No Wifi!??(but yes GPS, 3g)

My iphone 3g (not 3gs) had "No wifi" problem (since last year.) Ive done all the resetting, network resetting, and everything. (even freezer.)
I guess it is a hardware problem but I also heard that wireless antenna takes care of GPS as well.
since my GPS is working fine, I guess antenna is not the problem.
What should I DO!!!! I've never tried jail breaking by the way.....

It may not be the antenna, it may be some other hardware issue with wifi... wifi is more than just an antenna.

  • I cannot get GPS Only to work on my ipad3 (4g version, but not on an active cell plan, and wifi off).  Is there some new requirement in 7.1 or 7.1.1 to have cell and/or wifi enabled for GPS to work? I am testing with MotionX

    It seems like I cannot get GPS only to work on my ipad3 (4g version, but not on an active cell plan, and wifi off).  Is there some new requirement in 7.1 or 7.1.1 to have cell and/or wifi enabled for GPS to work? I am testing with MotionX, garmin blueChart mobile, and a GPS monitoring tool. All show no signal. If I turn on cell and wifi,  it says I get gps signal, but can't tell if that is from the GPS chip, or just from cell and wifi only (maybe with some gps mixed in)?  Any ideas on how to get iPad working with GPS only??

    Roger that.  Thanks for your time.

    Yes. tried the one ram stick, no go.  I have been trying to boot off/install the windows 7 disk but am unable to get to the point where windows starts installing after its gathering information portion of the install.  I can get to the disk selection screen of the install with the WD HD on SATA port 2 but then get the "cant install messages" when I try to select the Vertex 3.  Yes I can see the Vertex 3 Drive as well as the WD drive at this point.  some times I have to hit "scan" a couple of times.

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router

  • Switching off connections fast (Wifi, 3G, BT, GPS)

    Does anybody know of an easy (FAST) way to switch off and on your Wifi, 3G, Bluetooth, GPS connections on the iPhone? I HATE going through all the screens. On top of that they are not all in the same place. Is there an App or something? I cannot seem to find anyhing. or is this improved in iOS5?
    Thanks.

    I wasn't really trying to switch them all off at once. But sometimes I want to switch off wifi or 3G, depending on the network strength I have. Also for powersave reasons I often switch some of these on or off. And they are just not well placed. For example on the Samsung Galaxy range (android), they are very conveniently put together in one easy accessable area (except for 3G, which is annoying as well). But then again, I love my iPhone and don't want an android ;-)

    One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
    Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
    Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
    Power up
    Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

  • Facetime on MacBook doesn't work on wifi but works fine on Ethernet

    Title describes it accurately. Yes I have updated Facetime and OS X after the April 16th problem and yes the other person is updated. I don't believe it's a wifi hardware problem, considering I am able to connect to websites and IRC using wifi, but Facetime always fails on wifi. I can't find anything about it anywhere.

  • Email comes in on wifi but not edge

    I have an email account with rcn and i can get email with wifi but not with the edge. I know with blackberry i had to set it up through blackberry. with the mail on edge it just gets a rotating progress bar until it quites trying and then if you hit the refresh it does nothing.
    thanks,
    Karen

    Hello,
    Yes...but it will depend greatly on your email service:
    For POP, I don't think there is a way for Outlook to reconcile changes made at the server back to itself.
    For IMAP, it can be done, but you must be sure that you've integrated the account into Outlook as IMAP.
    If the account truly is full EAS, then that should work as well with Outlook, as long as it's been properly integrated to Outlook.
    If this is instead a BESenvironment (you should be able to tell...if you see Notes and Tasks as also available for sync to your Z10, then it's BES), then you need to talk to your BES admins.
    Goodluck!

  • My Ipad Air is saying im connected to my wifi but it keeps on saying cannot connect to server??

    My Ipad Air is saying that I am connected to my Wifi but when ever I try to open anything it tells me im not connected to server / error and yes I am definitely connected to my Wifi

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    You may have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
    If that doesn't help, restart your router.

    You said:  "I've never tried the restore function in disk utility. Would that be the same as cloning the drive?
    YES!  See the my old instructions below.  What you might try after step 5 is to restart you MBP holding down the Option key.  Select the new HDD icon and see if it boots.  This way you will know that the new HDD is operable.
    Ciao.
    INSTALLING A NEW HDD IN A MB
    1. Make certain that you have backed up all of your important data.
    2. You will need a HDD enclosure.  One with a USB connection will do.  A 9 pin Firewire is better.
    3. Install your new drive in the enclosure and connect it to your MBP.
    4. Open DISK UTILITY>ERASE.  From the left hand column drag the new drive into the 'Name' field.  Make sure that the format is 'Mac OS Extended (Journaled)'.  Click on the 'Erase' button.
    5. Click on the 'Restore' button (on top).  Drag the old drive into the 'Source' field and the new drive into the 'Destination'  field.  Click on the 'Restore' button on the bottom right hand corner.
      Depending upon the amount of data you are transferring, this may take a couple hours or more.  A Firewire will speed up the transfer.  This will result in both drives having identical information on them.
    6. After the data transfer has completed, you may swap the drives.  Start the MBP and you have finished the installation.  The initial boot may take a bit longer than you are accustomed to, but that is normal.
    7. When you are satisfied that the new hard drive if functioning properly, you can erase the old drive and use it for any needs that you may have.

  • I want camera ,apps and wifi but not the phone. Can I do that?

    I want camera ,apps and wifi but not the phone. Can I do that?
    I'm sure this is a common Q but I've spent more time then needed already to find the answer with no luck.
    It's a free star to a polite answer

    This rings very true. The iPhone is subsidized by AT&T by a significant amount. This is corporate line fact.
    AT&T's subsidized price for the iPhone is as follows:
    3G - $99 for the 8GB & $149 for the 16GB.
    3GS - $199 for the 16GB & $299 for the 32GB.
    These prices require signing a two year contract with AT&T.
    Apple and AT&T's non-subsidized/no-committment/full retail sales price for the iPhone is as follows:
    3G - $499 for the 8GB & $549 for the 16GB.
    3GS - $599 for the 16GB & $699 for the 32GB.
    The iPhone is an iPod Touch with a phone that also includes a GPS receiver, bluetooth, and a camera. It also includes proximity sensors to turn the iPhone's screen off when holding the iPhone up to your ear and face during a call.
