Everyone having issues with i4s:Activation issues,dropped calls,no SMS,no Network...read this for a temp fix!

All,
for all the users out there that have issues with thier new i4s having:
dropped calls
no SMS
no Network
Activation Issues
MultiSIM issues
etc.
You guys must DISABLE your SIM PIN!
I know this is not the best thing to do, but until Apple fixes this, this is the only solution right now!
-> Settings
->Phone
-> Disable SIM PIN
...done...
Cheers

Truth of the matter is ATT was not ready for this. I was ready to turn in my 3G
and go back to my old iPhone when a tech rep at Apple told me to turn off
3G. I went from full bars at home to only one when 3G was on and all of my
calls were getting dropped. After the rep told me this I replied, "excuse me?
You mean the reason I bought the new iPhone, so I can talk and email at the
same time on the 3G network, is not even doable yet?" He replied that they've
been telling customers to turn off the 3G and then the phone would work fine -
which it did. Now I just keep it on the edge network and hope that one day the
3G network will be up to speed and I live in LA! So give it a shot and turn off 3G.
Thanks ATT!

  • IPhone 4S with IOS8 with re-activation issue.

    I've restored and loaded 4S with IOS8. When I try to reactivate it, I'm told that the AppleID my iPhone is linked to isn't the one that was used to set it up.  I also tried my backup email, in case I used that as an AppleID.  That doesn't work either.  Anybody?

    Hi craig101,
    Based on your description (unable to activate your iPhone with your current Apple ID after upgrading to iOS 8), it sounds like you may be having issues with the Activation Lock function of Find My iPhone. You may find the information listed in the following article helpful:

    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.

  • My iPhone 4s will not charge in car or truck. It would appear after research that this is a software issue with ios5. Will there ever be a patch to correct this infuriating problem?!!!

    Mine charges just fine, as does everyone's iPhone 4S that I know. Apple even sells a number of car chargers that are certified to work:

    Perhaps there is a problem with your charger or the outlet you're using in your car/truck.

  • I just got the iPhone 5s, I have had a 4 for the last few years, my husband uses a galaxy.  I have never had issues with any of our phones connecting the the cars Bluetooth until this one sometimes it will connect and sometimes it won't.  I drive a gm car

    I just got the iPhone 5s, I have had a 4 for the last few years, my husband uses a galaxy.  I have never had issues with any of our phones connecting to the cars Bluetooth until this one sometimes it will connect and sometimes it won't.  I drive a gm car.  A friend of mine drives an Acura and said she is also having the same problem?  I have to connect the phone every time I get in the car. 

    Turn Off BT on your Phone & ReBoot..
    Delete the phone from the vehicles memory..
    Restart the Vehicle & go thro' the Pair set up..........

  • I have a iPhone 4S 16 gb and I am having problem with sim activation please tell me what to do

    I have a iPhone 4S and I am having problem with its.activation plz tell me. The solution of this problem?

    Did you already try these steps?
    Restart the iPhone.
    Try another means of reaching the activation server and attempt to activate.
    Try connecting to a known-good Wi-Fi network if you're unable to activate using a cellular data connection.
    Try connecting to iTunes if you're unable to activate using Wi-Fi.
    Restore the iPhone.
    If you receive an alert message when you attempt to activate your iPhone, try to place the iPhone in recovery mode and perform a restore. If you're still unable to complete the setup assistant due to an activation error, contact Apple for assistance.

    What do you mean "Leave them my laptop again"? do you mean you have had it worked on before? for the same problem or a different one?
    You need to take it in to Apple ASAP. No matter how long they have it, you want it fixed and fixed correctly.

    Hello aalapdesai112,
    Lets see if we can get you back to taking calls normally again. Start your troubleshooting with the article below and go through checking to making sure that you are up to date with your iOS as well as a simple restart on your iPhone.

