My Iphone 4s wifi button is grey and won't turn on.

Hi, My Iphone 4s wifi button is grey and won't turn on.  I have reset the network settings in settings, rebooted it and taken it back to factory settings. Any help or advice would be welcome

You should get it looked at by visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider or an Apple Store next to your place, this might be a hardware issue.

    Hey Posada143, You can still try the rice thing, but do not expect much, as roaminggnome has stated. The rice only works if you do it ASAP and leave the iPod off-- do not attempt use, turn on or charge until it is completely dried out. This is probably academic at this point but remember this for the next time: The drying can take 10 days. You put the uncooked rice and iPod in a sealed bag, change the rice every couple of days. This creates a low humidity environment and draws the moisture out of the iPod, but it takes time. Turn your iPod on to earlier, and you run the risk of shorting out, damaging the components inside. Even if done correctly it can spotty. If you do get the iPod to work (and this may require Resetting, Restoring or attempting to place it in DFU recover mode) the first thing you do is make backups, because you never know how long it will continue to work. As for your pictures, if you can't get your iPod to work, you can try data retrieval companies, however; there is no guaranty it will work and it tends to be very expensive. In the future get in the habit of as making backups, because you just don't know. And invest in and use a water tight case. Hope this helps, Good luck. Cheers.

  • The WiFi button is gray and will not turn on WiFi. When I push the Bluetooth on button, all I get is the spinning gear. It does not go on. What is the problem? Is there a fix?

    After trying resets and a full restore, I went to Apple Store. Genius kept me waiting 1/2 hour beyond app'tment time, then had to go through all sorts of tests before concluding the problem was what you said. They replaced the phone. Thanks.

    Hard Reset: HOld the home button and the sleep/wake button of your iPhone for about 10 to 15 seconds at the same time. Holding down both buttons at the same time  till you see the apple appear

    I'm experiencing the same issue. It's one thing to have to re-power up but to not be able to do so without plugging in the charger when the battery is substantially full, is a real drag.

    Hi Scottay777,
    If a button isn't responding correctly in Safari, you may want to try forcing it to close and then relaunch it. You may find the following article helpful:

  • My iPhone 4s wifi is highlighted grey and wont turn on?

    I have an iPhone 4s and all of a sudden, randomly, my wifi has stopped working. It has come up highlighted in grey and i cannot swipe the on/off button, therefore i am unable to use my wifi. I have tried resetting the network and the phone itself and i have had no change. Also i have no insurance so if my iPhone has broken, so wold i be able to get it replaced as the problem was not caused by me, but the phone itself? or will i have to put up with this?

    This almost always indicates a hardware problem that requires replacement.  However, try the suggestions in the following support article:
    iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim
    If your phone is still under warranty or AppleCare coverage, it probably will get replaced for free.  If not, epect to pay for an out of warranty replacement ($199 in USA)

  • My iPhone 5s has just shut off and won't turn back on. Please help?

    I was just chatting on a app and the phone just froze, went to a white screen with the apple trade mark. Then it completely shut off and wouldn't turn back on. I tried charging it and it still won't turn back on.

    Thanks for the advice but I've tried this it hasn't worked. I've held down both buttons together for more than a minute. Do I have to hold them down longer than this?

  • I just recently completely reset my iPod touch and now it won't let me connect to wifi, it won't even let me access the wifi option in the settings. The wifi button is grey and says: "no wifi"

    So I've been trying looking at manuals and online and I can't find anything helpful at all!!! help please? D:

    Not a good sign.  Here is Apple's article on that.  Frequently it is due to a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
