HT4061 My iPhone 5 is locked on home screen and has a blue ring that circles the time, then moves to the camera. Then swipe etc. how do I unlock the phone?
I have some kind f software loop going on that has locked me out of my iPhone 5. Help!
This blue ring moves every time I touch the screen. Siri is working but can't help/ find what to turn off. I have used Siri to make calls and send emails but can't use the touch screen

IPhone 5 stuck on home screen and there are codes at the top??
So I plugged the phone in and it started charging like it should. When it had enough juice the Apple logo flashed and it should'be pushed me to the main screen of my iPhone. Instead it stayed on the start up screen with the apple logo and there are codes at the top of the screen that start with [nand]. There are about 10 rows of it. What should I do?
This error is hardware related and you should get the phone serviced by visiting an Apple Store or an Authorized Apple Service Provider.

My lock and home screen button has just suddenly stopped working, i have looked on YouTube, unscrewed the back and tried the methods that work for other people but it hasn't worked.
Im not on contract, if it needs to go in for repair im sure it will be very expensive!
What shall i do?It's a hardware issue. If it's out of warranty, you can get it replaced but there's an out of warranty fee associated.

How do i change wallpaper - home screen and lock screen and view only the icons?
Ever since I uploaded iOS 7 I have somehow changed the wallpaper from the locked screen and home page. Currently it is set on both (lock and home screen) How do I change it back to be able to view the icons on my iPhone? Secondly I don't when I have IM either.
Setting wallpaper is done by going to Settings>Wallpapers and Brightness. I'm not sure exactly what you are asking about being able to view the icons. Is it possible you have more than 1 home screen and you are looking at an empty one. Try pressing the home button, what happens? Lastly, I don't know what your statement "I don't when I have IM either", is referring to, or what it means.

Can anybody help with the above?
i.e
both my iphone 4s and ipad switch in between the home screen and the apple loading screen
Many thanksI would connect each device to a power source, and then reset them by holding the power button and the home button until they turn off.
If it keeps happening, I would put the devices in recovery mode and restore them with iTunes.
This article will help with that if needed:

My iPhone says that I don't have enough storage to update one of my apps so I went to delete stuff that I didn't need but every time I select what I want to delete my phone freezes, goes back to the home screen and doesn't delete anything.
First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

We have iPhone 4 and I plugged phone into after market hardwired plug in car (that we have used successfully for two years). The screen has gone black and wont turn on. Phone was charged. I have tried force quit- home screen and top button. iTunes is not recognizing phone when I plug into computer. help pls
FIRST charge with an Apple charger for at least 15 minutes. Then hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears. Hold for up to 30 seconds. If nothing happens the phone hardware has failed.

How do I unlock the screen rotation on the iPhone 5c
How do I unlock the screen rotation on the iPhone 5c?
Hi patty,
Slide up from the bottom of the Home screen to display the Control Panel. On the far right is the screen rotation lock icon. Click on that. It will display that the touch either locked or unlocked it.
Cheers,
