Phone 4 and Shure SE530 causing interference

Hi,
I've been using my Shure SE530 headphones and an iPhone 3GS and iPod Nano for years now with now problems. I recently upgraded to an iPhone 4 and instantly noticed a little interference sound.
As I plug the headphones into an iPhone 4 I can hear a little cracking noise for a few seconds - after the plug is seated. When I'm on the train and we pass another train at speed I hear the cracking noise again.
I've tried my SE530's with other people's iPhone 4's and have the same problem. If I try any other head phones, no problems. If I try my SE530's with any other audio device, no problem.
To the best of my knowledge this is only a problem with an iPhone 4 and my SE530's. Unfortunately I don't know anyone else with SE530's so I can't test theirs.
Has anyone else noticed this ?

This didn't happen by itself. This means VoiceOver is enabled which must be manually enabled at Settings > General > Accessibility.
You can turn this off on the computer used for syncing the iPhone.
With the iPhone connected to iTunes, under the Summary tab for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, at the bottom select Configure Universal Access.
Select Neither for "Seeing" and select OK.

Chronic interference on phone line and broadband drifting in and out

hi, could I speak to an advisor please. We have chronic interference on our phone line and our internet keeps drifting in and out, it has been like this since Tuesday. I have done all the necessary checks including unplugging all the equipment and plugging a corded telephone into the test socket and it is still the same with the corded phone plugged into the test socket, so I'm guessing there is a fault on the line. I need sky to do a line check for me.

Yes. Give Sky a call.

Password Screen, causes random wake up issues and after a call Phone Freezes and needs to be restarted.

I have noticed that the Password Screen is not very robust. I have had numerous times where the phone doesn't bring up the keyboard or the screen comes up black when being "woken up".
I have now noticed that when I am on a long call - speakerphone or using a wired earpiece, that the phone will no longer "wake up". I cannot get to the password screen and the phone is basically unuseable and I need to reboot the phone.
One time this happened where my counterparty had to switch phones and called back immediately. I could not answer his call. I had to do a battery pull. The second time this happened I could at least use the power button to restart the phone.
The password screen seems to cause me quite a few issues.
I would like to know if others are experiencing the same thing.
Best regards,
ctfish

i believe the same thing happened to be. i was thinking that maybe it had to do with the password screen as well but it's weird how it's worked fine for over a month and then BAM.
this morning i wasn't even on a phone call and i looked to wake up my device by swiping up and there is no response. i can't wake it up from the top button either. i can see the red notification light blinking and i can hear when i get emails but i can't do anything. now i'm going to have to just reboot it. holding the top button shows the power off/restart screen. that's about all i can get to. i think i'll try a battery pull this time.

I have been using iCloud since it came out to coordinate my schedules from my phone, ipad and Mac laptop. Last week they stopped synching...I can't upgrade b/c of memory. Could this cause the problem?

I have been using iCloud since it came out to coordinate my schedules from my phone, ipad and Mac laptop. Last week they stopped synching...I can't upgrade past OS 5.1.1. b/c of memory (1st generation iPad and iPhone 4s). Could this cause the problem after the release of the new OS?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

Does a sports camera positioned beside the top right corner of iPhone4 cause interference to GPS?

I rarely experience inaccurate tracking on Sports Tracker app though I did experience it the other day.
Since buying my HRM2 (for iPhone 4) I no longer run the myriad other GPS tracking apps on my iPhone. However, while out on a ride I discovered ST was not tracking well, so decided to simultaneously run a couple of apps. Another also experienced tracking problems.
I decided to remove the iPhone from the ST bike mount and put it in my back pack. The tracking issue resolved itself.
I was operating a sports camera on my bike at the time. It was located right beside the top right corner of the iPhone. On another bike, the sports camera is positioned differently (forward and lower of the top left corner) and I have experienced no problems with tracking. Could it have been causing interference on this ride due to its position?

My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now. About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

Constant buzz on phone line and broadband disconne...

Where our BT phone line enters our house is under a very damp upstairs window. Every couple of years for the 20 years we have lived at the property, we have to report a fault and an engineer would come and replace the damp parts in the little connection box. Over recent times we have been charged the fee for this. The master socket is further down the cable at the bottom of the stairs and is usually OK.
Can we change where the phone line enters the house? The phone line is useless for phonecalls and is affecting our broadband speed and connectivity. The only other option is to scrap the line rental and get mobile broadband or one that doesn't require a phone line. Why do the engineers never fix the problem long term? We want to change to fibre optic, but the phone line will cause the same problems with this. If we cancelled the phone line and then ordered a new bundle, would we actually get a new phone line into the house, or would they simply reconnect the old, damp one?
Thanks for your help

I've never dropped my phone for the 7 months that I've had it but last night I was at a park and when I sat down at a table, my phone as in my pocket and I heard a pop. I took my phone out and the entire screen was cracked. what should I do?

