HT6154 Having SERIOUS problems with iOS 7.1 on my iPhone 4S!!!!

I am having SERIOUS problems here. Let me give you a rundown:
I have to reboot my phone (or turn it off and on again) to see the correct battery percentage (but I'll address that in a second), and once I reboot it or bring it back up again, it has to restart itself (in the middle of use) about 3 or 4 times before it stays on consistantly; all the while reading the percentage of battery it remembers from the last reboot. Now, about the battery percentage: I restarted it before I charged it last night and it read 16% -mind you, after it had to shut itself down and restart 3 times. I put it on the charger all night, and it still read 16%...but I decided to run a battery cycle (charge it all the way up, and drain it all the way down) to see if that would help. Sad to say, it did not help; infact it made things worse. It now flip-flops in between the Apple boot-up symbol and a black screen when plugged up to a charger or a computer. The computer cannot read the phone being plugged in so I cannot do a manual restore from iTunes.
Best yet, I upgraded to 7.1, and had the SAME EXACT PROBLEMS I AM HAVING NOW. I did a complete restore of my phone, and even set it up as a brand new iPhone, not even a restore from the last iCloud backup, and just loaded all my content from my Mac...and the problems decided to follow -even after the fresh restore.
I'm toying with the idea that it may be a hardware problem, but I would love to know if anyone is experiencing the same issue.
I have no idea what to do... please help.
I use my phone for business constantly, and almost cannot do my job without it.

ok well seeing that your are having major issues with the battery and the loading screen it is a hardware issue. reseting it wont help that at all. what you need to do is take it to apple and let them look at it. They can tell you what is wrong with it and how much it would be to fix it ( if it is possible your situation is really bad) but if its not they might give you a discount if you give the iphone to them.

  • IPad mini with retina still having wifi problems with iOS 8.0.2 - slow or none. Resetting temporarily fixes problem it very annoying. Please fix Apple! Not up to scratch.

    iPad mini with retina still having wifi problems with iOS 8.0.2 - slow or none. Resetting temporarily fixes problem it very annoying. Please fix Apple! Not up to scratch.

    I Have followed these steps, and tried others, such as resetting all my network settings. At best these only temporarily fix the problem - wifi still becomes slow or stops. I have other Apple devices connecting fine to my airport express. why is my iPad mini not working? Is it related to the fact it is 3G and I don't have a sim card installed? It is the current top of the range model with iOS 8.0.2. I paid over the odds for the best, and it is almost completely redundant.  Apple - I'm losing faith. You need to keep the public better informed and fix this problem fast, otherwise I will leave you for good.

  • Having serious problems with DPS

    So I posted earlier and had few reponses, but the problem has now escalated into something even more frustrating and problematic.
    Before, I was having issues where updated articles would not show us updated in the slide out and drop down contents. This is still a problem. I have done everything to try and correct this from deleting and reuploading the article, to archive/redownload, and the only thing that has worked is starting a new folio which I think is rediculous. I have a 300mb file with over 40 articles, to have to make another folio would be absurd....anyone know how to fix this?
    NOW however, I'm having further problems with formatting and effects. For example, when I preview my folio on the iPad, I have two articles which have outer glows, even though they are not present in the actual document. I have deleted and reuped the document and article and.same as above and nothing. Even after archiving and redownloading the folio (300 mb folio which again is becoming rediculous) the portrait version got rid of the outer glow, but the landscape version still has an outer glow.
    Anyone know why this would be happening and how to fix it? I haven't had a problem until yesterday. I have done everything including reset my iPad and it has not helped.

    Have you verified that you've updated the article in Folio Builder Panel? Make sure to save the portrait and landscape versions of your InDesign document and then select the article in FBP and say update. Also, check and make sure you aren't accidentally looking at a folio that's been fully published (no blue stripe in the library). If you're looking at a published folio you also have to remember to go to Folio Producer and click update so the updates are pushed to the production servers.

