Blocking iphone, Blocking iphone
My Iphone 3GS was updated to IOS5.1 Since then the iphone sometimes blocks during normal operation. During phonecals, or while using an app. I'm not able to reproduce it, but it certainly wil happen a few times a day. The screen turns grayish and the picture fades away.
Then, when I restart it shows the Apple logo and then nothing. It seems to loop, ai switching off, switching on, apple logo, switching off etc.
Until i restart it while charging the battery. Although the battery is still fully charged. Then it restarts completely and i can use the phone again. Apparently it needs the cable attached to the socket.
This works until the next time it blocks, typically within the next hour.
I have already (through DFU and itines) reinstalled the full software. The operation itself went well, but it didn't solve the problem.
Regular use, limited amount of relatively simple applications (mostly newspaper, mail, facebook etc). More then 10 GB free (on a 16 GB phone)
There seems to be a lot of info in the "diagnose and use" section, but not understandable to me.
Anyone suugestions please.
The device cannot be disabled, only the network access. Nothing will prefent it from being used as an iPod, for example. In the US, even IMEI blocking is not available, but it is in the EU. Changing the SIM card is not going to alter the IMEI of the phone - you might be able to get the IMEI from your former carrier. It may also be printed on the receipt from when you bought the phone.

How do I replace someone else's Mac ID with my own?
Bought iPhone second hand on TradeMe.
Previous owner re-set the phone but his ICloud account stayed on now my phone. He uses his AppleID on his new iPhone now and, understandably, does not want to give me his password. Any ideas?? Please.
This issue is blocking my access to iTunes and any other file from my home computer. It keeps on telling me that I have to autorise my computer to pass on files, yet, it seems, for all this to happen, I need to get logged in through the phone's Apple ID. This of course is different to my one on my computer - and I have no password for it.
This phone is not stolen!! I payed still a fair bit for it. Am still in contact with the previous owner. He doesn't know how to fix the problem either.
Would appreciate any suggestion ????
Thanks

That will put it back to its out of the box state. Set it up with your own apple Id. -
How can I block an e-mail address from sending me spam on my iPhone 5s? My ISP is unable to help. I can block on my laptop via Outlook, but they still come through on my iPhone 5s. Thank you very much.
You can "Move to Junk" and it should start doing it automatically after a few times:

I have a friend who uses an iPod to iMessage me and about two nights ago, my messages to him from my iPhone were no longer listed as delivered and then I started getting the message "Contact is unavailable. This person cannot be reached by iMessage at this time." I have my main iMessage email and phone number linked to my iPhone. I decided to try messaging him from an iPad that only has my iMessage email linked to it, and the iPad gave me a message saying his email is not linked to an iMessage account. After that, I tried ANOTHER iPad. This one runs iOS 5 and has a separate iMessage email linked to it and the messages were not listed as delivered, but they did not give me a failure message. I unlinked my main iMessage email from my phone and linked the secondary iMessage email to it. I still got the first message about the contact being unavailable when I attempted to send a message from my iPhone. Then, I messaged him again from the iPad running iOS 5, and the message I sent showed up on my iPhone and was listed as delivered. Is it possible this friend has blocked me? He has not messaged me for two days. I was under the impression a block would simply result in my messages being listed as delivered, not that the contact would be unavailable or that his email is not linked to an iMessage account. Is there any way to force my iPhone to send messages to him using only my iMessage email and not cell phone number? Is this actually a fluke and he has deleted his iMessage account, but the iPad running iOS 5 did not recognize that? But why would my iphone list the messages as delivered then?
After much research went with Comcast. Package includes 12mbs, phone service, all premium channels, 2 HD dvrs, 1 HD receiver. After promos end I will be paying more, but I'm getting more. Customer service before purchase and installation phenomenal. I actually set up order over phone instead of online because of the customer service. No complaints about Direct TV, but canceeling them also because from having to shop for new Isp resulted in this. My speedtest now says I am 85% faster than most of the U.S. I am very happy. I would consider my verizon problem solved. Oh, free router also.

There is no way to block text messages. You may wish to report them to your carrier

By incoming calls my iphone dos only vibrate (no tune) and it shows "blocked".How can I get back the tunes?
Greetings Nefertiti72,
It seems you are experiencing an issue with contact syncing and management. It seems you've removed an email account which contained a number of contacts that are not associated with your iCloud account. I have linked to a knowledge base article which provides more information about iCloud contacts syncing:
Get help using iCloud Contacts - Apple Support
Learn what to do if you’re having issues using iCloud Contacts. For example, you might make changes to Contacts that don't update across all of your devices.
You may want to consider importing the contacts from the email account you removed. You can do it easily by following the steps in this article:
iCloud: Import a vCard
You can import an electronic business card, also called a vCard, into iCloud Contacts. If the vCard contains contact information for more than one person, each contact becomes a separate entry.
In iCloud Contacts, choose Import vCard from the Action pop-up menu , which appears at the bottom of the All Contacts list or a list of group contacts
Select a vCard to import.
The contacts from the vCard are added to the All Contacts group in Contacts. You can add the contacts to any other group by dragging them to the desired group.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Best,

How do I block a number from calling my iPhone
How do I block a number from phoning or texting me on my iPhone. My Provider (Optus) say they cannot block a number. Has anyone been able to do this?
the only other option if your carrier cant block the number is to pay to change your phone number.

How do I block a phone number calling my iPhone?
How do I block a phone number calling my iPhone, so it only hears a busy tone?
You cannot do this on the iPhone - this is a feature/service that must be provided by the carrier. Contact your carrier and ask if they can do this. In the US, for example, AT&T offers as part of the SmartLimits package.

On previous iPhones you could go to settings and block the the actual text message from pooping up. Only the sender would show up. On the i4gs the sender and message show up. This is a major flaw as far as privacy. There are no options with in settings to stop this from happening. PLEASE TELL ME IM WRONG ???
YOU ARE WRONG.
Go to Settings > Notifications > Messages. You can turn Notifcation Center off for Messages, or select None for the alert style, and turn Show Preview off, and view in Lock Screen on or off. -
I have the Iphone 4 but before this I had a different phone and had blocked someone from contacting me via calls/texts. Unbeknownst to me, when I got the Iphone 4, that I cannot block Imessages. I have turned off Imessage for the time being but I'm seriously considering changing my phone number. If I change the number with my carrier and turn Imessage back on, what do I have to do to ensure that any previous messages don't come through and any future messages cannot be sent?

I am using Iphone 4 (not 4s) After upgrading to ios 5.0.1. is blocking. I live in Venezuela
Without more information, I have to say it sounds like the phone you have was not legitimately unlocked, but had been hacked. Updating iOS will re-lock it to the original carrier.
ONLY the carrier it is locked to can authorize unlocking it.
Where did you get the phone? -
Hello experts! (I also posted in another category -- but then was directed here.)
With the lastest iOS update, I can now block a particular spammer from repeatedly sending Facetime requests to me on my iPhone. But the same requests keep pouring in on Facetime on my computer.
How can I block this spammer from all the requests hitting my computer's Facetime? I know I can turn off Facetime on the computer, but it seems wrong that a single spammer can force me to stop using an application on my computer.
Thank you for any guidance on this issue!Open iphoto

My both of iphone id blocked. What do I have to do?
Sorry, but nobody here can help you nor can Apple. The only way to disable Activation Lock on your devices is to use the password for the AppleID associated with that devices iCloud account. There is no alternative - you need that password, or you need your friend to disable those devices in their online account.
