Japanese iPhone shows AU and no service

Hi guys
my friend got a japanese iPhone and he is in China,yesterday his iphone has no service and shows AU in state bar,
it doesnt work now,anybody tells me what should i do?

iPhones from Japan are carrier locked and can not be legitimately unlocked. If your friend is attempting to roam using his Japanese carrier in China, he'll have to address the issue with his carrier. China is a big place... The roaming partner(s) may not have coverage where he is.
If he is trying to use a Chinese carrier on his Japanese phone... he can't do that.

  • Lightening cable iphone 5 shows peeling and the service provider says not covered under guarantee.I can see this is a clear case manufacturing defect.What is the remedy

    I find the lightening cable that came with the iphone 5 showing peeling of rubber .
    I had taken it to the local support (service point) who says it is not covered under warranty.
    As an engineer I can vouch that this is a clear case of material defect.
    What is my remedy

    I had taken the Iphone 5 with lightening cable under warranty to the service supporter here in Chennai India and after logging in the complaint the support engineer had informed me that the same claim was rejected.
    This happened a couple of months ago and now I find almost the entire cable has peeled off (Insulation).
    Initially I thought there perhaps was a chance for handling (carrying etc in your laptop bag) that could have caused the same.Now I am convinced that the material defect is the problem.
    Is there a way to bring this to the attention of Apple by email probably with a photo for them to appreciate my problem as the service support engineer authorised is unable to appreciate the problem.
    Thanks for your reply

  • What does 3 conversations on iphone mean? and "Wombat Service"? mean?

    I downloaded facebook to my iphone and lost all my data.  It then slowly came back except I lost all my phone/contacts.  Then my phone got disconnected.  My provider Optus re-connected my phone and don't know who or why it was disconnected.  I still have lost my contacts.  Now when I use another phone I get the msg that there are 3 on the conversation and also with my mobile number not displayed I get the number showing "Wombat Service"  what does this mean?  Is my phone being used by another person? and have they taken my contacts?  Not sure what is happening but my phone is playing tricks on me.  Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not send or receive msgs?  Could you please explain.  Thank you. Annie

    I'm sorry, but you're not making a whole lot of sense.

  • Iphone shows 1gb and itunes 3gb free space

    Why is that my iphone storage shows that I only have 1GB free but when I sync it through itunes shows that there's 3GB free space on my iphone. Where does the 2GB goes? Because I really need those 2GB space on my iphone cause the last update took a lot of space so I can't even download apps or keep my photos and keep deleting them Please help.

    Yes, I see the same thing with my iPhone 3GS running iOS 4.2.1 (also never jailbroken), although I’ve seen this for a while with previous iOS releases, maybe even before iTunes 10. I see variations anywhere from 500MB to 2GB or more during the sync.
    At the end of the sync, the amount of free space reported by iTunes matches what the iPhone says, but it’s still strange — is there space being taken up by something that could be freed up?

  • I broke my Iphone back case, and no service center in Indonesia

    Dear Apple Communities,
    I'm from Indonesia
    recently I just broke my Iphone 4 32Gb White Back Case
    dropped it accidentally
    just the back case, fortunately no other part broken
    and no authorized service center in Indonesia
    so I couldn't find any genuine spare parts
    I'm looking for the genuine back case, I can open the iphone back case myself thou
    but my question is, is it sold separately?
    since I have relative either from Singapore or Australia
    anyway to tell them to sold it separately for me?
    I mean like a code or official email from Apple itself
    so I have the proof, and can tell the authorized Apple store to sell it to my relative
    and they can bring it back when they visit me in Indonesia
    please help me, thx
    Why I'm looking for genuine apple parts?
    since the non-original one is making my camera blur all the time
    the surface also not the same
    and the white color is slightly different
    and I dont like it
    in short- the original one is the best
    so I need to get the original one desperately
    here's the condition
    miraculously the lens is okay no single scratch
    I'm only looking for the back case replacement, once again help me thx
    sorry for bad grammar

    sir, I know that XL and Telkomsel is the two authorized carriers
    mine is XL, they cannot fix my only back case
    the only deal they will help is only network connectivity
    Telkomsel also cannot
    in short neither one of them can provide me with genuine back case
    I've checked to the two of them
    I even went to the PT.Sinar Eka Selaras service center > Authorized distributor in Indonesia
    http://www.ptses.com/
    since this item is genuine from them
    and all they can provide me is : Replace whole iphone = buy the new one
    and as I told you there is really NO authorized service center in Indonesia
    you broke your phone a bit, buy a new one
    and I need only the back case
    that's why I'm asking whether apple service center in Australia or Singapore can sell it separately
    hope you understand now
    If one of the authorized carriage can help me, or the distributor can
    why should I seek help here?
    here's the deal that this is genuine 100% bought from authorized dealer in Indonesia
    Imporir Name: PT. SINAR EKA SELARAS
    Address:  Jl. Pakin Blok C Kav. No. 12, Komplek Mitra Bahari Kel. Penjaringan, Kec. Penjaringan Jakarta Utara

