Bricked iPhone 3G after 3.0 upgrade

Hi everyone,title says it all but here are the details:my iPhonewas not jailbreak-ed. performing upgrade form genuine 2.2.1after googling i tried to restore it via itunes doing the following:1) shut down the iPhone by pressing home + wake/sleep for ten seconds2) keep the home button pressed and attached the usb cable3) on the iPhone screen appears a message which tells me to connect the iPhone to the Mac (its already connected)4) iTunes starts and tells me that it detected an iPhone in recovery mode and i press OK5) it warns me that it would erase all my personal data and blah blah and I press OK6) the restore process goes flawlessly until..7) it finally says that in order to complete the process it would restart the iPhone and tells me to keep it attached to the USB8) after that the iPhone keeps restarting again and again (apple logo for a minute, black screen for a while and the restart again)just for the record: i tried restoring to the 3.0, 2.2.1 and 2.2 firmwares. same stuff. i tried different OS too (leopard and vista)while attached, it tries to reboot over and over again, but if i unplug the USB cable it tells me to attach it back to itunes and asks me if i want to do an emergency call.if I attach it back the iPhone just freezes until I disconnect the cable again.reading the log file during the restore process it says that the process was successful but after the restart it hangs and keeps on restaring again and again, itunes cannot detect the device and it seems that is unable to activate the phone or something. while in this condition, if i disconnect the USB cable, the phone stops rebooting itself and shows a screen where it asks me to connect the phone to itunes in order ti activate it and gives me the option of doing an emergency call.theres gotta be something I still could do and i dont believe theres no way to entirely erase the phone and reinstall everything from scratch.please help me outthanks iPhone 3G iPhone OS 3.0

Back up iPhone 3G

Greetings, I recently had an issue where my phone needed to be reset from new. So, iTunes is supposed to be able to restore my phone to what I had before it wiped out. Why are my notes and contacts not restored? Or, if they can be restored, why did it miss them or where can I find that file to restore it manually?

FINDER ON IPHONEFILE STRUCTURE

The Spotlight feature on the iphone is very handy, I use it a lot when recalling a name for phone use. My frustration is why isnt there file structure on the iphone without the use of third party apps or a mobile me account. Does it require that much memory to implement this? Windows mobile has this on their smartphones. I think this would prove to be most effective on future OSs on the iphone. Mac Pro Mac OS X (10.5.2) Dual Intel Xeon Quad 3.0

Unable To Sync iPhone-Could Not Be Read From Or Written To 3G

Can anybody help me please? We upgraded one of our iPhones to OS3 today on a relatives computer because of a network connection problem on ours, but just when we thought everything was fine we have an error message when we try to sync music to the phone (back on our own computer) - the sync completes and then we get the error that the phone couldnt be read from or written to.All Im trying to sync is music - generally we have a playlist for each phone, but to try and narrow this down Im synching a number of smaller playlists (50 files in each) to see if that helps. I am able to get a few files onto the phone without the error, but if I keep selecting more playlists and synching again it fails. Using different combinations of playlists Ive managed to get 850 music files on with a capacity of 2.33GB without an error, but adding another 50 song playlist (trying different lists) creates an error. If I unplug, replug and remove the last 50 track playlist it syncs OK again. There are also 23.3MB photos, 217.1MB apps and 299.3MB other on there, but these are not changing with the syncs. Its a 16GB phone leaving 11.89GB free.It isnt stopping the sync on any particular file - it gets to the end (progress bar at top of itunes window) and after the last file has copied changes back to the sync in progress bar then gives the error message. Ive tried it with the last file being different (in case it was a bad file) but still get the error.Once it has errored I have to disconnect the phone and replug it to try and sync again. When I do that the ipod section on the phone itself says updating library then no content, yet in itunes the capacity indicator at the bottom shows the space allocated to audio. Ive tried different USB cables and different USB ports (always on the machine not a hub) but it doesnt change anything. Our other phone was upgraded to OS3 last week at the Apple store and seems to sync OK so far.I suppose it suggests that the phone will accept a certain capacity of files but then no more - does this sound feasible? If anyone is able to offer any suggestions at all Id be very grateful.Stuart. Dell Dimension 5150 Windows XP

Audiobook doesnt remember playback position in 3.0 iPhone 3G

So I started to write this topic and my auto-complete finished it for me, but placed 2.0 at the end... so I guess this isnt all that new an issue...Is anyone else having trouble? I havent quite pinpointed when it forgets the playback position, everytime when it charges in the computer, even without syncing, itll forget where I was in a book, and sometimes when I charge it otherwise and sometimes when half a day has passed and Ive used other apps... I dont know exactly what the cause is, I know its not any of the file settings (Im an old pro at listening to audiobooks , thanks anyways) I guess Im just curious if anyone else out there is having problems and wanting to get the word out to Apple.

