Please help! iphone 3gs speaker "hardware problem!!"
Hi, I have used the iphone 1st generation for a long time and I have nearly been using an iphone 3Gs for a year now. The bottom line, I LOVE IT.
Only one problem I have came across 2 months ago.
I have aux support built-in in my car so I plug in the male-male cable to my iphone to listen to my albums. I have no problem with that even now. But 2 months ago, after I unplugged the aux cable and then straight after that when I tried to continue listening to the music(through the speaker) the speaker was "CRACKLING". It lasted like that for about 5 mins, and then it stopped working at all. I tried the plug and unplug method but had no luck.
Although my iphone is still under warranty, I can't send this device to vodafone as I am currently in Korea ( for business for a year ). I would send them to them but I have to pay my own courier. I know I can fix it as long as I know which part to replace.
If anybody has an idea which part is faulty (no guesses please) please advise.
Thank you for reading my messy post.
Was the person who fixed it an authorized Apple service center? No? Seems to me he didn't know what he was doing from what you have told us here. That pretty much explanis it

Iphone 4 Battery, Hardware problems? Please Help.
When you turn my Iphone 4 on, it only gets to the loading part with the apple logo, then turns off and does it all over again. It also only does this if it's on charge, but it doesn't actually seem to be charging. Do i need to restore my phone? Please Help. Thanks
This is one problem within the DirectX 9.0b:
Please take a good look at this update for Microsoft DirectX v9.0b:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=8dfd1b6d-e177-4a0e-91d0-b4310675b02b&DisplayLang=en
Possible Issue Description:
- TV-Tuner card cannot keep TV-Tuner settings in memory;
- TV-Tuner card cannot be initialized in system after installing DirectX v9.0b;
- TV-Tuner card cannot capture any picture;
Official Microsoft Information:
DirectX 9.0b was released on 7/23/03 to address the MIDI security issue identified in bulletin MS03-030. A small number of non-security fixes were also included in the release. One of these fixes caused several TV Tuner capture card/driver combinations using video formats other than NTSC (NTSC-J, PAL, SECAM) to no longer initialize correctly on Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003. Symptoms include loss of capture functionality and potential inability to set/retain device capture settings. This hotfix, documented further in Knowledge Base article 825116, has been issued to correct the flaw.
I believe that your SB card is sharing IRQs with your Firewire hardwares thus causing errors. -

As far as trying to power up your device, make sure it has a good charge and then hold the button on the top of the phone and the home button on the faceplate together until the apple appears on the screen.

Hy. please help me. what's the problem? when i accessing icloud or find my friend:The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPhone.
Then you'll have to use another iOS device or Mac running OS X Lion or higher to create a new account for you to use on your phone. If you don't have one, perhaps a friend would allow you to create and account on their device (note: this will use one of their three maximum accounts). To do this, they would need to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which will delete the account from their device but not from iCloud), then allow you to sign back in with your ID to create the new account. Then tap Delete Account to delete the new account from their device, and finally, sign back in with their iCloud ID to restore their iCloud account to their device. Then you can sign in with your ID on your phone in Settings>iCloud and use the new account.

Hi, when ever I'm using 3G, on my Iphone4 sim stops working and network is lost, this started after I updated my phone with 6.0.1(10A523)version. Please help how to solve this problem. Thanks.
Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are not synced. Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are not touched with the iTunes sync process. Photos/videos in the Camera Roll can be imported by your computer which is not handled by iTunes. Most importing software includes an option to delete the photos/videos from the Camera Roll after the import process is complete. If is my understanding that some Windows import software supports importing photos from the Camera Roll, but not videos. Regardless, the import software should not delete the photos/videos from the Camera Roll unless you set the app to do so.
Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are included with your iPhone's backup. If you synced your iPhone with iTunes before the videos on the Camera Roll went missing and you haven't synced your iPhone with iTunes since they went missing, you can try restoring the iPhone with iTunes from the iPhone's backup. Don't sync the iPhone with iTunes again and decline the prompt to update the iPhone's backup after selecting Restore. -
Get wax out of iPhone 3gs speaker?
i have acidently poured candle wax into my iPhone 3gs speaker!
I have used a pin and the like to get it out from where I can see, but I am pretty sure it is also somehwere else in the system, because I have to press it on loud speaker every call I make.
Where would I get help fromm an expert in Sydney, Australia?
How do I fix it?
Thanks in advance.Not an easy fix. Search for a third-party repair shop where you live. Apple doesn't fix stuff like this, but they will swap your phone for US $149.

Please help me in this tough problem in Java...im just new in Java program
my teacher give this as a problem. so tough. we are just starting and we are now in control structures. please help me to finish this problem. And my problem is...
Write an astrology program. The user types in his or her birthday(month,day,year),
and the program responds with the user's zodiac sign, the traits associated with each sign
the user's age(in years,months,day), the animal sign for the year(e.g., Year of the Pig,
Year of the Tiger), the traits associated with each animal sign, and if the year is a leap
year or not. The dates covered for each sign can be searched through the horoscope section
of a newspaper or through the internet. Then enhance your program so that if the user is one
or two days away from the adjacent sign, the program outputs the nearest adjacent sign as well
as the traits associated with the nearest sign. The month may be entered as a number from 1 to 12
or in words, i.e.,January to December. Limit the year of the birthday from 1900 to 2010 only.
The program should allow the user to repeat the entire process as often as desired.
You can use:
import java.text.DateFormat;
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.Calendar;
please...those who are genius out there in java program...help us to pass this project. Im begging! thanks!Frowner_Stud wrote:

i am not cheating. And more of the same.
we all know that an assignment is an assignment. a homework. homework means you can raise other help from somebody so that you will know the answer.You're not asking for "help" bucko, because you've been given decent help but have chosen to ignore it. No, you're asking for someone to do the work for you, and you may call it what you want, but in anyone else's book, that's cheating.
dont be fool enough to reply if you dont know the reason why i am typing here Don't be fool enough to think that you can control who can or can't respond.
