I am having a very unusual problem in my iphone. sometimes I cannot Slide to Unlock the phone when I get a call. This doesnt happen always.I have to wait and press it really hard to Slide it to unlock. That too is not guaranteed to work 100 %. Once it gets unlocked then everything starts to work as normal.Have tried hard-restarting , Did a clean restore with no apps. I have also noticed that it happens frequently when it is in my pocket.I have also tried removing the screen protectors but doesnt help much. I even went to Apple store and they told that it might be due to a loose connections between the connectors. They did removed and put back the connectors but still it doesnt seems to work.It really annoys if you miss the call and have to call back again.. especially if that is an International number.I cannot prove it to Apple that there is a problem with the phone , and cannot even get a replacementGuys , please HELP!! iphone 3GS iphone OS 3.1.2 Slide to Unlock doesnt work

I have to guess at the OS, as the phone no longer works after the latest OS update.Performed an online update on Friday night (2/6), process halted midway, froze. Indicated full restore necessary. Attempted to restore, repeatedly. No luck. When I plug in, displays indicates it wants to connect to iTunes, but nothing happens.Phone is toast. Any suggestions? 3g iphone iphone OS 3.1.2 Performed online update, msg 1603
I tried jailbreaking my new iphone 3GS 32g with firmware 3.1.2 (05.11.07) with blackra1n.During jailbreaking my iphone was stuck in recovery mode. I was trying many times to restart blackra1n. And also I did try to restore with iTunes to 3.1.2 ,it's giving me every time the same message "This device isn't eligible for the requested build". So i stuck I recovery mode. Can u help me please, what I shoul do?
Ok funny topic name, but this is wierd. Im not sure if this has anything to do with the 3.1.3 update, but it did happen to coincide.It seems my buttons now have a mind of their own. I will be typing a text or email and the slide to power off screen will appear. I can click cnacel and go back to what I was doing and it will go right back to that screen. I can leave the phone alone for a while and it will work fine for a few minutes. The speak seems to turn itself wide open. I can turn it back down and it will automatically go back to full power. But wait, thats not all.......It will also get stuck in these loops of rebooting with the apple logo on the screen appearing and then the screen will go blank. So all the buttons are no activating themselves? All of the issues seem to be with every external button and not the touch screen.I tried a restore, which completed successfully but that didnt help.

A couple of days ago upgraded my 3G16GB iphone from 3.1.2 to 3.1.3 soft. Ver.Since then can’t download photographs from iphone to my PCs using Windows Scanner & Camera and/or Windows Explorer utilities. In both cases the Win XP doesn’t recognise the device, but once it does get the following announcement “ The imaging device is busy, or may be in use by another application. You may cancel, or continue to wait for the device to become available.” After some ten minutes get the message “ The device could not be reached” or “The Properties for this item are not available”Have tried, at least ten times to perform the restore operation both as a new device as well as using my last backup – NADA ! No apparent hardware problems or conflicts reported by OS everything seems to be in perfect functioning order.Any thoughts, ideas or advises? Sony VAIO Windows XP Pro
I ran a sync, then a restore on my iphone, then re-synced, and none of my apps synced (they all disappeared). Now when I try to sync my Owned and Rented movies I get an error saying it cannot copy the movies because it has already been transferred to another computer or deviceWell, thats wrong, it was synced to my iphone before I ran the restore, and now I tunes doesnt recognize that my phone is the one that everything was transferred to before.How do I fix this? PC - Windows XP Plenty good enough for I Tunes
I have had nothing but trouble with the new update to 3.1.3 and want it OFF my phone. I want to delete it and just go back to business as usual. Does any one know how to do it? I was told that if I just do a restore, it will reinstall the latest version of OS any way. I hate the new mess I have with latest update. HELP!!! iphone 3g iphone OS 3.1.3
Ive searched for this and while Ive found threads suggesting a restore, there doesnt seem to be a definitive fix.I dont know if this relates to an upgrade to 3.0.1 on my original 2g iphone, but texts have disappeared. The conversations list is blank. When a text arrives the warning message/sender comes up on screen but when I attempt to view it theres nothing. Any text I send is only on the message list till the phone next goes into sleep mode.Ive definitely had messages ok since the upgrade to 3.0.1 and been able to keep them in a thread. I dont have Fring installed which I understand caused some problems. Are there any other apps known to cause sms problems?It is going to sound like a feeble excuse when I try to tell people I never got their text so looking for solutions please! Im not running latest firmware but Ive seen threads where people with 3.1 have same problem so dont want to risk upgrade (and possible battery life problems) before doing some more research.ThanksMessage was edited by: Adrian Langford PB G4 15inch 1.67Ghz Mac OS X (10.4.11)
After updating the iTunes version and applying the latest iphone update (yes two variables), when syncing my 3g 16g iphone I would receive an error message indicating that This computer is no longer authorized to play purchased items ..... And for some reason it would tell me that 337 purchased songs could not be copied even though Ive purchased far more than that.I then selected the authorize option (even though my mac is the only authorized computer), after entering my username and password iTunes would respond with This computer is already authorized. After selecting the Ok button the first error would return. Knowing the standard protocal is to restore the phone, I did so. Now I no longer get the authorization error message, now iTunes gives me a different error message after syncing, Some of the items in the iTunes library, including ...., were not copied to the iphone because you are not authorized ... And the count is now 100.Screen shot of error can be found at: http://www.me.com/gallery/#100170Any ideas? iMac 24 Mac OS X (10.5.6) iTunes 9.0.3, iphone 3g 3.1.3 MAC OS 10.6.2

