IPhone Problem Since Updating to 4

I bought my iPhone 3G last September in Dublin, Ireland and ever since the OS update to OS4 came out I have had nothing but problems with my phone. Any time I enter into any application such as messaging, settings, email etc. I am lucky to be able to use it for more then a few seconds before it crashes and the screen goes black before returning to the main screen for apps. It seems clear to me that the processor simply can't handle OS4. I have tried all the basic steps that I have found online.
This phone is less then a year old so there is still a warranty on it. It appears that there are two solutions I have open to me. 1. Apple tell me how to Downgrade to OS 3.1.3 or below. 2. Apple provide me with a new iPhone capable of handling OS4.
Can anybody please help me with this?

i'm afraid i seem to have the same problem & ive got the 3GS fone, so it seems that none of the fones can cope with it, ive heard that even the 4g is having problems too, so if i was you i'd buy an android. i wished i had done now.

  • Anyone else had issues with phone network being unavailable on iPhone 4 since updating to iOS 5.0.1? My iPhone 4 is continually searching for a network and does not find my provider. I swapped SIMs with another iPhone 4 on ios 4 to confirm device problem.

    Has anyone else had issues with phone network being unavailable on iPhone 4 since updating to iOS 5.0.1? My iPhone 4 is continually searching for a network and does not find AT&T, my provider. I swapped SIM cards with another iPhone 4 running ios 4 and established this is a device problem, not a SIM card problem.

    Does the device get any signal? 
    Sounds like the device may have had a hardware failure.  If it is out of warranty, the only option is the Out of Warranty replacement.
    AppleCare is only an option if it is still under the original warranty.

  • Problems since updating to iOS 7.

    Hi everyone ! I got some problems since updating to iOS 7.My first problem is that my computer can't detect the photos from my iPhone 4.My second problem is that when I watch a video on Youtube or Facebook it keeps stopping for some seconds and then it plays normaly like it should.The third problem is that some apps change their look sometimes.What I mean is that the Calendar app sometimes takes a look from another app on the other page.So the calendar app sometimes looks like Minion Rush app.The calendar app isn't the only one app which does that.The fourth problem is that sometimes I can't acces the first page.My phone sometimes crashes when I try to swip to the first page.Does anyone has a solution for this or I will have to wait until next update in which they will maybe fix it ?

    reset all settings
    settings- general- reset - reset all settings

    settings - wifi- click network name - enter password - join

  • Cant sync my iphone 4s since updating to itunes 11?

    cant sync my iphone 4s since updating to itunes 11 - any suggestions?

    Thanks for your message.
    I have downloaded the latest iTunes [11.1.5 (5)] with no luck, unfortunately. As it did with 11.1.4 (62), iTunes recognizes my iPhone, I can select the music to sync, click sync, it appears to sync but remains completely unchanged in my iPhone music.
    Any tips are welcome!

  • Iphone 4 bluetooth connectivity problems since updating to ios 5.01

    My wife and I both have an Iphone 4 through verizon.  I updated my ios to 5.01.  Hers is still 4.3.10.  Since updating mine the bluetooth feature have gone crazy.  When I get in my truck (2008 Nissan Frontier) it just continually connects and disconnects with the built in blue tooth system in that vehicle.  I cannot make or take a call on the system it just keeps dropping the connection then re-connecting.  Funny thing is my wife's phone doesn't have this problem.  It connects and functions normally.
    I wanted to just roll back ios 5.0.1 but I've found out you aren't allowed to do that.  Nissan has no updates for their bluetooth system either.
    I have gone the extreme of completely wiping out my iphone and re-installing everything fresh and that has done nothing.  I have also tried completely deleting all the phone saved in the truck's system and re-setting them up and that too has done nothing to fix the problem.
    Anyone have a suggestion?  I have to think that there is something in ios 5.0.1 that is messed up with bluetooth.

    Interesting discussion. I too am having connection issues with an original iPad. I have an olde' linksys wrt54gs router with a Linksys RE1000 wireless extender (repeater). I can connect to the router just fine when I'm in range but can't use the repeater signal on this iPad only. Even when I'm right on top of it. One thing that may have helped is changing from WPA2 to simple WPA encryption in the routers settings. So far (crosses fingers), it's working ok.

