3G Iphone freezes in maps and directions

My 3G iphone freezes when I use Maps and directions and when I use my camera sometimes. Restarting helps for a short time.
It is up to date. Is this because Apple is not updating 3G's as often as newer phones?

Hello Mizzrebecc,
Congratulations on your new iPhone! Thank you for also providing the details of the issues you are experiencing with your iPhone.
I recommend following these steps for issues like this (you can skip 4 because it does not relate to the issue you are experiencing):
If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on),reset your device.
If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
Let charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
You can find the full article here:

If you get to step 5, I recommend backing up your iPhone before performing the restore:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

I have problem with using maps and directions.

Hi,
I'm using iPhone 5, I purchased before 1 year from Qatar. I have a problem with maps and direction here, I have attached error message. Please kindly inform me reason.

The feature(s) you are looking for don't appear to be available in your country.

E 51 freezing with maps and GPS

My E 51 is sometimes freezing while using maps with GPS LD4W.
Anybody any idea why? I happens most of the time after using maps for a few hours without problem.

You assume your company is a "Destination"?
People are going to navigate from East McKeysport just to come visit you?
Garmin works everywhere, even where there is no cell coverage like the middle of
Alaska, Texas, and the desert south west. Even getting GSM signals there is a challenge. Forget 3G.
Garmins (and tomtoms) are optimized for driving. You can even get voice command versions. You can download new map yearly. (How quick do you think they build new roads?).
You get turn by turn voice directions, Lane change hints, Speed Camera warnings, waypoint info, and bluetooth interface with your phone. It imports your phone's phone book, lets you dial on the screen, Knows the phone numbers of all the hotels along your route, reads your text messages to you in your native language, calculates your ETA, advises you of traffic snarls and routes you around them, records your trip log, gets current gas prices from MSN, and Yes, even recommends restaurants. It delivers you to the proper side of the street when you select and address, not on the wrong side of 6 lanes of traffic. It tells you what the current speed limit is, knows which streets are one way and even show traffic levels. It projects an image similar to the road layout and instantly recalculates your route when you don't pay attention and miss a turn.
If you want that in a phone, you better hope Garmin slaps a phone chip in the Personal Navigation Devices, as they were rumoring to be planning. Its much easier to fit a phone into a complex gadget than to fit the Gadget into a phone.
If you think your iPhone, or any phone is going to do all that for you, you are delusional.

Help! iPhone freezing, not responding, and turning itself on and off randomly.

Over the last few days, my iPhone has been going crazy. It all started when I turned on my phone one morning, and the ringer did not work. It told me that headphones were in when I tried to turn the volume up. Later in the day, I plugged my iPhone into my iHome. It then "died" and would not turn on. I tried everything (hard reboot, dfu mode, plugging in wall and computer, etc.) and nothing would turn it on. The next day, I tried to turn it on, and to my surprise, it loaded the "low battery" icon. i plugged it in, and it turned on. It then randomly shut off ten minutes later. It would not turn on, but it allowed me to put it into dfu mode. I downloaded the os and attempted to restore the iPhone. It shut itself off several times and took many attempts until I finally got it restored. Now, it has been turning itself on and off. I got it to turn on, and I used it until it froze. It shut itself off and reboot. It has continued to do this over and over again. I am concerned because my iPhone is out of warranty, and I live far away from anywhere where I can get it fixed. I have no idea what happened to my phone as I did not drop it or expose it to water. Is there any way to fix this? Is there a way to find what part may be broken? If not, what is the cheapest and fastest method of fixing this and is anyone else having the same problems? My phone is currently unusable because I can not turn it on (it only turns on randomly) and it freezes and shuts off a few minutes after it turns on.

Does it power back on by itself straight after turning off? If so I would probably suggest that either the charging port is faulty or maybe it is partially blocked with debris causing a possible short circuit across the pins. Try giving it a clean out first with something none metallic and might just do the trick.

My iphone freezes up frequently and i have to connect to Imac to restart. Any easire fixes?

My Iphone frequently freezes up, especially after a download. To get it working I need to connect to Imac. Any easier way to fix or avoid?

Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new device.
Have you tried ALL the troubleshooting steps? If you have and you're still having problems, then you'll need to bring your phone into Apple for evaluation and possible exchange.

Best map app for mileage counter, maps and directions?

I'm traveling across country and I want to find a map app that not only shows routes, directions, etc. as maps does, but also can tell me the mileage between two cities, say Chicago and Baton Rouge? Anyone know of a good app for that?

