My wifes LG G2 phone has been going crazy for quite some time now... Acts like some else has control of it. I've read in other forums that this is quite an issue with lots of other people and its a software issue but can't seem to find a fix for it. Any ideas?
You can do 1 of 3 things, or all. 1: use verizon's cloud to back up whats on the phone, like contacts, pictures and music etc...just know you only have 5GB of cloud space with VZW. 2: Use Google. Since you have a google OS and I'm sure her email is connected to the phone, all contacts will be backup up that way and you can use Google Drive since you have 15GB with Google to back up media and such. The app settings are set to Google backup already. 3: You can attach the phone to the computer and set to Media Sync/Device and back up everything media-wise to the PC. I suggest doing this method though: Use Verizon or Google to back up the contacts and the PC for media. Its just faster and easier PLUS...when you RESET do the following: Settings-- Backup and Restore--UNCHECK automatic restore. This will keep your saved app settings from reloading and might help with any problem app that was on the phone. After reboot you'll have a just-like out-of-the-box phone. It'll take time for verizon or google to sync up and you'll need to disable whatever apps you had disabled previously as well as reset-up your preferences, but its the easiest thing to do rather than wait til Mon-tues for a replacement. If this doesnt work, you'll definitely need to exchange. And, since VZW is going to require you to reset the phone anyway you'll be ahead of the game. IT IS POSSIBLE for you to call them on your phone and let them remotely diagnose your wife's phone, but I'm sure you'd need to reset before doing that out of privacy.

IPad is crazy, like someone's touching it.
iPad is going crazy, like someone's touching the screen. It's been restored. Is there anything else to try?
You should probably try turning off your device and turning it back on.
It should work for a little while but, it should. -
i had to get a new iphone and want to know how to tell if my pictures from my previous phone were backed up on itunes. when i connect to itunes, does it automatically sync / backup even if i'm going from a 4 w/IOS 6 to a 5S w/IOS 7?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Yes you can probably delete the 2 incomplete back ups they are unlikely to work.
However, I'd be inclined to back up to a computer as well and restore from there, if you are changing your phone. -
If i set up my photos to be saved in icloud and then i backup on my pc, will them appear on a new iphone i'm going to buy ?
You didn't get very good advice. Rather than backing up, I would have imported the photos to a computer as described in iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
If you backed up to a computer using iTunes, the backups are stored in a format that is designed only for restoring to another iOS device. You should however be able to extract the photos using 3rd party software such as http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/ibackupextractor/
If the pictures were included in Photo Stream and if they are still there, you could retrieve them using information in iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ -

I have an iPhone 3GS that I dropped in water for a moment. After drying it and everything, it still does everything but get service. Can I back it up and transfer its data to a new iPhone 3GS? I heard something about how loading a backup from a water damaged phone could mess up the new one... is this true? I would truly appreciate the help, please let me know, thanks!
Sounds like your phone is in recovery mode. In this case, all data on it is gone. There's nothing to back up.

Why can't I download the free Apple apps for my new iPhone 5S? It was set up in store and restored from my iPod Touch 5.
Are you logged in with the same account that was used to activate the phone ? If you are, and the apps aren't showing as free, then try logging out of your account by tapping on it at the botto of the Featured tab in the App Store app and then log back in and see if they then show as free.
