When on the phone to someone the phone crackles and hangs up so the other person can't hear what is wrong with it? :(

That iPhone needs to be tested by the techs at an Apple store genius bar to see what is faulty in the hardware.

My I Phone 4 keeps putting me on hold or mute or hanging up on me from my face touching the screen. returned one phone and now my replacement is doing the same thing. this is crazy. my iphone 3 didn't do this!

My I Phone 4 keeps putting me on hold or mute or hanging up on me from my face touching the screen. returned one phone and now my replacement is doing the same thing. this is crazy. my iphone 3 didn't do this! the screen is suppose to turn black when it is near my ear so that you can not do this and then turn on again when you pull it away. This phone is not doing this.

Are you using a case around your phone? If yes, did you make sure the proximity sensor is not covered?
Try without the cover to make sure the sensor is working.
A protection film on your screen can also cover the sensor and result in a dysfunction of the sensor.

I have an iphone 4s that is having display issues. If I turn the phone on, it vibrates to acknowledge it successfully turned on but the screen stays solid black. I can plug the phone into my computer and itunes will recognize the phone as well.

However, itunes can not do anything with the phone because the phone is locked and I can not unlock the phone because the screen is black.

The screen does work though! Through trial and error along side a little troubleshooting, I was able to figure out that the screen will cut on after the phone dies completely. The phone has to die completely with no battery power left. Then if I plug the phone into a charge and wait a while for it to charge, the phone will turn on like nothing was ever even wrong with it. I charge the phone up to like 30% and turn it off then bam the phone turns on but the screen is solid black again.
I am currently in the process of waiting for the phone to die and when I turn the phone back on I am going to completely remove the auto-lock and lock code off of the phone for the time being.
Any other suggestions? Please help!

Sounds like the device was dropped at some point and damaged as a result.
Take it to Apple for evaluation and a replacement.

My problem - when syncing and error messages comes up: iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone because an error occurred while margin data." I've tried turning the phone off and back on, & tried both USB ports but get the same thing. What can I do next since it doesn't give me even one clue as to what the error would be?

Before I started to resync calendars one by one as suggested in the troubleshooting article, I remembered something that came up in a sync when I first attempted : a 'which one do you want to keep' message about a repeating calendar event, which came up with three options, one from Calendar, and two from iCal on the phone. I deleted that event, then went through the calendar resync one by one, and all seems OK now.
In Music there is a way to find 'ghost' items that show up as grayed-out on the menus, so that you can try to reassociate or delete them. It would be nice to have a similar way to work with Calendar!
Thanks for pointing me to the right article.

Help My S5 recently reset while my screen was locked and i had a ton of pictures on the phone's storage. I would love to retrieve that and find out how it is possible to reset a phone while the screen is locked.

This past sunday My son got a hold of my phone and some how reset it while the phone was locked. No he does not know how to unlock it. As a result all my pictures and videos that were stored on the memory have been lost. I am looking to see if there is a method to recover those. I was able to check the SD card and all that was there seems to be recovered. I just don't know how to do it with the phone itself. Unfortunately i got the phone recently and therefore had not change the camera to use the SD card. Please help

This same thing happened to me this weekend. When the phone is locked, if someone tries or attempts to try to unlock the phone it will reset to factory default wiping the phone and the SD memory card.
I carry my phone in my pocket. Apparently I was active enough that the screen thought I was trying to unlock it. When I pulled it out of my pocket, it said it was erasing my SD Card. I turned it off and back on. Then it said the pass code had been tried 10 times and was resetting to factory default. No way to stop it. I had years of data on my SD Card. All gone. Called Verizon Tech support. They said oh yeah that happens. They were no help at all. The tech just wanted to tell me about his experiences with data loss. I could give a flip about him.
This is an android issue. Who ever thought this was a good idea should be beat with a stick. I can always remotely erase my data from the phone if and when I need to. Don't need some programmer making these decisions for me. It is Bull Crap!

I just upgraded to lion on my intel macbook. I would like to change my facetime alert to something different than a phone ring and, I would like to be able to have full screen. How do I do this?

Downgrade Lion to Snow Leopard
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.1.
If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions. If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.

The phone screen is black and is saying that the screen is locked

oOn a 4s phone the screen is black and saying the screen is locked how do i fix?

Hi Cindy,
It sounds like you may have a passcode on your iPhone. Does it say anything else or have you tried entering the passcode? The article below provides more details about passcodes and tips for using them, including what to do if you forgot or can't remember your passcode.

HT201317 I had my photo stream on and my icloud all set up, i just had the screen replaced and they somehow lost all the photos off my phone, but why wont the photo's reload back on to my iphone now that im connected to wifi again, where are all my photos

I had my photo stream on and my icloud all set up, i just had the screen replaced and they somehow lost all the photos off my phone, but why wont the photo's reload back on to my iphone now that im connected to wifi again, where are all my photos???

When photos are added to the photo stream album on a device (either due to a new photo having been taken or having been synced from another device using the stream) they remain in the album. However, the syncing process involves copying the photos to the photo stream server where they are kept for a maximum of 30 days, up to 1000 photos. If a device is reset or the stream is turned off or turned back on again (or in your case, the device was repaired), the photos that were on the device's photo stream album are gone and the only ones to appear are those that are currently on the servers (recall the 30 day limit).
If some of your photos are older than 30 days, then they are no longer stored on the cloud and hence are not synced down to the iphone.
Recall, photo stream is just a syncing service, it is not designed as a storage service for photos. Always sync photos to a computer for archiving.

It's in recovery mode. Anything that was on the phone and not already backed up is already gone. You have no choice but to restore.

I have only recently got my iphone, and the screen won't rotate in Safari or messaging. It works fine in games (eg Doodle Jump). The screen portrait lock is off, and i have tried turning it on and off and updating it. Why wont it rotate?

Next step is to Restore it in iTunes from your backup. If that does not work they try Restoring it as a new phone. If still no go it is a hardware failure and you will need to get it serviced.
And you are not showing the hardware lock icon on the top right of the home screen?

Portege M300 hangs after "Windows shuts down" comes up on the screen

The computer hangs after "Windows shuts down" comes up on the screen. The same happens in hibernation mode. I have to turn off the computer by holding the on/off button.
I have updated my bios, installed all windows updates that are available and done a numer of other things. It startd just out of the blue. Any ideas?

Hi
Does it happen after the OS installation from the Toshiba recovery CD???
Did you install any further programs???
I have noticed a similar freezing on my notebook. Mostly it happened because the background process did not close and therefore the notebook could not force the shut down. In my case it was a adobe acrobat reader which could not close.
I think you should defragment you HDD and use the CCleaner freeware application.
This program cleans program errors and corrects the registry entries.
Try it! Maybe its not a serious issue!