  • IPhone 4.0 and collaboration services

    Did anyone catch or read anything about the new iPhone OS 4 supporting CardDAV or true PUSH for email, cals, and cards?

    It amazes me how little love us Mac OS X Server Admins get from these iPhone/Mac events.
    I saw on the Apple website a reference or two about iCal being push - but that's what they said about mail the first time around also.
    Here's where I saw it. Not a mention about pushmail.. But Exchange is written in about every third word. Thanks Apple. Still making me spend $$$$$ on your competitor's production just to get the functions we should already have.

  • IPhone shows LTE and 4G, but internet not working ?

    I got a new iPhone 6 on Friday. After restoring my iPhone from my previous 4S backup (created Thursday before getting the new phone Friday) the phone was working great with the exception of the data. The text and phone calls are working fine. The strangest thing is that the phone says LTE or 4G (if I turn the LTE off), but the data is not working.
    Today, after resetting my network settings and getting a new SIM from AT&T I still couldn't get the data working. The only solution I've found was setting up my iPhone as new. When I setup the iPhone as new the data works perfectly fine.
    Is this a common issue? Any insight would be gladly appreciated!
    I'm on AT&T. iPhone 6 128GB, purchased from Apple.com.
    UPDATE: I found that yesterday my phones text messages were also not working when I was not connected to WiFi. I talked to an Apple rep yesterday as well and he said that if I set it up as a new phone and it was working then something is wrong with my backup.
    iPhone 6, iOS 8

    We went through the efelix help notes ((through a
    link someone posted already)) and already did the WEP
    security settings for XP.
    The efelix website is my website (it's a mirror of the ifelix website)
    The signal has been fading in and out. Is it possible
    that the PC is confused by a signal from the base
    station and a signal from the express?
    Yes this is possible when using WDS as the client connects to the main station and then connects to the remote.
    On the main base station turn off allow wireless clients to connect to this base station, so that clients only connect to the remote base station.

  • So I have an iPad 2 for two years. Has never been dropped or in water or damaged in any way....now the volume is distorted and I get booted off the web all the time. Plus it shows and no service in top left corner. Any one have these issues?

    So I got is iPad as a gift and the same issues I had with my iPhone 4S is also happening with my iPad. Will Apple cover the problem as it lies within there updates or something. All I know I have taken perfect care of both products and volume is distorted. Can't listen to music, I get booted off the web all the time, I can't even chat with Apple icare it won't work and no service shows on top left corner. What is wrong with Apple products? I'm thinking it's time to switch! I've had to change my iPhone twice now......first time for mic not working and then camera shutter kept sticking. Same on my iPad........ I don't want to pay to get this fixed as it's not my fault this is happening...... It's software apparently?

    This really is starting to feel like a hardware issue than a software one.
    Especially if hearing noises when you connecting up your iPad for charging.
    Something happened to your iPad that has nothing to do with a software update.
    This is why I recommend that
    I can't help you any farther.
    It sounds as if you really need to take this iPad in for a repair.
    Since you are reluctant to do this, there is nothing more I can suggest to you.
    Good Luck on whatever you decide to do.

  • Downloaded 8.1.3 and my 4s iPhone shows and iTunes logo and 30 pin connector

    I can't open my I phone 4s after the download.  I just get the screen with the iTunes logo and a 30 pin connected with an arrow pointing to the iTunes logo. I held down the button on top of the iPhone and the screen turns black.  The Apple logo shows up a few seconds later and then the screen goes black again. How can I get my backup out of the " cloud" so I can restart my I phone.  This happened several years ago with an up date.  I have a factory unlocked iPhone with t-mobile cellular. could this be the problem?  Before the update my iPhone showed "no service" for cell on the top left of my screen. My question is, will I have to reset to phone?

    The device is in Recovery mode. See this support document for instructions on how to handle that. If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