Only primary account holders can purchase from Apple iPhone

Before some of the regulars here suggest I send this info to Apple, I have already spent an hour on the phone with them just a couple of days ago letting them know... Just wondering if anyone else has run into the problem, and if a solution has been found.I still have my store credit from my 1st gen iPhone. Currently I am on my 3rd iPhone 3G due to hardware failures, and yes I am eligible to upgrade.I can walk into ANY AT&T store, or even Best Buy or Wal-Mart, and purchase the 3G S model. I am not the primary account holder, however I am authorized to make changes, I am listed on the account, and my social security number is on file as an administrator of the account with AT&T. Even the billing comes to me.Apple ONLY has visibility of the primary account holders name and social security number, and as a result I wasted a trip to Atlanta last weekend to find out once I got in the store they couldnt sell it to me, and were not cleared to verify anything with AT&T over the phone.If anyone else has run into this and found a solution that resulted in getting the 3G S from an Apple retail location, please let me know what you did. Yes I could just go to AT&T, but I would prefer to use the credit I have been sitting on for almost a year and a half. Its no good anywhere except Apple. custom build Win XP & Linux Other OS

iTunes Library empty after upgrade to 3.0 iPhone 3G

I upgraded to 3.0 yesterday. Went smoothly enough.All my datas (Mail, eBook, notes and whatever) were preserved in the process, so I did not realise until this morning that my Music Library is reported as empty.The files are present on the device (the device infos report 10gb of occupied place wich is more or less the size of my library) but I cannot read them with the phone.I cant sync for now, but Im worried that my old library will remain, wasting (a lot of) space. Is there a way to activate the library that lies on my iPhone? If all else fails can I actually delete the file so my fresh sync goes smoothly? iPhone OS 3.0

Need serious help from Windows person to install Sons iPhone with iTunes

I gave my Son my 2G iPhone which served me well for over two years. He has signed up with AT&T and has the phone working with his number. Now, my Son wants me to show him how to use the Phone and iTunes. My problem is my Son has a Dell desktop Windows computer and I know little or nothing about Windows. I need to go over tomorrow at noon and act like I can help. I need step-by-step help please with these questions:1.) How do I tell which system he has (about 1 year old) so I can download the correct version of iTunes for him? Where do I look on a Windows computer to find that information?2.) After downloading the right version of iTunes, how do I locate the file that iTunes downloads to his computer and then get that file to install?Whew, If I could just have instructions on how to accomplish just that much, just those two major questions, I think the iPhone will automatically hook up with iTunes when we plug it in and we will be 90% home free.The only other question I can think of is that the phone I gave him still has all of my address books and everything I had on it. How do I re-authorize this phone on his computer so it will be like a new phone for my Son, registered for him, with my stuff cleaned off and ready to go for the way he wants to make it be?Thank you so much, I do not want to fall down on the job tomorrow in front of my Son.Thank You,Ken Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.11) 2G RAM

Spotlight on iPhone 3GS find on page feature

Need help from the smart guys here. I am a sales guy, and have a large number of cisco memory skus routers switches etc that I have to keep track of when customers call my iPhone. I emailed to myself my pricing lists and my tech notes, routers take what memory maxes etc, then copied & pasted the email once they hit my iPhone into my notes icon on the iPhone.The idea was when a customer asks me for, example, MEM2600XM-64D, I could swipe left to spotlight on the iPhone type that into the field and it would pull my notes that included my pricing or tech notes etc. (which it works great) Here is my need/ wishlist (and maybe it can be done with 3.0) I have close to 2000 memory skus routers etc I sell on my site, I want to be able to have the spotlight search within the large notes file that include 2000 items and go right to, and highlight the MEM2600XM-64D??? In other words, I dont want to have to scroll through the entire notes document that includes that part #.Almost like the cntl f in Firefox that will search within the document, not just tell me that my notes file has that part # which then I need to scroll & find... Any thoughts?ThxGeoff Windows XP

