Upgraded to iOS7 - WIFI still greyed out.. Any fixes?

I previously had the problem on the previous iOS 6.1.4 or whatever the most up to date was.
I've now upgraded to iOS7, reset network settings, reinstalled the operating system, full phone resets etc.
Unfortunately I STILL have the problem that my WIFI is greyed out!
I'm running an iPhone 4S by the way.
Can't believe for one minute, that after all the problems on the previous iOS that a fix hasn't been put in place - so if anyone knows of one, i'd really appreciate it.
That android devil is becoming more angelic!
I've also had my phone just over a year, so I assume that the warranty is now expired?? I know - i've had the problems for some time and I really should have got my arse into gear and took it in for repair before now!
Regards,
Andrew.

I guess I don't have to wait
I got it fixed

  • IPhone 4S took a dumb after upgrading to IOS7/ WIFI is greyed out

    I loved the fact that I own Apple IPhone4S . For the past 1 1/2 year I had no problem with this phone
    I went to restore thinking that I will restore my phone to original to try to sell it and get the new IPone 5 .
    Well the restore took me from IOS6.13 to have the IOS7 which then I tried to see that all my info was deleted which it was but then I found the Wifi and Bluetooth is not working.
    I tried the reset the network and it didn't work, then I start doing my search to find out it's issue with heating my wifi with the new update which some one said to put it in freezer for 15 minutes which I did that and sure enough it worked for few minutes untill the phone got heated again.
    I even tried to restore it from Itune thinking some how the software is corrupted and that didn't help.
    Like I said before I love my Iphone and I'm hoping soon that Apple support will come up with solution soon and to tell us that 1 yes one HERO came up with solution and you need to upgrade your software that will solve this problem.

  • TS1559 Wifi still greyed out?

    Solutions i've tried to fix this problem:
    - Reset All Settings
    - Reset Network Settings
    - Turning iPhone off and back on
    - Restoring iPhone on iTunes
    - Turning Airplane mode on and back off
    This problem started happening after the 6.1.1 and 6.1.2 update. My wifi was working perfectly fine before those two updates. When i updated to the 6.1.1, i tried the solutions and it worked but it only lasted for a couple minutes until i updated it to the 6.1.2 is when the solutions had no effect on fixing the wifi whatsoever.
    I've heard about the freezer trick that supposedly fixes the wifi, i haven't tried it yet but not sure if it'll actually work but it's one of my only options left.
    I know that i could probably just take my iPhone to the apple store but the closest apple store is pretty far and i want to find a way to fix this right now because i've been dealing with this for about 4 weeks at least.
    Anybody got any other solutions or have the same problem?

    Did you update router firmware?

  • Can I go back to my 3gs from my 4s? Wifi still greyed out after all resets.

    I have had it with all the resets and restores I have performed to get wifi on my 4s.  Out of warantee but still8 months on my contract. My old 3gs is available.  How do I go back to it until my contract expires?

    See if this helps for wifi.

    if not, it is a hardware failure. Contact Genius bar for evaluation and possible replacement.
    If the iPhone 4S is paired to your contract, talk to your Carrier.

    i have an iphone 4s. Recently the wifi settings greyed out when i was using ios 7.0.4. When i connected it to itunes, it showed that update your iphone. At an apple forum they said that updating will solve this problem. I just updated it to 8.0.2 but still wifi is greyed out. In settings>general>about, there is an option of wifi address which shows N/A. What is the problem? Is is the hardware? Kindly guide me.

  • I cannot turn on my wifi and have tried everything its still greyed out

    I reset network settings, reset all settings and made sure my phone software was up to date however it is still greyed out and i cannot switch it back on. is there anything else i can do? or do i need to take it back to the shop

    Is this true for all WiFi areas or only at home?  If all WiFi then it needs to go to the Apple store genius bar for testing by the techs.
    If only at home, have you worked through http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398

  • Why Apple is silent about 4s wifi getting greyed out and not responding to this issue? many ppl suffer from this and this is absurd!

    Why Apple is silent about iPhone 4s wifi getting greyed out with iOS updates 8.0.2 and 8.1 and did not respond to this issue officially? Many people are suffering from this affected service. How can you trust us to buy new iPhones when you stop supporting us with the ones we have since they are still upgradable to the latest iOS.
    Is there any chance that we will be given the support and would this issue be fixed with any upcoming updates? My iPhone when its battery is drained totally and I start it again the WIFI works until I try to choose another network or somehow I disable it then blackout!
    This is definitely a software issue that we never had problems before this update.
    Show us that you care for your products at least and provide us with a solution please.