Probably not, since user-caused damage isn't covered by the warranty. But you can take the iPhone to an Apple Store and see if there's anything they can do for you. A phone company store will not service your iPhone at all, to the best of my knowledge.

TV causes interference with powerline adapter

I just had infinity installed and I have a problem with my powerline adapters, which is next to the TV (it is for the sky+ box for sky go). The powerline adapters are TP-Link tl-pa211 and the TV is a Panasonic th-37px70b.
When the TV is on, the maximum I can get through the ethernet powerline is 14mb/s, but if the TV is off or on standby I can get close 40mb/s (i.e. the maximum on the broadband line). The TV is on a wall bracket so it is difficult to move.
I have tried:
TV in room 1 connected to socket in room 1 and powerline in room 1 - 14mb/s when tv is on, 40mb/s when tv is off/standby.
TV in room 1 connected to socket in room 1 and powerline in room 2 - 40mb/s constantly.
TV in room 1 connected to socket in room 2 and powerline in room 2 - 40mb/s constantly.
TV in room 1 connected to socket in room 2 and powerline in room 1 - 14mb/s when tv is on, 40mb/s when tv is off/standby.
It seems it is the actual TV that is directly causing the interference with the powerline adapater, not the TV causing interference in the electricity line. I'm not sure how it can interfere directly.
Has anyone had anything like this before or is the TV just faulty?

Thanks for you reply. I have tried the TV connected directly to the socket and the powerline connected to a seperate twin socket about 1 meter away and I still get the problem when the TV is on. Also, I have connected the TV to a power socket on the other side of the house with a extension cord while not actually moving the TV and the powerline adapter connected to a socket near the TV and this still gives the same problem when the TV is on. And then, with the TV still on the extension cord to the otherside of the house, I connected the powerline to the same twin socket as the extension cord and this produced no problems.
So, it must be the physical proximity of the TV with the powerline adapter that is causing the problem. So could the TV be emmitting some frequency that is interfering with the powerline adapter?
I actually use a wireless powerline adapter (TP-Link TL-WPA281) in the socket, but for testing this problem I use the non-wireless version (TP-Link TK-PA211). And according to this thread, the BT Hub 3B isn't compatible with wireless extenders. Why is upgrading to infinity so annoying?

Seriously, you can't remember either your Apple ID or Password? Well, since you're logged in here, you obviously can remember that Apple ID/Password.
Regardless, I suggest you remember this info, 'cause if you can't, all you'll own is a paperweight. And no, Apple can't/won't help you.

After Update: Dropping Calls, Phone freezes, and more Force Close messages

Hey everyone,
Just wondering if there is anyone else who has noticed after the update that there has been more dropped calls? Do you chalk it up to the phone trying to switch between 3g and 4g? I normally have my phone on the wifi setting (free wifi on my college campus---saves using my data). Also I've noticed recently that the phone will tend to freeze up once in a while to the point where I have to shut the phone off and reboot. Also I have been getting more error messages using most (if not all) my applications [Pandora, facebook, games] with the only option to force close the program.
Is there any solutions to these annoying little problems? Trying to have a conversation on the phone is virtually impossible without the connection being dropped (have a record of 6 dropped connections in one conversation).
Any help would be appreciated!

Hi SV23:
You've listed a number of issues that you are experiencing after the software update, and I would like to help you resolve them. If the force closes seem random, it's likely due to some corruption of the software post-update. Most people can resolve software-related issues via a factory reset. This rules out all of the applications that could possibly cause conflictions with the device. If the phone force closes after a master reset and there are no apps on it, we may need to look into replacement options for the device. You can contact the warranty center directly at 866-406-5154.
Please list any troubleshooting steps that you've completed, and post any updates.
Thanks,

IPhone 5 screen is flickering randomly, the phone freezes and the screen turns black.

I bought an iPhone 5 in New York last December. Now I live in Bogotá, Colombia and I can't find an authorized service center because they said that only if I bought it from a local carrier they attend the warranty.
My iPhone 5 screen is flickering randomly, the phone freezes and the screen turns black… The only way to make it work is to reboot with Home and Lock buttons pressed at the same time. But in the process most of the times it flickers again, and again, and again. I couldn't find a reason to identify what could be causing the issue. Also sometimes when it freezes, some group applications get ungrouped, causing a big mess.
I already tried to restore the phone, remove the SIM, delete all applications with no luck.
Any sugestion? Thanks!

