Since updating my iPhone 4 my phone is really slow and the screen doesn't rotate to play games. What can I do?

Since updating to the 7.0.3 my screen won't rotate to play games and it takes seconds for my words to show up after typing them. Also facebook lags really bad. What can I do to fix this?

That would depend if you have the potrait orientation lock - on.
If you see a lock icon with an arrow around it on top of the home screen next to your battery then that means you have it enabled.
to disable swipe up from the bottom of the phone (near home button) to access the control center, hit that icon.

Hello there stidhambr15,
I was researching the issue you are having and recommend a couple of things. First it might be a good idea to reset the device following iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Resetting your 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 quite get the device going again, I recommend restoring the device.

Might even be a good idea to turn off the phone, reseat the SIM card, and turn it back on.

Yes, I think most of us do understand what open source software is. It sounds as if you don't. Here's some information:
Open-source software (OSS) is computer software that is available in source code form: the source code and certain other rights normally reserved forcopyright holders are provided under an open-source license that permits users to study, change, improve and at times also to distribute the software.
Open source software is very often developed in a public, collaborative manner. Open-source software is the most prominent example of open-sourcedevelopment and often compared to (technically defined) user-generated content or (legally defined) open content movements.

Yes, Tom Wu of Stanford wrote a paper on something called Secure Remote Access Protocol. It's a form of Asymetric Key Exchange and has nothing to do with hacking anything. It's actually intended to protect data.

I have only recently got my iphone, and the screen won't rotate in Safari or messaging. It works fine in games (eg Doodle Jump). The screen portrait lock is off, and i have tried turning it on and off and updating it. Why wont it rotate?

Next step is to Restore it in iTunes from your backup. If that does not work they try Restoring it as a new phone. If still no go it is a hardware failure and you will need to get it serviced.
And you are not showing the hardware lock icon on the top right of the home screen?

I dropped my Iphone 5 which resulted in it shattering and the screen was still on but it was black with only a white line through it so I couldnt access the phone however I switched over to my Droid and now I cannot send or receive messages?

Help?

Then the bottom of the support document states that if you do not have access to the device (which unfortunately because of the screen issue you do not) to contact Apple Care. That is what you need to do.

Imy phone is automatically restarting and the screen is turning blue what can i do to make it ok again??

Hey babylovesyou,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the iPhone shows a blue screen and is restarting on its own. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
If your device gets stuck during startup
When starting up, you might see the Apple logo or a red or blue screen for a long time, or your device might restart again. Try these steps:
Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
Put your device in recovery mode.
When you get the option to restore or update, select Update. This will reinstall iOS without erasing your data.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a good one,
Mario

My itunes need a update and i pluged in my ipod awhile doing the updat now my ipod won't turn on and the screen has a itunes ion on it what should i do

my itunes need a update and i pluged in my ipod awhile doing the updat now my ipod won't turn on and the screen has a itunes ion on it what should i do? i really need the help

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

after a restart it works for a time, but always slow. I went to the Applestore this afternoon and the made a check and said it would be the logicboard and they would have to change it for CHF 600 and it would be ready in 10 - 15 days

I just bought a new iPhone 5 today and the Ambient light sensor is not working. What can i do?

I just bought a new iPhone 5 today and the Ambient light sensor is not working. What can i do?

Ambient light sensors are not always perfect in their function. To test, go into darkened room, with screen OFF, Locked, tap Home button. Look at screen it should be normal for use in darkened room, turn on bright lights, the screen should brighten to help compensate. If your iPhone does not do this, then Restore iPhone with current iTunes on your computer. See if better. If still problem, make Genius reservation or set up Service and take or send to Apple for resolution under Warranty.

If an iphone cracks and the screen is all blue, does that mean I can fix that by getting the screen repaired?

Or do I have to get a new phone in general?

Since the OP's original question was not answered why doesn't the OP call Apple and find out what you should do, i.e., if you bought the iPhone in the US you should still be able to return the iPhone for repair whether that repair was within the warranty provisions.
Once you find out what the cost is to repair, if applicable, you can then make a decision as to whether you should have it repaired or buy a phone which may be less expensive than repair.

I have updated my iphone 4s to ios 6.1.3 and the batter drains completely in a few hours. The same is hapenning to my my daughters phone which I upgraded at the same time. Very disappointing Apple. This is a serious issue and there is no help.

I have updated my iphone 4s as well as my daughters iphone 4 to ios 6.1.3. After the upgrade, both of our batteries drain very fast and in a few hours. Last nite, I slept with the phone at 90% charge at around 11:00 PM and this morning by 6 AM it is compltely drained.
I tried various things including a restore but doesnt look like it works.
This is very frustrating and waste of time and feel trapped as I cannot go back to my old iOS version which was working fine. And it is a shame on Apple to do this to customers like me who have so many Apple Devices at home. For an 800 dollar device, if I have to go through this kind of problems, this would be the last one I purchased.

Thank you wjsten for your soon reply. Unfortunately on these days I'm in a country that Apple don't have any retail store here and for sake of time I prefer to fix it myself to DHL it to the nearest country to use its warranty. Do you have any idea how can I fix it? Do you think it's a software issue?

HT1766 I'm trying to update my iphone 4. I've put everything from the pho ne into itunes for backup. I can see that the updated OS is on the phone, but only for a second until the phone asks me again how I want to restore my stuff. three times

I'm updating my iphone 4. I can see that the update has been installed on the phone, but only for a second before it asks me to restore/back up from iCloud or iTunes, which I've done THREE times. It has to be something really simple...please HELP

Restore as a NEW device to test. If this solves it, that means there is some corruption in your backup file, or maybe it's one of your apps causing the trouble. If the problem is still there, you should take it to the Genius Bar at an Apple Store for evaluation.