iphone 3.0 Update Slow Backup Process-Why Design Backup like

Hi All,Im hoping one of Apples staff will respond to this post. Im sorry it is long and rambling, but the interesting stuff is at the bottom, so stay with me...please. And yes Im a bit frustrated because my lovely iPhone has now been tied up for 9+ hours... not a good user experience.This post is really about the backup process itunes initiates whenever I attempt to sync my iphone. Ive never yet seen itunes get to the end of the backup. After the first 6 hours I get board and stop the process. iTunes is installed on Vista 64. Well last night I downloaded Itunes 3.0 update and kicked off the upgrade process in iTunes. All was well (and at the time of writing I guess still is). The backup kicked off at 21:54 on 17 June. It is now 8:11 on 18 June and the backup is still going. The progress bar is still increasing (no x available to cancel) and Ive the folder location in open in Windows Explorer. Last time I looked the backup folder contained some 21,000+ files. 1st file plist.status was written at 21:54. iTunes backup is still posting files to this folder!!!Using some pretty basic Windows Tools to see what was going on I found out the following.Apple backup uses 3 processes, one a Windows Service called AppleMobileDeviceService.exe. Another process called AppleMobileDeviceHelper.exe and AppleMobileBackup.exe. They are all network enabled. AppleMobileDeviceService is the hub and listens on port 27015. It talks to the other two services on various & variable port range in the TCP/IP stack.Using Windows Performance Monitor I can see that the TCP conversation going on between AppleMobileDeviceService & AppleMobileBackup is running at between 9,000,000 Bytes a Minute (min) and 14,000,000 Bytes a Minute (max). That is 1.2 Megabits per Second (min) & 1.86 Megabits per Second (max). That too me is very slow when the USB 2.0 interface its connected to has a capacity of up to 480Mbits per second.It occurs to me that the methodolgy Apples Devs have chosen for the backup process appears to be incredibly flawed. I cant test whether the backup is also using compression, although I hope so because of the 21,000+ files (and climbing) in the backup folder to date they only add up to 200MBytes. My iPhone has 7 of its 8GBytes used, so I could be in for a very long haul before I get my updated iPhone 3.0 software.Apple, please this isnt a dig, I know Ive got Windows on the desk (its my day job)but I love my iPhone and AppleTV.Can you ask your Devs to explain why they chose to use such a slow methodology to underpin the iPhone backup service. Or, is it that the potential high speed backup that is possibel over TCP/IP is just very broken?Lastly, when is Apple going to fix this, because this backup thing is very broken and giving your customers an incredibly poor user experience.Anyway, hope this was a little bit informative for those suffering the same trying to get their iPhone upgraded to 3.0.ThanksPete. handcrafted+dell w7+vista+2008

iPhone 3G update to 3.0 with repeated 1013 errors-now bricked iPhone-

Attempting to update an iPhone 3G to 3.0 from 2.2.1 and its now a brick.Note that Ive tried this now from THREE different computers, two macs and one windows box with identical results. Ive uninstalled iTunes on the windows box before doing the update attempt. The error message is 1013 which also takes you to this highly uninformative page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275. Ok, the USB cables and ports on three computers see the same problem error. So its either the iPhone itself or iTunes 8.2 (23) or both. Digging a bit deeper I found that there is a log file kept on the mac. Change to this directory from your home directory ~/Library/Logs/iPhone Updater Logs/ where youll find one iPhoneUpdater N.log file for each attempt to update that youve done.When the error occurs Apple asks if I want to send the info to them! YES!!! Make sure you do so that they can sort this out.Ok, looking in this log file (I wont dump it all here) you can see a number of errors. The end of the log file shows: ...Powering radio on through AppleBaseband- Ping failed, trying again, 21 tries left- Ping failed, trying again, 20 tries left- Ping failed, trying again, 19 tries left- Ping failed, trying again, 18 tries left- Ping failed, trying again, 17 tries left Exception at :0:- BBUReturnTimedOut(10)/16: Pinging timed outunexpected bbupdater exit code 16==== end of device restore output ====2009-06-17 23:39:34.000 iTunes124:11483: <Restore Device 0x188a3ef0>: Restore failed (result = 1013)2009-06-17 23:39:44.000 iTunes124:20b: iTunes: Restore error 1013Clearly there are some problems. Earlier in the log file it had problems updating a number of files.Now Ive tried this Connect your iPhone to the computer. press and hold sleep and home, and as soon screen goes blank, count off 5 seconds, then let go of sleep and keep holding home. That didnt change anything. sigh.Its almost as if this particular version of the iPhone that I have is incompatible with the current iPhone 3.0 operating system components. Maybe there is a bad driver? Hmmm....Ok, here is another error in the log file.Loading FLS file /usr/local/standalone/firmware/ICE2_04.26.08.fls...OKSending Block of type CodeClass(0) from file /usr/local/standalone/firmware/ICE2_04.26.08.fls...Beginning Dynamic EEP erase at 0x20E40000 to 0x20EBFFFE...Progress: 0 percent, 0 of 524286 Progress: 100 percent, 524286 of 524286.

