Iphone 5 brightness not working at all on IOs 6.0.2

i had my iphone 5 for three weeks now and i just noticed that my screen brightness doesnt change at all
niether manually and nor automatic
i tried to calibrate it using the automatic in the dark then revealing it to the light.. tried soft reset and hard reset.. but my brightness wont go down.. its the maximum even when i put the slider to the farest left. .. im hoping its not a hardware defect..
please help..

The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
Restart... Reset... Restore from Backup...  Restore as New...
If you try all these Steps and you still have issues... Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step...
Be sure to make an appointment first...

  • After updating my iphone 6 to ios 8.0.2, the iphone is not working at all!!

    after updating my iphone 6 to ios 8.0.2, the iphone is not working at all!! the apple logo shows up for a few seconds. then the screen goes red !! after it restarts and it do the same!! please help.

    Well, just for future reference, any time you do an iOS upgrade, it is a good idea to back up your device just prior to doing the download. You can back it up to iCloud or to iTunes. Personally, I prefer to back it up to iTunes, and then to do the download via iTunes as well. Doing a Wifi download can, by the very nature of the OTA environment, run into more issues than a hard-wired one via iTunes.
    If it is just a version release (like 8.0.1, or 8.0.2), then I might download it via Wifi, since the content is not likely to be very large. But for any major new release (7 to 8, etc.) it is always a good idea to do it via the USB cable rather than OTA.
    I would also suggest that you set up your device to do automatic iCloud backups. Whenever it is turned on (i.e., not manually powered off - it can be "asleep"), plugged into a power source, and connected to Wifi, it will do an automatic backup every 24 hours. Mine usually backs up at night.
    But even with my iCloud backup in reserve, I still did an iTunes backup before I upgraded to iOS 8. I like having the extra security of that second backup to choose from, should I need it. Here is a support article comparing the two types of backup:

    Sorry you lost your stuff. Hope then next update goes better for you!
    Best of luck,

  • My iphone is not working at all its completely off and wont turn on.

    my iphone 4s is not working at all it is completely off and wont turn on, what should I do?

    No, I haven't learned anything more.  It doesn't happen to me enough to warrant trying to swap it out for a new one, though I have discussed the possiblity with the folks I bought it from.  They are not big-volume Apple sellers but I was the first to complain to them about this problem.  Hasn't happened to me in over a month.  Some people are convinced it's a problem with the phone, not the software and therefore not fixable, but I suspect there is more than one reason it can happen.  I'm hoping my problem is cured, fingers crossed and all that.  Good luck, glad my post helped you.

  • Reminders not working at all on ios 7

    I have done a soft reset, full restore and even setting up the phone as new after doing so and not backing up from a previous point and I still can't get reminders to work.
    I can tap anywhere on the screen and nothing comes up.
    When I use Siri I can say "Remind me I have a Dr appointment tomorrow at 11:00am" Siri comes right back and has everything on the screen correct and asks if it should be created and when I answer yes, Siri comes back and says it can't be created.  Even if I tap on the "confirm" button it still says it can't be created.
    I have tried every tip I have read on here and nothing is working at all for reminders. Any suggestions?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:

    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             

  • My itunes and iphone are not working together. all my software is up to date. what i can do? i need to manage my phone!!

    I'm getting extremely frustrated with my iphone and mac.
    i have the iphone 4, and the mac is leopard.
    I plugged my phone it to manage my music, and a message popped up saying i needed software 10.6.8 or higher.
    so i downloaded the 10.7. it's still not working!
    i have very little space left on my phone and i need to manage everything.
    what do i do??
    someone please help!!!!

    We need clarification here.
    Please don't just state version numbers, also state which software.  iTunes 10.7 requires OSX 10.6.8 or higher.  Leopard is OSX 10.5.8.  You have two alternatives right now.  One is to stay with Leopard for a while (ultimately you should upgrade) and install iTunes 10.6.3 which is the last version to work with Leopard.  This should work with iOS6 on an iPhone4.  The other is to call Apple and order OSX 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and upgrade the computer to 10.6.8 which will allow you to run iTunes 10.7.  The caveat is we know nothing about which computer you run and if it even can run any system higher than Leopard.
    Here is iTunes 10.6.3
    iTunes 10.6.3 - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1575
    If you want to try upgrading:
    Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About this Mac" and "More Info..."  Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present).  If it says something about Intel or Core Duo or Core 2 Duo in the processor you can upgrade to Snow Leopard (assuming you have sufficient RAM/"memory").  If it says PPC or PowerMac, you cannot.
    Kappy 08/2012 post on upgrading to Snow Leopard, then Lion or Mountain Lion -  https://discussions.apple.com/message/19401628 - including how to get Snow Leopard and Lion since Apple removed them from the online store. 
    It would help when posting issues here if you would state exact error messages you see.  "It's still not working!" while a description of the situation does not speed us to a diagnosis of the underlying issue.

