IPhone Message "Slide For Emergency" - Please HELP

I got my new iPhone the other day!! It was working fine until I updated it...
When i updated it, i turned the phone on and how it is saying "Slide For Emergency" in different languages!!! It wont let me do anything exept from dialing an emergency number.....
Please Help

Your iPhone has updated and is waiting for you to validate the AT&T account it is supposed to be registered with.
If you hacked it to work with other networks, then you modified the software in violation of the license agreement for your iphone.
One of the downsides to hacking an iphone is you can't update it the normal way afterwards.

  • I updated my iPhone 3G today and after the update it said on iTunes that my sim was not compatible and my iPhone screen went on to slide for emergency/connect to itunes. Ive tried restoring it but it hasnt worked. Please help!

    Unless the iPhone was purchased  as unlocked very recently directly from an Apple Store (the only place in the US where unlocked iPhones are sold, and then only since June), which from the symptoms I doubt is the case, then it was locked to AT&T and jailbroken to make it work with an Irish cell carrier. Updating the operating system has now relocked the iPhone back to AT&T.
    Only the cell carrier can institute an official unlock, one which will hold across updates of the operating system, and AT&T will not do so for any reason. All we can advise here is that you return the iPhone to your uncle and purchase an iPhone there in Ireland.
    Regards.

  • IPhone 2G - Stuck on Connect To iTunes/Slide for Emergency

    I was going back to my original iphone 2g where I'm stuck on "Connect To iTunes/Slide for Emergency" screen.
    This is not a jailbreak phone as it was working phone until I choose an upgrade and went back to orignal iphone. I was told at AT&T store I have to activate with iTunes. With latest version of iTunes, I get connection time out error[no error code] on connecting to iTunes store after activation is complete. I get an email from apple my phone is activated, but I still see Connect To iTunes... As soon as I plug-in the iPhone I get connection time out error.
    Per AT&T everything provisioned as per my account and even they put the sim in a diff phone and it works. Thouhgt I could try with old version on iTunes and got atleast a stage I can see everything [Name, Capacity, Software Version and Serial Number] in ituens. This is with ituens version 9.1. But I still see Connect To iTunes... As I run diagnostics from itunes I see that orange for 'No iPhone or iPod found' under 'Ports'. Interstingly, if I take out the SIM, I can see everything [including my screenshot] and I can browse using Wi-Fi but no calls as there is no SIM. This is sixth day that I dont have working phone and still counting... 
    Since I dont have a back up and not sure how best I can bring my phone back online without restore. Plz help.

    This has been taken care by sr advisor at apple.
    The problem seems to be an issue as the apple server does not know my iphone at all based on the serial number. They manually updated the s/n and sim on their servers and I dont see connect to itunes window anymore by connecting to iTunes and phone is back online without any restore.
    Per my understanding I should get an email as it updates the content on the servers, but I never got one and ended up calling again after 48hrs. Then I was told you should be good, goahed and connect to iTunes, ofcourse I was also told if that does not work you have to try restoring.. scary!!
    Now, I'm back on searching to upgrade my phone
    Happy Thanksgiving.

    After searching, found a few answers and tried one last thing-- allowing Safari to accept Cookies. I never use Safari so never changed any settings in it ever. However, I guess an update along the way turned off cookies in it and that was the blockage. Once I allowed Safari to use cookies I was able to redeem the gift card. SO, glad this board is here for these types of questions!!!!

  • Brand new iPhone 3GS 32GB, put sim card in, turned on, Slide for Emergency.

    I just bought an iPhone 3GS with 32GB black, I used the pin to eject the sim card socket, and put the sim card in.then i pressed the silver power button at the top right corner for 3 seconds, it turned on with the gray apple. Then it comes to "Slide for emergency" with this itunes icon.
    Now what do I do?

    Ok seems to work. Thanks very much. Connecting to iTunes solved the problem. I presume I was one of the few cases where the iPhone didn't work without being hooked up to a computer first.
    (I had read reports about this happening to people after they had upgraded, or 'jailbroke' their phone, but since I had done neither of these things, I was worried)
    All iPhones have to be activated through iTunes. Usually it is done at the store when you buy it.

  • Updated 4.0, stuck on "slide for emergency"

    Everything updated pretty quick, and I went to turn it on and now I get this "slide for emergency" message, anyone know what to do?
    iTunes won't recognize it, I get this error message:
    "iTunes could not connect to this iPhone because an unknown error occurred (0xE8000065)."
    So I can't restore to the backup I did before I updated.
    Tried restarting iTunes. And no this isn't a jailbroke phone. It's straight from Apple/AT&T.
    I've tried restarting the phone by holding both home button and power button. Still frozen.
    Please help!

