is enabled, so I get a message that says "Find My iPhone must be turned off before "iPhone" can be restored," when I try to restore it.
I washed my iPhone 4s last week. I just got my replacement phone. I want to restore from iCloud (for my calendar) and iTunes (for everthing else like contacts, etc.) but when I try to do that it says I have to turn off "find my phone" from my old iPhone. My old phone's display is dead so I can't do anything on it. It still rings when I get a call but I can't answer it.
