IPhone 4S: Keyboard disappeared after latest update to iOs 8.

After this latest iOS update ( 8 ) the keyboard on my iPhone 4S has gone missing. When I go to type something the emoji screen appears but is unresponsive. An acquaintance told me to power down the iPhone, take out the battery for a few seconds, re-insert battery and power back up. I'm hesitant about doing this.

That is a new feature described in Connect your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch using Continuity
You can turn it off by going to Settings > FaceTime and turn "iPhone Cellular Calls" to off.
The quote below is from the above link and gives more description of when it would work with that setting turned on.
Phone calls
To make and receive phone calls on your iPad or iPod touch, here's what you need:
Your iPhone and your iPad or iPod touch need to use iOS 8 or later.
Both devices must be on the same Wi-Fi network.
Both devices must be signed in to FaceTime using the same Apple ID.
This means any iOS device that shares your Apple ID will get your phone calls. Look below for instructions on how to turn off iPhone cellular calls.
Wi-Fi Calling needs to be off.

    It sounds a lot like your phone was jailbroken or hacked to unlock it before you updated.
    Was it?

  • My iphone will not charge after latest update.

    After I did the latest update first my middle button stopped working then the volume stopped working but both were fixed after a restart. Now my phone won't charge I get the message cable not compatible but it's the charger that came with the phone. Please help.

    After a full 8 hour charge it only shows about 40% charge.  This phone worked without incident before the last two firmware updates.  I use the same wall charger and Apple cord for my iPad and wife's phone (she has not updated her phone to iOs 6.0.1) and they all work great.  There must be something in the new update that kills battery life. By the way, I replaced my battery less than a month ago.

  • IPhone 3Gs: Error (-1) after attemped update to iOS 5

    After attempting to update to iOS 5 on my 3Gs, my iphone becomes bricked and enters recovery mode. The update proceeded as normal without issue untill it asked me to for a restore. Now, after every attempt to restore I receive the message: unknown error (-1).
    theiphonewiki.com lists error (-1) as:
    "Error occurs when one uses the "last ditch" method for preventing baseband updates on the iPhone 4. The baseband does not get updated using this method. Use TinyUmbrella to kick it out of recovery mode."
    My 3Gs is not jailbroken and I am unsure of thrid party software when it comes to my apple devices. Also error (-1) shows to be an error message for the iPhone 4, which is not the case in my situation.
    I have attempted these procedures:
    Removed the sim card, attempted recovery without sim card (x1): No change.
    Reinstalled the sim card, attempted recovery (x1): No change.
    Rebooted computer, attempted recovery (x5): No change.
    Switched USB ports, attempted recovery (x4): No change.
    Attempted recovery on multipule computers (x6): No change.
    Reinstalled iTunes, rebooted, attempted recovery (x1): No change
    Has anyone else experienced this issue? If so, has any procedure that I haven't tried worked for you? Any insight or recommendations would be very helpful.
    Thanks in advance!

    Here's what fixed it for me. Pretty simple mistake I overlooked.
    I turned off the firewall that was running in the back ground through my virus protection control panel. I then proceeded to make another attempt and it finished as it should have. I did loose all my settings, pictures and videos although, I still have the 2 notes I made in the Notes app. I would have gladly sacrificed the measurements I took for the gutters on my house for the pictures I took of my nephew the day he was born. This is a wake up call to import my photos more offten and/or before another update. Win some, loose some I guess. At least I can make phone calls now. >.<
    I hope this will work for anyone else having the same issues.
    Good luck!

  • Iphone 5s keyboard blank after software update to 8.3

    After updating to the latest software version the keyboard is blank on my Iphone 5s this is in multiple apps and after backing up, wiping and reinstalling the software. Can anyone help?