Hiya!I recently got an iphone second hand. Because its second hand, it didnt come with the cable in the original box. It came with a Universal Dock. Its not an Apple Universal Dock, (at least I dont think so, since the images i Googled up of that werent the same as what mine looked like). When i plug this dock into the wall socket, a window comes up on my iphone display saying this accessory is not made to work with the iphone. Despite that, it still charges fine. So today, I decided to try syncing my secondhand iphone to my iTunes Library. The first few times, my iphone didnt even show up in my iTunes at all, so I unplugged it several times. Finally, when it showed up, I clicked update software under the Summary tab, and it started downloading. When it finished downloading, some window on my Macbook popped up and said that some error had occurred. Then I got the picture of an Apple USB cable and an arrow pointing upwards to the iTunes logo on my iphone LCD. And its been stuck on that ever since. Ive tried charging my iphone, Switching it off and on, and unplugging my dock from the laptop. The image doesnt go away. So i cant even access the home menu on the iphone. I tried clicking the restore button in my iTunes, but it just said an unknown error occurred (2005), and my iphone disappeared from the Devices list...Please help me! Mac OS X (10.5.8)

My iphone mail display is doing something strange & I havent seen this before. When I open my iphone Mail application, the Inbox displays as Inbox (19), suggesting that there are 19 messages somewhere in the Inbox. Yet I have deleted all of the messages visible in the Inbox. I used to allow it to display up to 200 messages but have changed that to 25 messages. When the message at the bottom of the Inbox shows up Load More Messages, I tap on it & nothing happens. Since it is sitting right next to my MacBook, I know for a fact that all of the mail on the MacBook has also been viewed and/or deleted on the iphone and yet it still thinks that there are 19 messages in the Inbox. Ive done a hard reset at least 3 or 4 times, including once while on the phone with AT&T. How do I get rid of the number in parentheses behind the word Inbox? Its driving me nuts! It seems to be the only thing that is doing strange things other than the screen freezing from time to time.Ive never done a restore & am unsure that I can be sure that my data is backed up in iTunes. Does this happen everytime I sync & will I be able to bring it back?Thank you! iphone 3g iphone OS 3.1.3