  • Serious problem with IOS 6

    Hello
    IOS6 has a serious security problem with locked iphone SIRI code to make calls without first obtaining number lock, if your phone is stolen, call anyone could want. It is a serious problem that should resolve quickly. With any other application that tell you open SIRI, Siri will ask you to put code to call but do not ask.
    I hope to be helpful. regards

    You cant downgrade sorry. However next I would recommend whats called a DFU restore. You can search the that term and find instructions to perform it. It basically restores the firmware and  IOS. Its like a factory fresh reset. Also some peolpe with crazy issues have been able to go to Apple store and have them restore their devices to resolve issues (Perhaps they have some low level way to restore that is not available OR they are doing the DFU)
    Anyway I would get a backup and then try that to see if it will resolve your issue.

  • Having serious problems with apps on iphone 5 ios7 (have read other posts)

    Hello,
    My daughter has an iphone 5 with ios 7.02. Ever since she updated to ios7 she has not been able to update her apps. When she tries they grey out and are stuck on waiting. We have tried everything and I think I have read every post on the subject. I decided to work on it again today and I have deleted as many of the apps as I can, there are still some that are completely grey that don't show in any list and won't delete off the phone.
    I cannot update to ios 7.03 because it does not show that as an update. Now when you look at the app store icon it has a little #28 on it but when I go into the App Store app to see the updates it only shows 4 because I have deleted all the other apps.
    Things to know.
    This phone has only ever been in icloud.
    Never connected to the computer.
    I have tried every version of signing out of itunes, deleting apps, resetting network settings, reset by holding on/off and home button that I can read about. I'm at a loss.
    These are my main questions/concerns-
    Why won't the deleted apps come off the screen?
    Why does the App store icon show 28 but when go into the App store app it only has 4 updates?
    Why is there no ios 7.03 to update to?
    Why can't we update the 4 apps that need to be updated? (she can't use them at all)
    Even the apps that have been deleted and show to be in the cloud can't be downloaded-why not?
    I would really appreciate any help. It's been such a problem...I really don't want her to lose everything if possible. She is a 13 year old girl and would love to keep all her data etc.
    Thanks in advance,
    Stephanie

    If this is only happening occasionally with incoming calls, I would check the signal strength where it occurs and also check with the carrier to have them check your account. Phone calls are a carrier responsibility, and since it seems to be a infrequent issue, I would look at the carrier first.

  • I'm having serious problems with Lightroom plug in for Facebook not working on my iMac. Help!

    It started about a month ago with LR4. I kept getting problems with not being able to publish to Facebook because of problems with the plug-in which had been working perfectly up to then. I had a run round that worked by disableing and reloading the plug in. I upgraded to LR5 but the problem persisted and in fact just became worse. I can no longer publish to facebook from LR. I deleted the LR app in facebook as someone advised but now I cannot re-authorise with Facebook. When I go to the "connect" buton nothing happens. This is a serious problem that may make me reluctantly abandon Lightroom if I cannot find a solution. Can anybody help?

    According to the Lightroom Facebook page, Facebook broke it and Facebook has to fix it- there is no ETA.

  • I have just changed my iCloud account and am now having serious problems with Calendar on my Macbook Pro. Any ideas?

    I decided to start using iCloud etc but discovered that my Apple ID doesn't actually exist (I was literally told this over the phone my an Apple Support worker) which is weird, as my email address for this Apple ID still exists. This is the first time I'd had any problems of this sort as I'd never had to use my Apple ID before. So anyway, I signed out of iCloud (i.e. signed out of my non-existant account) and signed in with my other, working, iCloud account which I've had absolutely no problems with whatsoever. All well and good.
    Before signing out of/deleting my old iCloud account I moved all my events in Calendar from "iCloud" to "On My Mac" so that I wouldn't lose the information when switching to my new account. No problems with this. However now that I am signed in on my new account, every time I open Calendar I receive the following two error messages:
    "Couldn't move your calendars to iCloud because an error occurred.
    Make sure you're connected to the Internet, and then try again."
    "The server responded with an error.
    Access to account "iCloud" is not permitted.
    The server responded:
    "403"
    to operation
    CalDAVMigrateToServerQueueableOperation."
    Note that with regards to the first one I am definitely connected to the internet. I have tried restarting my Macbook, have tried enabling/disabling Calendar in iCloud, nothing has worked. I always get these error messages. I have two options, "Try Again Now" or "Try Again Later", for the first message and "Try Again" or "OK" for the second. Pressing anything just results in the error messages just coming up again in a cyclic manner, after briefly trying to "Move calendars to server account". Sometimes a pop up also appears where it says "Upgrading calendars" with a progress bar but this freezes/never goes anywhere, and regardless of the outcome, I cannot access my information in Calendar. Note that behind these error messages etc I can see my events in Calendar but I cannot access the detailed information contained within them nor can I add any new information or essentially do anything in Calender. Sometimes Calendar crashes and I get a crash report.
    Sorry for this dense block of information but I have no idea what's going on so I'm just trying to give a clear account of the problems I'm facing. I really hope someone will be able to help me with this and I thank you in advance.
    Sam