Was this phone ever jalbroken?
If restoring as new, without using a backup, didn't help, there is certainly a hardware problem that only replacement can fix. Your warranty is void unless you return to the USA. Short of that, finding a local independent iPhone repair center would be your only option

E90 - Use BT carkit for phone call, and wired link...

Hello,
just bought an E90 and it works great.
on thing irritates the hell out of me though :-), i can't seem to get BT carkit (nokia CK7W) and a wired link (via the headphone jack) to my car stereo to work like i want it to.
when i plug in the wired link, the phones asks what i connected (headset or musicbox), so i select the last one, and it repsonse by telling it will use the phone microphone, so... nothing weird here yet (i think) but when i start making calls, no mather what i try, the audio gets send out via the wired link to my car stereo, which is no problem, expect, the Nokia Carkit mutes the speakers of the car stereo :-), so, i hear nothing.
does anybody know how to get the BT carkit to handle phone calls, and the wired link to handle music?
or do i need to get an BT connection to my car stereo for this (like the sony MBR-100)?
any suggestion would be very much appreciated.

Various faults can occur that the customer doesn't think is their fault. Water can be spilled on the master socket >due to the voltage on the contacts this causes a green verdigree to occur when the water dries up . This causes low insulation faults to occur. The phone plug when moving furniture can be pushed further into master socket damaging the contacts. And as said any fault further into the home is the responsibility of the home owner . A fault on an extension socket or cable is chargeable due to carpet layers /electricians etc. Gone are the days of nationalisation . The majority of the public voted for privatation because Post Office Telephones were always being heavily criticised for time delays. Now people are upset they have pay as BT is now a private company--You cant have it both ways. It was good of BT activating your line for free. Not always the case elsewhere.

"feeds and updates" widget causing major lag since froyo

Hey guys,
Ive noticed that ever since I downloaded the Froyo OTA update last week, the "feeds and updates" widget is causing MAJOR lag issues. It takes several seconds to move from that screen that the widet is on, and trying to scroll through the widget is VERY slow and choppy. I have tried both the soft reset and the hard reset, without any improvement. If I remove the widget from the screen, my phone gets significantly faster, and the lag pretty much disappears, so Im pretty sure its that widget causing the problem. Has anyone else noticed this problem, and if so, is there any way to fix it? I like using that widget for my facebook updates, and want to keep it!

I have a Samsung Galaxy S Fascinate and since the Froyo 2.2 OTA update last week, my phone turns into a brick as soon as I add my Facebook account to the Feeds and Updates widget. The screen locks up, I can not scroll the wall up and down, and scrolling the screens left and right takes forever; they freeze between screens and everything lags to the point where the phone becomes useless. I powered the phone down and up, took the battery out, no remedy. A hard reset on the phone will make the phone usable again, but as soon as I add Facebook back to the Feeds and Updates widget, the phone starts locking up again. Called Verizon and they reached out to Samsung who thought there was a glitch during the download of the 2.2 software, so Verizon sent me a replacement phone of the same make and model. As soon as I activated it, it told me Froyo 2.2 was ready to be downloaded to the phone for updating. Did that, everything was working fine UNTIL I added my Facebook account to the Feeds and Updates widget; the phone started lagging and locking up as the previous one did. I'm waiting to talk to Level 3 support with Samsung as I write this. Please note, if I reset the phone and don't add my Facebook account to the Feeds and Updates widget, the phone is usable. However, I did notice that in Vibrate Mode with text message and email notification, the vibration barely lasted a millisecond; I could not feel the vibrations in my pocket. In my opinion, this 2.2 update is flawed and needs re-working. I had no issues with this phone with the 2.1 software, and would prefer to go back to it if possible until 2.2 is fixed or another, non-buggy update is released for this phone.
If that is your wish for now, I see no problem in you going back to 2.1. Verizon support should be able to provide you with that os. Just be sure you don't then check for any new updates.

HT1766 i have i phone 3G and i update it from i tunes and it says there is no sim

i have i phone 3G and i update it from i tunes and it says there is no sim

There is nothing wrong with Apple's activation servers. They are up & running just fine.
We're Sorry, Activation Server Temporarily Unavailable, contact Customer Care...Your request Could Not Be Completed?"
99.9% of the time, the cause of this issue is the fact the phone was jailbroken/hacked to unlock it for use on networks other than the network the phone was originally locked to. Apple maintains a database of officially unlocked iPhones, and when Apple's servers detect phones such as yours, activation stops & you get the message you got.
So, you need to get a sim card from the carrier the phone was originally locked to, or get it officially unlocked, if you want to activate it. Because it appears that it was not officially unlocked.
Apple has started to get "tough" with hacked iPhones, & simply won't permit their activation
