Anyone see an ios 7.1.2 boot issue AFTER updating?

From everything I read, I wonder if iOS 7.1.2 has a general boot issue. I have 4 devices, one of which locked on update. When i reset it and checked the crash log, my reset counter was zero and it said there was a boot failure. There was no indication of any application crash for the time in question.
I never reboot any of my devices, so I don't know, but it crossed my mind that perhaps the lockups on boot or booting into recovery mode has nothing to do with the update process, but is related to rebooting 7.1.2 in general. In other words, just because the devices are working fine now, is there still a chance that any of them can lockup or go into recovery mode the next time they are reset?

There appears to be a plethora of similar reports out there (I've been looking around). So we wait for Apple to provide a fix for this problem.
What I am most unhappy about is the inability to downgrade to, at least, the last known working firmware; in this case, 7.1.1. In situations like this, newly introduced problems become a corporate liability, more so on the part of end users that experience limited use of these expensive devices due to these newly-introduced problems. Then, there is the added liability of support calls, feedback/bug reports, etc.
I do not see any logic in the decision to disable downgrading firmware -- in this case, it's seems more paranoia (ie: jailbreak prevention) than a solid engineering decision, in my opnion.

[solved] Boot issues after update caused by LVM

Hi,
I know that there are some threads regarding boot issues but I haven't been able to find a solution for my problem.
I have the following partitions:
$ lsblk
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda 8:0 0 74.5G 0 disk
├─sda1 8:1 0 128M 0 part /boot
├─sda2 8:2 0 2G 0 part [SWAP]
└─sda3 8:3 0 72.4G 0 part
├─vg_trinity-root (dm-0) 254:0 0 10G 0 lvm /
└─vg_trinity-home (dm-1) 254:1 0 25G 0 lvm /home
I have
USELVM="yes"
in my rc.conf and the following im mkinitcpio.conf:
HOOKS="base udev autodetect pata scsi sata lvm2 filesystems"
Still, when booting the volume group does not get activated. The following message appears:
:: running hook [lvm2]
Activating logical volumes...
No volume groups found
Waiting 10 seconds for device /dev/mapper/vg_trinity-root ...
ERROR: Unable to find root device '/dev/mapper/vg_trinity-root'.
You are being dropped to a recovery shell
Type 'exit' to try and continue booting
sh: can't access tty: job control turned off
[rootfs /]#
At that point I just run
lvm vgchange -ay
exit the shell and booting continues. So somehow activation of the volume group does not occur early enough. I reinstalled udev, mkinitcpio, linux and generated a new boot image as proposed in https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 4#p1059124 but to no avail. Is there anything else that might be wrong with my configuration?
Thanks for any help.

My apologies. Usually I'm quite good at searching but this one slipped right past me. Marking as solved (even though the root cause is still WIP).

Hi Mofimac,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your Mac is only starting up to a blank gray or white screen after updating OS X, you can find some useful troubleshooting steps in this article:

I recommend going through these first three sections first:
Disconnect, test peripheral devices and network cables
Perform a Safe Boot
Reset the NVRAM / PRAM

I had used Iphone4 to update to ios 7.0.4(11B554a) but after update whenever I want to create new contact, I can't type in the word because the keypad don't appear, what should I do? Can I uninstall the update of ios 7.0.4?

You cannot uninstall the update. Apple does not support downgrading. What troubleshooting have you done? Start with a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. Are you syncing contacts with iCloud?

Mac OSx won't boot up after update to 10.6.7?

Hi Mike
This is called a kernel panic, similar to s 'blue screen of death' on Windows. When you say you reinstalled 3 times, do you mean the OS or the Update?
When does this kernel panic appear? You may have a hardware issue if it's happening on boot.

Boot issue after shutdown plus power - no problem after restart or after removing power cord

Hello,
I have a Pavilion Elite m9275.nl desktop. I experience boot issues after a regular shut down.
After a regular shut down and pressing the power button within a few seconds/minutes, it keeps hanging in the HP startup / BIOS screen, Windows 8 won't boot, the hard drive light doesn't flash;
After a restart from Windows (instead of shut down) it boots correctly from the c-drive. No hard-drive problems at all;
After a shut down and removing the power cord for 10-15 minutes, it boots correctly from the c-drive. No hard-drive problems at all.
When the PC does not boot, F10 (to enter BIOS settings) does not work neither, so it seems to be a hardware or BIOS issue.
I already replaced the CMOS battery and already loaded default BIOS settings.
During a succesful boot or after pressing F10 (to enter BIOS settings) the screen shows some disk information right after the BIOS. This is the screen that says something like "press CTRL-I to start configuration utility". During a succesful boot the hard disk light flashes shortly before displaying that screen. During an unsuccesful boot the hard disk doesn't flash.
Before replacing a hardware component, I need to know what to replace...
Could it be the hard disk controller or hard disk is defect?
Where is the hard disk controller stored?
Can I upgrade the firmware of the hard disk controller?
BUT: why does it work when I remove the power cord for 15 minutes or after a restart (instead of a shutdown and than pressing power)?
Many thanks in advance,
Sjoerd-Jaap Westra

