2014 Lexus won't charge iPhone since software upgrade

I have a 2014 lexus rx350. At first it charged and played my music with display.....GREAT, then I upgraded iOS,now, no charging, no display. When plugged in via USB, it actually blinks and begins to discharge the phone. Please help. I called Apple, they blame it on Lexus. i called Lexus, they said the problem is Apple. Now neither port will charge The phone, lighter or USB.

Are you using an Apple cable? If not an Apple branded one, is it certified as Made for iPhone? Cable compatibility can become an issue with non-certified cables when you do an iOS update. If it is not charging even via the lighter, sounds like a cable issue.
If you are using an Apple or Apple-certified cable, have you tried a different one in case this one is damaged? How about the iPhone itself, have you tried a Reset? Restore?

Help needed: iPhone 4 software upgrade failed many times

Hello. I've bought an iPhone 4, which its operating system is 4.3, and was prompt by iTunes about this iPhone 4 software upgrade to iOS 4.3.5. I've downloaded the software and waiting for quite some time and after the dowloading has completed, the file will be processed. After processing, there is a popup saying that somehow the software upgrade failed and said something like make sure that your connection is correct etc. Do you have any idea on how to solve this issue?
Help me, please. Thank you very much.

"Going in circles" - are you talking about yourself or something about the phone? What happens in vagueness stays in vagueness.

Firewire cable won't charge iPhone 3GS.......Why

Can someone explain to me why my firewire cable won't charge my iPhone yet it will charge my ipod 3rd gen, 5th gen and touch 1st gen without any problem!
I have the firewire/usb double connector cable which goes into a dock station. The firewire goes to the mains plug and the usb lead is free to connect to my laptop for syncing etc. When I connect the iPhone i get the message about not compatible etc etc. Is this just a money making scam to make you buy a new usb lead?
The beauty of this lead was to allow me to dock the ipod/iphone to charge and sync separately if needed.
Anyone......

"On to the power adapters. Here’s the story: We learned a while back that iPhone 3G doesn’t support charging “via FireWire.” The thing is, there are lots of devices out there that don’t actually have a FireWire port, but are technically FireWire chargers because they’re sending power on the dock-connector pins that were used for power by the FireWire interface. There are a lot of reasons for this, chief among them the fact that the FireWire spec allows as much a 18 volts, while USB is a 5-volt connection. Since cars provide 12 volts of power, many if not most car-chargers used the FireWire method to send power.
However, in the interests of space and simplicity (i.e., not having to engineer for two separate power paths), Apple has dropped support for FireWire charging with the iPhone 3G. This means that many accessories won’t charge an iPhone 3G. Borchers said that Apple gave accessory developers a strong hint that this was going to happen a while ago, but he said that some companies have continued to implement FireWire-based chargers despite the warning.
But there’s some hope in sight: Borchers told me that at least a couple of third parties will be releasing converters that will pass through the dock connection, but convert the power to a USB standard. That adapter may make many of those charging devices come back to life."
That is from the link he provided.

Hammacher schlemmer portable speaker dock won't charge iPhone

It won't charge unless it plugged into the wall and the whole purpose I bought this dock is that it was suppose to charge the iPhone for a oversees flight With a 4 hr charge ? Anyone have any suggestions?

I found the item on their website. The way I read the description, you have to charge the dock for 4 hours before expecting it to keep the iPhone charged.
If you charged the dock for 4 hours and it didn't work, it may be defective so I'd call Hammacher Schlemmer for help.

Iphone 3G Charging issues after software upgrade

I recently upgraded my iphone 3G software to 3.0.1. Things were working just fine until this morning when i tried charging my phone by plugging it to a wall socket. I was surprised to learn that my phone would not charge. I then plugged it via USB to my computer and it started charging. I tried the following steps to resolve my phone's problem:
1. reset my phone settings;
2. hard reset; and
3. disable push for my accounts.
Despite following these steps, my phone would still not charge through an electrical outlet. Although it seems like a consolation that my phone would still charge via USB, I find it very inconvenient to lug my laptop around and open it every time I need to charge my phone. Hope to hear from those who have successfully dealt with this problem. Thanks in advance.

