3g problems since iOS 5.0.1 update to iphone 4

Since updating my iphone 4 to iOS 5.0.1 my 3G has been practically not working at all! It's showing as 3G enabled, but its acting as though it's off.
I've tried restoring my network settings and it has not made a difference. I literally cant use the internet on my phone anymore - however, Wifi is fine. Help?

Open a command window with Administrator privileges and type the following command:
    netsh   winsock   reset
Then reboot your computer.

  • HT1222 Has anyone else noticed much greater battery consumption since iOS 5.1.1 update for iPhone?

    Since iOS 5.1.1 update has anyone else noticed a much greater battery consumption on all fronts? My phone used to rock steady all day and know is around 47%  12 noon to 1 pm with the same amount of usage.

    Heres a support question... how the **** do I fix the dramatic battery drain problem that came about after installing 5.1.1?  Suggestions for fixing problems on iTunes did not work.

  • No Service since IOS 6.0.1 Update on Iphone 4S

    Since me and my partner updated to iOS 6.0.1 we constantly have no service message appear but the signal doenst return unless you switch Airplane mode on then back off again and this needs to be done at least 3 times a day.
    I wanted to restore my phone as i was having other issues with the previous ios but i couldnt restore without updating so the update wasnt really a choice as i knew there was an issue with O2 customers
    Ive restored the phone 3 times, reset network settings numerous times, hard reset the phone, turned it off numerous times but nothing works
    I am really annoyed with Apple because it seems as though they only care about the people with the latest and "greatest" technology rather than the slightly older ones like iphone 4 or 4S
    Im disabled and now my phone is deemed useless as i get the "no service" in places where i normally have a full signal

    I'm having the exact same problem, its the most frustrating thing ever. it just goes straight to call failed. then sometime i will lose everyting and it will go to sos only. even if i have 5 bars reception i still have the call failed and cant send recieve text or calls.
    This is on the iphone 5
    So, today i went to my apple store and they swapped over the iphone and i went home and switched it on and got it all up and running & found that it was just running ios 6.0.0 and was working great.......... until, i did the upgrade not thinking anything bad and the BAM! Back to square one, its horrible. It has to be software issue not hardware, so dont waste your time, like i did and go to the apple store. It is definately the latest upgrade of ios 6.0.1
    how do i go back to ios 6.0.0
    DONT DO THE UPGRADE

  • IPhone 3GS no longer works with bluetooth since ios 4.3.2 update

    Hi all. Since the ios 4.3.2 update my iPhone 3GS no longer works correctly with the bluetooth in my car (2006 Acura TL).  I know it's not an issue with the car and the only thing that has changed is the update with the phone.  Anybody else having this issue?  I have unpaired, tried to re-pair, reset the network settings, reset all of the settings, and did a restore.  I'm at a loss with what to do next.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks

    Its becoming a problem of epic proportions...so many people are having the exact same problem...I have a Feb 2010 Toyota Land Cruiser Series 200 and since upgrading to OS 4 my USB function no longer works like it did before the upgrade.
    My Apple has become a LEMON!!
    Would be nice to hear that Apple recognises there is a problem...buut maybe they are too busy counting all their money to care!!

  • I have Mac OS X 10.6.8 (10K549) and there is free update for Maverick will I have problems since there were no free updates prior to this?

    I have Mac OS X 10.6.8 (10K549) and there is free update for Maverick will I have problems since there were no free updates prior to this? I just do not want to loose any data. Thank you for your help.

    you should always make a backup of data regularly, especially when upgrading to a higher version of OS X.  Just because it's free has no bearing on it giving anyone any problems.  The only concern you may have is not all older programs will work with 10.9 that do with 10.6.  Check here to see if you have any programs that would not run in 10.9: https://tidbits.com/article/12156

  • Headphone remote not working after iOS 8.1.2 update on iPhone 5

    Following iOS 8.1.2 update my iPhone 5 no longer responds to the inline remote on my headphones.  Remote still works fine with my laptop so the problem is specific to the updated iPhone.  I am using SkullCandy Earbuds.  Any ideas?  Thanks!

