Iphone 4   ios 6   skullcandy aviator headphone   issues

I have the Skullcandy RocNation Aviator Headphones that were designed for iphones.  They worked great until I upgraded to ios 6.  Now I hear myself and my surroundings echoed within the headphones.  In addition, the buttons on the cord no longer control the volume or pause/play functions for calls, music, or books.  Is anyone else have issues with this? Is there a fix for this?  Any info regarding this issue is greatly appreciated.  I hate to think that I wasted good money on headphones that only worked for about 2 months before apple decided to push ios 6 onto everyone.

If it makes you feel any better, I have the exact same problem with Apple standard headphones, on an iPhone 4 running iOS6.
So widespread iOS6 issue I guess

  • IPhone 6 iOS 8.1.2 Update Issues

    I've updated my iPhone 6's iOS just right after Apple released its iOS 8.1.2. After the update, I've experienced issues on my iPhone, specifically the following:
    1. Battery issue - My battery has been terrible since the update. I now charge my phone three times a day though my activities are all plain social media, e-mail and SMS. I usually turn my LTE off when I dont use it and most of time, I use wifi. I used to charge my phone only once and it would last a day.
    2. Screen brightness - Ive noticed that my screen adjusts by itself even my auto-brightness option is off. Ive never turned it on to save battery.
    3. App Updates - Ive experienced several times that when I update an app, it won't complete the update and when I check back the status, it restarts. It will go that cycle around 3 times then will complete the update.
    Has anyone experienced the same?

    Thanks bud!
    I just got into bigger trouble. Ive restored my phone back to factory settings. Twas successful. I went through the normal iOS setup and restored my back up. I need to say though that during the setup, I was successful to set my touch ID and my passcode (entered my passcode twice). Then.. the twist was that when I went back to Settings after few minutes to add more fingerprints, my phone is prompting me that Ive entered an incorrect passcode, which blocked me from using it! Really really sad!
    This is a different issue now. But would you know how to fix this?
    I tried the recovery mode.. Restore thru iTunes.. but none of them worked. Also, now trying the DFU..
    I turned off my find my iphone via my phone (before it locked out). Got an email too that my device has disabled find my iphone. And then when I plug my iphone to my mac, itunes would say I cant restore because i should disable find my iphone... So, I looked at my icloud account via the internet and indeed, my iphone was not in the devices list anymore.
    Someone help?

  • HT4993 iPhone 4s IOS 6.1.1 Calendar issue

    I upgraded my iPhone 4s to iOS 6.1.1 two days, after the upgrade, my calendar is not working correctly. Any event which is not created by me could not be edited, As soon as I open the event, I get either to "decline", "MAyBe" or "Accept" option. Even after press any option, I open again and get the same option. Any suggestions? This seems to be bug in the new release.

    The response from Apple Engineering which is not a Apple like response:
    "Apple Engineering did respond saying this is a known issue, and that at this point it is something that will be addressed in a software update in the future with a software update.  Let me know if theres anything else I can assist you with"
    It seems to me that iOS 6.1.1 has more issues then fixes.

  • IPhone 5 / iOS 6.0.2 network issue

    I found the problem of my iPhone5+iOS6.0.2
    It is all about network.
    By SpeedTest.Net app, combinatons of wifi, lte, celluar data options on and off, I could get each individual speed and server connected. (My wifi = 18M, LTE = 7M, 4G/3G = 1.5M)
    When the normal usage with all 3 options ON, the data connection actually goes through the slowest of 4g/3g, instead of wifi.
    I disagree that the signal strength is the cause since all tests were done with a iPhone4+iOS5.1.1 at the same time; iPhone 4 connected wifi and worked well.
    All this reminds me the 'preferred connection' as network configuration, but I don't know how to set it on iOS.
    I am hoping this is not LTE chip issue...

    Yes it's normal if one phone is on 4G/LTE and the other is on 3G as the cell towers could be different, the frequencies definitely are different etc. which makes the signal strength vary.
    In my case the problem is that I have a 4S and a 5S on the same network on 3G. The 4S works fine, the 5S cannot get a decent signal. Looks like the 5S radio performance is sub-standard compared to the 4S.

  • IPhone 4S iOS 5.1.1 battery issue

    Hi, i have an iPhone 4S 16GB iOS 5.1.1 and have terrible battery life.
    I fully charged my phone to 100% this morning and it has drained 70% in just 7 hours under very minimal usage [wifi OFF - cellular data OFF - bluetooth OFF - photo stream OFF - location services OFF] also i have only 15 downloaded apps and about 400 songs after a major cleanup.
    I also factory restored my device the day before and had done multiple hard resets, so please don't give me advice about that. I am wondering if there is any fix because atm i am certainly leaving apple if there is no fix

    Who are you talking to?  Did you do a forum search?  (Start with the "More Like This list on the right side of this screen.)

  • Iphone 5/ios 7.0.2 camera issues

    I have an iPhone 5. Since the update to 7.0.2, my camera keeps crashing. Especially the back camera seems to be the problem. I did restore my phone two times on iTunes and it does not help for long. Is this a  software issue and should i wait for 7.0.3? Or should i go to a Apple store?

    Hi NilbusX,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!