I have a similar issue - w/two different variants.
Charging was an issue before and after upgrade.
And the phone will charge if I try different outlets (sometimes as many as 4 or 5 which I think might be due to different circuit breakers) - once I get it working in one, then I can go back to the first outlet and the phone will charge when I plug it in.
I was about to post this concern in a separate thread (and still will) because this is a huge issue when I travel. I did swap my wall adapter without any change. My wife ALSO has the same issue with her 3G iPhone.
FRUSTRATING -

Dodge Journey (2010) iPod connector won't charge iPhone 3Gs

I was told that the iPod connector in the glove box would connect and charge my iPhone 3Gs. It connects but it won't charge the phone. Is there a different cable that would help?

There is a cable available from mopar, it is white in color and compatible with the iphone charging, i beleive it still asks you to turn airplane mode on but you can ignore that.

Why is my iphone 3g slower since software upgrade...

I know other people who have complained about the same thing that the 3g is slower since the software upgrade a few months back. Why? Everything on the phone is a tad slower since the upgrade. Weren't upgrades designed to improve the performance, not decrease it?

are you up to date with the siftware?
do you have a lot of memory left?
have you tried a hard reset? a reset network settings? a restore?
all can be done to try to resolve the issue, try those first before giving up

IPod Touch skips, stutters, glitches through songs since software upgrade!

Hi everyone,
*Since I upgraded my iPod Touch* to the latest available software update +(for the 1st Gen is 3.1.3)+, it has become *unable to properly play any music encoded above 128kbps*. Before the upgrade, my iPod could play music encoded in any higher bitrates like a champ! All the way to 320kbps, variable, even Apple Lossless format used to play flawlessly.
Suddenly after the last *firmware update*, most of the songs in my iPod Touch would *skip, glitch and garble, making electronic glitches and annoying noises* for no apparent reason. On occasion, the iPod would even *add several second of silence in the middle of random songs*. It's bizarre!
It definitely took me a while to figure it out, and spent weeks testing and researching what could be the problem. It was truly driving me nuts! The result of all these tests was clear: the *iPod Touch now CHOKES on any music file encoded higher than 128 kbps ACC*. Truly pathetic for such an expensive little jukebox. Even the early MP3 players I owned 10 years ago were able to play variable rate MP3 files without a glitch. *_This is a major bug that needs to be solved_*.
For those interested, I did the following tests through my weeks of research to find out the culprit to this problem:
- - - Reinstalled the device software
- - - Reformatted the device, then updated the software
- - - Uninstalled all apps, reinstalled and tested my music after reinstalling each app
- - - Disabled Wi-Fi (no difference)
- - - Copied over my music library from scratch, several times (it was painful)
- - - Reformatted a few albums in different bitrates, from 96kbps, all the way to 320kbps, both in constant and variable rates, and tested them one by one. This took days.
In the end, there is one thing that was consistently clear: *any songs encoded over 128kbps would skip, glitch and sound corrupted. Time after time*. All those music files I had encoded at higher rates +(192 kbps, variable 240 kbps and beyond)+ would make the iPod choke.
There is one temporary solution to this mess, but it involves reducing the quality of your music files: The only way I can now play my music collection in my iPod Touch without skips and glitches is by downconverting my files to the now *obsolete 128kbps*. Only when I converted my music to 128kbps, the annoying skips and glitches stopped. For an audiophile like myself, this was an absolutely painful decision, as I can tell the *obvious loss in quality and nuance in my music files since i had to downconvert them*.
Funny: this skipping problem *also affects any files purchased from iTunes* +(encoded at 240 kbps variable rate)+. Should I ask for my money back, Apple?
I find this irritating and painful, since *the ONE THING the iPod is supposed to do well* (aside from apps, games, and web browsing) *is to PLAY AUDIO AND MUSIC FILES*.
I spent a lot of money on this machine, and until recently it worked like magic; I just wished it played music again like it's supposed to. It's what the iPod was built to do. *Apple: Please fix the software!*
I wonder if there's a forum where I could post my detailed findings, so Apple engineers can take note of this *MAJOR BUG*.
PS: I have recently learned this is a very common bug, and tons of people are reaching out telling me they are experiencing the same annoying problems. Furthermore, *this seems to affect not just the 1st Gen, but ALL generations of the iPod Touch*. It's a *widespread software issue* that was not properly addressed in the latest software upgrade. I'm starting to worry about Apple's quality assurance process.