    Hello Nathan,
    After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help with your iPhone's camera. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice for the issue you are experiencing:
    Get help with the camera on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    You see a closed lens or black screen
    If you see a closed lens or black screen when you open the Camera app, try these steps:
    Make sure that there’s nothing blocking the camera lens. If you’re using a case, try removing it.
    Force the app to close, then open the Camera app again.
    Restart your device, then open the Camera app again.
    If your device has a front and rear camera, try both cameras by tapping  (camera swap icon). If you see the closed lens or black screen on only one camera, take your device to an Apple Retail Store or Authorized Service Provider for more help.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    BobbyD

  • Why is iOS 8.2 not updating on iPhone 5S?  It got me to Agree and nothing happens.  Am doing the update via a Wifi connection.

    Hello,
    Why is iOS 8.2 not updating on iPhone 5S?  It got the user to Agree to the Terms and Conditions but nothing happens.  The user is doing the update via a Wifi connection.  Current OS version on the device is 8.1.3.  User did a hard reboot of the device and still the same result.  Not tried using iTunes as a workaround as we want to know why it's not updating via a Wifi connection.  Storage space available is 9G.
    If you know of someone who is experiencing the same issue, please let me know the fix.  Thank you.

    1. I do not know if this will help you or not. In researching this issue with my wife's iPhone 5c 8GB, the most common answer you will get is to adjust this or that setting, and disable this or that App. These at best are only a band-aide solution at all. The best reply I got was from a Verizon Rep that stated "By design, iPhones do turn off WiFi when they go dormant. So if a download is in progress, or information is being back-up wirelessly and the phone goes dormant, it will switch to use cellular data if it is left on". Afterwards, I discovered the exact same information here on the Apple Support Forum to support this statement.
    2. Later onward, I read that if you keep your iPhone connected to a power source, it will prevent it from going dormant. In which case, this will prevent the iPhone from turning off the WiFi, and keep it connected to the WiFi. So far, this has help the most in controlling the amount of data usage being used, by my wife's iPhone.

  • Internet not connecting after ios 7.0.2 update on iphone 5

    Internet not connecting after ios 7.0.2 update on iphone 5

    Hi there PompasJr,
    I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Camera isn't functioning
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Third-party cases can interfere with the autofocus/exposure feature and the flash (iPhone 4 only); try removing the case if you have image-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center. Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. After recording begins, you cannot readjust focus until you stop recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll. Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.

  • Can the iOS 5.0.1 update for iphone work on my ipod touch?

    Is was woundering if you could use the same iOS 5.0.1 update for iPhone on your iPod??

    No, it will not. It must be the version specifically for the iPod Touch.  On top of that you must have a 3G or 4G iPod Touch in order to even install iOS 5 onto it.

  • After the IOS 8.0.2 update, my Iphone 5 has frequently been freezing.

    After the IOS 8.0.2 update, my Iphone 5 has frequently been freezing.
    Normal?

    A restore from backup will not affect your data. You restore the phone and then restore the backup that you have made. Make the backup before you start the restore. If you restore as new, yes it will delete all of the data on your device.

  • Sound problems since IOS 6 update

    Yesterday I updated my iPhone 4s to IOS 6 and since I´ve experienced problems with my speakers. Before the update my phone was working like a charm, but now the sound I low and sound metallic. I've been looking online for solution, but nothing helps!! All volume bottoms are on high, the mono sound is off and I have several times rebooted the phone.. All without luck. I´m desperate so please help..

    I too experienced the same problem with my speakers after updating my iPhone 4S to iOS6. Barely any volume and a metallic sound. I called AppleCare who instructed me to restore the phone to rule out a software issue. The restore didn't fix the problem so they are going to send me out a new phone. I'm still not convinced it's a hardware issue as the phone was working perfectly prior to updating the OS. One of my friends had similar issues after updating his software too however when I quizzed the Apple employee he claimed it was the first time he had heard of such an issue. It will be interesting to see if a bug-fix for this problem is realeased in the next update.

  • Why do i have internet problems since ios 7 update? I have an ipad 4th gen.

    Since ios 7 update my internet on my ipad 4 is very slow how can i fix this?

    Maybe:
    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
    Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
    Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

    Then try restoring on another computer.
    Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