  • Iphone ios 6.1.3 wifi bluetooth problem since update

    Hi,
    It seems that Apple has a problem with the Iphone 4s IOS update 6.1.3.
    Since i updated my Wifi and Bluetooth on my phone have fallen over / failed.
    wifi is unable to be switched from off to on (greyed out)
    Bluetooth will not turnon either just icon circling around.
    After looking at some of the meesages on he it would seem that the update has damage the phone???
    I have backed up, removed all settings, restored the phone but no joy.
    I will try putting the phone in the freezer, yes this has been suggested as a fix.
    Failing that i will have to return the Phone the Vodafone /Apple for them to sort.
    Not very happy at all.
    Apple please sort this issue, and quick!!!

    Same problem. I've tried the apple support site recommendations... reset network settings etc. No result. The problem is that there is no place to enter the needed pin code any more. The dialog box needed for that is completely absent. And on top of that if you actually want to communicate with a tech support person (for a problem caused by Apple programming to begin with) you will actually have to pay for said support first. I have to say that Apple is feeling more like Microsoft all the time. A company I avoid like the plague because of experiences like this that I have had to suffer over and over again. To bad. Apple was a really great company. A really great movement in the tech world at one time. No more though. Time to quit beating a dead horse with a stick and switch to Samsung I guess. That means getting rid of all my apple laptops and desktops too I guess. What a bummer!

  • Mail Problems since updating to Maverick 10.9.1

    My Macmail on all my Apple devices no longer works since updating yesterday to Maverick 10.9.1. I have restarted, deactivated and reinstalled gmail via Macmail on all my devices (Macbook Pro, iPod 5, iPad and iPhone 5s). On my mobile devices the "Checking for mail wheel" just keeps spinning and spinning. On my Macbook I can't even get through the initial sign-in stage before an "unknown error" pops up. I have enadbled via Gmail the IMAP and POP. Nothing works. Anyone have a similar problem, hear anything about this problem or have a fix? Thanks for your help!

  • Have anyone been having messaging problems since updating to iOS 6?

    Since updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 6 i could no longer send pictures to those who did not have an iPhone. Also I can only send pictures to other iPhone users thru iMessage. Another thing, when my iMessage is turned on it send iMessage text from my email address (Apple ID) instead of from my phone number.

    Apple are working on it, many people have been having this probleme mainly on 4 an 4s. All you can do is wait for an upgrade, check this link for better battery life http://www.apple.com/batteries/iphone.html or pick up a mophie juice pack.

  • Can't activate Iphone 4 since updating to IOS 7.1.1 yesterday

    I've had this iphone 4 since december 2013. It was a gift from a relative in Japan. Since factory unlocking it costs way too much, i decided to just use it as an ipod. I've been using it since then to browse the web, watch videos on youtube, etc with no problem. Updating it to newer ios versions was pretty easy too, i never had to use my pc and could just update it through just the phone alone until yesterday when my iphone said that there's a newer version of ios available which was iso 7.1.1 i was already on ios 7 , so i updated but after updating, the itunes logo appeared and said i needed to connect the phone  to itunes and restore it before i can use it. it was the first time i ever had to do that, so i did. After connecting it to itunes, itunes downloaded the newest software, i waite dfor two hours and after installing the new software, it told me to restore the iphone, i did and i thought everything was fine again but after the iphone screen turned on, it told me to do the basic set up such as the language, wifi connection, and then said that i needed a sim to activate it. i never needed s sim ever since the iphone was given to me why does it require it now?? i was so ****** cause the phone's from softbank japan, how could i possibly get a sim card from them here. My iphone isn't  unlocked, jailbroken, etc, i never had it modified whatsoever so why is it acting up now? how can i fix this? i coudn't get thtough the sim activation screen and when i connect it to itunes it either tells me to restore it again or shows me a screen that the phone is not activated and needs a sim or something along that line.
    Sorry for the lengthy post. How can i fix this? Thanks!

    Thanks for replying. I remembered that there was a used softbank regular sized simcard in the box, we tried it before in a iphone 3gs also from softbank it didn't work. I cut it to a micro sim ,(i googled on how to do it), and still didn't work on my iphone4. i guess the simcard isn't working anymore and i need a new one that actually works. Well off to searching i go!