Logic Remote connectivity issues after updating to iOS 8 (solved!)

Has anyone else has been experiencing connectivity issues with Logic Remote after updating to iOS 8?
After updating to iOS 8 I could no longer connect so I sent a feedback report to Apple and got a response that cleared up my problem immediately:
Navigate to the following directory on your desktop system running GarageBand:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.garageband10/Data/Library/Preferences/
You can quickly navigate there using the “Go” menu in Finder -> Go To Folder (shift-command-G), then copy this path:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.garageband10/Data/Library/Preferences/
In the Preferences folder should be a file named "com.apple.garageband10.cs”.
Make sure GarageBand is not running and delete the "com.apple.garageband10.cs” file.
Relaunch GarageBand and see if you should now be able to connect.
The same can be done for Logic by navigating to:
~/Library/Preferences/
And deleting "com.apple.logic.pro.cs" and restarting Logic.
Note that doing this will fix Logic Remote connectivity issues (and possibly other problems with latency and mixer functionality) but will also delete any other Controller settings that you've configured with Logic, if you happen to be using another controller of some sort.

Thanks very much! This solved my connection problem.

Mac Book Pro doesn't boot (twice; after updating) and slow performance before these incidents

Hi,
Maybe someone can help me resolving a (re) boot issue with my Mac Book Pro. Last few weeks I experienced a tremendous drop in performance (start-up as well as handling and using applications).
Yesterday I downloaded and installed an app to clean stuff from the mac, such as binaries that aren't used, cache files, etc. It resulted in substantial better performance. Than, I used the updater on this application to update. This morning, the Mac wouldn't boot. After several attempts I used the old DVD with Mac OS X to re-install and boot. That worked.
Following this approach, I received two messages (that HP apps weren't secured or something and therefor disabled). Than I updated the Mac OS X and later this evening it asked me if I wanted to install some (4) other updates as well (don't know what updates these were). So I updated but now I am back at square one: My Mac doesn't boot. I do get the grey starting screen, but now even the 'apple' logo is missing.
Anyone else experiencing these problems and have any clues on how to fix it? By the way, I also tried to alter permissions on all files on the main hard drives (to ensure that I do not always have to sign off on updates and or changes of applications). Would that have caused problems?

You seem to have a lot going on here, so it's hard to know what's wrong. You likely had some underlying problems before doing the Software Update.
Here's a link that might help with the grey screen problem:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570
Which app did you download?
If you can get booted up, check in the System Profiler to see that all of your RAM is recognized--if not, you may need to reseat one or both sticks.
If you can boot from your install disc, run the extended version of the Apple Hardware test to check for hardware problems. Freezing can be caused by a dying hard drive, which can also tend to corrupt software.
While booted from the install disc, navigate to Disk Utility and repair your boot disk. You can do this 2 or 3 times even if it says no problems found.
While in Disk Utility, check to see that the SMART status of your hard drive is verified. If not, you will need to replace the drive.
It probably wouldn't hurt to reinstall the OS.
Do you have a good, up to date backup? If not, it would be a good idea to make one as soon as you can, just to be on the safe side.
Have you tried a Safe Boot?

Ios 8.x wifi issue after update

I have been having intermittent wifi connectivity issues with my apple devices since upgrading to ios 8.x. I've subsequently updated to most recent version 8.0.2 but alas still having the issues of intermittent wifi connectivity issues (wifi works then drops without reason).
The baseline critical information is:
-Cable modem with direct internet connectivity of 20Mbps down and 2Mbps up.
-Home netgear WNDR3700v3 running latest version of firmware V1.0.0.38_1.0.31.
-Apple 5s, 5c, 5 and iPad min, iPad 2 - iphones running latest issue of IOS but ipads intentionally left back to prior versions for purpose of testing.
-Forced DNS servers to google servers 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
-Security perimeter policies in place prevent external unwarranted proxy attacks, pin hole attacks, etc. No outbound (internal to external) flows are restricted and only established flows (external to internal) are permitted.
Problem statement:
-Wifi will drop on all iphones using current version of ios causing devices to fall back to LTE or 3g.
-Reboot of netgear required to reset wireless settings for internal device usage.
-Cable modem never loses connection to internet and plugging direct into cable modem shows continued network connectivity.
-These issues never were experienced prior to updating to IOS 8.x
Question:
It would appear there is a wifi ios issue. Does anyone have any suggestions ? There are no firmware updates available for netgear given its age (2 years old).
I would prefer to not downgrade ios devices if applicable.