    To put the iPhone into DFU or recovery mode:
    1. Connect your iPhone to your PC.
    2. Open the iTunes application.
    3. Hold down the top button on your iPhone and the circle home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds.
    4. After exactly 10 seconds release the Sleep/Wake button. Continue holding the home button until you iTunes pops up a message telling you that it has detected an iPhone in recovery mode.:
    "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes"
    5. Just click OK. Your iPhone screen will be black as well.

  • IPhone unplugged during Restore Process, PLEASE HELP Restore!

    Hi guys,
    I was Restoring my original iPhone through iTunes and during this process my brother unplugged
    the iphone from iTunes.
    Now, I've been trying to restore again but the iTunes has prompted a little window that says
    "Waiting for iPhone". I left it plugged in all night with iTunes on my Mac but it's stuck on that same
    message.
    Can someone please help me with this issue?
    Thanks so much,
    Z

    Try placing your iPhone in recovery mode.
    Turn off your iPhone by holding the "Sleep/Wake" button for about five seconds and then sliding the red slider. If your iPhone is already off, there's no need to turn it on and then off again.
    Once it's turned off, press and hold the "Home" button and plug the iPhone into your Mac.Keep holding the "Home" button until you see a dock cable pointing to the iTunes icon. iPhones running older software will display a yellow triangle and text which says "Please Connect to iTunes". You can now release the Home button.
    Open iTunes (if it's not already open) and you will be told that "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode". Click "OK" and you will be taken to the iPhone pane. Click restore.

  • Slide for emergency

    My iphone is stuck at slide for emergency though it was working till date. I bought this Officially unlocked iphone from UK and I am in India for last one year. It was working fine and today it stopped working.
    Error message displayed:
    There is a problem with your IPhone
    We are sorry the iphone you connected is not recognized and cannot be activated for services. We recommend you visit your nearest Apple Store for more information.
    I have tried DFU 3-4 times but of no use.
    Can you please guide me as phone is bricked.

    You say you bought 'Officially unlocked iphone from UK'.
    Where did you buy it and who unlocked it ? I ask as we have about one person a day here saying they have an officially unlocked iPhone bought in the UK which turns out not to be from the UK at all.
    Its probably awaiting a valid SIM card from the original country and being activated with account details, which you would not get unless you had it on its original network.

  • Slide for Emergency - Stuck on Lock Screen

    Recently on my new iPhone 6,  I noticed that the battery percentage was not going down with the use of my device.  I held the lock button to power off, and I turned the phone back on.  When I saw the lock screen,  the time was not being displayed and the "Slide to Unlock" prompt was changed to the "Slide for Emergency" prompt.  After sliding to input my passcode before Touch ID could work, my passcode would not allow me to access my phone and instead, my phone vibrated once and sent me back to the slide to unlock screen.  These screens seem to be very glitchy, often times not responding to wake button presses or home button presses.  The screen will also often go black for no reason.  My device is running iOS 8.1.2 without any jailbreaks. I've already tried turning it off and back on, and holding the lock and home buttons at the same time.
    Any help would be appreciated

    Try the following testing after each step
    - Reset the device. Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    - Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
    - Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    - Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    - Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

  • Hi I am in travel and I use from Iran operator. but my iphone is locked for it. please open it for me

    hi I am in travel and I use from Iran operator. but my iphone is locked for it. please open it for me or help me anyway can please

    Since the iPhone is not officially sold in Iran, & there are no supported carriers there, you couldn't have an iPhone locked to a carrier in Iran.
    At any rate, if you do have a carrier locked iPhone, you need to contact the carrier the phone is locked to to get it officially unlocked. No one here can help you, nor can/will Apple.

  • I deleted my microsoft office:mac 2011 word from my toolbar. I have Mac OS X version 10.6.8.  I tried to reinstall but it won't work. I get an error message each time. Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I deleted my microsoft office:mac 2011 word from my toolbar. I have Mac OS X version 10.6.8.  I tried to reinstall but it won't work. This has never happened before.  I get an error message each time. Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I don't have time machine. 

    By Toolbar, do you mean the Dock?  The Translucent bar normally at the bottom of the screen, but sometimes at the right or left side?
    If that's what you mean, the Dock is merely a shortcut to what is already inside the Applications folder's Microsoft Office 2011 folder.  If you have Word inside your Microsoft Office 2011 folder, you can drag it back to the Dock.
    If you deleted the Microsoft Office folder, or it is empty, you'll have to reinstall it. 
    If you don't have your registration code, you'll have to call Microsoft for a new one.