Even though I have a beef on this board about it (map download times) you might want to check out the Motion X family of apps. I have the GPS HD that is for the iPad and it's a nice looking app, lots of features. It does have a measurement tool to get distances between two points, but it is "as the crow flies" and not over roads.
My app was only $2.99 so it's not a bad deal.

HT1937 Hey buddy my iphone freezes some times and sometimes when i m running my apps it stops and i get returned to hone screen

Hey guyz plz gelp me out from this problem

What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?
Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
- Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear. (For iOS 6, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
- Relaunch the App and try again.
- Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
- Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
- Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
- Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
- Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
- Test the issue after each step. If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

IPhone freezing when installing or uninstalling application during sync

hi,
I've been running to issues with iPhone freezing during install and uninstalling of Applications during iTunes sync. The installation or remove seems to complete after I force reboot iPhone, but sort of troublesome as I'm having to reboot iPhone for every app I try to install or remove. Also, when trying to install or remove application from iPhone's appstore, iPhone gets very unstable and the installation or remove of application never completes.
Is anyone running into this issue? Any workaround (maybe I need to use Mac instead of windows xp ... ?)

I think finally figured out the problem...
This was due to one of the application I had (purchased) installed called "Wisdom dictionary".
This has been taken off of iTunes already but apparently this application was causing other application to not install. The application is about 120 megs, and the company is currently investigating some memory issue related to expanding the installer. It appears to be Apple issue, they are in contact with Apple, but apparently there is no info from Apple when the issue would be addressed....
Anyway, without this application, my iPhone so far has been working pretty well.
It may be possible other large apps may have similar issues.... not sure.

TS1398 my problem is my iphone 4s is connected to the internet(wi-fi) with full signal strength but freezes when browsing and says "Cannot Open Page, Safari could not open page because the server stopped responding".

my problem is my iphone 4s is connected to wi-fi with full signal(3 bars) strength but freezes when browsing and says
"Cannot Open Page"
"Safari could not open page because the server stopped responding"
I already reset the iphone to its factory settings and erase all contents but still the browsing speed freezes or not searching at all. Sometimes it will work and fast but then the problem uccors every now and then. Iv'e been using iphone 4 for two years and I still have it and works fine compared to this IPHONE 4S.

Settings → scroll down to Safari → in Safari settings, I selected both Clear History and Clear Cookies and Data.
IF that does not work -
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Finally - if problem still present -
Go to Settings>General>Reset
Reset the network settings - you will need to add the password of your home WiFi in your phone once more
The device should turn itself off & back on then go into Settings>Wifi and join your network

Can I upload a simple iPhone App that all it does is direct the User to a Filemaker Pro URL   fmp://~filename.fmp?$VariableName=Value This launches Filemaker Go and directs the user to the Database Hosted online
Right now there is no app store for Filemaker Go.   Filemaker Forgot about us.
So I want to create a simple native iPhone App that all it does
is launch
fmp://~/filename.fmp12?$VariableName=value
This URL will launch the Filemaker Go App
Filemaker Go is a app that the user will have to have
downloaded already on the device..
The Simple Native app will launch the Filemaker Go.
The fmp URL has the information where the Filemaker Pro database is hosted
and get the user where they need to be..
Help Me please
iPhone 5s, iOS 8.1.3

That would be software. And, you said "upload." That's "uploading software." Why do you question what you stated?
I don't know where you even want to upload this software. The only way it can be downloaded to a device is through the iTunes store. Do you even know what you want to do?

The Iphone 4 patch IOS 7.6 is suppose to be a security update but it freezes the phone and doesn't reset. Help I need my phone. What makes the phone go back to normal? There is nothing but a simulated plug in wire and an ITunes icon on a black screen.

Google Calendar maps and iPhone maps not working together anymore

For several months I was accessing google calendar through Safari. I was able to click on the map link and it would take me to the iPhone maps. About a week ago it started to take me to Google mobile map page, which is not integrated into anything on the iPhone maps such as that GPS thingy which is kind of useful. Anyone have any thoughts on how I can get this to go back?
I did the upgrade to 2.2 already and no changes.

I agree. I posted about this about a month ago and the only answer I got was that perhaps it was the way which google was choosing to handle the functionality. I think the feature where you can click on an address in your Google Calendar (and it should work on your Iphone Calendar as well), and it comes up in the Iphone Maps application, is completely necessary, as the map in safari is basically worthless. I had previously bragged about this feature, and now it's gone?! BRING IT BACK!