Worth taking a look here:
Why does iOS 8.0.2 not resolve the issue of WiFi connectivity with iOS 8 and the new iPhone 6?

Anyone having LTE connection issue after updating to 8.0.2.?

After updating my iPhone 5S to 8.0.2, I can no longer connect my phone to LTE but my iPhone 6 plus is fine. Anyone having the same issue?

There is no IOS 8.0.2 out yet. There is no patch for iPhone5s.
This update is specific for iPhone6/6+ as indicated
Download the file below that corresponds to your device:

iPhone 6 Plus
8.0.2 is out. But if it's true that 8.0.2 is only for iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus, WHY would it appear on devices that aren't 6 or 6 plus? I have two 6 phones and the update went fine. But the update also appeared on our iPad's, which I downloaded and that went fine as well.

Message inbox having issues after updating to IOS 6.1

After updating to IOS 6.1 my SMS inbox has gone crazy. Most of the SMSs have lost their date time stamp. The time of receipt of the SMS for all of them is showing as 9:18 AM, which was the time i took the update 6.1. Is anyone else facing the same issue.
Why is it so that for the last few updates in IOS, it is always the SMS inbox that is having issues? From the last update, the inbox has been showing blank SMSs, and now we have all the messages in inbox with the same time stamp.
Any idea how to rectify this issue ?

i have already this problem , ios 6.1 iphone 4s
is there anyone to report this bug to apple ?
i did anything what i found in internet ( reset, restore, cleaning dock , earphone, and... )
, but still not working .... !

Boot issues after bios update (U430 touch)

Hi all,
I've been having some problems after updating my BIOS on my Ideapad U430 touch. After updating 7CCN34WW to 7CCN35WW, Windows 7 would not boot. It shows the usual 4 colors swirling to the center and then it stalls. Interestingly enough, at the top of the screen, white dotted lines appear (about 1 cm thick). These dotted lines alternate, turning off and on irregularely. I've waiting at least a half an hour, nothing happens.
Now I figured out how to solve this, which is by changing the boot settings in the bios to Legacy instead of UEFI. After changing it back to UEFI everything works again. But every other day or so it still hangs during UEFI and I have to change the bios settings back and forth to get into Windows. Can anyone enlighten me on this issue? It would seem the bios update is faulty? What's going on? Can I downgrade the bios?
In addition, the following topics are related but not quite the same as they don't describe the exact problem I have.

hi gannixon,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
Yes it is possible that a UEFI / Secureboot check fails something in the OS UEFI boot after the update.
The system does not support a backflash feature, Reflashing the BIOS might need to be done in Lenovo Service Depot,
If you don't have much data on the unit, I can suggest performing a one key Recovery while on a UEFI mode.
Downside will be Deletion of current files and documents and back up will be required.

DROID X ..NOT booting up after updates?

DROID X Stays on DROID after update and will not fully boot.
Things I've already tired. All of which did NOT work.
1. took out battery and tried to reboot
2. Took out battery and SD card
3. Took out battery, reboot and pressed home key
4. waited more than 30 minutes with battery out
5. plugged in to wall and left while DROID tried to reboot - stayed on DROID for hours.
Hmm. Any ideas???

You need to do a factory reset. Please read ALL INSTRUCTIONS before starting this procedure. This will reset your phone back to the way it came out of the box. But at this point, the phone is useless anyways, and it should bring it back into a working phone again.
1. With the phone powered off, hold down the home key, then press and hold the power button
2. When the Motorola M shows up, release the power button, but hold the home key until you see a triangle with Andy.
3. Release the home key. press volume up/down at the same time.
4. A menu will show up. Use the volume up/down keys to highlight Factory Reset
5. Press the power button to start the reset.
When the factory reset is done, the phone will reboot. You will have to go through the inital setup process again. If you get a screen asking to backup your settings, DO NOT BACK UP THE SETTINGS. This could back up whatever is corrupt and put you back into the same loop again.
Good luck