  • Iphone 4s keyboard useless after os7 update

    Hi
    Dowloaded os7 last night, now it takes 30secs or so to enter a 4 digit code, the same when trying to write a text, you press a key, it clicks, then nothing happens for what seems an age, about 10 secs in truth, been on to tech support, can help me, restored through I tunes no improvement, help! Closest Genius Bar appointment is the 25th

    I have the same problem with my iPhone 4. It is about 3 months old and the wear/damage that I can assume is bein done is going to....fry it, I would say render it useless but iOS 7 has done that already. I did not agree to download this new iOS Apple made the discion for me to install it "OTA" which they said was the problem and I should restore to factory default without backup, clean install. I did and it changed nothing. Running absolute barebones, no apps, no music, and every feature that is possible to disable, disabled. The 3G data randomly and often just stops working and I have to hard restart. When it is working it is worthless anyway, staring at the screen 10 minutes to load apple.com in safari. I have been an exclusive iPhone user for years and never thought I would say this but I will never buy another iPhone after this. I'm completely shocked. Steve Jobs must be turning over in his grave. I used to be so impressed with Apples attention to customer satisfaction. It's a shame shareholders aren't more concerned about their profit margins a few years from now.

  • HT4623 why my iphone are not responding after i update the latest ios? and the screen displaying itunes icon

    why my iphone are not responding after i update the latest ios? and the screen displaying itunes icon

    You are in Recovery Mode. Follow the instructions below to recover your iPad.
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
    3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button.
    5. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad. Data will be lost.

  • Personal Hotspot menu disappeared after I updated my iPhone to iOS 4.3.3

    Personal Hotspot menu disappeared after I updated my iPhone to iOS 4.3.3
    My carrier provides tethering service and I used it often so I don't think this is from network problem.
    What I remember is that after I upgrade my iPhone to iOS 4.3.3 I once activated personal hotspot function and it was hanged.
    So I reboot my iPhone and the menu disappeared. Is this another bug that is from iOS 4.3.3??

    What is the exact wording of the error message you received?
    Has your iPhone been jailbroken or modified to work with other
    than the original wireless provider?
    Not wise to post IMEI or ICCID in the clear, FYI. I have asked
    the hosts to edit that info in your post.

    Double click the home button, then swipe towards the right at the bottom of the screen . This will reveal
    Four icons, the one all the way to the left toggles the screen rotation lock on or off.

  • After latest update Mountain Lion, fan never stop working!

    Hi all
    After latest update (26/9/2012 in my case) of Mountain Lion, the fan start working and never stops (Macbook pro 5,5).
    Any other have sam issue?
    Already tried to reboot SMC and delete everything starting from snow leopard but problem still exist!!!
    Thanks.

    I keep an old wired keyboard and wired mouse for just such emergencies, but that is not helping you now.  There are at least a couple of things that could account for the disappearance of the Bluetooth preference pane.
    There may have been a glitch in the installation.
    The preference pane will not be displayed if the bluetooth transceiver was not detected when the computer started.
    This may seem too obvious, but try completely powering down using the power button on your Mac mini. Wait at least 30 seconds for everything in the mini to fully discharge. While you are waiting to restart, check/replace the batteries in your wireless keyboard and mouse or trackpad. Restart using the power button on the Mac mini.
    If that does not work almost anything else will require the use of a wired keyboard and mouse. For years I have kept a wired keyboard and mouse around for just such an emergency, but in a fit of spring cleaning they were discarded. I ended up having to buy a cheap USB mouse and keyboard at Radio Shack (under $20 for the pair but no command key). But, with any kind of luck, you should be able to borrow a wired keyboard and mouse to get this fixed. Once you have a functioning keyboard and mouse you could...
    Be sure Bluetooth is turned ON in System Preferences
    Install the OS X 10.8.4 (Combo) updater or
    Boot into the recovery drive (Reboot while holding down Command + R) and reinstall OS X 10.8.4

  • Wine doesn't start utorrent anymore after latest update [SOLVED]

    Like the subject says, wine doesn't start utorrent anymore after latest update.  The output I get is the following:
    $ wine /mnt/data/utorrent/utorrent-1.6.1-beta-build-478.exe
    fixme:vxd:VXD_Open Unknown/unsupported VxD L"sice.vxd". Try setting Windows version to 'nt40' or 'win31'.

    and then it hangs.  If I change my Windows version in winecfg to for instance Windows XP, the first 2 errors disappear, but wine still hangs:

    Does anybody have an idea to what might be going on?
    Enabling DRI and disabling DRI doesn't help.  Updating to the latest wine 0.9.30-1 also didn't change anything.

    Problem is solved.  Had to delete the .wine folder.  Lost all utorrent settings, but it works again now.
