How do I get out of "Emergency Call" only screen?

How do I disable "Emergency Call Only" screen?

    eaglemai,
Thanks for the info! Are you able to unlock the device at all to access the settings menu? Do you have the Family Base feature active on your account? Do you recall how the device entered the Emergency call only mode?

    How can I get out of the flashing Apple screen on Iphone 3 ?

    Turn it off.  While pressing and holding the Home button, connect it to your computer with iTunes open.  Hopefully you will be able to restore it after that.  If not, it requires service.

  • IPhone 3G stuck on emergency calls only screen. HELP!

    Hi everyone, I really need some help.
    I bought my jailbroken iPhone 3G from Hong Kong on eBay a few months back. Everything was working fine on iOS 4.2.1, except the battery life was very poor. After getting the battery replaced there was no improvement. So my boyfriend suggested I try restoring the phone with iTunes as it was supposed to improve the battery life.
    I plugged my phone in and went through the restore process, only to receive "iTunes Error 1015". After this my iPhone went into recovery mode and stayed put. I tried using a YouTube tutorial and TinyUmbrella to help me out of the error, but it only made my phone go to the "Emergency calls only" screen and now the phone will not appear in iTunes as it says the SIM card that has worked perfectly with iTunes every other time is not supported. I am at a total loss as for what I am meant to do. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
    Please help.

    I found your problem.
    All sorts of things can go wrong with jailbroken phones, it's never a good idea to do so. Not to mention, it means you won't be getting much help on here.

  • Tried to restore iphone 4 back to factory settings now on emergency call only screen?

    tried to restore iphone 4 back to factory settings now on emergency call only screen? it also says hook phone up with itunes. well i have an old mac and my itunes isnt up to date and cant be installed up to date because of the old software. what do i do?

    You'll need to update your system or fine a system you can use to activate it. There's no way around it.
    If you can get to an Apple store and explain the situation to them, they 'may' be able to hook you up with an OS upgrade to Leopard assuming you have a G4 or G5 mac that can handle it.

    second it sounds like your iphone could be locked to another operator then the sim you have inserted

  • How do I get past the Emergency call screen iphone 5 ios 6

    I upgraded my iphone 5 to ios 6.1 and now I can't get past the Emergency call screen.
    I try to hook it into my computer with iTunes but it says I need to unlock the phone with my password but I can't find anywhere to do that.
    I tried the reset but that didn't help.

    There should be a Black Button with a White Arrow pointing left at the Bottom of the screen.

  • IPhone, emergency calls only screen

    Hello Developers!
    I have a problem with my iPhone and iOS 4... So I downloaded iOS 4 GM and installed it, every thing OK... But after installing, the only thing I can do was emergency calling... iOS 4 was installed (because of some small UI changes notifiable) So the PC says like: Networkconnection failed due to overtiming or so...(sorry for my bad English, the message was german) please try again later. With my PC everything was in order, so I have no idea what to do. I even tried it on a Mac near me, but the same thing all time.
    Hope someone can help me!

    Have you tried rebooting the phone? Hold HOME and SLEEP until an Apple logo appears (8-10 seconds).
    Remove and clean the SIM card?
    If neither helps you probably need a new SIM. Any AT&T store will give you one.

  • Help. I am stuck on the "Emergency calls only" screen

    I reset the iphone because I bought it from a friend. Now, all I can do is make emergency calls. It shows a picture of the itunes icon with a usb cable. I tried putting in my SIM card and it wont let me do anything but turn it on and off. What do I do?
    Thanks

    From what I've seen, this results when 3.0 is downloaded and partially installed but not "activated." It that is your situation, I would recommend disconnecting from your ISP while the 3.0 installation files are being extracted.

    Do you mean you cannot get past the Passcode Lock on your device?  If so, then that's a different issue.  Use this article: iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled - Apple Support

  • How do I get out of iOS Mail Setup?

    Hi All
    I got a new iPad Mini for  Christmas.  I got it set up and working easily and fairly quickly.
    I copied my Mail settings from my MacPro (OSX 10.8) using the "Sync selected Mail accounts" check box in iTunes. I've been reading mail on my iPad for about a month.
    Yesterday I traveled several hours to stay with a friend for a while. I got the iPad on my friends WiFi without a problem and I can surf the web, map stuff and everything appears to be working fine... till I check email.
    When I open Mail, I'm presented with the "Welcome to Mail" setup screen - like mail thinks it's not configured.
    I go into Settings/Mail, Contacts and Calendars, and all my email  acccounts are there, just like they should be.
    The iPad is playing the New Message alert chime as it fetches mail in the background.
    When I open Mail all I get is the Welcome to Mail screen!
    I tried putting in dummy info to get past the setup, but that fails and I end up back at the Welcome to Mail screen.
    How do I get out of the stinking setup screen and back to my emails?

    Thank you all for taking the time to read this. I believe I've solved the problem.
    What I did:
    I have several email accounts (ISP, Gmail, etc). I have them set to forward to one 'primary' account and I have that set to Active and the rest set to Inactive.
    I went into Settings/Mail, Comtacts and Calendars and activated one of the inactive accounts, and de-activated the account I normally use. This change apparently convinced Mail that it was indeed configured and it got out of the setup screen and back to may emails.
    I then went back to Settings/Mail, Contacts and Calanders and returned the accounts to their original configurations. Things are now back to 'normal'.
    This is clearly a programming issue. Apps should not need to be 'kicked' like that to function.

  • "emergency calls only" - but only sometimes!

    Hi everyone,
    I bought the new iphone 4, and it worked just fine. The guy at the store (mobile phones store) inserted microsim, activated the device and everything was fine untill it was turned off by me. Then, when i would power it on, it would present the "emergency calls only" screen, but not allways! if you w8 for some time, try again, you can power it on normally, and again, if you power it down, and try again, guess what: "emergency calls only".
    The craziest thing is that it gets the carrier signal once i turn it on successfully, but losses it after a few moments saying "no service".
    Any idea on what could be the problem here?
    i tried restoring with itunes, but except for losing all the data, it didn't really help....
    do you think this is a sim card issue, or some hardware issue with the iphone?
    ty for any replies!

    y, i forgot to say, that the "emergency calls only" screen, was also "connect to itunes" screen... sry

  • Update software, up all night, emergency calls only, or restore.

    Everytime I update the software I'm up all night trying to get my phone to work again. As soon as the software is loaded I get the emergency calls only screen on my phone. It takes hours of playing around, restarting, rebooting, Norton goback, you name it to get my phone to restore which takes hours. Why does a simple "upgrade" set me back so far. I have to plan it for weekends when I can stay up all night.
    Help. Apple do something!!!!

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    While very thorough, the one thing I don't think I see in your list is unlocking your BB from it's original carrier (a prerequisite for using it on a different carrier). See this FAQ.

  • Restored, now emergency calls only

    So, I was having software issues with my phone. I figured the best bet would be to restore the phone. Since I wasn't sure what the issue was I decided to restore as a new phone and reload everything manually. After restoring, now I can only make emergency calls. I thought that I might have to re-register my phone since it was seeing it as a new phone, but it's not giving me the option to register it. Any help would be appreciated.

    I am haveing the same problem, I did a reset all setting under setting on the Iphone then when it rebooted it was on the emergency calls only screen. I then tried to restore the phone and after it goes through the process it reboots back to th emergence calls only screen?
    Someone plz help us

    I also had this problem recently and did search on Google and found this very nice guide to handle a no service or emergency calls only issue. Hope this will help you too or other people who will have the same problem. Here is the link for that.
