My iPhone 5 lock screen is unresponsive after iOS 7 update.

It's weird because the new iOS worked for about a day then started to act laggy. When I restarted the phone the lock screen is totally unresponsive.
All help appreciated.

Oh, and yes, I have already done the hard reset trick of holding down power and home keys at same time.
Also tried to restore through iTunes but it won't let me because I have "find my phone" turned on and it tells me to turn it off before I can restore it. But it can't even get into the iPhone settings to make the changes.
I like the look and feel of iOS 7, but I wish it would actually work.

    Lock screen malfunctioning since last ios update.  Sudden access to music playback function while phone is  off, locked with password.  Access during lock screen has been turned off.

    Hi TTToo,
    If you are having issues accessing the Control Center audio controls from the lock screen after a recent update, you may find the following article helpful. In particular, you may want to verify that it is still set to be accessed from the lock screen:

  • Iphone 4s wouldn't start after ios update

    I just updated my ios to 5.1. download completed, phone restarted, etc. All looked ok and i have got to the screen when it said that YOU CAN START USING YOUR IPHONE. when i click on the button it restarts and goes back to the same CONFIGURE menu. anyone faced the same problem?

    Hello - I have the similiar problem with my wifes iPhone 4s. It sucessfully installed the ios 5.1 however on restart it came up with the grey iphone setup screen. Once you enable location services, select your wifi network it prompts you saying that your iphone is ready to use (CLICK TO USE YOUR IPHONE).
    Almost immediately after that, the screen flashes the home screen then it restarts itself back to the setup menu. I cannot get past this menu.
    I have tried-
    1. Restoring the phone to new
    2. Restoring from a backup
    3. Hard and soft resets
    None of the above have fixed the issue. I have a genius bar appt with apple today to see what the problem is and if the phone is now a dud because of this new ios 5.1 update. REALLY FRUSTRATING!
    Please let me know if there are other forums or folks having the same or similiar issue and what is being done to fix the problem.
    Thanks-

  • ?iphone 4  wont turn on after ios update

    Hi folks, I updated my iphone 4 with the ios5 or 6 update, and when it powercycled it would not turn back on.
    when I try to turn it on, i get the standard apple icon, then a usb symbol will appear with an arrow above it, and the i tunes symbol above that.
    Its obviously telling me to connect to itunes, but when i do, the device registers, but only prompts me to reset the phone. After doing that, same prob...HELP

    If connecting in recovery mode, as explained in this article did not help to restore the phone again, you'll have to get it checked by visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider or Apple Store next to your place or by contacting Apple Support.

  • IPhone 4 downloading old mail after iOS update

    I have the mail app set up to download my comcast email. I have it set not to delete messages from the server because I still want them to download into outlook on my home computer. I have had it set up this way since the original iPhone and never had a problem. Now after installing the new iOS, it is downloading all my old emails over again. How do I make it stop doing this? I have not changed any settings. I only installed the new iOS that came out when 4s was released.

    The phone will still download the most recent emails from the server. The number of recent emails it will download is in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar > Show [50 or 100 or 200] Recent Messages.

  • After iOS 7.0.2 update: Freeze on lock screen, blackout & unresponsive for 5 min then the phone restarts itself

    Happened after iOS 7.0.2 update a few times (2x this morning): Freeze on lock screen, "blackout:" unresponsive to any buttons pressing, after 3-5 minutes the phone restarts itself and works again... (1) May I ask what can I do? I am trying to reset it and recovering the data from backup. (2) Can a virus cause this problem?

    To rule out a software issue, set it up as new device without using the latest backup.

    If it does not charge normally after that, you'll have to get it serviced, the problem might be hardware related.

  • Touch Screen unresponsive after iOS 8 update

    My 1 year old 64GB iPhone 5 touch screen started to become unresponsive after iOS 8 update
    It's not consistent. Touch screen functionality will seize whilst phone is being used for either answering calls, typing messges, surfing, gaming etc and won't become responsive until it is turned off and on again (via power button). Home button is functioning with no problems.
    As the phone is now out of its warranty period I want to verify if it's the OS that's causing this or do I actually have a hardware issue.

    I have the same issue. iPhone 5, 1 year-old, not even a scratch.
    Sometimes my touch screen works, sometimes not. When it works, it is just for some seconds, then some phantom touches start to happen all over the screen, but specially, when i'm typing, it types z or m, when I try to type something in, and it receives it, it will act as z or m again....
    If I switch off my screen and switch on again... sometimes it will work, sometimes it wont... veeery unstable.
    I considered downgrading to 7.1.2 but since I heard it is ilegal I decided to wait for a new iOS release.... any suggestions? (already wiped it and the issue continued...)
    Is it really not recommended to downgrade it and have my phone funcionalities back?

  • Lock Screen wallpaper gone after 6.1.1 upgrade.

    Lock Screen wallpaper gone after 6.1.1 upgrade.  I tried resetting wallpaper and rebooting, but lock screen stays at default black background with battery.  Anyone else notice this?

  • Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?

    Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?
    The screen isn't broken because it works after i turn the device off and back on, but after it goes black once, it's only white again.
    But it takes the touches although it's only white, because I can answer my phone when I slide my finger on the bottom of the screen, eventhough there in not the button to see.
    This is so weird. I have already done everything I can think of that might help. But I cannot think of anything that might be causing it, because nothing has happened to the device.

    Let me know if I should start a new discussion instead of opening a new topic here.
    My wife's iPhone is the same vintage as mine 3Gs, but has never had the battery problem.  Its affliction instead is that it cannot detect WiFi networks unless it is quite close to the source.  Often, when my iPhone not only detects but shows a maximum cells connection with a network, hers cannot detect the network at all.  In contrast, her iPhone seems to detect ourcellular carrier just as well as mine does.
    Is there any help for this affliction?

  • IPhone 3GS Audio Volume Decrease After iOS 5 Update

    The Audio/Volume on my iPhone 3GS has Decrease SIGNIFICANTLY After iOS 5 Update.  Oddly, the volume of the ring is fine, and as lout as it used to be, and as loud as all other audio should be, but when using any 3rd party applications, the volume output is significantly less (about 40% less) than it used to be.
    I am NOT the only person to experience this problem.  Apparently, the issue has been around since this past summer, when iOS was still being developed / tested.  There is a post about someone experiencing the same issue, here:
    http://modmyi.com/forums/general-iphone-chat/768919-ios-5-low-volume.html
    And before you ask .. I did a language change and reset, and I am still experiencing the SAME issue.
    Any help or advice with this problem would be greatly appreciated.
    In advance, thank you.

    I have a similar or related problem with iOS5/3GS and volume:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/16413964#16413964
    In my case I can hear nothing from the internal speakers although I can use headphones. The volume slider bar is unavailable unless I plug in headphones.
