Hi,my iphone it wont slide to unlock

my iphone it doesnt slide to unlock

@kbroadbent82
Even i had a same issue on my iphone 3gs. Its a boot memory issue and can be resolved in two ways
1. You need to remove the battery and keep it for 20mins(Which is lil complicated if u donot know how to remove) then place it back so that it refreshes the memory and starts fresh boot.
OR
2. Dry out the battery completely ensure it dies without battery , keep it saftely without charging for a week(7days mandatory) and after a week start charging . This procedure ensure that once the battery is completely dried it will refresh the boot memory and starts with fresh boot . This process is same as the above
As i donot recommend removing the battery as the procedure is complicated and factory fit is not obtained, you may also end up with loose screws hence i would recommend going with 2nd step , let me know if you have any questions.

My iphone 5 wont slide to unlock, but hard resetting (Holding power button and Home button) doesn't fix it.

I tried to unlock my iphone by sliding the bar, but nothing happens, the phone is not frozen because the backround still moves, but i cant unlock it or answer calls. i tried the hard reset but it didnt work either. any help apreciated.
Thanks.

Try connecting the iPhone to iTunes and don't even try to slide to unlock ...just let it bring iTunes App up and then do a Sync.

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).
Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

My ipod screen wont slide to unlock and i have just reset it to factory settings, help!

my ipod screen wont slide to unlock and i have just reset it to factory settings, help!

Seems like a hardware problem. An appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Bottom row of the keyboard is not working in a vertical orientation on the iPhone 3Gs. the "slide to unlock" and all keys on the calculator on both orientation works fine. I can use the keyboard on horizontal orientation.

Bottom row of the keyboard is not working in a vertical orientation on the iPhone 3Gs. the "slide to unlock" and all keys on the calculator on both orientation works fine. I can use the keyboard on horizontal orientation. The tabs on bottom of all apps also work fine.
I have already tried holding down the power button and home button for 10 seconds, but no difference.

I've had this problem on and off for the last few weeks (around, but not directly related, to upgrade to 6.1...can't remember if was before or after)....I'm very convinced it's a software problem (as there have been times when the bottom row works perfectly, without any need to "press" differently or anything).
However, it seems to be a rather resilient software issue, as a full restore does not consistently fix it, and it applies to more than just the keyboard; if I open a drawing app, there's definitely a row (about 4mm up from the edge of the screen closest to home button) where I cannot draw.
It's happened 4 times now. Originally it went away with a restore from backup, then worked for 2 more days. The second and third times, it went away with a full restore (although I did two full restores in between those two restores that did nothing, so restore didn't consistently fix it)....and it seemed to return in the most random of circumstances.
I paid very close attention to what apps I was using the last time it was working so that I could spot which app, if any, might be causing the issue. I deleted several apps, I stopped using the games and many other apps. I only used three apps between it working fine and starting up as a problem again: mail, safari and messages.
I was convinced it was mail, as it happened this morning when I picked up my phone off the bedside table to respond to a new email. It was working when I went to bed. I picked up the phone when it buzzed, hit the email app, hit reply and started to type....**** bottom row wasn't working again.
However, tonight I did 2 things....one of them worked because it went back to normal (sorry, I don't know which as I was exasperated and trying a number of things).
The two things I did between a broken keyboard and a working keyboard were:
1) adding a second keyboard (English(Canada)), changing to this keyboard, and changing back
2) disabling Siri...and then turning it back on...and then disabling Siri's "Raise to Speak"
In retrospect, I wonder if it actually was the "Raise to Speak" that was putting the phone into a weird state, and might explain why the phone would just "suddenly" start behaving strangely when I picked it up. Of note, the "raise to speak" hasn't actually triggered Siri to come on in months anyway.
Regardless, the keyboard is back to normal now...and I'm just going to leave "Raise to Speak" off. I've put the keyboard back to just "English" with no alternates and Siri remains on otherwise without issue.

My ipod 4g wont slide to unlock, but it will slide to power off

Helpppp ! My ipod touch 4g wont slide to unlock, but it will slide to power off & the screen is craked does this mean its broken or ?

Apple doesn't repair it. If there is no sign of abuse, they replace it with a refurbished unit. The fixed-price for non-warranty replacements can be found here.

TS2634 my iphone 4s wont slide from one screen to the next and I have to double tap on an icon to make it work. How do I fix this??

My iphone 4s wont slide from one screen to the next and I have to double tap on each icon to open it. I can hear siri talking and telling me what each icon or button I press is. How do I fix this problem? I have restored my phone to last saved but the problem still remains.

My problem was fixed via your suggestion. Thanks. Then I heard, though it hasn't been substantiated by anyone I know, that pushing the the round "start" button after the unit is on three rapid times will solve the problem. Do you know if this is valid info?

HT201412 why iphone 4s cannot slide to unlock?

why iphone 4s cannot slide to unlock?

Told by Apple store that it is an LCD problem and has to be repaired. Without warranty, it will cost approx. $150. I think they will give you a new one if your is under warranty... not sure.

IPhone 3gs frozen - slide to unlock frozen - phone dropped - pad lock without circle

Dropped iPhone 3gs (ios 3.4.4 or previous version - can't remember which one). Slide to unlock is frozen. If I press home button twice then reverse, play and fast forward symbols show up on center of screen (but nothing happens when I press on them). There is a plain pad lock symbol (no circle) on the top center of the screen. Won't do anyting else. Any ideas? Also, the phone will ring...I just can't unlock the phone to answer. Then the screen shows that I missed a call with the phone number displayed.

ok no problem looking like you would have to restore the device.
as long as you have a back up you would be fine.

IPhone freezes after slide to unlock

After update to 5.0.1 my iphone is now unable to be locked as when i slide to unlock it freezes (iphone 3gs)

As lots of users I am having the problem that my iPhone takes many seconds to unlock once I "slide to unlock" it could sometimes take 5 to 10 seconds before my telephone reacts.
This is really anoying, because I can't even pick up a phonecall when this happens, I have to wait untill my phone stops ringing, and then I suddenly can unlock the phone and I have to call that person back (this cant be the meaning of a phone)
I recently noticed that this must have to do with wifi. I disabled wifi for almost 2 weeks, and I never noticed the problem again. The moment I put wifi back on, the same problem starts again. the screen stays black when I want to get it out of sleep, and after a while it gets back to life.
The part that makes me angry is that I have this problem for a long time. and always everyone said to me it was because of the 'coma mode' so I supposed it to be a software problem and the update would fix it. Now last month my warranty and support expired, and I have updated my phone to the new 3.1.2 (which I tought would solve the problem) but now it seems not to be a software problem, and my phone is just not capable to run wifi and reacty normal at the same time! If I had known this earlyer I would have give it back to Apple, to get a new one, one that works while I still had warranty (last month). But since that coma mode problem I let my warranty expire and thought the new update would fix my problems.
So this leaves me with a phone advertised to have wifi, but actually is not able to use wifi. (at least not if you want to make sure you can answer your calls whenever they come in)
I know I won't get any feedback from Apple (I have to pay to get feedback of course) but I just wanted to say this.
Maybe this could help people with the same problem.

IPhone will not slide to unlock.

All of the buttons and the slide to turn off works, but I cannot slide to unlock. I have restored, restarted, and upgraded all software. Any ideas? It is frustrating when the phone rings and I cannot answer it.

My ipod wont slide to unlock

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
