IPhone 3G turns into iBrick after 2.2.1 firmware upgrade.

I've tried downgrading to 2.2, hard resetting and resetting my network settings, but I've still got no service. Is there a fix to this or is my iPhone bricked and in need of replacement?

Do a restore in iTunes but don't install your backup. If the restore works by itself without the backup, it's something corrupt in the backup. If it still doesn't work, I'd suggest a visit to ATT for a new SIM. If your account is setup properly and a new SIM doesn't correct the issue, the next step is a trip to the Genius Bar - http://apple.com/retail/geniusbar

    My iPhone 4 turns off (crashes) after accesing any apps, It work fine when plugged to charger (power supply). I tried all troubleshooting steps suggested by Apple but it doesn't work. I backed up my phone. I restored it several times. Even I re-installed iphone software. Also I restored it as a new iphone but doesn't work. What could be the problem and what are the availble solutions?

    We can't know if there's a "fixture" because we can't examine your phone.  But Apple can.  Make a Genius Bar appointment and get your phone evaluated.

  • My iphone 4 turns off automatically after screen lock

    Hello guys,
    my iphone 4 turns off automatically after screen lock, i have to press the POWER + HOME button during 10 secondes for reboot.
    And it's like that every time i lock the screen.
    Please can someone help me ?
    thanks.

    Standard troubleshooting steps are reset, restore, restore as new.
    Since resetting isn't working, try backing up and restoring through iTunes.

  • 3G on iPhone 4 Turning into Circle Often After Updating To iOS 6

    Hi,
    I was just wondering if anyone else has noticed something similar to what I'm experiencing. I have an iPhone 4 with Verizon service and updated to the new iOS 6 on Saturday. The last 3 days I have noticed that my 3G has turned into the circle more than it normally does. I live in Nashville and while I sometimes run into times where I get the circle, it's usually only once in awhile and this time it's happened several times over the last 3 days in places I go every day and normally have no problem.
    I have no idea if this is linked at all to updating to the new iOS 6 but figured it couldn't hurt to ask others' opinion.
    Thanks!
    Michelle

    My suggestion:
    Reset your device: Settings>>General>>Reset>>Reset All Ajustments.
    It will restore to all company ajustments, but it will not delete anything at all.
    After that, do not Sign In Facebook, I see many people got problems after Sign In Facebook.
    In my device, I do not fill last names, I just fill names in "First Name".
    Another question: Are you sync your contacts with Outlook or iCloud? I have suggested another one to do not sync with Outlook and, in iTunes:
    1.In resume, mark "Backup in iCloud"
    2. open Information and unmark the "Sync Contacts With". roll down the page and, in "Advance" field, unmark everything.
    3.Sync your device again.
    It probably will help you.
    Good Luck

  • Help, MBP 2,2 won't turn into Standby after upgrade to 10.7.2

    Recently I've upgraded from 10.7.1 to 10.7.2 via the Software-update utility, however now my MBP model 2,2 won't turn into standby mode when it is connected to the power adapter. Not when I close the lid, or when I select Standby via Apple -> Standby.
    On the other hand, when my MBP is running on battery there is no problem with going into Standby mode, so I thing it has something to do with the settings that are suddenly changed...
    Does anyone now if the settings have changed somehow? Or where I can change the settings?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hello Bastiaan,
    The first two days after installation of 10.7.2 and the Aperture update my laptop also refused to go to sleep, but that behaviour stopped recently all by its own. When I looked at the Activity monitor I saw the mac was indexing spotlight and rebuilding libraries, so probably it did not want to go to sleep while there still was critical work to be done to migrate properly to iCloud.
    I do not know of any other preference settings that might prevent sleep.
    So perhaps you should look at the Activity Monitor, if some high priority process is running, that might prevent sleep.
    If closing the lid does not work, that might be a hardware problem, but it seems to be unlikely, since it works when on battery power. Does your computer go to sleep when on power adapter, if you set the computer sleep interval to a very short time?
    Regards
    Léonie

  • All programs turned into itunes after download

    I recently downloaded Itunes 10.5 onto my HP laptop running windows 7. After the download was complete, all of my icons turned into itunes. Example: when I clicked on skype, Itunes opened. I uninstalled Itunes and restarted my laptop and everything was back to normal. How can I download Itunes without it messing up my laptop again?

    Fingers crossed.
    If possible, set up a system restore point first. Then try applying the .lnk registry patch from the following document:
    File Association Fixes for Windows 7
    Does that get your icons back to normal?

