Help!  My iPhone "crapped"out!!

This morning when I went to use my iPhone, I noticed that the familiar "clicking" noise was no there when I unlocked it, no clicks on the keyboard when I went to send a message, no noise when I dialed a number, not able to hear the caller on the phone, I can on speakerphone and bluetooth. No sound on itunes even with the speaker volume all the way up. I have never dropped my phone, got it wet, kept it in extreme temps, hacked it, loaded any third party stuff on it (not smart enough for that). It worked fine before I went to bed. I just placed it in its dock to charge like I have done sine July 1.
I have reset and retored it, but no luck. My iPhone is my lifeline as I use it non stop for work (long commute, main contact number for me). I can't be without it, esp with the weekend coming up. HELP!!!!!

I just had exactly the same thing happen to my iPhone, and -- by the way -- the same fix worked. Last night I finished a normal call in the normal way (touching 'end call') and fifteen minutes later the sound was gone. I had not used the headphones since the morning.
Like midwest917 I have been very good with my iPhone (no drops, no soaks, no hacks, etc.). At the moment I am sitting outside an Apple Store that I drove an hour and a half to get to so that I could get their take on the problem. (I looked on this forum late last night and missed this post, most unfortunately.)
What is the source of this problem?

  • Help getting iphone 4s out of recovery mode as i keep getting error 1611 or error 21.

    can anyone help (with ways to fix this issue other than the 1's ive already tred) I was charging my phone and when i went to get off off charge it was dead and only displayed the itunes connect image. I have tried to restore it and when i connect it to itunes it displays this message 'itunes has detected an iphone in recovery mode. you must restore ths iphone before it can be used with itunes' so i tried to restore it may times now but get so far and then have an error message. Ive had error 1611, error 21 error 1611 again and error 21 a further 4 times. I have also been to the apple store and made an appointment with the so called geniuis people however after 4 and a half hours waiting to be seen did they take my phone out the back then over 15 mins later the chap dealing with me came back saying ' WHEN DID YOU HAVE A NEW SCREEN FITTED' I replied 2/3 months ago as i dropped it on my table and the screen cracked so i took it to a phone repair shop and paid £105 to have it replaced and my phone was working fine after I wasnt aware that the warranty covered you for a cracked screen that you was caused because you dropped it accedentaly etc.... well any way tghe chap then said ' I can t help you any further as you need to go back to the shop who changed the screen and get them to resolve this isssue. I asked how on earth can a new sceen fitted cause my phone to go in to recovry mode (2/3 months after the screen was replaced mind) the reply i got was ' Its not my issue its out of my hands........' I was more than tamping, raging fuming leaving there as no advice was given to rectifiy the issue i have with my phone. The following morning i went straight to the shop that replaired/replaced my cracked screen and told them what apple had said to me and that i was to come back to yourselves as you need to rectify the issue? to say the repair guy was baffled is an understatement but in fairness at least he tried to help me and attempted to restore it on itunes 6 times in total and changed the battery to a brnd new 1 plus checked the charging port to make sure this was not faulty. after all his help he was still baffled as to why apple felt its his fault after replacing a cracked screen as the error codes being displayed clearly were a software issue not an issue caused by replacing the crakced sceen'
    I was more than happy to pay apple and charges to fix my phone based on the fact my warranty was now null and void (which is pathetic as the replacement screen was an apple origianl replacement screen it was just fitted by someone else whom is qualifed to do so) but wasnt even given the option to pay for any repairs etc.....they simply blamed someone else and offer me no further help.
    so a week later after this first hapen to my phone whilst on charge and i still in the same boat and have run out of things to try (which was all found by using google as apple support secton is a load of fresh air and doenst actually give you the info and help your need.
    Im grateful of any help that can be offered.

    You must be a Windows sufferer.

    Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

  • I have updated my phone to 4.3.3 and I was told there would be more bells and whistles. I haven't found more texting sounds. Have I updated my phone wrong or just not completed it all the way? Please help me. Still trying to figure this iphone 3G out.

    You have the iPhone 3GS, not the 3G. The last update to support the iPhone 3G is 4.2.1.
    iOS 4.3.3 includes bug fixes etc. There is nothing really special about this update that wasn't introduced in iOS 4.3. iOS 5 is the one to wait for - it will be released in the Autumn/Fall and includes over '200' new features/improvements.
    The additional text tines and ringtones were an iPhone 4-only feature.

