My iphone 3gs on off button does not work.  Is there another way to reset the phone?

The on/off button on my iphone 3gs does not work.  I cannot shut the phone down to reboot and it is stuck in a no service.  I cannot get cell or internet service.  Is there another way to reboot the phone?  Possibly a soft reset?

The screen goes to voice control.  It only recognises the home button not the on/off button.  Is there a way to soft reset the phone?

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • I have recently upgraded from my iphone 5 to a new phone. My iphone 5 's touch screen does not work anymore. I need to backup my phone, but I can't do it on itunes without my password. Everything besides screen is ok. Is there a way around it? :(

    I have recently upgraded from my iphone 5 to a new phone. My iphone 5 's touch screen does not work anymore. I need to backup my phone, but I can't do it on itunes without my password. Everything besides the screen is completely fine-the screen will not recognize my finger anymore. I am not trying to fix the phone, but I need to have my contacts. The pictures have already synced, but I need my password to do a full backup. Unfortunately, I can't type in my password. Is there any way around it? If I take my phone to the apple store, will they be able to help me? I am not willing to replace the screen just to do this, however, so that is out of the question. 

    Someone else may have a workaround, but, as far as I know, if you cannot interact with the screen on the iPhone, there is no way to unlock it so you can get to your contacts.
    Were you saving them to iCloud by chance? If so, you can restore them to your new phone.

    The best way is to let the battery die. Or you can reset the phone settings which restarts everything.

  • TS3274 My sound On/Off button does not work. I have to turn volume all the way down to silence it. Is the switch faulty, or am I missing sometging

    The volume On/Off switch does not work.  It does not mute sound. I have to turn volume all the way down to silence the sound.
    Is the switch faulty or am I missing something here?

    well first remove the case.  check the headphone jack for debris.  do a hard reset by holding sleep/wake and home button down together for 10 seconds untill apple appears.  backup and restore via itunes.  if issue persists the device needs repair

  • HT201401 My iphone 5 volumn down button does not work most of the time. it feels fine.  in an otterbox defender. this is my second iphone that it is doing the same thing.

    i have a iphone 5. the volume button going down only does not work.  this is my second phone with the same problem.  i have had otterboxes for both phones.

    Does not work even with the case off. I formatted and rebooted, reset, called apple and sent the last one back. It was free but this is getting old. I have had all iPhones and this is the only one I have had issues.

  • The apps on my iphone 4 are not responsive. The power/lock button is broken. Is there any way to reboot the phone?

    All apps are not responsive including 'Settings'. They quit as soon as you open it.
    The power/lock button is not working.
    I tried iTunes... there's no 'reboot' option (how sad...) and it for some reason not willing to restore my system.
    Anyone has any solution to this?

    Hello there, SmartLeeShore.
    As far as troubleshooting the main issue you're describing of apps quitting, you may find the following iPhone Troubleshooting Assistant helpful:
    Apple - Support - iPhone - Application Troubleshooting Assistant
    http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/application/
    Would definitely recommend that in Step 3 (Close App) that you close all applicaitons listed in that view.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

  • My iPhone 3GS bluetooth audio transmission does not work

    My iPhone 3GS used to work well with a Motorola H700 headset and the bluetooh in my Lexus.  All of a sudden, I could connect with the H700 or the Lexus and place a call but there was no audio received or sent even though the screen in the Lexus said it was being sent/received.  I have checked all settings; I have removed and re-setup the iPhone on both devices and to no avail.  Is there something I am missing?  I know the bluetooth system in the Lexus works because i can connect my Morotola SLVR to it and get audio both ways.
    Thanks.

    Thanks a bunch.  I had already disabled/enabled Bluetooth but did not know about resetting the network.  I did that and eveerything is working fine.  Wow!  Thanks.

  • Power on/off button does not work on Lumia 800

    use the camera button to give it life and have to wait till the auto screen will take effect to shut it down
    somebody else had or is having the same problem?
    had the update removed and installed again, did not help.
    Is it broken?

    I'm having exactly the same problem, no power button, have to use the camera to wake my phone. 
    My phone is still under garentee, so its no big deal, except that theres text messages on my phone that I need as evidence in a court case next month, and I cant take a chance on losing them so I've got to put up with a semi working phone for another month.
    I think the whole phone is a poor show. Had it to replace my old and dying N95, and the lumia isnt a pacth on that. I cant back my phone up to my computer, blue tooth is poor, cant save or pring text messages, the list goes on. . .

    You didn't say what operating system you have. If OS X 10.6 or earlier, see this (you'll need your original OS X DVD that came with the system or a retail OS X DVD). If 10.7 or later, see this.
