Im stuck on the "emergency calls only screen"

please help

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

    first of all the iphone 4 is not a 4G phone
    second it sounds like your iphone could be locked to another operator then the sim you have inserted

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • IPhone4: Stuck on on emergency calls only

    Hi i recently got a problem with my iphone whenever i turn it on theres a connect to itunes logo then says restore needed or emergency calls only, and when i connect it to itunes it says " itunes could not connect to iPhone "my iphone" because it is locked with a passcode. you must enter your passcose on the iPhone before it can be used with itunes.
    I have tried other steps around this to restore my phone but i dont have my phone backed up so i will loose all my photos.
    If anyone knows how i can get around this and back up my phone please help me out
    Thanks,

    There is no way around this. You will have to put the phone in recovery mode (google for instructions) and restore it. If it was not backed up, your data will be lost. It can not be backed up in the state it is in.

  • I have an iphone 2g and its stuck on the emergency call screen, how can i fix this? jailbreak?

    help!

    It seems the SIM requirements for this situation are different for the 2G.  From that document...
    If you no longer have the SIM that was used with the original iPhone, and the original iPhone displays the "Connect To iTunes" screen, contact your carrier to get a replacement SIM.
    I don't know if you'll need an account or not... sorry, I don't have experience with a 2G.

  • 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.

  • HT201401 I need to restore my iPhone. When I connect to my pc in iTunes it asks me to unlock the phone using my password.  Problem is that I can't get to the password lock screen to do so. I can only get either the iTunes screen or the Emergency Call scre

    I need to restore my iPhone.  Once in iTunes, I get an error message asking me to use my passowrd to unlock phone. The problem is that I can't get to the password lock screen. All I can get is the iTunes screen or the emergency call only screen.

    yes did you buy it of somebody or a well known company such as apple or carphone warehouse?
    and i mean the phone would have been activated in the first place with the sim card you get given when you first get the phone.
    trying to activate the phone with another sim card that you did not get when you brought the phone may result in you not being able to activate it
    no worries

  • Trying to update my iphone to 4.0 for apps and now its stuck on emergency calls only. please help !

    I have recently tried to update my iphone 2g to the latest version so i can get new apps. Pluged it it to my PC & itunes wanted to sync everything now that it has restored itself after several hours its now stuck on the "emergencey calls only" screen. If anyone has any idea how to fix this id appricate it a lot thanks!

    as a matter of fact my USB is plugged into my PC & my iPhone & this is what Itunes is telling me.
    The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does npot appear to be supported.
    only compatible SUM cards from a supported Carrier may be used to activate iPhone. Please insert the SIM care that came with iPhone or visit a supported Carriers store to receive a replacement SIM card.

  • "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.