  • I have lost my iphone 5. The person who has my phone right now is still using my game center id to play one of my game that i have in that phone named "Clash of Clan". Could you guys help me to sign out this icloud's ID and game center's ID from that fone

    i have lost my iphone 5. The person who has my phone right now is still using my game center id to play one of my game that i have in that phone named "Clash of Clan". Could you guys help me to sign out this icloud's ID and game center's ID from that phone for me, or anyone knows how to do this, please mail back to me. Id : "[email protected]" Thanks.

    As far as I know you can't delete the primary email address for an iCloud account.  It's assigned when the account is created.  But your neighbor wouldn't have been able to get into your iCloud account without your Apple ID and password.  Are you sure the account wasn't still on your phone when you gave it to him?
    You could migrate a copy of your data to a new iCloud account but I would still be concerned that someone else was using my old account, which presumably still has your data in it.
    I'm fairly certain that you're going to have to have iCloud support help you sort this one out as they may have the ability to make changes to an existing account that users can't.  Make an appointment with the genius bar at a nearby Apple store and have them take a look at it.  If necessary, they should be able to contact iCloud support for you.

That worked for me I call it  mannual opening. I did not get any help so I figured out the hard  way.Let me know but I am for sure
    yeee haa

  • I am asking this for my friend, who was using iphone 4. He lost it one week back and couldnt find it so far. He is having his IMEA number of the phone. Could you please help me in tracing out this?

    I am asking this for my friend, who was using iphone 4. He lost it one week back and couldnt find it so far. He is having his IMEA number of the phone. Could you please help me in tracing out this?

    If he has not previously set up Find My iPhone, there is no way to
    track the iPhone. Apple does not and will not track phones.
    Immediately change all passwords. Hopefully he was using a passcode
    to get by the lock screen. If he was, his data is protected; if not, anyone
    who finds the iPhone can access anything that was on it.

    hi i need sum help plzzz, iphone 3gs blackscreen and tryed evrything but wont kick out of dfu mode , much apreicated plz, it just happen wen i was restoring  the screen is balck but wen i restore it from itunes it says erorr 1600 and itunes does not reconise the phone , i have tryed eveything bt still no luck , I NEED UR HELP PLZZZ ,its my disabled daughters thank you

    Anyone on this forum can correct me if I am wrong. I am not judging you, but to my knowledge the iTunes error 1600  usually affects products that are  jailbroken. again I am not saying that your iPhone 3GS was jailbroken. my only advise off the top of my head to assist you is to download the recent IOS firmware online. I know it is not the the #1 advised option, but it is the only option you have unless you wish to bring it to the Apple Genius bar and see if they can replace the phone or fix it themselves.

  • Anyone having Bluetooth syncing issues w VW Tiquan11... and iPhone4? Essentially the pairing craps out every other time when you connect to the cars bluetooth. Requires rebooting iPhone, power off/on and then connects..

    Anyone having Bluetooth syncing issues w VW Tiquan11... and iPhone4? Essentially the pairing craps out every other time when you connect to the cars bluetooth. Requires rebooting iPhone, power off/on and then connects..

    Many people are finding their Iphone 4S drops connection with their VW (Passat etc) integrated bluetooth hands free system after working fine for 5, 10, 20 minutes. The only way to reconnect is to switch the car off or turn the Iphone bluetooth off & back on.
    This is a dangerous fault and it appears that both Apple & VW have no solution (or are ignoring as they have already sold you a phone & a car).
    iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1.1, VW bluetooth

  • TS3694 its showing error 2003 when i restore my iphone 3g.pls help me to get out of this problem

    Its showing error 2003 when i m restoring my iphone3g.pls help me to get out of this problem.as soon as possible

    Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
    If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software. If the errors persist on another computer and known-good USB cable, the device may need service.
    The "device may need service" means a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Can I track Iphone w/out tracking app?

    I bought my daughter an Iphone 2 days ago and a so called friend stole it. Can I track it without a tracking App? She didn't download one or sign up for Icloud, I forgot and didn't think someone would do this to her. I am desperate to get this phone back. We upgraded and got it free so I don't see paying a $99 deductible. VERY DISCOURAGED AND SICK!!! PLEASE HELP ME FIND THIS PHONE. I already have print out of everyone HE has called and he used the crap out of her Internet. Left it on until I found out about the Internet usage and had to temporarily suspend it.
    WHAT SHOULD I DO?

    without suspending service you could have located it with plan b.
    plan b, if phone's on you'll see where.