    Camera isn't functioning
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.  (Double click on the Home button and swipe UP on the thumbnail above the camera app.)
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tapping Settings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Third-party cases can interfere with the autofocus/exposure feature and the flash (iPhone 4 only); try removing the case if you have image-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center. Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. After recording begins, you cannot readjust focus until you stop recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll. Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
    Cheers,
    Judy

  • IPhone 4 iOS 6.0.1 upgrade issues; back-up won't load and unable to sync with iTunes

    I've just updated my iPhone4 to iOS 6.0.1 and went through the back-up routine.  The back-up routine appeared to partially update, displaying an error, however has brought through my contacts, previous messages and has even maintained my bluetooth connection with the car. The phone appears to function ok although it will now not sync with my iTunes and so will not download music and Apps to the phone.  I've tried to re-run the back-up however it just hangs with a message box advising that it is 'Estimating time remaining', a message that just hangs there for ages with no apparent actions (by ages I mean 15 minutes +).
    Any advice would be much appreciated; to say this is extremely frustrating is an understatement.
    Many thanks.

    Hello, having the same problem, but the answer by KiltedTim is too simplistic. Butcher60, any news? I have tried removing everything, still the same. It is true that Vista fails loading the driver, but, in my case, I noticed that:
    - if you reboot the sistem, the first time you connect any ios device, it is detected either by vista and by itunes. BUT if you disconnect it and connect it again, or connect another ios device, it is not detected enymore, neither by vista nor by i tunes, and you get the message, in managing resources, that the drivers of Apple mobile devices cannot be initialized (code 37)!!! This is so bad when you are doing an update (it is what happened to me), because, if you connect the device the first time, and then start the update, when reaching the point in which the device reboots, it is like connecting it for the second time, itunes does not detect it, and the device goes in recovery mode, so you must use another computer (with XP no such a problem, it seams) to complete it.
    - BUT the problem is not only by vista, something happend with itunes 10.7, because I went back to a recovery point before itunes last version, and the driver are loaded by vista every time, only when using itunes 10.7 the same error occurs, and I did not find any solution (because downgrading itunes is not possible)
    So, vista worked detecting ios devices before ios6 and itunes 10.7, it works without itunes 10.7 detecting every device, but it does not work with last i tunes. Can someone do something???

  • I am having an issue writing texts with Siri on iPhone 5 iOS 6.  When I do it just talking to the phone it works fine. However if I speak through the ear pod headphones or Bluetooth headset it only writes about 5 works before trying to send.

  • IPhone 6/iOS 8 email issues with wifi connection

    Hi
    I have just upgraded from an iPhone 4 (iOS 7) to an iPhone 6 (iOS 8) and am having an issue with my pop email account. I used my iPhone 4 backup to set up new iPhone, so all the settings were as they were in my old phone. I have two email accounts, one is an IMAP account and the other is a POP account (which is my main email), I have no problems connecting to the server and downloading emails when connected via 4G (its super fast), but when I am connected via wifi, the POP account takes ages to connect to the server and check for emails (stuck on checking for email). I can speed up the process by closing mail app completely and reopening, then it checks and downloads really quickly (IMAP account has no problems), but this is frankly a pain.
    I have spent ages on the phone with Apple support, who have got me to delete my POP email account twice, reset network settings, reset the phone using on/off button and home button, all to no avail. They are intent on telling me it's my email service providers fault, but as I pointed out there is no issue on 4G and my old iPhone (using iOS 7) on wifi has no issues, so can't be email provider. I have also tried using Apple's wifi in store to rule out router issue and the problem happened there too.
    Have now run out of suggestions and options. I'm not sure if it's the phone itself, either a hardware or software issue (Apple support think not). Someone told me that it could be the wifi on my phone blocking the connection to the server. I have an appointment booked at the genius brand they have suggested wiping the phone and setting up as a new phone to see if the problem occurs, but this seems a bit drastic and I would lose all messages etc. Any help would be appreciated.

    I have solved the issue! I tried my pop account on other devices with iOS 8 and the same thing happened, so I deduced that the issue is a glitch in iOS 8 with wifi and pop accounts. I managed to get hold of the IMAP settings for my email provider and all seems to be well. Happy days!

    Try resetting your phone by holding down the home and off button until the apple symbol comes up. Then if still doing, restore your phone in itunes from your backup.

    On my iphone 5 , i m facing slow wifi issue. Ios 6.0.2 didnt resloved it.any one please told me ios 6.1 fixed this issue or not b/c i m right now not in a mood to install the ios 6 .

    It seems that people experience slow wifi on iphone with IOS 6 under slightly different circumstances.
    Some have slow/choppy video streaming, some have problems with large dropbox files, some with app store and some with podcasts.
    Which is your problem AdeelRasheed?
    Me personally, I have download speed when on wifi.
    But only when downloading podcasts...
    Running 6.0.1 or 6.1 on iPhone 5, iPhone 4 and iPad 2.
    On WIFI I can download a 45 mb app from the appstore in less than a minute. I can stream Youtube and Netflix with no problems. Internet browsing - no problems.
    But downloading podcasts with Instacast 3, Downcast or the Apple Podcast app happens at a rate of 20-80 kb/s when on WIFI. As soon as I switch to 3g ( 4g/LTE is not yet available from my local provider) my download speed goes to between 300kb/s and 2 mb/s.
    Anyone else have this problem?

  • After update my iPhone 4 iOS to 4.0.1 my bettery gone so bad. Every 1% goes in every minute while browsing. Also system gone proper slow and 3G conectivity gone very poor. I really want to go back to ios 4.3.4 until these issue is resolved. Please help.

    Just look around the forum posts.  Your issue is the number one problem reported by users.  There are many suggestions found, some work for some users, others do not.
    Some users have reported no battery problems after the upgrade.  Others have improved performance after upgrading to 5.0.1 from 5.0.  YMMV.
    Many of the posts offer suggestions about changing various settings - there are many that affect the battery life.
    Once you upgrade the iOS on a device, you cannot go back to a previous version.