  • I have been a customer with Verizon, since 1996. Recently, my husband has been added onto my account. We have both been experience drop calls. My husband contact Tech support for over 2 weeks. We were pretty upset to be paying a lot of money for a service

    I have been a customer with Verizon, since 1996. Recently, my husband has been added onto my account. We have both been experience drop calls. My husband contact Tech support for over 2 weeks. We were pretty upset to be paying a lot of money for a service that didn't work. Verizon advised us that would upgrade both of our phones (to see if that solved the problem). Ok...this is where Verizon has forgotten customer service rules. He order 2 phone...one for himself, one for me. 1st the wrong address on the package..Fedex couldn't deliver...2nd...missing condo number Fedex couldn't deliver again...(2nd call to Verizon)...3rd package was finally deliver with 1 phone...missing my phone. Contacted verizon rep...reorder my phone again..but sorry we cannot give the same price as quoted on 21April...even though...its our mistake...Ok...Ok..what a surprise..but we can do this...after 65 minutes...found a price that was a little bit more...fine...just order the phone....I reordered phone on 28April...on the April 29...no email..so I can Verizon for the 4times in a few days..sorry your order was delay due to our Fraud dept. OK...talked to fraud dept...ok..account is good..will release phone and ship. OK...Next day, no email with deliver confimation. Contact Verizon 5 times now...sorry..your order was cancelled...YES...cancelled again...2nd time now...but we can reorder...OK...sorry but we cannot honor that price that was quoted..really...agent messed up...again...but we can do this for you....I don't understand...your mistake...ALL the times...
    Strange ...how my order gets cancelled twice by Verizon's mistake....yet you cannot honor prices that your agents quoted!!!
    I didn't reorder the phone....I cannot in good faith same with a company that does not stand behind their own mistakes...and worse...they make the poor customer pay for it...
    I will not be renewing my contact...its time to Cricket Wirless...which my sister-in-law loves for half the cost....

    I hope that you aren't complaining about dropped calls INSIDE your condo because no amount of switching or upgrading devices will solve that.
    VZW will not guarantee service inside of any structure. There are just too many factors. If the problem is inside then you might want to look at one of the following:
    1.) Network Extender (may cause issues for others in a condo or apartment style setting)
    2.) A Google Voice Number (Free with a Gmail email address), downloading Google Hangouts Dialer and forwarding your calls to the GVN so that you can make and receive calls over Wi-Fi.

  • I am having trouble with the ipad2 freezing up causing me to restart the tablet.  How can I fix this?

    I am having trouble with the ipad2 freezing up causing me to restart the tablet.  How can I fix this?

    Doubt it is a Hardware issue...
    If the Reset and the Restart have not Resolved the Issue...
    Then the Next Step is a Restore...
    Restore...
    1: Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.
    3: If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try using the steps in this article to force the device into recovery mode.

  • I'm having problems with my internet connection after installing OS X Lion. Is this a known problem or just a local problem?

    I'm having problems with my internet connection after installing OS X Lion. Is this a known problem or just a local problem?
    After +/- 10 to 15min my connection is gone.
    Does anyone have a sollution?

    Lots of people are having the same problem, you're not the only one, belieeeeve me.
    Just Googling the problem gets you tons of people complaining about the same thing, SOMETHING is up with Lion what wasn't happening with Snow Leopard. i just bought a new Imac and it CAME with Lion, so i started experiencing this internet dropout immediately.
    It's been going on for the most of a year it looks like (at least by the dates from the threads i've been reading)
    So your best bet is to fiddle with the System Preferences and read what other people have used to make theirs work. i'm doing that myself right now.  I already posted  a similar thread last night trying to figure out why my connection kept on dropping, i got a reply which linked me to a site. i followed the instructions there, so far so good, but i'm just being cautiously optimistic.
    i'm gonna call Apple today and see if they've found anything, though seeing as this is a problem right out of the box there may not be an immediate solution. Good luck hunting for a solution :3

  • Hello, i am having problems with itunes store. it wont connect almost as if its hanging, any ideas how to fix this problem

    BOB we need you urgently
    Perhaps Bob will see this thread, he is the professor in these cases.
    You do not use a WEP password but wpa/wpa2 on router and equipment.
    All equipment connects to WiFi, but for your iPad.
    Even with all other equipment WiFi off, you cannot connect your iPad.
    Your iPad connects to other WiFi nets correctly.
    All resets etc done on iPad and Router.
    Still I am not sure it is your router for sure, frustrating...
    I want to test 2 other things:
    1. in your iPad, set everything OFF in Settings/Cellular, turn off/then/on your WiFi, and see whether it will still not connect...
    2. If that does not do it: disconnect the router as well as the modem from the power, for 15 seconds, then reconnect the modem, let it fully start, then reconnect the routet let it fully start, turn of your WiFi in iPad, then on, and see whether it will connect.