Hi everyone. Thanks to a tip in another forum, I think I had a breakthrough regarding this problem. I have the strong suspicion it's not the software for the iPod Touch, but instead, the problem comes from *iTunes and how it handles USB 2.0 transfers*.
To make a long story short, all your *music that's encoded above 128 kbps gets corrupted when you transfer it to your Touch from iTunes through your USB 2.0 connection*. That's where the problem is!
I performed this simple test:
*PART 1 - WIFI*
- I connected my iPod Touch via Wi-Fi to the iTunes Store. Bought an album encoded at a very high bitrate (Coldplay's "Viva la Vida", encoded at 256KBPS).
- Downloaded the Coldplay album directly to my iPod Touch via Wi-Fi.
- Tested every song in the album, and they all played flawlessly.
*PART 2 - USB 2.0*
- Now, I erased the Coldplay album from my iPod Touch.
- Connected my iPod Touch to my computer, and downloaded the album again via iTunes. I copied the very same album to my iPod Touch, this time using the USB 2.0 connection.
- I tested every song in the album. Guess what: most of them are corrupted, skipping, glitching, making garbled noises.
I think a reached a minor "eureka" moment. *It's not the iPod Touch software: It's iTunes, and how iTunes deals with your USB 2.0 connection*.
Now, I'm not an engineer, and I don't know how to fix this problem. I wonder if there's anyone out there there that knows why high bitrate files get corrupted during the file transfer. Hope anyone can shed some additional light on this issue, so we can find a solution.

Phone won't send pictures since Leopard upgrade

I have a Nokia 6682 smartphone. I use the bluetooth mainly to send pictures I take w/ the phone to my Macbook.
However, ever since I upgraded to Leopard, the phone won't successfully connect. I have tried re-configuring the device pairing among other random things. Still no luck.
Any suggestions? Anyone having a similar problem with a bluetooth device and Leopard?

BlackBerry Q10 bluetooth issues since software upgrade

I have a BBQ10 and a chevy sonic with mylink. UP until Monday night they paired fine everything worked and then I had a software upgrade on my BlackBerry. It installed just fine no issues there. Now when I try to make/receive calls while using bluetooth in the car my phone has to be using speaker. Handset doesn't work, nor does bluetooth. The first time I start car up and the devices pair I can get the bluetooth to ask me "what would u like to do" I can get all the way to connecting to the call. As soon as call is connected it tells me it's going into private mode. This is the point where only the speaker on the phone itself will work. I can not talk via bluetooth or "handset" speaker only or I don't hear people but they hear me. I know it's not an issue with the mylink in car I paired my mum's bold and everything works as it should. Suggestions?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Problem solved. Changed phone name. Deleted pairing between phone and car bluetooth rebooted phone turned car off and back on. Repaired devices and seems to be fine now

My aps won't open. Installed software upgrade last night and now my apps (3G S) won't open

Last night I did a software upgrade and now when I try to open my aps they blink and do not open. What's the fix?

I have a brand new 4G, just got a request to update to OS5.0. so I did that. I can't download a single game, all of which are free. After I get the ridiculous message about "Terms and Conditions" having changed, I accept it but it never does anything, just says "Loading" and never gets the app, it doesn't show up in my download history, and no icons on the screen. Other apps just say "Waiting" and never do anything either. I have an awesome connection and signal to my router, and all other features of the phone work.

Alpine CDA-9884 car stereo won't charge iPhone 4. Worked fine with 1st gen

Why can I not charge my iPhone 4 from my car stereo as I have done for the past couple of years with my 1st gen iPhone?
Does the new battery charge differently?

It's the iOS4.0 that is messing it up, I have a 3GS and work at a Car Audio Shop and 100% of every model of every manufacturer does not work with the OS4. Some of these radio were just release less then a month ago built specificaly for iPhones, and after the update to OS4 they no longer function. Same Phone, same radio, different OS different results. Sonys will just sit there frozen with Ipod displayed on the screen. Pioneer Radios will display searching then after a few mins give Error-19. Kenwoods flash Searching.... forever. Alpines display Device Error, the alpine thats made for iphone and pandora never recognize the phone or ipod even if you have the pandora alpine link app running. JVC displays Searching forever. So your going to have to wait 6 months or more before you can get a new radio that can work with the OS4 and iPhone 4. If you have an older iPhone and want to keep your radios working with them, just dont allow the upgrade. Hopefully apple can patch whatever is blocking the comunication ports these radios use, or put the old code they removed back in so they become backwards compatible, but I wouldn't bet on it, if they break your stuff and do nuthing about it you have to buy more stuff, which makes them more money. Just a Heads Up. Was hoping to come here and see some hadn't had the same problems but looks like theres alot of issues with OS4 tbh.
