IPhone :: New 4gs Not Charging But Been Lying In A Box For A Year
Mar 30, 2012
I have had a new boxed iphone4 for over a year and I now want to use it for one of my family. However when it is plugged into a charger nothing appears to happen. I appreciate it might need a small amount of charge before kicking into life but it has been connected to the charger for 1.5 hours now?
Could the battery be so depleted that it is useless now, despite it being a brand new unit?
Cheers from "sunny" Scotland

When trying to use the motion launch gestures while the phone (M8) is lying on a flat surface? I found that the double tap or swiping the phone while it's on a table does not always activate the phone. However, when the phone is in my hand, it works as it should. I'm thinking maybe it's because the phone has a rounded back so when you tap it, the phone will seesaw and it messes with the internal sensor. I never have this problem when the phone is in my hand because the way the phone contours to the hand and making it more stable.

Lightflow making the phone screen turn on randomly when sitting on a table? The colors for the notifications are correct, but becausue of the screen coming on alot randomly this is going to kill the battery life. I even enabled a setting to reduce this in light flow but nothing works. How to have lightflow working correctly?

I changed my contract from an iPhone 3GS to an iPhone 4 in may 2011. Since then my USB does not work properly and the earphones, well one ear works and the other doesn't. I then went online to check if I could get a replacement for both which I am still not sure that accessories are covered under tha warranty. Then I put my serial number and it said that my phone was out of coverage which doesn't make sense as I got the phone in may 2011 and it's only April 2012.Not a year yet.

My wife and I are moving to Dublin in a little less than a month so that my wife can earn a Masters from Trinity College. We will live there for 12 to 13 months.We've been AT&T users for five years and upgraded to iPhones last summer. As you might expect, we've become pretty attached to our phones and would like to use the Wi-Fi feature overseas (as well as Skype for international calls, of course). However, we do not want to stay with AT&T the next 12 months (prolonged international AT&T usage = bad idea), and therefore plan on getting some cheap phones in Dublin from a local provider so that my wife and I can communicate when we're apart.
This is where you come in. What can we do to cut ties with AT&T but continue Wi-Fi usage of our iPhones? I did some research this morning and read several accounts of individuals canceling AT&T service, removing the SIM card and using their iPhone like an iTouch without issue. However, other accounts mentioned that AT&T can disconnect Wi-Fi when customers cancel service--not sure how that's possible, but there you have it.On another note, do you know of a way to suspend AT&T service for one year so that we don't need to pay monthly bills but also don't need to pay the account cancellation fee? Probably a long shot, but it would be the most convenient option.I thought I would ask around here before making the call to AT&T and showing some CSR all of my cards. Any help on the matter would be greatly appreciated.

Can anyone tell me what is covered under the Apple 1 year warranty/ repairs and service coverage? I have coverage until Nov this year. (I do not have my purchase docs with me to look at.) I have cracked my screen completely and wandered how much it would cost for Apple to fix it. I do have insurance with my Orange contract the excess is £50 but as I only recently purchased the insurance it will take a week to process, alternatively a local company replaces the glass and screen for £45.

In my iPhone 4S Verizon version, I have chosen Date& Time to be set automatically. Today I noticed that the year in the calendar was 2555. I tried to reset it to 2012 but settings now keep going back to December 31, 2555. Has anyone else seen this? The phone OS has been maintained current to iOS5.

my daughter and I have just got our new iPhones but I can´t create and Apple ID för her so she can´t use the ICloud service. So I tried using the one I created for myself resulting in that all my contacts apeared in her phone. What should we do?
Apple how about letting parents confirm the Apple ID for their kid but it should be created with the kids name and birthday how difficult can it be? am I the first mum who bought and Iphone for my kid?
And by the way how do we get access to all the old contacts stored on the SIM card from our preIPhone time? I thought that everything just work with Apple but I am beginning to think that I should have choosen and Android... I mean changing brand of phone doesn´t exactly mean that you want to cut contact with all your old friends..

I've had four Blackberry including my current 9780 which I'm pre happy about. Only complaint is even with minimal apps I still get the clock quite a few times during the day and its just slow even after wiping and restoring data. Don't get me wrong I love my blackberry keyboard, and the messages folder has nothing like it.
I want others opinion though. What would make you want to sign a 3 year contract with a Blackberry of today. Either current, or upcoming.

I finally decided to use my Bold 9000 back again (fyi the battery was in the phone the entire time for the duration that I didn't use it) but now, ever since I've been charging it, the red thing lights up but soon disappears when I connect it to my wall charger. I've made sure I removed the SIM and Memory Card but still nothing appears and it's been hours now but the Bold just won't switch on.

My friend just told me about this deal he saw at Tbooth promenade mall, free htc diamonds on any rogers one year contract. I didn't believe it until I called to confirm. Apparently it's only available through their location. Their number is 9057319157. Maybe they also will sell them on prepaid?

Today i observed that my phone is showing wrong year when the phone is locked(i.e 2014 instead of 2015). It is showing right year in notification and other places. Do I need to change settings or is it a bug.

I have an Iphone 4s that was purchased a few months ago. The charging cable all of a sudden would not charge my phone and I noticed there is a burn mark on the inside of the plug that goes into my phone. Is this cable covered under applecare plus warranty and should I be worried there is a problem with my phone?

I bought my Droid X in 2010 shortly after they were released. At that time I bought an extended battery direct from Verizon which has been in the phone constantly since then. It lasts several days which is great,Recently though I have plugged it in to the standard charger only to have the phone shut off (GOOGLE!). Then, after turning it on, it reports that the battery is not an approved Motorola battery and can not be charged.I'll reboot it several times only to have it continue to fail to work.
I tried substituting the standard battery for a few minutes which works fine, shutting down, reinstalling the extended battery which THEN works and charges normally without the phone failing to recognize it and shutting off or not charging.
What's going on here? Is the battery defective or is the phone defective? Difficult to tell. Getting close to an upgrade period for me so maybe it doesn't matter but it's definitely annoying.

I have both the DT-900 wireless charging plate and the DT-901 wireless charging stand. They both have a charge light that stays on when charging and goes off when charging is complete. I've notice that with the Icon the light never goes out when the phone is fully charged. When I charge my 822 the light goes out when it's fully charged.

I plugged my bb into the wall and for a little bit it was charging fine but then the symbol disappeared. I unplugged and plugged back in which made the clock pop up so I know it connected right. But its still not charging. I turned the charging indicator led on with berrybuzz and the light didn't turn on when I plugged it in.
Meterberry says the temp is 111 degrees. I don't know what the 'normal' ranges are. I'm still under my 30day warranty so do I take it back? Is anyone else having this problem? Its done this before and it eventually charges but something is going on....

Help! I bought a BlackBerry Charging Pod for my 9700, the packaging that came with it says it is for a Tour 9630.
I plugged it in and the power light on the pod lit up but there is no indication on the 9700 that says it is charging when placed in pod and I set the clock to display when charging and that doesn't work when placed in the pod!I bought it from a place called OEM in Brooklyn.