    Don't worry I've sorted it! I just had to turn off Reminders as well in iCloud. Calendar then worked fine, even when I turned Calendar and Reminders back on.

  • WiFi problem with iOS 7.0.3 and iPhone 5

    My iPhone 5 has been working flawlessly with iOS6. After updating it to iOS 7 I have an irritating problem with the WiFi connection at work. Everything is OK for some time, then the WiFi connection just stops working. There is a WiFi icon max signal strength icon but there's just no connection. There are usually no error messages. Safari would just spin the connectivity icon forever with nothing showing on the screen. Facebook won't load anything, etc. Unfortunately the phone won't fallback to cellular. I have to either reset it, or restart it. Sometimes just diabling-enabling WiFi works, sometimes not.
    I've read a lot about this problem, it seems to be very common on 4S, however it seems I am alone to have it on 5. I've tried all the suggested solution - reset my network settings, I have even reinstalled my iPhone as a new one and not from my iOS6 backup. It doesn't help.
    Note that the problem is not in our WiFi network since my iPad 3 works perfectly and has connectivity at the same time.
    Having in mind this is very widespread issue on iPhone 4S which is still not fixed even in version 7.0.3, I am kind of exhausted. I've been a loyal Apple fan but if this doesn't get fix in the next iOS 7 update, I'll probably look other brands finally. It's really such a shame!

    You are not alone i am having same issue on my i5 ios7.0.3  but apple is still not responding on the issue several sites and even apple discussion forum is filled with this issue no major fix or trick works as what apple says in its help. waiting for apple to respond on this isuue

    Well, it sounds like your VPN isn't configured correctly.  Turn the slider to off under Settings - General - VPN, and it shouldn't try to connect.  If you have installed a 3rd party VPN OR a profile from your company, you might have to disable or delete the profile to turn VPN off.

  • Having serious problems with Google Adsense and iWeb

    Ok, I'm totally ignorant when it comes to web work. I can direct friggin' movies but this web stuff, forget it.
    However, I am playing around with a video podcast and would like to try and do the website myself. But I can't seem to have any luck setting up Google's adsense on the site. I've followed the steps in the following link...
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=399399&tstart=0
    ...and the results are not good.
    One thing, since I'm no longer using my .mac account to host (can't use ads on there?) I am hosting the site through powweb. I don't know if that has anything to do with why it's acting like this.
    My web address is offthestriplv.com. If anyone could check out the site and shed a little light on why it's so messed up, I'd greatly appreciate it.
    Thanks for your time everybody.

    There are several problems. The code is showing, and also the positioning is off.
    To exactly position where you want the ad to go, you need to position the text box of the exact same dimensions as the completed ad (or slightly larger to be on the safe side) exactly where you want it on the page.
    Then type some text in the box. When you've published, you need to replace the text you've typed with the code. You obviously managed it once with the centre strip of google ads, but the top and bottom ones, it seems you've just pasted the code into the iWeb page. You can't just paste code into an iWeb page, only after publishing.
    Another reason for the code showing is that you've not replaced the text properly and missed out some tags, so when the browser comes to render the page, it's treating it like text.
    Hope that helps