I upgraded my 3g to 3.1.3. iTunes (9.0.2.25 on Windows 7 PC) first backed up the iphone and then proceeded with the upgrade, which failed (never had this happen before) and forced me to do a restore from the latest backup. After the restore, I seem to have all my data in the native apps, but all user-downloaded apps are missing. I expected them to be present after the restore... No???? I didnt keep apps synced back to my iTunes previously. Are they all lost? MacBook Air / Windows 7 PC iphone OS 3.1.3
Hi all, i was wondering if you could help me with a problem...Basically when i plug in my iphone to my PC (via USB) i get the following messageUSB Device not RecognisedOne of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognise it. For assistance in solving this problem, click this messageAnd if you click the message it tells you to reconnect the device and then when i reconnect it it does exactly the same thing.I dont know if this is software or hardware related buy i have only seen this problem with Windows PCs whilst i have been looking around.If i connected it to a MAC, do you think it would be possible to open it in iTunes and then restore the software or is it a hardware fault? Or is there a way to update settings and software via the iphone itself?Thanks in advance for your help!Ed iphone iphone OS 3.1.2

I just did the latest update and now my podcasts are all messed up (sorry...this is the only thing I could think of to define the problem). The podcasts are hollow sounding and either undersped or oversped. The bottom line is they are unlistenable.They are fine in iTunes and on other iPods. I did a full restore using both the backup and treating the phone as a new phone and reloading things on that way.Any ideas...or has the phone just maybe thrown a rod? Its about 6 months old (and ironically a replacement for a phone that had its screen go south after about 6 months). 09 Octo Mac Pro; Quad G5; MacBook Pro; iMac Mac OS X (10.5.7)
My iphone has been on the fritz the past week or so and now it is saying unknown error 1013 whenever I try to restore it. Does anyone know what to do? Ive looked online and the only stuff I see about it involves jailbreaking and I dont want to do that. Any help would be appreciated.
This morning I installed the updated iphone OS 3.1.3 on my iphone 3g. A little while later, I realized I am no longer connected to the AT&T 3g network. Ive noticed some users have experienced issues with WiFi after this update, but have been unable to find anyone other than myself with this 3g network issue.I have power-cycled my iphone, but the issue persists. When I go into General > Networks Enable 3g is toggled On. Unfortunately Im at work and am unable to try a restore until tonight. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

I took my phone into apple today. The home button was sporadic in that it worked sometimes, and other times it wouldnt - Id have to put it down for a few minutes, then suddenly it would work fine, until maybe a few minutes later it wouldnt again. Well I have a resold one from At&t - a big mess where I was told I had a year warrenty and didnt. So they said they could open it and replug things in and dust it. He brings it back out and it works for a moment. Before I leave the store it stops working. I figured it was intermittent like before... but no. It NEVER works now! I could handle the frustration of having to wait to check email for a few minutes because I couldnt get out of messaging... but having to restart every time I need to switch is horrid. I cant believe they made it WORSE! Does anyone have any ideas? Currently doing a complete restore hoping maybe it would help iphone3g iphone OS 3.1.3

