My iPhone 4s touch screen will not work with an active SIM card in it.

A few months ago my touch screen stopped working suddenly on my iPhone 4s. After I removed my active SIM card from the 4s, the touch screen started working again. As soon as I put my SIM card in again, it stopped working. I finally broke down and took it into a store where they replaced the screen. It started working again for about 5 days. Then this morning it just quit working again. I have restarted it and reset it. All of the software was up to date when it stopped working, so I haven't done anything with that. Could someone please help me with this? It's getting a little frustrating.

Samsung S4 Will not work with ANGOLA (UNITEL) SIM Card

I have a Verizon Galaxy S4 that I cannot get to work with a local SIM card in ANGOLA. I was told my phone would work with an overseas sim card. I need HELP. My phone will not use an ANGOLA UNITEL sim card for data. I believe my phone is still locked. What can be done??? HELP

APN is what has to be changed. APN stands for Access Point Name.
If you search for Angola UNITEL APN you will find several sites on line with the correct information you need to enter.
You enter the details under more networks in the settings menu, just keep digging until you find APN.
You do not need a rooted phone and all global phones are already unlocked.
It is very easy to do and should not have been difficult but it was. Now that I know how, I hope others with similar problems will find this posting

My touch screen will not work at all. I cant even turn it off, so i dont know what do to?

My touch screen will not work.

Hey ajnissly25,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the touchscreen on the iPhone wont work. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

If you can't restart your device, reset it by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for a least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a great day,

Sounds like your phone was hacked to use with your carrier. Updating it has relocked the phone to it's original carrier. You will not get the phone working again without a SIM from the original carrier.

Hi,
ASUS does not make "Pavillion 23tm ", only HP. Anyway, hope no damage after a repair. Please try:

Otherwise, ask the repairer to fix it for you.

My iPod touch screen will not work.

Ever since last night, my iPod's touch screen has been messed up. I didn't use it incorrectly or anything; I just used my iPod like I normally did for the past eight months. I have seen no problems until now. The iPod's keyboard is screwed up, when I press the letter "a" the capitalizing button is activated. They same is repeated over and over among over letters as well. The first sign of the issue was when I was trying to watch a video, the play button refused to be pressed and random things were constantly activated while I did nothing. The lock screen slide doesn't work either, the only way to get into my iPod is my activating the lock camera and then pressing the home button. Should I restore the iPod or is there a quick way to fix this?

Your screen digitizer needs to be replaced. See options in link below.

Just disable the gameport on "Device Manager" to see if it's the culprit.
Have you also played with mouse settings (acceleration and saple rate)?

If I buy an ipad2 3G in the USA will it work with a UK sim card?

If I buy a US ipad2 3G from an apple store in the USA, will it automatically work when I am back in the UK when I fit a UK cellular network micro sim card? Many thanks

It should, from all the posts I've read. Just make sure you get the AT&T version, or more accurately NOT the Verizon version. (if you buy it from one of those retailers)
There's 3 basic kinds of iPads.
3G/Wifi with SIM
3G/Wifi with CDMA (think that's the abbreviation)
and
Wifi only
the Sim and wifi only will work in the UK with only a plug adapter, but the CDMA one is not compatible with the UK's cell system

Have a 3rd generation ipod touch and the touch screen will not work.

What should I do? My iPhone sometimes does this and there is a key on the side that I always hit and it makes it work again but my ipod doesn't have that. What to do what to do what to do

Try the standard fixes:
- Reet. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/nw iPod.
If you still have the problem it is likely a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My iPad 2 touch screen will not work. The screen is currently locked. The sliders work, but the number pad doesn't! My screen was shattered months ago, and worked fine until recently. I need to delete confidential info before replacing the glass. HELP!

Again, everything worked perfectly until about two days ago. Out of nowhere, the numbers on the unlock screen stopped working. The sliders still work, the photo button still works. I've tried reseting it multiple times, and powering it off multiple times as well! Any help would be very helpful. It needs to be fixed as soon as possible for a private buyer. Thank you!!

Have a read at all this, including the links. I personally would then proceed in this order.
Open iTunes on your computer. Connect your device (iPad or whatever) to the computer. Hold both home and power buttons for exactly 10 seconds, release the power button, keep holding home button until your device recognises it is in Recovery Mode. (Perhaps 10-20 seconds.) If the device screen is black (blank) then it is in DFU Mode.
See this link and note the sentence commencing, 'If you restore from a different computer.... ' down near the bottom of the page.

Try:

How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My i pod touch touch screen will not work it will not unlock or power of i tried restoring 2 times that did not work out does anyone know how to fix this massive problem

i need help please

Restore to factory settings/new iPod if you have not do so already. If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

The touch screen will not work properly and squares appear around the icons but I cannot remove them

You can not delete Apple supplied apps, such as Contacts, Reminders, Text, etc. You can only get the X to delete 3rd party apps downloaded from the App store.

My remote will not work with my TV @nywhere card, Please help.

I have just installed my TV @nywhere card and it works great. I have all the cables plugged in right but I can't get the remote control to work. I even tried a new battery. I'm running windows XP pro. Any Suggestions?

What's wrong with it is it's broken. The power button is broken. The dock port may be broken. The battery may have reached the end of its useful life.
Make an appointment at the genius bar of your local Apple Store and have it checked out. There are no words that will fix failed or broken hardware other than "here is my credit card"...
