What's happening to my iPhone?

So I set up my own account on iTunes synced it to my laptop, and my dads friend ask me of I could do his, that was fine set it up in HIS own account. So mine and his are different BUT he keeps some of my texts and gets all the new apps I download and music.
He said to my dad he doesn't know half the stuff going on with his phone he just goes with the flow.
But how come he's getting some of my messages? That's weird I don't want him knowing what I'm sending -.-
I have the iPhone 4S up-to-date and so does he so why can he see my messages? I Know for a fact that I'm not sending them to him so what's happening? And I restored it as well any ideas?

Did you skip a step in this description? Which laptop was involved in the setup of the second iPhone? Also, check which Apple ID is active in the "iTunes & App Store." You may have set up a separate Apple ID, but it sounds like yours is the one entered on the iPhone.

What is happening to my iPhone 5?

Hello everyone. I live in Colombia and my phone service is Claro. On November, I got the iPhone 5 and I had 1 year of warranty for it. Last week, I dropped my iphone into this bowl of water by accident but I took it instantly and when I looked at it, the phone was still on so I used a towel and dried it. I didn't know if I could press any buttons because maybe it'd make it worse so I didn't press any buttons. However, few minutes after that, the whole screened turned negative so my sister suggested to put it on dry rice. I left it there for several hours. When I took it back, I connected it to the charger and it turned on and everything was working perfectly except the signal, it kept saying "Searching.." so I tried turning it off and reseting the iPhone but it didn't work. After a few hours, it died. I connected it again to the charger and the Apple sign appreared but it was gone after a little while and it didn't turn on.
I took it to my phone service support and they checked it and since there was water involved, they told me they couldn't fix it because it was out of the warranty. Then I went to an Apple Store but they told me they didn't fix iPhones so I came home and I connected it to my Macbook Pro and it turned on with the sign of connecting to iTunes so I did and a pop up came up saying it was in Recovery Mode and that I had to restore it so I did even if everything will get deleted and right now it's currently "iPhone is currently downloading software for iPhone" so what exactly is happening to my iPhone 5? Is it dead forever? Can it still live? What should I do so it lives? I'm so sad and worried, haha. Help me out, please and thank you!

Your cost in Columbia to do an an out-of-warranty replacement will be different than $229. You should have left the iPhone in raw rice for 4 - 5 days, not hours, it was undoubtedly still wet internally when you started using it and caused damage to the iPhone.

What REALLY happened with the iPhone 4S 64gb?

Like everyone else I feel completely let down that I didn't get my phone on launch day, but unlike everyone else (according to most of the posts I saw) I just really NEED to know JUST WHAT HAPPENED?
My store (in SE Wisconsin) seems to harbor a bunch of great people as employees and I'm not going to bash them, rather I would just appreciate some education to their employees by corporate. ALL I WANT TO KNOW IS WHY DIDN'T THE BEST BUY STORES GET THE IPHONE 4S 64GB ALONG WITH ALL OF THE REST OF THE IPHONE 4S'S.
This seems to be the situation across the country and there are a ton of people extremely unhappy. All we are getting from the front lines (ie the employees) is that the Apple distributors didn't send them? Really? There's no information anywhere about why Best Buy didn't get the phone.
I believe that if we, the customers, got the information about why we didn't get our phones on the launch day, a lot of people would be less unhappy. Also an estimated time as to when we will finally get them would be much appreciated. (Maybe trying to remedy this in the future would be a good idea too)
To sum it up:
1. Why didn't Best Buy get the iPhone 4s 64gb with all of the other iPhones
2. Please let us know what occurred to make this happen
3. Please let us know when we will get our phones, or at least when Best Buy will
4. Apologize
5. Don't let this happen again!!!

