IPhone 4s blacks out since IOS7.2 latest upgrade

I have upgraded to a 4S from a 4 IPhone. It has the upgrade IOS.7.2 (the latest) upgrade for the software). With these 2 changes, I have had episodes where the phone goes black and I cannot use it.....until it decides to come back for maybe, a short time and then does it again. I went back to see the Genuis and they said it was a software glitch and supposedly fixed it. The problem continued starting the next day. So, I went back a 3rd time and was provided a brand new Iphone (this is the 2nd one in a week). We put the IOS.7.2 upgrade on it as well......and guess what? The problem is continuing. Obviously, it's not the hardware; the Iphone itself. It must be in the new software. BUT if the Genuis' can't fix it, what do I do? Anyone know what it is and how to fix it???
Thank you,
Pat

Have the exact same issue, and after spending over one hour at the Genius Bar I was told by the store manager that the only way to solve the issue was to buy a replacement phone because it wasn't IOS 7 to caused the issue but it was the wireless chip that was going to break regardless, and the iOS upgrade just accelerated the issue...
I have even showed her the plenty of threads like this one about the issue and she said they were all coincidences.
The thing is that the phone was brand new as it was replaced by apple 6 moths ago and super well taken care off...
I have been an iPhone user since the first hour and never had an issue till the 4s.
I'm super disappointed with the apple customer serviceman lack of care towards long time customers.
If you know your old phones won't work with the new iOS do not offer the upgrade.
It seems to me like a poor scheme to sell more new generation iPhones, since you can't even downgrade the iOS 6.
Now I'm stuck with a $600 clunker that can barely make phone calls since the 4g antenna is compromised, and that it's battery drains within 4 hours in plane mode wth no apps running.
I'm sad to say but it is time to get a windows phone or an android.
Shame on you apple...

IPhone 4 black out

Hi, my iPhone 4 is black out since last two hrs, I have tried pressing home & sleep button simultaneously for 10-20 sec for so many times, nothing happening, please help..

Have you tried charging it for atleast 20 minutes? if you haveopen up itunes on your computer then hold the home button while plugging it in to the computer. Keep holding it for another 30 seconds and see if you get a message saying itunes has detected a phone in recovery mode

My iphone 4s blacked out you cant see anything but I white line, how do you transfer everything from your iphone to a computer

Next time make regular backups of your computer. The iPhone is not a backup device, and I'm sure you lost more than your iTunes library. See this user tip for your options: Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive

I have an iPhone 5. Just downloaded the latest Upgrade and it is not updating my mailboxes or showing that I even have mail like the other version did, when I open the mailbox icon

i have an iPhone 5 and just downloaded the latest upgrade.iOS 7. Dunno what happened but it no longer is "pushing" my email into my mailboxes nor is it showing that I even have mail when I open the Mailbox icon. What happened? What do I need to do to fix? help

That number is for an apple server in the UK that is used for iMessage activation. A hidden SMS is snet to that number when you turn iMessage on and is used to verify your phone number. I suggest you turn iMessage off. In settings/phone turn on dial assist. Check with your carrier to see if you can send an international SMS as you end that possibility to activate iMessage. Rest your phone (Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost).) then turn iMessage back on.

Changes since the latest upgrade

since the latest upgrade from november some strange things happenend. In the 'working-environment I see on this page 6 different items to click on (the smaller ones). In the preview mode and browser mode some of these items are gone (you can't see them) but they are still clickable. This happend on more pages.

This happened one time before but a day later it was magically on again!

Sounds like it's time to bring your phone to Apple for evaluation

Screen Black Out since upgraded to 10.6.5

During the update to 10.6.5 using downloaded DMG (from Apple site), my Macbook black out during the installation. My LCD screen became Black, couldn't brighten up using F2 (brightness control). I have to Share Screen from my other iMac to click RESTART after the installation.
My 2nd black out happened just 20 minutes ago while I was in Mail program. My LCD turned black and couldn't brighten up. So I force Shut Down to restart my computer.
Any advice on this because the 1st Black Out happen during installation, and today's the 2nd. It never happen before, could it be there's a bug in the software update to 10.6.5?

It happened this morning again. Attached a picture I took of my MacBook when it went dark. I have to close the lid to sleep and wake up again to regain brightness.

IPhone 4 blacked out...

hi, i was wondering if anyone else's iphone 4 just blacked out on them. by "blacked out", i mean, no home screen, no power, and all the buttons are unresponsive. i hit the home and power button a thousand times and the phone never turned back on.
eventually, i held the home and power button and the phone powered on. this has happened to me twice since the 4.2 upgrade. anyone else had this happen to them?

Hello Everyone,
I apologize but I had a specific question for merged content 1 and have no idea of another way to contact this person. I have spent hours with apple tech support to no avail. I read an old blog he was posting in and seemed to be "the man" or "woman" (MC1 just sounds like a male name.. haha) on ATVs (apple tvs). I cannot get my ipad mini or iphone 5 to mirror of even airplay with my ATV 3 after just taking it to the family room of my house and hooking it up down there for just a few minutes. No matter what we have tried, I mean every thing, I have a pretty extensive network of multimeda equipment, but i have taken it down to just the ATV and router....to luck. I cannot get that icon to appear and we have tried it all. I can however use it as and audio output source... If you or anyone else (just PM me or send me to the propler spot please!). feel free can offer any assistance in finding a solution I would be very appreciative. I know I can just trade it in for a new one but it might not fix the problem. Once again my aplogies to everyone on this blog. If there is a way to PM a specific bloggist, please let me know this is the first time I have done this and hopefully the last!
Good Luck with your troubleshooting everyone,
Russ

IPhone 4 blacks out, could not work with just pressing the home button and lock screen button, only worked when I plugged it in the charger

My iPhone 4 started to blackout out of nowhere and it wont work only until I plugged my phone into the charger. It has been going on for several times in a day, where it just randomly blacks out. Do anyone know what is the problem and how do I exactly fix this? thanks

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
