Orig iPhone 2.1 OS - Bluetooth service OFF, will not turn ON

have an orig 16Gb iPhone with version 2.1 of the iPhone OS installed. I have rebooted (using the method provided) twice.
Bluetooth service does not turn ON.
Prior to the 2.0 update, I had a Samsung WEP earpiece paired with my phone. I lost it and went without it for many months. Bluetooth is now off by default (probably has been for some time).
I got a new Jawbone 2 and attempted to pair it up with my iPhone.
1) General
2) Bluetooth, service is OFF
3) Tap the ON button
RESULT: progress indicator spins endlessly until the screen dims and finally the saver kicks in.
The service never fully initializes. If I jump away from settings and come back, Bluetooth is set to OFF.
I have also attempted to pair my brand new jawbone 2 headset while this progress indicator is rolling but the two devices do not identify each other. The jawbone is IN pairing mode, but, the iPhone never recognizes this device. The progress indicator just rolls and rolls and rolls.
I have tried 'power down' resets and a full reboot (from the HOME screen, press and hold HOME and SLEEP/WAKE button past power slider and until Apple icon is displayed) and nothing has worked.
I saw a 3G thread with the same problem that suggested doing a reset, but, the so called author never really defined what type of reset (network, full, etc.) worked.
Any clues, guidance or of course solution to my problem would be greatly appreciated! It's illegal to drive and talk on the phone in the state of CA without a headset! But, without bluetooth service, my headset is not operational!

You will just have to restore it. Sorry.

Blue screen on c7280 all in one reads b851fe84. lights flicker on and off. will not turn off.

HP Photosmart C7280 All-In-One printer. Operating system is Windows XP. This has happened sporadically over several months. A few weeks ago, I inserted new ink cartridges and that seemed to stop the problem. Now, it has returned. The on/off button will not turn the printer off. The photo-menu, print photos, auto answer, on/off button, plus a light near the card slots all blink on and off. The PhotoSmart Express displays a blue screen with B851FE84 written on it. On occasion, I have received other blue screen messages but they appear for just a second or two. I believe one earlier today was B01B17FC but it only appeared for a second or two so it may not be correctly recorded.

Dv7 6c95dx wifi turns off will not turn back on

Having problems with my laptop. While online the wifi will turn itself off and will not turn back on. You can push the button all you like and nothing. Sometimes if I restart the laptop it will come back on--other times I have to do a complete shutdown--going so far as removing the battery after shutdown.

Try to reset your connection and set up a new one. Check this page as it might give any help.

Works best with HP!!

IPhone 5 submerged in water, but did not turn off/will not turn off. Best course of action?

My iPhone 5 was just in the sink under running water and mostly submerged for a few seconds. It stayed on with all buttons working, clear screen and clear camera lens. I have tried to turn it off, but every time I try it reboots. I removed the SIM - it was completely dry, but since I can't see the inside I'm assuming there's definitely moisture in there.
I currently have it in an airtight bag with silica gel, and I'm planning to leave it for a day or two, but it's still on. Should I keep trying to turn it off, or is it better for me to just leave it? I don't have the necessary equipment to remove the battery, unfortunately.

Last attempt to turn phone off actually did turn the phone off. Not going to touch it for a day or two, and hoping for the best.

Iphone 5 randomly gets blue screen. Will not turn on after I tried to restart it.

I have had my Iphone 5s since about a month after they came out. It has worked perfectly up until now.
While I was at work I was going about my regular business using my phone as usual. I put it into my pocket and about 15 minutes later pulled it out to check it but all that was on the screen was a dim dark blue light. I couldnt do anything on the screen including turning it off so I did that hard reset (holding the Home and Sleep button).
After the phone shut off it did not turn back on. I tried every combination of buttons and reset options.
     -(Home/Sleep buttons)
     -(Home/Sleep buttons +Volume up and down)
     -(Home/Sleep buttons while turning the mute button on and off)---This one was just a theory online, same as the one before it.
     -(Restored the iphone multiple times in itunes)
I had the phone plugged in for a good amount of time and while it was charging it would periodically do a quick 2 vibration burst, like it was starting to connect.
Im guessing its just not getting past a point in the restarting process so it just doesnt continue, seeing as it is still accepting a charge (Itunes put it at 68%)
Anyone have any theories or explanation as to why this could be happening? I appreciate any response
Thanks

Try to put the phone in recovery mode and restore it. If that does not work, take it in to an authorized service provider or Apple store for service. It is still under warranty.

I have had trouble with my iphone 4 since latest update. It will not turn on after charging.

I am having trouble with my iPhone 4 since latest upgrade. It will turn off during charge and can only be turned back on by restoring it with itunes. Is there anything I can do to fix this problem?