i live in sterling heights MI and have experienced similar problems.
i ordered a black 64g (at&t) iphone 4s for myself and a white 32g (at&t) iphone 4s for my wife. i arrived at the store 10 minutes after the store opened on the friday to pre-order. i was informed that there weren't many people before me who had pre-ordered through any carriers. the sales person who helped me said NOTHING about any type of snafu. he even told me stories on how they overstaffed the store (utica MI) for the verizon release and that they sold less the 10 iphone 4's on release day. he took my order and while taking it, the store manager (who the sales person advised me who had called) called him while he was helping me and informed him that the orders were to be filled in order received. wham, bam i'm out of the store as happy as can be expecting to get my hands on the phone that will make my wife a little happy camper. ok, i was pretty excited too. well, on thursday oct 13th i get a call from "sam" from best buy around 8 pm and he tells me that my phone won't be there and they'll 'probably' get another shipment later in the day. so instantly my blood begins to boil because i'm thinking to myself.......1. i only went to best buy for the $50 gift card per iphone 2 if i knew that there would be ANY issue with me possibly not getting the phone i would've just ordered from at&t or the apple store. 3 i too have spent oogles of $$$$$ at best buy and have come to expect better. finally 4th of all the way there was NO explination on WHY they didn't get either order just angered me further. since my wife has called every day and has received 3 different excuses over the four days she has called (since thur night)
i work with a lot of people who depend on cell phones and BELIEVE me.....each one will know about best buy selling items under the assumption i would've had it on launch day, and they can't even provide the item or a reason why they're not there.
whoever is in charge of the store/region/company should probably know how passionate people are with their iphone/apple products and shouldn't have led us on to believe that we would have one on lanuch day. it's just bad business! here i'm gonna take all these pre-orders and i have NO clue how many.....or even what we're going to get.
finally i'm in the catch 22......do i cancel the order and lose my place in line with the possibility of getting it any day here (that's a liberal use of the phrase any day.....probably 2 weeks) or do i cancel the order and go with the surefire at$t or apple and KNOW what i'm getting it?
from here forth best buy can $#&$ off with their pre-orders and products.....i'll go somewhere else.

My iPhone 4S has stopped receiving iMessages, cannot send/load any pictures over whatsapp, cannot join the wifi in my house anymore. What has happened to my iPhone i haven't made any changes?

My iPhone 4S has stopped receiving/sending iMessages, cannot send/load any pictures over whatsapp and cannot join the wifi in my house anymore.
Essentially all the things I use my phone for have now stopped working. I constantly have 3G connected (even though i dont want to use it, i want to connect to the wifi in my house) but still when I try to download/ send a picture over whatsapp it comes up with an error message saying the server is unverified, or something equally ridiculous.
I deleted the app so i could reinstall it (as if that would help), but the app store is started saying "unable to connect", despite 3G, so that bright idea died out pretty sharpish.
Whenever i try to turn on iMessage, it asks for my Apple ID password, which I know I've typed in correctly because I reset the **** thing about 4 times due to it apparently being "incorrect". Even so, it repeatedly asks for the password over and over as soon as I've entered it, saying it was "unable to connect" before a final "incorrect password" message pops up just to add an extra smack of annoyance.
I haven't changed a single setting on my iPhone whatsoever. It just suddenly started spiralling into what is now £28/month-worth of pure frustration.
I don't even have any music or photos on it as I had to free up 3.5GB of space on the **** thing to allow it to update, naively thinking that would solve the problem, but alas it did not.
I have seen a few questions posted like this one, usually just one of the problems I have, but I seem to have rounded up the whole bunch (lucky me). None of the previously posted questions have received any replies.
Can some please help me! Honestly, if i see another "unable to..." or "unverified source" pop up again I'll probably smash the thing against the side of my house.
Cheers.

On your iPad, go to [Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings] Once that is done, re-connect your iPad to your wifi network.

What will happen to my iPhone contacts if I choose to "Delete from my iPhone" the previously synced contacts from the iCloud?

