IPhone, can not get it out of Auto-lock

On occasions once my 3g Iphone has gone into autolock I am unable to use the phone again. I can not get it out of auto lock, I have tried restarting but it maskes no difference.
I often have to ring it from another phone to bring the Iphone back to life, which is rather annoying and I am not always by another avaliable phone.
Does anyone else have this problem, or know how to fix this? Thanks

Have you tried reset (page 34 of the manual)?
Restore - page 141?

    Backing up an iOS device will copy some data to a backup file within iTunes, but this excludes all media.  You can also transfer iTunes Store purchases from the iDevice to iTunes but, without using a third-party tool, nothing else.  As long as you do not sync the iPod with your new library, the media that's on it will remain ... for as long as it keeps functioning, is not lost, stolen, eaten by the dog, ...
    You may also have an option to recover your previous library from your old laptop; as long as its hard drive isn't fried, a computer repair store or technician may be able to extract the drive, mount it in an external enclosure, and copy your data to another PC.  Whatever you choose, there is no real alternative to having all your media on your computer, managed by iTunes, and regularly backed up to another device/location.

  • My iphone can not get in touch with the server. What can I do?

    My Iphone can not get in touch with the server, when I am trying to accept terms and conditions. What can I do?

    Possible causes:
    1. Your antivirus is blocking access to gs.apple.com.
    2. Your phone is jailbroken.
    3. Your computer has been used at some time in the past to jaibreak some iOS device (not necessarily the phone with the problem), and its network database was corrupted by the hacking software that was used.
    4. Apple's activation servers are down (very rare, and never for more than an hour or so).
    For 1. try disabling your antivirus.
    For 2. & 3. you need to go somewhere other than an apple forum for help. Although you can try deleting lines containing gs.apple.com from your "hosts" file on your computer.

  • HT201210 can not get iphone4s out of recovery  mode.  it keeps saying an unknown error occurred.

    I installed the latest upgrade on my Iphone4s now it wont turn on, and will not work.  the screen on my phone show a picture of a plug, i plug into the computer, itunes comes up and it says phone is in recovery zone. then it says an error has occurred.  i just want to get my phone to turn back on and work, can anyone help or have any suggetions of what to do.  The people working in our local AT&T store are so unhelpful and lazy!

    That usually indicates a hardware failure. If you can return it and get your money back, do so. Otherwise, make an appointment at the genius bar and get the phone replaced or buy a new one.

  • Can not get disc out of drive

    I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on my 2.66 GHz i7 MBP and I put a disk in the drive and it never showed up on the desktop and I am unable to eject it. I tried rebooting though it still does not show up and when I hit the eject button nothing happens.
    What can I do?
    Thanks!

    1. Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the left mouse button until the disc ejects.
    2. Press the Eject button on your keyboard.
    3. Click on the Eject button in the menubar.

    5. If none of the above work try this: Open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder. At the prompt enter or paste the following:

    If this fails then try this:
    Boot the computer into Single-user Mode. At the prompt enter the same command as used above. To restart the computer enter "reboot" at the prompt without quotes.

  • Can not get the high resolution photo from iCloud on the iPhone5s, unless re-share the photo to the iCloud.

    after restoring the iPhone, the iPhone can not get the high resolution photo from album of iCloud, unless re-share all the photo to the iCloud.

    If you plug up both to computer, open itunes, click "back up to computer" on both (not necessary for the one that's being transferred to) then on the one that's sending data click "back up" in the iTunes menu. It will then back up (if not already done in sync). Now plug up the second one (being transferred to) and on the iTunes menu, click "restore from backup" then choose the device you just backed up, and click "ok" or what it says.
    Hope this helped
    P.S. I am referencing to using iTunes <11. Some features I show here might not be available in iTunes 10

  • IOS5.0.1 constant error "iPhone can not make or receive calls.  Restore from iTunes":  I get this message and the phone will no longer work (happend once while on airplain mode and now once while in wifi only area, out of cell range).  help!

    All- I get this message ("iPhone can not make or receive calls. Restore from iTunes" (happend once while on airplain mode and now once while in wifi only area, out of cell range)). iPhone 4.  Newest OS.  Never happened with old OS! Cycling phone on/off does not help.  Ignoring message causes phone to cycle off then on.  After first time this happened, I restored.  Six days later...same problem!  Clearly a new fix is necessary.  Suggestions? 

    I have not tried that...I will look up the process so that I can do it correctly (and still transfer all of my files, contacts, etc).  Any suggestions?  What is the advantage of restoring as a new device..is this more akin to a complete wipe of a hard drive?