Something is amiss somewhere...Could it really be that it cant download the update file to the iPhone due to USB problems? Surely Apple has access to fault tolerant file transfer protocols they can use?Sigh... now Im without my primary phone... grrrr... arrrrg... should have waited....Apple maybe you could learn something about ACID TRANSACTIONS and include them into the update process to guarantee either 100% success or 100% abort rollback?I dont know if this is relevant but now in iTunes on the iPhone page it no longer shows any values at all for the name, capacity, software version or serial number fields which is kind of spooky. Does this mean that I need to take the phone in for service? Is it permanently toast? MacBookPro iPhone OS 3.0 Update to 3.0 Bricked Phone

If you cant get your Iphone to sync or show up in itunes look 3G

FOUND THE ANSWER!! Apparently when you plug your iPhone in to your computer, Windows will sometimes install the drivers as a camera, putting them in the wrong place. This is why it will pop up in Windows so you can take photos off, but iTunes cant see it. SO, what you have to do is move the driver file (USBAAPL.SYS) to the correct location. Follow the directions I found below & your iTunes should be fixed (worked for me):What works is to just force the drivers on what windows thinks is a camera, i.e. to ‘update’ the device to use the correct driver. There are some hints on how to do this already listed on this forum, but I’ll try to give some more detailed information:1. First off you need to have iTunes installed and the ipod touch plugged in and recognized as ‘something’ e.g. digital camera (it shouldn’t really matter what it’s recognized as, but it needs to be found by windows).2. Search for usbaapl in the C:WINDOWS system folder:o open windows explorer (e.g. Right-click Start and then click ‘explore’) o right-click the WINDOWS folder and select ‘Search’). o type in usbaapl and hit Search – try to ignore the dog!You should find the driver info in a sub folder of C:WINDOWSsystem32DRVSTORE e.g. C:WINDOWSsystem32DRVSTOREusbaapl_A65621D65F5B7 507DD7B22331826547BDD2D206B Remember that location (either leave the search box open or copy the folder name into note pad – you’ll need it later)If you don’t find usbaapl.sys, usbaapl.inf etc. then your drivers have not been installed with the iTunes install and you’ll have to reinstall iTunes.3. Locate the ipod-camera device: o Open the device manager, e.g. using Start > Control Panel > Performance and Maintenance > System > Hardware Tab > Device Managero Look for a device called ‘ipod’ - if your ipod shows up as ‘digital camera’ it will be under something like ‘imaging devices’.4. Update the driver: o Right click the ‘ipod-camera’ in device manager and click on ‘Update Driver’ – the Hardware Update Wizard will open.o Check the ‘Install from a list or specific location’ then click ‘Next’o Check ‘Search for the best driver in these locations’. Un-check ‘Search removable media’ and check ‘Include this location in the search’.In the text box below type (or better copy and paste) the folder containing the ipod driver information found in step 1 (in the exampleabove it was C:WINDOWSsystem32DRVSTOREusbaapl_A65621D65F5B7 507DD7B22331826547BDD2D206B), then click Next. You should now see something like ‘Apple ipod device driver’ or so. Continue installing that device. Once the driver has been installed the ipod will cometo life and iTunes (if you have it open) will show it.__________________________________________________ ____________If for some reason this doesnt work, try downloading the file here:http://www.runscanner.net/files/sys...sbaapl.sys.aspxAnd putting it here: C: WINDOWS system32 drivers usbaapl.sys Windows XP Pro

Convert .api video file to .mp3.mp4 file iPhone 3G

Does anyone know of an utility on the web (free or less thatn $30) that I can use to convert a .api video file to a music file (mp3 or mp4 that will play on the iPod feature of the iPhone)? I found a few that do it but they make you pay for the full-blown version to do the whole file or to get the song without any watermarks, ie voiceover of the company name in the song every few seconds.Thanks.Lisa Windows XP

accessing Notes on my Mac from iPhone

My iPhone was stolen last night, and I need to get to the Notes that were on the phone.Apple customer support just told me theres no way to access the Notes on my iMac, even though theyre on the computer in a backup file. They say no way to get to them except buying new iPhone and syncing it up.Now - this cant be right. In the 1990s I had PalmPilots that syncd everything to my desktop and all was accessible on desktop.Is it true that a company as technically brilliant as Apple in 2009 has made it so that Notes sync up with iMac but cannot be accessed?Any ideas anyone? I really need to access those Notes.Much as I loved my iPhone, its way to expensive at this point in the recession to replace it at the prices AT&T gives to existing customers, so I think Im going to downgrade to cheaper. iMac Mac OS X (10.4.10)
