LG G3 Reception problems caused by case and holding the phone

I was up in Vermont and checked the AT&T map and noticed the area I was headed to showed 4G service. We got there and the kids (with their IPhones) showed 1 or 2 bars and I didn't have any service at all. After trying everything under the sun I decided to try it with no case and the phone in the cupholder of my chair. Unbelieveably that did the trick. So there is interference from your hand as well as the case. My question is, is there a case or method where I could help this going forward. Kind of hard to use the phone without holding it in your hand. :-) Anyone else see this as well?

I have been having issues with my reception also. It seems like ever since I put a case on my phone I almost never have more than 2 bars and everybody I talk to says they can hardly hear me. I have also been dropping a lot of calls. Im going to take the case off for a bit to see if it improves. I've never had an issue where I live and almost always had full 5 bars of service. The only reason I put a case on the phone is because I some home got a hairline crack on the phone right next to the IR blaster and LG pretty much said too bad even though the phone is less than 2 months old and in other wise pristine condition.

Problem caused by ACPI IRQ Holder

I got another BSOD (they seem to come periodically on my X61), this time caused by the ACPI IRQ Holder. It is supposedly incompatible with my Vista Business SP1 (all updates installed). Anybody know what this holder is? How to solve this problem?
Here's the Windows error message:
Problem caused by ACPI IRQ Holder
This problem was caused by a compatibility issue between this version of Windows and ACPI IRQ Holder.
This product is usually distributed by the company that manufactured your device or computer.
Note
If you bought ACPI IRQ Holder from a retailer and installed it yourself, you will need to contact its manufacturer.
Recommendation
To find out if a solution or an updated version of ACPI IRQ Holder is available, contact your device or computer manufacturer.

God i wish that were the case! I run the laptop in High Performance ALL the time, regardless of being connected to power supply or not. As i need all the power i can get for graphics etc.
I know for sure that the spikes are caused by the acpi.sys as it has been discussed on many other digital DJing/music production forums (and the spikes disapear when its disabled). Apparently the problem is caused because the sound card is allowed to share
IRQ's with other USB devices, (this is why people have suggested running windows with acpi disabled so a different IRQ can be assigned to each device, bear in mind im not THAT knowledgeable about the inner workings of a computer so dont know if this
is true).
This is something that im surprised hasnt been brought up before on these forums to be honest! I would have thought its a problem which has roots deep in the inner workings of the computer and im sure theres no solution but its worth a try!

I cannot shut dow my MacBook Pro using the apple icon (as it was suppose to be), actually I have to press and hold the on/off buttom. I have taken twice for Mac dealer and they did not solve the problem. What must I do?

Since then I have facing this troublesome issue. Thanks

Uninstall the other AV software. They are not needed. All they do is cause trouble like you are having now.
If you have been forcing the Mac to shut down with the power switch you may nave corrupted your disk. You should repair it with disk Utilty to remove any corruption the shutdwons may have cased.

You can try putting the iPhone into DFU mode and see if that will let you restore and remove the jailbreak:
http://osxdaily.com/2010/06/24/iphone-dfu-mode-explained-and-how-to-enter-dfu-mo de-on-your-iphone/
Some jailbreaks cannot be removed and in some cases will permanently disable your iPhone. If that happens to you, then you will have to buy a new iPhone; Apple will provide no support, warranty or out-of-warranty, for a jailbroken iPhone.
You're on your own from here. We can provide no further help with a jailbroken iPhone in these forums.
Good luck.

I am having the problem when trying to take a panorama picture. It may only take the first frame or doesn't even start at all when I press the shutter button. even though when i hold the phone straight up and down, so that camera is at the top

I am having the problem when trying to take a panorama picture.
It may only take the first frame or doesn't even start at all when I press the shutter button.
even though when i hold the phone straight up and down, so that camera is at the top on the back and the home button is on the bottom on the front.
This problem is irritating me....?

To take panorama
- ensure that the panorama option is on
- press the shutter button once
- you will see a line with an arrow
- move around in a circle ( I keep the camera steady and turn myself around in a circle)
- as you do this you will see the arrow moving across the screen as it captures pictures
- at the end of the capture, you will be able to see your panorama picture
I hope that this helps, do report back.

I bought an iphone 4s factory unlocked. Can i set it up with my sim card in canada then take it out and bring the phone to iran without any problems?

A legitimately unlocked iPhone should work with any compatible 3G GSM carrier. The iPhone, however, is considered 'restricted technology, and cannot be legally taken to Iran.

my iphone 5's screen blacks out every now and then. the phone is turned on but the screen is black and i can receive calls. what is wrong with my phone?

I have to believe this has something to do with iOS 7 issues. I have taken my screen blacked out 5s twice to the Genius Bar and the found a bunch of system apps had crashed. So if this is the case, is iOS7 the problem?

I used to be able to get ö by pressing and holding the o key.

Maverick version OS X 10.9.4 (13E28)
Up until this morning, 16 Sept, on any word processor (Pages, Word for Mac, PlainText, Notes) I could access European alternatives to each of the vowels of the alphabet by pressing and holding the letter key.
Now all I get is a repeat of the letter.
The question is: how do I return to the pre Sept 16 situation?