Hi I tried to update my iphone software to version 3 and as it was backing up it crashed. It now says I need to restore as my phone is in recovery mode. Will restoring delete all data?? The backup did not complete and is not on my PC.I desperately need messages and contacts on my phone which are not backed up on my PC for a legal case. Is there any way of getting it out of recovery mode and back to normal without losing these files??Many thanks - Tony Windows XP Pro
After upgrading two iphones to 3.1.2 (7D11) every time I re boot I get New Hardware Found and when I attemp to complete it there is an error. I pointed it to C:windowssystem32drvstore as suggested in another solved message but it still doesnt work. I also have been unable to find a restore point that works on my computer.This is one of the suggestions I recd from HP support:If the issue persists, then it is clear that the I phone software is incompatible with the Operating system installed on the Notebook. To resolve the issue, you need to install some softpaqs that support I phone software in Windows XP Operating system. I recommend you to contact I phone support team and get the softpaqs installed on the Notebook.Where do I get these or alternate solutionsId also like to select # times my phone rings. I cant take off my gloves, dig into my pocket, and retrieve my calls in 4 rings (if I heard them)Thanks for your help MB629C iphone OS 3.1.2
i have iphone 3gs and it get a message that unknown error occurred (9)when restore. No idea what that means. plz heeeeelp iphone OS 3.1.2
My iphone has worked fine the past year and a half, but recently hasnt been working. It was getting no service in areas where there is service a week or so ago. Two days ago it said iphone cannot make or receive calls restore needed. I did the restore and it has done the exact same thing at least 5 times. Sometimes it is going to the recovery mode screen when I turn it on. Ive done a DFU as well and the same things are happening. Any ideas on what to do?
I had my O2 phone unlocked to use on orange UK just before Christmas. Everything worked fine for weeks- the 3g was sometimes patchy when moving around the city as to be expected but when I stayed still it was pretty reliable. About 2 weeks ago I noticed my 3g started to drop down to nothing instantly after being at full bars the minute before, then it would be back to full a minute later and so on. Another thing that is strange is that sometimes I have a full 3g signal yet i still get the no data connection error in safari and pages will not load at all. This is happening every couple of days right now and its so frustrating - I went 2 hours with absolutely no data over 3g or GSM the other day!Yet another strange thing is the 3g switch itself. Sometimes I will turn 3g off and yet the signal wont drop out and come back up as GSM or EDGE as it usually does, it remains on 3g! Its almost as if the phone thinks it is still getting a 3g signal when it isnt OR the mechanism for actually changing the signal type isnt responding to the phones interface ie the switch. Sometimes the 3g symbol changes instantly to the o GSM symbol without any change in the level which again, suggests a confusion between signal types as it is unlikely the 3g would physically drop to nothing whilst GSM just happens to be at exactly the same signal strength. I went to the apple store a week ago - they ran diagnostics and reported that my phone was able to pick up 92% of available signal. They suggested I get a new sim and do a deep restore on the phone and set up as new phone both of which I have done. I went back today and they said as I was out of warranty (even though this handset is only 3 months old as it replaced another fault!) I would have to pay £139 for a replacement. My concern is that this is not a handset fault but a firmware update fault- I have read many other similar stories that all happened after the last 3.1 update which included a carrier settings update so Im dubious about forking out £139 when I cant be sure what is at fault. Also I know nobody else with an iphone on Orange UK to compare with. Voice calls and SMS are not affected by these problems. I just wanted to see if anyone else is having the same problems and if so, if they have come to find a solution. Any light that can be shed will be very welcome!Thanks guysJoe 24" iMac 2.4 GHz, Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.5.1)

We are having a problem with my wifes 3g iphone. Every so often, it loses sound through the external speaker and doesnt make the normal sounds of putting it to sleep or waking it up or e-mail notices. Sometimes, I do a soft reset, and this works. Other times, when it comes back on after the soft reset, we get a message to the effect that the accessory is not compatible with the iphone. The problem is the iphone is not attached to any accessory. Sometimes we get the same message after I remove it from the charger, and there is also no sound. The other night, we had the same problem, and after many resets, I placed the phone on the charger, and after it was charged, there was sound.Ive yet to do a full restore, and would like to avoid that if possible.Any thoughts on the cause of losing the external sounds would be greatly appreciated.Thanks. iMac G4, iMac G5, iBook G4, 2 MacBook Pros, iphone 3g S , iphone 3g, ATV Mac OS X (10.6.2)
After a year of working perfectly, my iphone cannot find the AT&T network. It will indicate Searching then give up.

I have a 3Gs and here soon I really need to make sure that I have a good backup of my phone so if anything were to happen I could restore it completely after say an unrecoverable crash.What I need to learn how to do is to find the archive files that itunes makes of my contacts and calendar, so that I can save them to CD for permanent storage.I dont really know a whole lot about this particular kind of thing so Im in your hands. Can someone get me started here? Thank you 3GS iphone OS 3.1.2
My wifes iPhones volume rocker fell off. We went to an apple store and failed to secure an appointment. A rep told us to schedule an appointment with a genius, and that more likely, the phone will be replaced on the spot.If that were the case, how would I secure my wifes privacy? SMS, emails, etc. Ive noticed theres an option to wipe out the unit after 10 wrong passcode attempts, but is that enough? Should I restore if prior to the apple store visit?Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks. Macbook Pro Mac OS X (10.6.1)

I originally had to try this because the phone went to black screen and wouldnt turn on or anything. Thanks for any help. PC iphone OS 3.1.2
