WHY DOESNT MY IPHONE WORK TO A SERVICE NETWORK

for some reason my iphone 3gs does not connect to the rogers network and my sim card is inside what do i do in order to get it to work?

Have you tried contacting Rogers? http://www.rogers.com/web/support/supportwireless
Where did you get the phone? Has it worked on this network before? Are you getting an error message? We need a few more details to begin troubleshooting...

  • Why doesnt the Blackberry work?

    100's if not 1000's of people are having problems with there Black Berry phones.
    Youll find search results such as Nuked berry, brick berry or dumb phone.
    Blackberry technical support, had difficulty in handling an enquiry attempting to pass of the enquiry/complaint to the carrier who are not responsible for the incompetance of Blackberry, who call there faulty devices mobile/cell phones.
    There simply not up to the standard of the rest of the world.
    Why doesnt my phone work?
    BB(Blackberry)'s Desktop Software, is not help, being unable to connect with my device, even though it detects it & erases files, & attempts to connect with the device, even though my computer immediately detects my device as soon as I plug it into the USB port.

    So thousands of problems, out of millions of users, dooms the entire brand? Seems like of bit of a stretch to me. Also irrelevant...only your specific issues matter, not the rest of the world.

    Your report is a little difficult to clearly understand...hence difficult to provide you with useful guidance. So, the simplest thing I can recommend is to, on a PC (you cannot do this on MAC):
    1) Make sure you have a current and complete backup of your BB...you can find complete instructions via the link in my auto-sig below.
    2) Uninstall, from your PC, any BB OS packages
    3) Make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed
    http://us.blackberry.com/software/desktop.html
    4) Download and install, to your PC, the BB OS package you desire:
    http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
    It is sorted first by carrier -- so if all you want are the OS levels your carrier supports, your search will be quick. However, some carriers are much slower than others to release updates. To truly seek out the most up-to-date OS package for your BB, you must dig through and find all carriers that support your specific model BB, and then compare the OS levels that they support.
    5) Delete, on your PC, all copies of VENDOR.XML...there will be at least one, and perhaps 2, and they will be located in or similarly to (it changes based on your Windows version) these folders:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
    C:\Users\(your Windows UserName)\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
    6a) For changing your installed BB OS level (upgrade or downgrade), you can launch the Desktop Software and connect your BB...the software should offer you the OS package you installed to your PC.
    6b) Or, for reloading your currently installed BB OS level as well as for changing it, bypass the Desktop Software and use LOADER.EXE directly, by proceeding to step 2 in this process:
    http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Device-Software/How-To-Reload-Your-Operating-Syste...
    Note that while written for "reload" and the Storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade, or reload any BB device model -- it all depends on the OS package you download and install to your PC.
    If, during the processes of 6a or 6b, your BB presents a "507" error, simply unplug the USB cord from the BB and re-insert it...don't do anything else...this should allow the install to continue.
    You may also want to investigate the use of BBSAK (bbsak.org) to perform the wipe it is capable of.
    You may also want to try the "Bare Bones OS Reload Procedure" to attempt to narrow down the precise causal item:
    Load your OS "bare bones"...if anything is optional, do not install it.
    If the behavior presents immediately, then try a different OS with step 1
    If the behavior does not immediately present, then run for as long as it takes for you to be sure that the behavior will not present.
    Add one thing -- no matter how tempting, just one.
    If the behavior does not present immediately, then again run for long enough to be sure it will not have the same problem
    Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all things are loaded or the behavior presents
    When the behavior presents, you know the culprit...the last thing you loaded.
    If the behavior does not re-present, then you know that either step 1 or 2 cured it.
    If the behavior presents no matter what, then you likely have a hardware level issue for which no amount of OS or software can cure.

    http://crackberry.com/blackberry-101-lecture-12-how-reload-operating-system-nuked-blackberry
    If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:

  • TS4062 why doesnt my iphone want to connect to itunes?

    why doesnt my iphone 4 want to connect to itunes?

    I must say I'm most frustrated by apple at the moment! I've tried everything that's been suggested by your so called APPLE Specialists/Bots regardless of my frustrations this is my problem both my itunes on my desktop and laptop or up to date and my ios is updated to on my iphone 5 so this rules out old software issues, my iphone 5 connects to the desktop but not my laptop so now i must leave the comfort of my living room to move all my files from my laptop to my desktop in order to have the files i want onto my iphone and yet this goes against apple policy as i remember apple is supposed to have this slogan that states simplicity for ios 7 yet im seeing nothing simple about been online for 3 hours trying to get a solution to my problem yet all that can be said it go check out iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for OS X
    no support to the actual problem
    im starting to see why so many people move to android
    i wonder what kind of feedback i will receive from this thread or how long it will stay live for or if it will even go live.
    from a really irritated apple consumer.

