2.2 and factory reset - fixed issues, and battery is much better

I am not sure this will help all users with little quirks going on or not, but I had lagging issues, and quirks myself.  Decided to do the factory reset, and re-set up my phone and what a difference.  My web is faster, battery seems to get much more life out of it, no lagging issues between button presses, etc.  I say if you are having any type of small thing, take the time and do it.  I will bet you are happy you did.

I can't really quantify it but noticeably better.  Just a guess feels like 20%

  • Recovering data after factory reset (security issue)

    Hello there,
    Recently a friend of mine asked me how to erase all data on an iPhone ? I pointed to him to "factory reset".
    Now, I see a bunch of websites that show how to recover data after factory reset using their software, not sure if they work as advertised or not.
    What I would like to know is if the user wants the data to be erased and non-recoverable, is this the best option or if there is any other option available in iPhone that can make the data un-recoverable. We want to make sure the data is un-recoverable after factory reset.
    thanks

    unfortunately this doesn't answer my question.
    I do know the option to "erase all content and settings" in iPhone.
    What I want to know is to make sure once done, no one can recover that data back. Since this phone will be sold off to some stranger, we don't want them to have access to the data.
    Here are a few websites from my just preliminary search results that show how to recover data.
    just google "extracting data after factory reset iPhone" and you will see a bunch of websites offering their products to recover. So I want to check if this is so simple, how can we really make sure the data is wiped off clean.

  • Since i have downloaded the new IOS 8 my ipod touch 5G has been much slower, is there any way to downgrade and get the MUCH better IOS 7 back?

    I have recently downloaded the new IOS 8 and it has made my Ipod much slower.
    is there any way to get IOS 7 back or a way to speed up IOS 8?

    Downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple:
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       

  • Took full backup before factory reset, but restore hasn't given much back

    Hi,
    Due to having trouble (suspected software) with my home button, I got a full reset at the genius bar.
    Because I knew that was likely, I took a full backup on my PC via iTunes.  iTunes said that doing so would take a complete copy of my iPad.
    On bringing my iPad back from the shop, I restored from the backup, but I now only have a handful of apps and little if any of the content.
    I had essential stuff also backed up via iCloud, so this isn't a disaster, but I'm rather surprised that a "complete" backup would actually only entail about 5% of what was on there, and I'm wondering whether I've missed something as I suspect the weak link here may be me.
    Any bright ideas?
    Many thanks.
    Tom.

  • Two weeks and battery keeps getting better

    I have to admit I was frightened by how hard it was to keep a charge on the phone the first few days.  I didn't believe everyone that said it got better.  But now I have no worries about getting through my day with heavy usage.

    I bet you lie 
    Do you have some advices how to charge the lumia?
    I had 3 phone calls today over 2G network. Phone was around 90%. After 3 hours of calling the phone was at 21%. Display was on, phoned over speakers, connection was turned down to 2G only and WiFi was on but not transceiving anything.
    I find this a bit weak, Nokias specs said calls can last up to 8 hours over 2G . I guess fully charged I can come up to 4-4.5 hours. I have my 920 10 day til today and charged it 7 times when it gets around 20-30% to train the battery. Don't know if this really works. Does it?

  • Freezes during "starting windows" message even after factory reset.

    I've gone through diagnostic tests and they've shown it wasn't a hardware error. After a failed update to windows 10 my computer rolled back to windows 7. After the rollback when attempting to boot win 7 It froze and hung on the starting windows screen.  At first i was able to boot in safe mode and navigate the desktop and drivers, but after plenty of failed fixes i had to result to a factory reset with alienrespawn. After the factory reset the issue still persists, and i can no longer boot up in safe mode. When i do, it tries to do first time installation and says that i has to reboot in normal mode to complete first time config. My computer didn't come with a disk so i can't re-install windows 7, and factory reset dosen't seem to fix the issue. All I need is to resolve this issue so i can get back with a clean slate to upgrade to windows 10. Any ideas?

  • My LG Optimus Zone is having software issues and I can't access the Recovery Menu for a Factory Reset

    My LG Optimus Zone is having software issues and I can't access the Recovery Menu for a Factory Reset. It was working fine until I went to activate it and update the PRL. It turns on, but Freezes on the LG Logo. it currently goes into the LG Download Mode, and When I restore with LG's Mobile Support Tool, It finishes, reboots, and stays at the boot Logo. I was wondering if I can possibly get a replacement phone? This is a little upsetting, as i was hoping to have it transfered from prepaid to postpaid service next month

  • IPad 2 factory reset and backup recover issue.p

    I had to perform a factory reset and recover on my iPad 2. iTunes only found a backup file from April of 2014. However I backup my iPad every month. I really need to recover my notes, contacts and pictures Without losing my current updates. I found a more recent backup on an external drive but iTunes overwrote it when I followed the self help instructions.  Also there are 4 Apple products being backed up on my PC and I do not know how to tell them apart. Has anyone ever had this issue and know of a valid resolutions?   Any assistance would be greatly appreciate.
    Thank you!