    That doesn't help at all.. I can only have it enabled if the battery gets drained out totally then when I restart it the WIF is on. then back greyed out.. that is not a serious reply, really!
    Yes, it's a serious reply. Did you actually read the information at the link I posted? Especially the last sentence? The fact that it appeared when you updated to iOS 8 has no bearing on the validity of the article. It is not specific to any version.

  • Ios 6 wifi now greyed out, unable to turn on

    Upgraded both myself and partners 4s handsets and ipads. ipads and one handset fine, my wifi has greyed out, Tried all the usual help guides any other suggestions? rebooted, reinstalled, reset network etc am baffled and pretty hacked off tbh!!!!

    LISTEN EVERYONE WHO HAS PROBLEMS WITH WIFI WHEN UPDATING iOS6
    If your wifi is greyed out:
    you need to go to the apple store. You're wifi chip has expired! Wifi chip experation dates were checked upon the new software, that is why some  iPhones still work and others don't. They will replace it for you free of charge (don't quote me on this). It was free for me.
    I myself have an iPhone4S and they told me exactly this.

    My iPhone Wifi is greyed out.
    In Uruguay in Cellular Center (+598 2 903 3333) that is where I buyed it told me it has no solution, it´s a problem of hardware accepted by Apple, that Apple change the phone in this cases, but that they can´t change it by another new one because their warrantee is 3 months and I bought in december, 2012. It cost me US$ 1,250 and I want a solution because I saw in the Apple web that iPhone warrantee is 1 year and I am still covered by it.
    I have the invoice dated December 24, 2012.
    Do you have any solution to my problem?
    It is hard to believe that a so expensive iPhone has a life of 6 months.
    Do I need to take my iPhone to anywhere they can solve its problem?

  • Macbook pro wifi symbol greyed out and will not recognize networks

    My Macbook Pro has had an issue since this past fall of having its wifi symbol greyed out with an "X". It also does not recognize wifi networks as in simply no networks show up. Talked to Apple last week and they said to upgrade to Yosemite, but I am still having this issue. Help?

    Have you used DVDs that have different region codes?  It may be that your DVD drive is locked for a region code different from what Netflix is programmed for.
    Ciao.

  • My iPad 2 3g wifi is greyed out. Bluetooth connection and celluar work great. wifi address N/A...

    Wow... I've researched so much about this topic.
    The story is, the ipad was on top on a car and it fell off while driving down the road.  The driver realized what happened, but it was to late.  Several 18 wheelers were behind him and it was TOAST!   Luckily he turned it on and it worked!   So, he asks me to fix it. 
    I replace the shattered screen and everything was great!  Except the wifi was greyed out... I did almost everything from hard reset, to updates, to reformat it etc.  
    No luck...   then I bought 2 new wifi replacements and no luck... except when I installed the first wifi replacement, it worked!  I connected it to my wireless at home and left for a little bit then came back and it wasn't working!  I've tried everything... reconnected it to the chip onboard...
    So, I decided to take it apart again and install the 2nd wifi antenna i bought, still no luck.
    Not sure... maybe the wireless chip it connects to is bad.
    Just wondering why the bluetooth is working and the wireless isn't...
    Thanks for any help!!!

  • Wifi icon greyed out, but connected

    Just got a new iMac and everything was running smoothly, until I noticed the wifi icon in the menu bar is greyed out. When I click on it, my connection shows with all darkened bars in the list, but the icon at the top is still greyed out. Can anyone help with this?

    Have you by chance moved any system files?
    Click the AirPort icon in the status menu bar to make sure it's turned on.
    Could be your router. Check out this article >  http://osxdaily.com/2011/07/22/wifi-dropping-in-os-x-lion-fixes/

  • My wifi is greyed out on my iPhone 4S

    My wifi is greyed out on my iPhone 4S and tried almost everything like putting it in the freezer and the hair drying method and draining the battery and restore my phone and I even contacted the Apple Store and they said I had to pay $19.99 to get it fixed but they dont guarantee that it will work. So I dont want to pay for something that they arent even sure about. I have been looking for a solution to this for weeks now and I dont want to keep using my cellular data and get charged for going over my limit! HELPPPPP!

    It seems you contacted AppleCare who would have charged you a fee of $19.99 for troubleshooting the issue as you must have been out of your 90 days complimentary phone support. The $69.99 would have been for AppleCare Protection plan which would extend your hardware coverage for another year making it 2 from the date of purchase.
    To have your phone evluated at an Apple Retail Store is completely. Also if you are still within your 1 year limited warranty and you need a replacement that would be free of charge. The only time you need to pay for a replacement would be if there was physical or liquid damage to the phone or depending on your country/region if you are out of your 1 year limited warranty.
