Iphone 3G freezing and randomly opening apps...HELP

Ok, So my Iphone originally began freezing while using apps, phone, etc. The Apple store told me to do a hard restore and delete my old back-up files, set up as a new phone, etc. and it would fix the problem. They said it seemed like a broken or damaged software update problem. I have done that 3 times and its still not working right.
If I don't lock my phone and I leave it open, it will randomly open my Contacts and start clicking on contacts and it will end up calling someone. It also happens while Im on my Facebook app. If I am just looking at a friends page or something its like it clicks through and sends me to random places on Facebook. It does this on top of freezing while in the middle of writing a text message or performing any other task on my phone. To fix the freeze I have to exit out of the app and make my phone "sleep" and when I go back in, it will work. Does anyone have any advice on how to fix this irritating problem??

holaaaaa
neesito ayuda, mi computador se formatio y no alcanse a hacer copia de seguridad de itune, como puedo hacerlo para cuando sincronise mi iphone 3g con la computadora y no perder ninguna de las aplicaciones???
ayuda pleaseee

  • Freeze and random reboot. HELP!

    I'm going to try to keep this short as it is a long story.
    Recently I reformatted my hard drive and installed Windows XP Professional. After the installation I realized that I do not have the drivers for some of the hardware. I installed all latest drivers off their webpages but only one problem. Now the computer randomly freezes (more likely to freeze if IE or Mozilla is opened) and sometimes on rare occasion will reboot itself. I've searched and checked everywhere and found only little information. Possibly the video cards driver is too new or too old, P/S, general driver defaults, etc, etc. With the help of SIW I found that the P/S and temperatures are all normal, so that can be rulled out. My questions are; Has anyone had this type of problem or know how it can be resolved? And also, could it be possible for my RAM cards to be at fault for the freezing or rebooting?
    Here is my setup:
    Asus Desktop
    AMD Athlon 62 3200+ Processor
    MSI K8N Neo MS-7030 VER. 1 Mainboard
    ATI Radeon 9550 Series AGP 256M Video Card
    again... O/S is Windows XP Pro

    Hang in there, these problems can be very hard to diagnose.  Trust me, I know.  I'm having some very similar ones.
    Disable automatic reboot in System Properties\Advanced\Performance\Advanced.  This allows you to see the BlueScreen information before you manually reboot.
    Try uninstalling all the drivers you recently installed.  Install different versions of the drivers, either older or newer, one at a time.  Test things thoroughly in between.  Try to document exactly what you were doing and what was loaded when you have the failure.  If you get a Blue Screen, write down all the information.
    Post back.

  • IPhone goes bizerk and randomly opens applications, Voice command ect.

    My IPhone seems to be having a software glitch, opening applications, voice command, ITunes, all without me touching the phone. It really is almost like it is posessed and all I can do it turn off the phone using the reset(home and top button). If I try to turn it off the normal way it just takes pictures of the screen. Anyone else experienced this, have solutions? Thanks.

    Take the device out of the case that is putting pressing on the power button.
    If it's not in a case, basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these steps in order until the issue is resolved.

    The update didn't apply correctly.
    Did you follow the steps exactly in order to restore? disconnect all cables, open iTunes, then connect micro usb

    Make sure to connect directly to computer, not a keyboard port or USB hub. Try a different cable.

    My iPhone 4 freezes and has now shut down since doing the update this past Saturday.

    Hi candybooist,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  This article has steps you can take if your iPhone is unexpectedly powering off:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Cheers,
    - Ari

  • Where is my "Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps" option?

    I want to turn off the "Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps" option but I don't see it in my General pane of the System Preferences, unlike what the on-line posts say. What am I missing?   Running 10.8.4

    Quit all of your apps.
    Navigate to here: ~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.loginwindow.*.plist (whereby * is a bunch of characters)
    Click the file, do a File > Get Info and lock it using the Locked checkbox.
    To reverse this setting, simply unlock the file!
    Another helpful hint as well: Lion, by default, hides your ~/Library/ folder. To make it visible again without showing all of your other invisible files, simply open up Terminal and type:
    chflags nohidden ~/Library/

  • The "Resume"/"Restore Windows When Quitting and Re-opening Apps" feature issues

    The "Resume"/"Restore Windows When Quitting and Re-opening Apps" features have issues with restoring windows of various applications (Safari, Preview etc.) to the corresponding Desktops on which they were before system reboot/shutdown or app restart. E.g. Preview windows appear on random Desktops after the system reboot and on the sane (N1) Desktop after Preview restart. How to fix this?

    Create a new User go to System Preferences > Users & Groups > "+" (make it an admin acct) and test the feature in this new account, if it works the problem is isolated to your User and not systemwide. If it's in your user only, it's probably a Login Item or pref file.
    If it's systemwide, since this feature may not have been tested on multiple Desktops

  • Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps will not stay unchecked

    I upgraded my early 2011 model 15" MBP to Lion and this new feature is resulting in lots of strange behavior when it comes to system start-up and when i launch apps afterwards.  For now, I want to simply shut this feature off, so I go to System Preferences > General and I uncheck the "Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps" control.  If I then close and reopen system preferences, the check on this control is back!  I have tried various forms of other work-arounds such as locking the folders on an app by app basis in the ~/library/Saved Application State folder for the apps that act wierd and it sort of helped, but nothing seems allow me to just shut this off globally and make it stick.  Any thoughts on why I can't get the preference change to stick?

    The Preferences selection simply stops the applications themselves from relaunching (previous state) windows when you launch them manually.
    The log-out check box is for something entirely different. It stops the applications from relaunching, if they were open when you logged out, or shutdown.
    There is no way to keep that second behaviour from occuring as a default. Apple will have to make a change in Lion to make the change something you can set as a permanent preference.
    I use an automator script application to perform my shut-downs with one click. I have an alias for the script in my dock, right next to the Finder icon. The same script also "uncheck's" the box of which you are speaking.

  • IPhone 4 freezes and will not restart or restore using iTunes.

    iPhone 4 freezes and will not restart and cannot be restored using iTunes (unknown error 1602). My daughter's iPhone 4 did the same thing 10 days ago. Is this a software glitch? I replaced her phone, but I'm ready to switch to Android.

    I am using Sophos Antivirus, but after disabling, still no luck. Tried the other USB port; no luck (same 1602 error). I'll take it to the Apple store tomorrow, but if they recommend replacing the phone I'm switching.
    I went through this ~15 years ago when the Apple OS got so buggy and unstable that I had to abandon PowerBooks and switch to Windows. Oddly enough, this was after Jobs left the first time. I hope history isn't repeating itself.
    Thank you for the suggestions.

  • Hello I want to Buy iPhone 5 CDMA and GSM open and I am in Yemen how to do it

    Hello I want to Buy iPhone 5 CDMA and GSM open and I am in Yemen how to do it

    NO it won't work in India because all the iPhones for sale in the USA are carrier locked to networks, so no they won't work outside the USA.
    There will be no unocked iPhones for sale in the US at the moment which is what you need, and anyway, if you purchased one in the US, there is no international warranty so there is nothing you can do.
    You will have to wait because it won't work in India.