When I updated my iPhone 3GS to i06, my contacts were messed up. Some of my contacts were lost, and one of my contacts which I had two numbers for, a new one and an old number, now only has one number and it is the old one. So, will I get my original contacts back if I choose the "Delete from my iPhone" choice?

Regarding the first question:
- The contacts on my iPhone right now, due to the connection with iCloud, are numbers that came from the iCloud account (which, unfortunately is my husband's account - I didn't realize it). Although we have some of the same people on our contacts, his, of course, contains his business contacts as well. Before the connection, my contacts were my social contacts and my business contacts. It looks like that not all my contacts from before the iCloud connection are there as some are missing and all of them have missing punctuation marks. All my photos that were on the contacts of the people are missing as well.
- I will have to check and see if my contacts are on the iCloud account also. Haven't checked that yet.
By the way, this all happened when I loaded the i06 update. That's when it asked me if I wanted to store it on iCloud. And when I clicked on it, everything changed on my contacts.

What is happening to my iphone 4 screen? please help me :(

please help me. it started since 2 days ago. and i dont know why

Looks like it's broken.
Have you tried a reset (hold HOME and SLEEP until an Apple logo appears)?
Have you tried a restore using iTunes?
If neither of these fix it your phone most likely has experienced a hardware failure.

What can possibly happen to my iPhone if I keep changing two SIM cards again and again?

I Have two SIM cards. The first one is MPT, and it cuts Internet fees per minute. The second one is Telenor, which cuts per MB usage.
I Bought the second sim to play Internet games (Total Conquest, DH5). Those games don't use much MB.
The first one don't have a good internet connection, but the second one does.
Here's the thing.
Surfing Safari and searching apps and games in App Store use a lot of data. Other apps like Flipboard and Facebook also use a lot of MB. So the phome bills go up when I use the second one. But its perfect to play games with.
Surfing Safari and App Store also use time and MB. Playing games also take a lot of time. The first one have a bad connection and it's a trouble for playing games like Total Conquest, my main game.
I Want to use both of them on the same iPhone (i only have one). Like changing again and again. About everyday. What can happen to my iPhone?

Michael's description is sound, the SIM cards may take a bit of wear over time withthis...
You could get a 3G/4G wifi hotspot and give your computer/phone the better data rate that way.
You need to talk to your ISP about how your connection is unstable. Run tests using an Ethernet cable and wifi (to see if the numbers are approx the same)
Provide them your results from pingtest.net and speedtest.net to show your connection is having issues.
Things that might indicate a problem:
>100ms ping
1-2mbps or slower on download/upload means the connection might need repairing.

I talked with a tech today and he said I cloud is having problems which should be resolved shortly.
In the mean time I used the .me smtp server settings which allowed me to send mail.

What all happens if I reset everything (Content and Settings) on my iPhone 4?

The day before yesterday I have discovered a problem where I have an app stuck on 'waiting...' And the app refuses to either download or delete. I've tried everything, syncing my phone to the computer, trying to redownload it on the App Store, but nothing seems to be working. I'm now assuming the only way to get rid of the app is to reset all content and settings off of my phone, which would be the last resort for me and is something I'd rather not do. But if I do reset everything on my iPhone 4, I would like to know all 'side effects' of this action and if it affects any data concerning credit card information or if my number or data plan will need to be added again. It would be very nice to find a way to avoid resetting my phone and delete the 'waiting..' App, if anyone could give me any information about that problem. If not, it would still be great if I could know what will happen to my phone if I reset it. Thank you so much, any and all information would be greatly appreciated !!

What you are describing as "reset" is actually called a Restore.
FIrst try doing a Reset by holding the power and Home buttons down for 5-10 seconds until you see Apple logo on the screen. This does not erase any of your data or setting, but often helps with problems like yours.
Restore Is a more involved process, but you'll still be OK if you follow instructions.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

I never used icloud before so there is no data to back up from. I just spoke to the apple store and they said that if I do plug it in, all the data will be swiped....is there a program I can use to transfer my data from my phone to computer without loosing it all ???
