Updated my iphone with iOS7.0.3, still dont have the option to reject the call or reject the call with a message when someone call and the phone is in the lock screen? I was of the impression that this issue will be fixed with updates. Please see the screenshot.

Hello Beardsell,
This is when the phone is unlocked mode. My snapshot is when the phone is locked.
Remember when you get a call when the phone is locked and you used to have slide to answer in iOS 6 and if you slide up you would have options to reject, reject with a message and reject with a reminder. We dont have that in iOS 7. iOS 7 *****, I cannot get back to iOS6, apple needs to be user friendly. Screen shot 1 when the phone is locked, screenshot 2 when the phone is unlocked.

My phone is showing SIM Locked, what can I do to unlock it?

Hi Tomastiger,
Lets get your sim unlocked! Which iPhone do you have? Is the device asking for the PUK or PIN code?
Thanks,

Just got iOS 7, Lock Screen Blurred When I Have No Notifications?

Just got the new iOS 7 update for my iPhone 5, I realized that the lock screen blurs when you have notifications. So for the first few days if I swiped into my phone, then pressed the button on the top that turns the screen off and takes you back to the lock screen. And it wasn't blurred anymore (thank god! I really like the picture I have for my lock screen. Then after a few days I got some notifications, once again (because I wanted to see the picture I had for my lock screen/I deleted it by mistake and no it's not on my iCloud I checked) I went into the phone and went out and it was still blurred when there were no notifications on display. What is going on?

sometimes seems like the effect may not auto-disappear, as it should. hopefully the "blur with no notifications" is NOT normal.
rebooting the iphone always works to remove the burred effect; and may fix this "glitch", if it IS a "glitch".
but, if your issue is only with notifications blurring the lockscreen, this seems fairly easy to fix, since you can set ALL of your apps to NOT display notifications on the lockscreen. If the iOS doesn't have to display info there, there is no need to blur the background.
you should note that there are things other than notifications that WILL blur the lockscreen; so when you say you're getting "blurring but no notifications"; then this could mean that the iOS is displaying some other info on the lockscreen.
Example: for me the blurred screen has to do with AUDIO PLAYBACK, which causes the iOS to display the "playback control buttons" on the lockscreen. When I PAUSE AUDIO, the blur clears up instantly. So, clearly, Apple designed the screen to work this way.
I will be checking to see if a way to remove the "audio controls" from the lockscreen. given new contol center (which I can access from the lockscreen), there is no longer any need for these controls to display on the lockscreen.
I will be trying to remove everything possible from displaying on the lockscreen, to at least minimize this effect. But think we all need to request that apple add an option to STOP the blur effect on the lockscreen.

Just after updating Draw with Friends, my iPhone got the "Panic, just haning here" message. I tried to reset it and it got stuck on the screen with the usb connect to iTunes. When I connected to iTunes on my Mac, it kept giving an error message that the phone connected could not be restored because it was in recovery mode, recover then connect. The phone wouldn't recover... I finally got it to connect to iTunes by holding down the home and power buttons, connecting to computer and then let the power button off as soon as the apple appeared. It took all night to download the restore for the phone, then when I hit the restore iPhone button, it gets half way done and gives the message" The iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (14).

Lock screen frozen

i am unable to side my lock screen. but when i used siri i was able to tap the screen, how can i get my screen to slide if it won't let me tap the screen

First see if you have the accessibility VoiceOver feature turned on.
Triple click the home button and try going to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn VoiceOver off. You may have to use three fingers to scroll the screen to get there. If problems see the following for how to turn off via iTunes:
iPhone: Configuring accessibility features (including VoiceOver and Zoom)
If not successful
- 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.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Phone icon not on lock screen

According to the iOS 5 update the photo icon on lock screen is not present.

Double tap on the home button when on the lock screen

No phone reception and SIM locked

Hi,
I reset my new iPhone 4s and when I turned the phone back on it asked for a PIN to unlock the SIM. I hadn't set up a SIM PIN as yet (not that I can recall, anyway) so now I can't make calls. In the top left-hand corner of the screen it says "SOS only" or "Locked SIM".
The reason I reset the phone was to try to get the "Cellular Data Network" tab to show up on the network settings at Settings/General/Network as the only internet connection I had been able to get is via Wi-Fi.
So now I have no phone connection as well as no data connection - which is annoying.
I am with Virgin Australia and have contacted their support line them but they are unable to help and have given me the Apple support number but noone is there as it's now after hours.
Can anyone help? I have tried turning off the Wi-Fi connection, then turning the phone off, taking the SIM out and then reinstalling it and powering up again. I've also synced the phone via iTunes but nothing has helped as it keeps asking for the SIM PIN.

Some carriers provide SIM cards with a default SIM PIN already enabled, & required. Don't know if your carrier requires such, but this is not uncommon. Your carrier should be able to provide you with a default sim pin, if not they can certainly provide you with a PUK code. Call your carrier again & hopefully you'll talk to someone who knows what they're doing. Tell them you need the default sim pin or PUK code. Either that, or you'll have to get a new sim. If you enter the wrong code too many times, it will permanently disable the sim.

HTC One M8 - Apps crash, phone reboots, freezes on lock screen

I have an HTC One M8, got it in June. It is my work phone. I was reading a news article in Chrome this morning and Chrome crashed. I re-opened it, crashed again. I re-opened it, crashed again, and then the phone rebooted on its own. It got stuck on the Verizon boot screen for several minutes. I held the Power + Vol Up buttons to force a restart. The phone rebooted. Now my apps are routinely crashing and the phone is rebooting on its own. I haven't been thrilled with this phone anyway, but now I've had it. Had anyone else had similar issues? Anyone from Verizon that can offer some assistance?

Try clearing the app cache:
Clear App Cache The all new HTC One (M8) | Verizon Wireless
Or wiping the cache partition (you will not lose any data or settings):
Turn off the device.
Press and hold the Volume Down key.
Press and release the Power key to turn the phone on.
Continue holding the Volume Down.
Release the Volume Down key when the three Android images appear on the bottom of the screen.
Press the Volume Down key once to move the cursor from FASTBOOT to RECOVERY.
Press the Power key to begin the wipe.
The device displays the bootup screen followed by a phone with a red triangle.
Press the Up Volume key and Power key at the same time.
Press the Down Volume key three times to select Wipe cache partition.
Press the Power key to initiate the wipe.
Wait until the phone displays Cache wipe complete.
Press the Power key to select Reboot system now.

Phone got wet, now black screen

Last week my wife's BB went for a ride in the Washer/Dryer, so it's spent the last 5 days tucked in a bed of rice with its innards pulled out.
Today I put power to it and the keypad lights up, and the LED flashes but the screen stays black. I've tried the battery remove hard reboot a few times... not even a flicker.
The phone can make and receive calls, and can receive emails and texts (just can't see them).
Is there anything else I can try? If I bring it in can the screen be replaced or is the cost the same as a new phone? - the phone is less than a month old.
Thanks,
G.

I doubt Rogers will be able to fix it. Worth a try though. Even if they can fix it, it most likely will cost too much.

How to decline call when the phone is not in lock screen

Why is there no option to decline a call when it rings like for the old iOS? I need an option to decline a call, not remind me later or send a message

It does not solve the problem for me. I liked to decline people and instantly call them back (cause I have bonus calls) by simply sliding their name in the missed call that appeared right affter I declined.
Now if I decline by double tapping the power button the missed call does now show up on the notification screen, so I have to unlock, go to my contacts and call back... Do I need to say this is terribly worst???