IPhone 3GS V4.3.3 - Passcode Lock will not turn off

Ok, first off, I have never intentionnally turned on my Passcode Lock... As the story goes, I was dead asleep the other day and got a text, in the process of trying to get to the text while groggy and half asleep, my phone asked me to enter a passcode, I entered my usual 4 digit code for most things twice, got to the text replied and went back to sleep. Now, I cannot turn off my Passcode Lock!!!
When I go to Settings, Passcode Lock (shows On), enter my passcode, then on the screen the Turn Passcode Off is greyed out and cannot be selected. Can someone tell me what I have done to make it where I cannot turn off the Passcode Lock? Please help!!!

Interesting... I do have an exchange account on my phone and have had it on my phone for 3 years now however, they just did an upgrade on the email server and it happend right about the same time, within a day or so. For now, I've set it to require the password after every one hour and I will contact my office and ask if that is a new requirement. Thanks soo much for your help it makes total sense since we handle very sensitive information.

Ipod has recently been serviced, and will not turn on again.

My ipod has been serviced in April, the issue was that my ipod wouldn't turn off.
It's only been about a month and a half, another issue arises - the ipod wouldn't turn on.
I tried the 5R's and some basic steps in resolving this issue. None of them will turn it on.
Although my ipod is still covered by the limited warranty, but I can't afford shipping it twice to Apple Service, it's almost like the price I purchased it. Now I still want it to be serviced but think I shouldn't not be charged for anything since it's really not my fault.
What should I do right now? Anyone has some advices?
Thanks in advance.

1. Can you get it to light up doing a hard reset and holding the buttons down for at least a minute?
2. Is it charged up?
3. Is the USB power cable good?
4. Can you get iTunes to recognize using recovery or DFU mode?

MSI GT60-0NC laptop suddenly shut off, will not turn on again. Please help.

Hi there,
I purchased the laptop back in May 2013. Today I was using it and I just launched a game on Steam when suddenly it turned off immediately. It wouldn't boot back up again. I tried pressing down the power button for 1 minute (without AC power) and then connected the power supply and tried to boot but it would not.
It did not overheat and I opened the bottom and cleaned all the dust to be sure. The battery is fully charged. I tried booting again but it wouldn't work. I live in India and I purchased the laptop in Kuwait. Seeing that there are no MSI service centers here is worrying me. Anyone had a similar problem? Any solutions?

I just had the same problem. The power button flashes white for a sec, but nothing starts up. The disk drive wouldn't even open, so it's probably a fried motherboard. I just sent mine in for RMA, so it'll be a while before I get mine back. I live in the US though, so I don't know how you're going to get service.
Not much help from me, but sending it in is probably the best solution. As for where, well, I can't help you there.

Iphone 4S shut down by itself and will not turn on.

I was using my phone in the car on Sunday and it was working perfectly fine, got home and placed it on the table. Went away for 10-15 mintues and I had come back to find it was off which I thought odd as the battery was almost fully charged. I attempted to wake it using the sleep wake button - nothing. I assumed it had gone flat for some reason so I put it on charge, an hour later still nothing, plugged it into the computer - nothing. Tried to hold down the sleep/wake + home button for 30-45 seconds - NOTHING Itunes wouldnt recognized it either it has been off since Sunday afternoon and hasn't turned back on at all - no heat either. It is still under warranty so I am hoping I'll get a replacement when I send it to apple it's about 10 months old + water indicators have not been set off.
Any help or ideas would be appreciated I think I have tried almost everything to try to get it working.

Phone turns itself off, will not turn back on

I got the Sony Xperia M4 Aqua only three days ago from Virgin Mobile in BC, Canada. Model number E2306. -Since then it has shut itself off for no reason 8 times.(eg- in the middle of charging, during the night, multiple times in one morning). -Always when I lock the screen, and when I go to unlock it again with the power button, nothing happens. -Sometimes it happens if I leave the phone locked for 5 minutes, or 3 hours. -The ony way I can get the phone to turn back on is through holding the OFF (reset) button next to the sim card slot. -I have tried registering for Xperia Support through the app on the phone and it says my IMEI number is invalid? -The phone runs fine and no app crashes while it is turned on. How do I fix this, or should I return the phone?!

Try performing a system repair using PC Companion as this will often fix issues - This will factory reset your phone and erase all data so best to backup before you begin
Switch off your phone and unplug from Pc (Hold volume up and power for around 10 seconds)
Start PC Companion and select Support zone then Update my phone/tablet then in Blue Repair my phone/tablet and follow the on screen instructions - When prompted connect your phone still switched off holding volume down or back button - This should start the repair or reformat process
If you are using Windows 8/8.1 or a 64bit operating system then adjust the settings for PC Companion and run in compatibility mode and chose Windows 7 or XP

I have done a hard reset on my iPhone 4S 3 times and my iMessage will not turn on.

Help me fix this. It's far past ridiculous.

Not sure what a hard reset is.
Assuming you mean a reset, then try a restore from backup. If that does not solve then restore as new.