  • Problem After 1.52.02 Firmware Upgrade

    I have a BEFW11S4 v4 wireless router.  I am frequently having to reset my router after the firmware upgrade to 1.52.02.  I have had this router for years and have had very few problems.  After the firware update,  I am constantly losing my connection to the internet.  If I unplug the router and plug it back in,  it works fine.  This happens to me several time a day sometimes.  I would go back to an older version of firmware if one were available.  Anyone else having this problem ?  Anyone have a solution ?

    Don't go with the older firmware version, try to hard reset your router...
    Press and hold the reset button for 45 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 45 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...
    You should also adjust the wireless settings on your router...
    Wireless connections are often caused by radio interference from other 2.4 GHz devices. This includes wireless phones, wireless baby monitors, microwave ovens, wireless mice and keyboards, wireless speakers, and your neighbor's wireless network. In rare cases, Bluetooth devices can interfere. Even some 5+ GHz phones also use the 2.4 Ghz band. Unplug these devices, and see if that corrects your problem.
    In your router, try a different channel. There are 11 channels in the 2.4 GHz band. Usually channel 1, 6, or 11 works best. Check out your neighbors, and see what channel they are using. Because the channels overlap one another, try to stay at least +5 or -5 channels from your strongest neighbors. For example, if you have a strong neighbor on channel 9, try any channel 1 through 4.
    Also, try to locate the router about 4 to 6 feet above the floor, in an open area. Do not locate it behind your monitor or near other computer equipment or speakers...

  • IPhone screen turns off immediately after a message is sent.

    I am using an iPhone 5S (Running iOS 7.1.1) and whenever I send a message, as soon as my finger taps send, the "lock shutter" blacks out the screen and then unlocks itself after a few seconds. Anyone have any ideas?

    Hey there 4cpukid,
    It sounds like you are experiencing an issue where you tap Send in the Messages app and your phone unexpectedly goes to sleep. I would quit all the running apps on the device first:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that reset the phone and test the issue again:
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

  • Will iPhone 3G turn into iPod Touch?

    I have been thinking about upgrading to the iPhone 4. I currently have a 3G. My question is will I still be able to use my 3G not in the capacity making calls but turning it into a glorified iPod Touch? Nothing is currently wrong with the phone, just think its time to upgrade?
    My other question, has anyone tried this yet? I would like to know if it is worth the $199 upgrade.

    You can use a no longer activated iPhone as an iPod Touch, but in order to install a firmware update on a no longer activated iPhone or restore a no longer activated iPhone with iTunes if wanted or needed, the no longer activated SIM card that was used with the iPhone when it was activated must be inserted in the iPhone to complete the process. This does not involve re-activating the iPhone.
    Is it worth AT&T's subsidized price for the iPhone 4 which requires signing a new 2 year contract, I thought so or I would not have done it and I and continue to think so. There is a significant improvement with the iPhone 4 and the 3G.

  • IPhone 4 turn off randomly after one or two days. Need reset again and agin.

    Hi,
    My iPhone 4 is about 2.5 years old. Few days back it turned off suddenly while i was calling. It was not turning on from power button so  I reset it by pressing home+power key. It starts and work normally. After few days it again turned off and i again reset it. Now this behaviour is continueing. I have tried reseting it but issue not resolve. Please help to fix this

    Hey Tiffy6996!
    I have an article here for you that describes this issue and can help you troubleshoot the issue a little further:
    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.
    Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!

  • HT201412 why is my iphone not turning on even after i plugged it in

    my iphone refuses to charge

    If the hard reset doesn't work, try forcing recovery mode.
    Hold the home button and plug into your computer with iTunes open, continue to hold the home button until you get a prompt from iTunes, "A device had been detected in recover mode".
    Restore the device from there.

  • IPhone pictures turned into 'unknown data'

    First of all, i suck at backups..
    Since i updated my iphone 4 to iOS 5, i havent been able to acces my photo folder, about 5,2 gigs ~ 1700 pictures of of kids births and growing up etc..
    Anyway to get the photos back ? useing a iPhone 4s now, so the '4' with the photos on it, is not being used, i cant go back to before os 5 ? and i'v tryed to regen my 4s from the 4's backup, but it has the same problem

    Thanks for the advice....  Hopefully, Verizon will make good, after driving 50 miles one way to an Apple store, they wanted $149  and told me to wait three hours...   can't believe after this product changed my entire environment to Mac's, Mac Book Pro's and even Time Capsule...  Apple's customer service fell down when they are actually needed, and their product caused it... before the upgrade I had a fully functional phone.   Real Disapointing.  If Verizon can't help....  Hello Galaxy III...    most ironic part is there were several people as frustrated as I in the store at the same time with similar issues....   maybe they should have tested this more?
    Wish Time Capsule would let your restore an older version of iTUNES and then undo all of this...
