Why do I have to restore my Iphone 5s once a week?
I have a 16GB Iphone 5s. Almost once a week I have to restore my phone. Here is the list of things that it does:
1) It restarts on its own for no reason.
2) I can't delete apps and the screen freezes
3)It will ask me for my icloud password all the time
4)It will loose my contact names in my text message section
5)It will not send a texts sometimes and people sending me texts will say msg fail
6) I completely lost Verizon service and had to restore
7)Goes to the restore screen to plug into a computer on its own
8)Randomly displays device storage almost full. I have had this phone since August Help?!
That is really odd, slimbwoozha. All of those things should not be occurring. Prior to performing the restore, are you performing a full factory reset of your phone? Do these issues still occur after the factory reset, without performing the restore?

Why do I have to restore my iphone repeatedly?
My iphone keeps dying and I have to restore my iphone repeatedly. I just restored as a new devise last week. Today I tried uninstalling and installing an app that refused to open and all my apps disappeared even the pre-installed ones like mesaages, itunes, phone and such? Is it time to get a new phone?
I still have a fully operational original iPhone so while it absolutely can, that doesn't mean that it will. There's a number of things that could cause this. You could check with your local Apple Store to see if it can be repaired but personally I would just get a new one in your scenario.

When I turned on iCloud backup now when I synch to iTunes it asks if I want to set up as new phone or restore from backup. Why? I have been synching this iPhone to this computer fine since I got my iPhone 4S.
1. set up as new
2. transfer you wife's purchases.
3. Just in case create one computer back up manually.
Enjoy. -

My all contacts and all data is in this mobile. Now Iam unable to contact anyone. Please help me. How can I sort it out?

Wazir AliWell, if you did it yourself, then there is a chance that you damaged some other component inside the device that is causing your issue. The iPhone's are not user serviceable, and once you have opened the device you have voided any warranty and post-warranty support from Apple. I would try Google to see if you can find any other way to repair your device, as Apple will no longer look at it.

I updated my iphone 5 and now it is telling me to be able to work i had to connect it to itunes and itunes it telling me that i have to restore my iphone. what can i do? i dont want to lose all my pictures and stuff like that.
Something went wrong with the update, this can and does happen with every version of iOS.
There is nothing wrong with the update.
Simply restore the device via iTunes on the computer.
If iTunes is stating it will take hours to update, that indicates an extremely slow Internet connection and is likely the reason the OTA update failed. -
Every time i connect my iphone to itunes and trying to do a backup or get the new update it says i have to restore my iphone. and then that doesnt work, i tried to reinstall itunes but it doesnt work. i get this all the time. fix it please.
iTunes states " There's a problem with your Iphone, please contact apple service center " Also i took my iphone to a local service man and he told me the IMEI code has been corrupted and there's nothing that can be done about it. Please help, if you have any solution.
Thank you -

You are in Recovery Mode.
You need to connect to iTunes and restore.
Hopefully you have a backup. -

You should be importing all pics to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera.

I forgot my password\i get my phone back and i forgot my password so i read that you have to restore your iphone so when i tried restoring it it said the i phone cannot be restored at this time something about cant be contacted with the server and i youtubed how to fix that and it did but when i tried it again it said error (3194) so i went back and it said it cant be restored at this time please im paying 100$ per month and i cant use my i phone 4 hep....
Error 3194 most often means that your Computer Hosts file is blocking Apple from signing your firmware. Search on your computer for the word 'Hosts'. Open the Hosts with a word processor. If gs.apple.com is present your Hosts file is blocking Apple, and therefore giving Error 3194. A stock Hosts file does not have gs.apple.com in it. If want Apple to Restore your Firmware you will need to remove the lines with gs.apple.com in them.