  • IPhone Bluetooth not working after upgrading to iOS 6.1.2

    I used to pair my iPhone with my Blue&Me system in my Fiat Car and it was working perfectly hitherto. Recently I have been experiencing problems with Pairing my phone with my car Bluetooth system (Which I sometimes use for receiving calls).. The phone though identifies the car system in the discovery mode but is not able to pair  and establish connection. My car Bluetooth system is working just fine with other phones. Request apple / or anyone who can help to help me overcome this issue. My car system is as important to me as iPhone and if this problem persists, i may be forced to change my phone.

    In the 4+ years of using iPhone and several other apple products, this is the first time that I am feeling frustrated with my iPhone 4S and Apple. I am surprised that so many people around the world are facing the problem with their blue tooth devices after upgrading the iOS and still there is no hope of having this situation resolved. The cause of breakage of communication between iPhone (my investment, my ownership) and other devices is of apple origin and apple can't walk away by suggesting that the other party should upgrade the Bluetooth Firmware.
    In my case, My iPhone 4S stopped paring with My Fiat car blue&me system after updating to iOS 6.1.2. The problem has not been solved in iOS 6.1.3.
    If this problem is not solved in next update the ovious solution is to move to android as I can change my phone but I can't change my car that eaisly.

  • My Iphone is not working at all

    I droped my iphone in the toliet and now its not tuning on or nothing

    Unless you purchased Apple Care + (only available for iPhone 4S) or some 3rd party accidental damage insurance, then you will most likely need to buy a new iPhone. The warranty does not cover accidents.
    You can try to resurrect the phone buy burying it in a bag of rice for a week and hope that the rice draws out all of the water and that after it has dried out it will work.

  • My touch screen on my iPhone 4S not working after upgrading to ios 7?

    I upgraded to iOS 7 and all the sudden when I go to type in my code to unlock my phone it is really laggy, when I finally get into my phone and go to use the keyboard to type a message it acts like I haven't even touched the screen when I go to type.

    Unfortunately with all of the problems and such an unstable OS today is my last day using my iPhone. I love my phone and have had it on my company business account for the last 4 years but it has become so prohibitive to use as a business tool I am forced to move to the company’s Galaxy based phone. I hope at some point in the future things will improve and I can once again have my iPhone back on the company plan.  Good luck all I will be rooting for you.

  • IPhone 5 not working at all

    So I woke up in the morning today, detached my phone which was connected to a Bose Sound Dock II using an original Apple 30-Pin to Lightning connecter. I checked my notifications, replied to some messages on Whatsapp, GTalk, Snapchat and then unplugged the 30-Pin to Lightning connector as got out of bed. I walked a few steps and tried bring up the lockscreen to check the time by pressing the home button (because my Sleep/Power button is broken) and nothing happened. I can't remember how much battery it had actually but I'm sure it had enough to stay on for like half a day. I'm sure its not overheated too. I tried plugging it to charge (because that how I turn my phone on since the Sleep/Power button isn't working) but it didn't show the Apple logo or low battery icon or anything. It didn't even vibrate when I plugged it in with silent mode on. And no sound when I plugged it with silent mode turned off. However I tried calling my phone to check whether its turned on and the telephone operator didn't say that "the phone is switched off or not in a service area" but there was no activity on the phone at all. I need a response for this ASAP. Please!
    Thank you.

    There are no magic words that will overcome broken hardware. Make an appointment at the genius bar and get it fixed.

  • IPhone 4s not working at all, HELP!

    Hi,
    I am fixing an iphone 4s (32 gb sprint) its out of warrenty and it just stoped working i replaced the dock connecter and battery and nothing happend [and i charged it for 20 mins]..... I just hope its not a logic board failure... anyone have an idea what can I do, Thanks!

    Try to charge for longer than 20 minutes with the charger/cable it came with from a wall outlet. If nothing then try a hard reset (Home key + power for 30 seconds).  If the device still will not turn on then take out the replacement parts, install the original parts, call AppleCare and get it replaced for $199 with a new unit.  Then go back and either return/sell the parts you used in an attempt to fix the device but instead destroyed even further.