    Hi Since ios 7 when you charge your iPhone or iPad it Automatically backs up To icloud you can do almost everything over your WiFi. So you should have a recent backup. Cheers Brian

  • HT201406 My phone keeps trying to facetime randomly during phone calls, it will also mute itself and put itself on speaker phone.  Anyone else have this problem?  I did the factory reset and I am still having issues.

    My iphone 4 will randomly try to facetime, mute itself, or put itself on speaker phone during a phone call.  I did the factory reset, but I am still having this problem.  Does anyone know what may be wrong, or has anyone else had this problem before?

    I have the iPhone 4s on Verizon and never had this problem until I recently updated to iOS 7.0.2. I have the same case on it for several months. Yesterday, when I was talking on the phone with someone, it appeared as though I lost the call. But when I looked down at my phone, it was trying to Facetime with someone in my contact list. It happened again today. Different person, but both people have names that start with "A", so they are at the top of my contact list. Very frustrating! So, obviously updating to the latest iOS either did not help or was the cause of the problem.

  • I recently purchased an iMac from a friend who factory reset it, and now I can't reinstall Mountain Lion?

         As the title says, I can't reinstall Mountain Lion. When I turn on the iMac, it send me straight to OX X Utilities. When I click on Reinstall Mountain Lion, it asks for my ID, but then states I did not purchase Mountain Lion. How do I fix this issue? I've tried asking Apple Support, but to no avail. I don't think the guy I spoke with understood what was going on.
    I cannot get around OS X Utilities. There are only four options for me.
    Reinstall Mountain Lion
    Back Up (tried, nothing comes up)
    Get Help Online (which is what I'm doing here)
    Erase or Restore Utilities (I've checked this, it says my disks are not malfunctioning)
         My friend suggested signing into his ID to reinstall but when we did, it also said this ID has not purchased Mountain Lion. We logged into Apple Support went to registed devices and there was nothing there. I think he may have used another ID which is he searching for the info for. If we get the right ID, then maybe it will let us sign in on his name and reinstall Mountain Lion. But if he can't, or Apple won't take his ID, then I'm at a loss for options.
         So now I'm here, hoping someone else who bought a used iMac from a friend who factory reset it and needs info on how to reinstall Mountain Lion can help me. I don't know what else to do. If I can't get this thing sorted out, I'll have to drive to the apple store. The closest one is 60 miles away, so I'm not looking forward to that. Is that my only option now? What can I do?
    tl;dr I bought a used iMac from a friend who factory reset it, and now I don't know how to reinstall Mountain Lion. What are my options?

    If the system didn't ship with Mountain Lion originally and you didn't purchase Mountain Lion yourself, then you will need to purchase. A purchase by the system's original owner cannot be transferred to you.
    Unless you have another system on which you have purchased Mountain Lion, you will need to first install Mac OS X 10.6.8 on the iMac, for which you'll need either the original installation disks, if the iMac came with 10.6, or a retail copy of 10.6. Install 10.6 and upgrade to at least 10.6.6, and then you can buy Mountain Lion from the Mac App Store, presuming of course that the imac can support Mountain Lion. See:

  • I have ipad mini 2 updated to ios 7.1.2.  Now ipad keeps shutting down and rebooting to the apple logo. I factory reset and redownloaded software in recovery mode.  Still happening.  What else can I do?

    I have ipad mini 32gb.  I updated to IOS 7.1.2. Since then ipad keeps shutting down and rebooting to the apple logo.  It happens so many times I cannot use the ipad.   I have tried factory reset and reinstalled software in recovery mode. Ipad is only 1 1/2 years old and in great condition.  Is there anything else I can do besides soend $200 to fix it?

    Sounds like a hardware issue to me going by the CRC error you mentioned. I'd make a Genius Bar reservation (you'll need your Apple ID) if you have a nearby Apple Store and get it evaluated. The evaluation is free but repair/replacement could incur other charges.

  • Have had several apps recently that wont open.  tried reinstalling and even did a factory reset on my phone, htc m8.  suggestions?

    recently I have had Verizon mobile, facebook, weatherbug, kill shot, and minion rush all start to open and then close on their own.  I've uninstalled them all and that didn't work.  Took the sd card out since the Verizon reps thought that might be the problem.  I ended up doing a factory reset on the phone, htc m8, and that didn't fix any of the issues.  Any suggestions?

    Another user suggested:
    Uninstalling updates for "Android System WebView".
    Here are the step by step instructions:
    1) Get to the "App Manager" screen (one way: settings / App Manager)
    2) Swipe over to the "ALL" screen to see "All Apps Installed"
    3) Scroll down until you find "Android System WebView" (or use magnifying glass to
    search for "webview") and press it
    4) Press "Uninstall Updates" button and enjoy!
