how do i turn off the ability for other iphone users to see my name

I am on edge of 3G network at my home. Both are iPhone 4 are able to turn OFF 3G. If we leave 3G on it overirds our cell tower and our phones only get 1 bar or none so cannot use phone. If we turn 3G off, we receive full bars and great reception on our phones. I upgraded to the 4s and it doesn't allow me to turn off 3G - therefore I cannot use the cell phone - it completely shuts down the cell signal. What can be done? Apple does not give me any solutions. Am I stuck with the old iPhone forever?

So I have recently downloaded the 'Find My Iphone' app from apple. Its an app which facilitates you to find your iphone if locally lost or track it so ou know where it is. One of the issues with these type of security features is they become irrelevant as if stolen the thief can simply decide to turn off the phone. At the moment you are able to turn off an iphone from the lock screen menu, i am wondering is there a way to disable this so that the iphone can only be turned off once i have got past the lock? i.e so the phone can only be switched off by the phone users authorisation?

Just curious. Are most of you iPhone users also Mac users?
I'm a (new) iPhone user... but don't see myself switching from a PC anytime in the near future.
Most people are just jumping into jailbreaking without looking through the other threads...IF YOU JAILBREAK YOUR IPHONE 4, YOU WILL LOSE THE ABILITY TO USE FACETIME AND MMS UNTIL THERE IS A FIX.EDIT: Okay, not for EVERYBODY, but many people are reporting it, including myself. Don't believe me? Search "MMS" or "FaceTime" in Twitter.

I can't receive or send a message unless the other phone is an iphone so it is a imessage.How do I get my regular messaging back? On my settings it says that MS messing is on, and the messages appear to send? But they have no been going through, and I have not gotten any of the messages sent to me from non iphones.

Each time I update the software on my iphone it stops sending text / imessages. Is there a way to ensure that this most basic of functions works whether the software updates or is the answer trawling through a bunch of 'troubleshooting' pages? the primary purposes of my phone are voice calls and text messages, it baffles me how this piece of equipment will regularly stop doing these things, seemingly at random. Any way not including reference to the troubleshooting pages, even if it's 'stop updating'.

It's a very convenient feature for my job. Are there plans to add this feature? Are there any apps that will do this. It's frustrating to have this great phone and not be able to do something so simple and convenient.

My laptop died and had to be reworked. I've lost ability for my iphone to "automatically" send pics to my laptop. What to do?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI know on the 3GS launch there were many first time 3G users that wanted to upgrade. Which I "thought" was pretty common practice after a year. Then they said ok. we'll give you a month or two for your eligibility date. Since I wasn't eligible till Dec.
figure i'll pre order and everything will be just fine. Got the reservation email for in store pickup, at about 6am. checked all day. was still good. Now this morning its no where to be found and not on the list at the apple store. F'n awesome. What could have caused all this snafu from yesterday and the overwhelming demand? Now those that had the 3G and couldn't upgrade last year essentially can't upgrade at launch thanks to all 3GS users and new users slamming the system. I understand their position though. They know they will lose the iphone in probably the next year. So try to get as many customers signed up and raise the ETF. Unless the verizon phone is LTE. the service isn't terrible here. Some of the policy's though, well i'm sure you all know the words by now.
Seems like those who got in on the 3G in the first month or so are in a black hole. I know at least I am. But really, my 3G works just fine. Its got the 5.08 boot loader on it so I can do whatever really and not have to worry about upgrading to whatever firmware comes out. I'm enjoying 4.0 with the wall papers and multi tasking. Even though I could those things over a year ago. I'm diving in for the screen and camera. And CPU and RAM of course.
Just felt like divulging my observations from yesterdays horrendous pre-order festivities.
My local store manager said he might be able to get me one, depending on how many they get, since he doesn't really know outside of the reserved ones of course.
i've been using this app since it was released last year and i loved it. with the iOS4, it appears as though it is not supported.
has anyone heard anything about updates? or any workarounds to get it to work?
I own an HTC One M8. I receive SMS messages fine from iPhone users. However, MMS messages will not download. Invariably, every person I've found while scouring Google that has this problem has previously owned an iPhone. I have not.I repeat - ***I have never owned an iPhone and have never used iMessage.***

For those of you that pay a lot of attention to data usage--how much data does GPS eat up if you're using something like the MapQuest GPS app?
View 5 Replies View RelatedCrossed over from an iphone 4s to an Lg G4 7 days ago. Love the phone but trying to group text between me and my iphone buddies is proving very difficult. I cant see their original responses in the group, instead only see individual responses. Initiating a group text results in only my buddies seeing only my response and no one else.
I've deregistered my phone number from apples website a couple days ago and even days earlier turned off imessaging on my old device but still get the same results. I downloaded and installed textra made it my default messaging app, turned on the group mms option still same thing. I've even told my friends to delete my contact information on their phones and wait for a group text from me; same result. What more can i do? I dont think telling them to turn off imessaging on their end is fair because all their text messages to other iphones will be sent not using imessage. What more can i do?
Could it be possible that the way my contacts are setup is screwing up my group messaging? Or is this strictly an ios glitch on apples side? How do you all go about setting up group texts and can you name a group text? My group name is always "3" standing for the 3 other recipients that i send the message to. Is there no way to rename this?
So I picked up my S5 Friday, upgraded from iPhone 4S. I traded in my iPhone for the phone, and reset my iPhone to factory settings before doing so. I love my new phone, but I can't get any texts from iPhone users. iPhone users get my texts, but I don't get any from them. I know this probably has to do with their phones still trying to send my number iMessages instead of texts. I don't have the box or anything from my iPhone to get the serial number from it.
View 24 Replies View RelatedI just switched to the LG G3 from the iPhone 5, so did my husband. We regularly group message 2 iPhone users, so when we tried to start a new conversation, my husband can see all the messages but I can not. Sometimes I'll get a new text from "Anonymous" saying "message not found" and it seems like it happens when my husband messages the group. Why is it functioning properly for his phone, but not mine? This morning I got the same message from Anonymous and my husband did not text the group, so now I'm obviously missing out on messages!! This is so frustrating! I have iMessages turned off on my old iPhone, the iPhone users have group text and SMS turned on on their phones, they've reentered our contacts, we're using the stock messaging app on the LG. I don't know what to do. And it's totally inconvenient to ask all my iPhone using friends to text through WhatsApp or any other app.

My step-mom and sister that have iPhones can't text me, but my father and other sister who do not have iPhones can send to me. We are all on Verizon. I have had a number of friends with iPhones (likely on Verizon) tell me the same thing - that I don't get their messages. I can text all of them and they can respond to my texts, however if they are originated by the iPhone user on Verizon I will not receive.

I have some confusion about iMessage. I could send and receive most of messages from other iphone users. But, I cannot receive messages from my parent in China, who also uses iphone.