Thank you all for your responses.
I am most definitely the non-technical user compared to you guys. I’m never going to be in the position of responding with confidence to anyone requesting help in this forums; you folk may therefore have this information at your finger-tips.
One of the best features of mac os x that I discovered only purchasing the iMac in 2013 was feature that by pressing and holding down a letter key a list of alternative language options appears. This feature disappeared on Sept 16. At the same time the outcomes of pressing and holding a combination of keys (most used Shift + Down Arrow) or a single key also disappeared. The most obvious of the single key outcomes was the continuous movement of the cursor along a line when Left or Right arrow was pressed and held down.
Initially, the replacement outcome was if I pressed and held a letter key I simply got multiple repetitions of the same letter. Not finding my problem in the support forums I posed the initial problem.
While this solved the problems of multiple repetitions it did not solve anything else.
I finally sought help from Apple Support Chat over a 36 hour period.
1st senior supervisor & 1st Solution
2nd senior supervisor confirms 2nd solution (and confirms if 2nd solution does not work there is a 3rd solution).
These two senior supervisors were intrigued by the problem and both shared the same view of problem and the same solution.
PROBLEM - there is no location within Mavericks OS X that enables anyone to either switch-on or switch-off the outcomes of pressing and holding a key or a combination of keys. Consequently there is no easy quick fix.
Since neither senior supervisor had, previously, been faced with this particular problem they could only project ideas for causes, software incompatibility or a serious hardware problem, which could only be fully resolved by returning my iMac to Apple ReSeller (3rd solution). Having no desire to entrust my iMac to the slightly dubious Estonian postal service, doing this would require two return journeys (taking and collecting 10 days later) involving 4x6 hours of motorway driving plus a 4x3 hour ferry and costs in excess of €350.
SOLUTION - 3 were suggested to be tried in sequence if the first did not work. Reinstall Mavericks using instructions found at http://support.apple.com/kb/ph13871; (ii) Erase and Install Mavericks using instructions found at http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14243 and (iii) return to Reseller.
As had no effect, I attempted (ii) which involved a lot of hassle, but has returned all the functions of the keys.
The downside is that I still don’t know what caused the problem. The only app I downloaded to the iMac on the September 15th was a Garmin Fitness app. “Once bitten twice shy” I shall download the Garmin Fitness app to my Airbook and will keep you folks informed…….

My iphone was unlocked to any network when i bought it, it is a 3gs i done the latesst update by accident and now the phone says the activation server is temporarily unavailable

i bougt my son a unlocked iphone 3gs for xmas, i have accidently done the latest update and now the phone is saying no servive can anyone help,
thanks

Generally this is a sign that the iPhone had previously been
hacked/modified/jailbroken and the update relocked it to the
original wireless carrier. If this is the case, only that wireless
carrier can unlock your iPhone. You must contact them to see
if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
Where did you acquire this iPhone?
What wireless carrier did you use before this problem?
Does the app Cydia appear on your iPhone?
What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>About=>Carrier?

TS3694 I performed an iOS 7 software update on my iPhone yesterday, and now the phone is not working at all. The iPhone screen shows to connect to iTunes to restore. I've have done this, and still the iPhone is not working. What going on?

I have no idea what may have caused your MacBook to stop working, but from your description it kind of sounds like it may have started before you ran Software Update and installed the new Apps. Just the general slow feeling and bugginess is what tips me off. You said that you weren't sure if you had closed all open windows, that doesn't matter if the computer restarts itself. It automatically closes all other open applications when restarting.
As to your data being retrievable, if when you take it in they do a fresh install of the OS, then no, it will not be unless you want to pay several thousand dollars to a software retrieval company.
I am glad to hear that you have taken into the Apple Store to get it fixed, and that you have all of your purchased music backed up to your iPod. You should be able to just transfer it all back to iTunes once you get your computer back should it be necessary.
As a side note, the proper place for this topic would probably in the MacBook forums, not iTunes since there is no evidence that iTunes started the issue.

My i Phone drops WiFi connection after just a few minutes and wont reconnect unless I reset the network settings and reboot the phone?

My i Phone 4s has suddenly started to drop wifi connection after nealy months of near perfect connections?
To restore a wifi connection I have to reset the network settings and restart the phone, this only fixes the issues for around 2-3 mins?
Other quick fixes like switching wifi on and off/ switching to airoplane mode for a few secconds have no impact.
This is really annoying as I am using my data allowence very quickly, and as the phone is continually searching for a wifi connection the battery time has reduced dramatically.
I just wondered if any one else has the same issue, and any suggestions as to how I can fix this.
Thanks in Advance

Reboot.
Restore (from backup)
Restore (as new)
Test after each step. If one of them doesn't fix the problem, make an appointment at the genius bar.

I don't have very much space left on my iCloud backup. I had a previous iPhone, my current iPhone and my iPad that are all connected to one cloud. Can I delete the backup from my previous iPhone? Will it delete in the cloud AND on the phone?

I had a previous iPhone, my current iPhone and my iPad that are all connected to one cloud. Can I delete the backup from my previous iPhone? Will it delete in the cloud AND on the phone? or does it just delete from iCloud? or does it just delete from the phone? Someone please help!

You can delete the backup without any problem. Only the backup will be deleted from iCloud and nothing else will be deleted, so you can do it without worrying about losing data on iCloud or your devices

If you successfully restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem. Could be the screen or something else.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..
