8900 System upgrade, now phone will not wake up unless I press the standby key.

Yesterday I endured the lengthy recommeded system upgrade on my 8900. Unfortunately, the upgrade did not go perfectly. It was unable to reinstall my chat logs from BB messenger, but I wasn't all that concerned about it.
However......now, when the backlight in the screen times out, I can only wake up the screen when pressing the standby button. No other key will wake up the screen. I checked my settings for screen and keyboard in the options folder, but there is no "default" key choice to wake up the screen. When the screen is black, and I press the "lock" key, it will lock, but the screen also does not "wake up" to show me it has been locked. Apparently only the standby key is being acknowledged once the screen is blacked out.
Is this a "default" setting for the new OS? Or, did the OS just install badly? I have also been told that if you cover the led indicator with your finger, the trackball ring and keys should light up....this also does not seem to be working.
Anyone have any idea what hte formal changes are to the new system upgrade, or is this a bad install, or worse, a bad phone that otherwise worked perfectly BEFORE the upgrade?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Cheers!

My charger switched off my iPhone and now my phone will not switch on unless connected to the charger. But, I cannot access wifi or my sim and the date and time resets. It does not connect to iTunes and freezes after five minutes

It will not recognise sound and if I take it off the charger, it immediately switches off. I've installed iOS8 previously but nothing is working. Please help!!

There's only one thing you can do: make an appointment with Apple genius at the Apple retail store for a out of warranty replacement.

3GS software upgrade now phone will not restore

I just tried to upgrade my 3GS to the latest software version for iphone. Went through the process, got to the end, then it said I had to restore the phone. I have now done it THREE times with no luck. I have the picture of connect the USB cable to itunes. HELP!

If you backed them up the way you would with any digital camera you would have them in your photo app on your computer. They should also be in your iPhone backup on your computer as of the last sync you did, or in iCloud if you were backing up to iCloud.

Well, 99.9% of the time, the cause of this issue is the fact the phone was jailbroken/hacked to unlock it for use on networks other than the network the phone was originally locked to. Apple maintains a database of officially unlocked iPhones, and when Apple's servers detect phones such as yours, activation stops & you get the message you got.
So, either get a sim card from the carrier your phone was originally locked to, or get it officially unlocked.

Hello rblacktx,
If you changed your Apple ID (which is an email address), then you should be able to sign out of your iTunes Store account and sign back in with the updated information. Take a look at the resources below:

Ipad does not show up in itunes even though cable plugged in. Have shut down and restarted Windows 7 computer.

I had done all of that to no avail. I did call Apple Tech Support and after he suggested I try a USB port in the rear of the Win 7 computer, things starting working again. I had tried switching the USB port at the front of the machine but that had not helped. Everything is good to go again. thanks for your reply

I turn off the phone will not turn to dear, I need the photos emergencies because there I have very important information. That I can do to recover photos. I understand that you had downloaded the iCloud but when I Icloud not appear on photos.

Through iTunes, plug it in and you should be able to do a iCloud restore

Sounds like a verification issue on whatever marketplace you bought PS Touch from. Did you try contacting Google or Apple to see what they say?

Try rebooting it and connect. Make sure you're connected directly to a USB port using the Apple USB cable.

My MacPro will not wake up from sleep after the 10.8.2 upgrade.

Since latest os upgrade to 10.8.2, my mac will not wake up from sleep.

Please read this whole message before doing anything. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it. The purpose of this test is to determine whether your problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Why did my charger already go bad..bought another one and it went bad..now phone will not charge..only had it 2 months..what a disappointment so far..should have stayed with Apple..would like to get my money back. Terrible experience so far.

Why did my charger from Verizon already go bad..bought another one and it went bad..now the phone will not charge..what a disappointment and a hassle..should have stuck with Apple..only had the phone 2 months. Hope they will exchange it!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is either a Phone issue or an Electrical issue in your home.! when charging Do you always use the same electrical outlet? or did you try others..
You will know or should know if there are any issues with your other Electronics.. that you Plug into it..
If it is the s5 which it sounds like it could be then the Local Verizon store at there Discretion will determined if replacement is needed you have a 1 year Manufactures Warranty that covers for things like what your Describing I would take it too your local store see if they'll get you a Replacement or you may have to go through Samsung..
But I would Try another OUTLET just to see if your phone charges with it.. And Good Luck b33