    Hello nataligrinman,
    It sounds like you are unable to turn on your iPhone, and when you plug it into the computer you see the Apple symbol appear then disappear quickly. I would start by resetting your iPhone with this process:
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If that does not correct the issue, I would next put the device into recover mode, and restore it with iTunes:
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device

  • Why does my iphone 5 have no service

    why does my iphone 5 have no serivce?
    im with orange/tmobile which is EE but i have had no service all this morning. just wondering if someone could help

    You may need to contact your carrier. I recently upgraded and the new phone activated automatically and the old one deactivated very soon after I turned on the new phone. May be different with different carriers.

  • Why would my iPhone work perfectly fine but when it gets to 48% it randomly shuts off?

    Why would my iPhone randomly shut off at 48%? Then say its at 1%. The only way I can use it is if it ha more than 48% battery

    This is usually the feature of faulty battery. Make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple Store for free quick battery diagnostic testing. If there is Warranty or AppleCare this will be covered.

  • Why doesnt my Iphone wifi work?

    When I am at school, I get the schols wifi and when I'm walking home I get the wifi of the neighborhood. As I get closer to my house my wifi pops up but the moment I set itno the house all five of our wifi's are gone and wont come back. So basically I get wifi everywhere but my house. It's just my iphone 4 too! My Mothers ipod and latop, my brothers Iphone and laptop and MY OWN laptop is connected to the wifi. It always worked until now! Also my phone as recently suffered from water damage a few weeks back but the wifi still worked after that, it's just been recently! Sorry for all the typing but Im hoping someone could helo me please!!!!

    its not hardware issue its possibleyour network name is common  like dlink404 try resetting your network settings on the iphone by goping to settings >general >reset >reset netowrk settings . if that didnt work try changing the netork name to unique one like "hill family" , that will improve your connectivity , you might have to contact the manufacturer of your router to perform factory reset on the router and set a new network name ,

  • Why doesnt jsp:include work?

    Hello all
    I am trying to include a header file in my jsp page, and then include a servlet on another server. Question is, is this possible? In my code below, the header file is shown but the results of the servlet, which resides on a different server, are not. Any idea why the second line doesnt work?
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    <%@ include file="header.jsp" %>
    <jsp:include page="http://differentserver:1080/servlet/Docu?dir=AdminProc" flush="true" />

    Thanks for the clarification. I am actually trying to convert some PHP to JSP, and idea what the equivalent of
    <?php
         include("header.php");
         include("http://differentserver:1080/servlet/DocuServ?dir=Procedures");
    ?>
    is in JSP?

    Hello dlanibarnhill,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    So it sounds like suddenly your wifi at home is not being seen by just this 1 device.
    I found this article about troubleshooting wifi connectivity on an ios device.
    iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and then on again.If unable to do so, see this article.
    Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and Cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and indicate that they are connected to the Internet.If not, refer to your network administrator or ISP for assistance.
    Restart your iOS device.
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you are connected. Then tap and Forget this Network. Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network again.
    Note: You will need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your desired network requires one.
    Turn your Wi-Fi router off and then on again2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
    Update your device to the latest version of software.
    Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware2.For AirPort Base Stations, see this article for information about firmware updates.
    If needed, I would do this troubleshooting next:
    Unable to locate a Wi-Fi network
    Check to see if the network is available by tapping Settings > Wi-Fi and choosing from the available networks listed there.
    Note: It may take a few seconds for the Wi-Fi network name to appear.
    Move closer to your wireless router ( access point) and attempt to locate the Wi-Fi network again.
    If you do not see the network you would like to join, you may be attempting to connect to a hidden network. Learn how to join a hidden network.
    Supported Wi-Fi configurations vary by iOS device model. Find out which standards your device supports3.
    Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Note: This will reset all network settings including: previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords, recently used Bluetooth accessories, VPN and APN settings.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • O2UK: Why is my iPhone constantly picking up service, and then saying 'No Service' or 'Searching'?!

    My iPhone 3GS searches for signal, gets some signal then it drops out and says no-service and then starts searching again.. it worked fine yesterday.. and this morning only since i got to work has it stopped. I've even walked down to the local shop to try and get signal so its not the building i'm in. My partner has the same phone with the same carrier (O2) and has no problem.
    I am on O2 Simplicity, just upgraded from a blackberry.. at this rate looks like im going to have to go back to it beacuse i cannot use this phone like this..
    I will go to the applestore tomorrow.

    Maybe you are currently in an area of low signal? Or inside a thick-walled building?
    In my work office my phone does this as they have some tin-foil type insulation which the phone signals can't penetrate well.

  • Why doesnt the webcam work on my DV6 I have downloaded the driver again but still no good

    Still no answers about why it doesnt work it seems crazy that this isnt simply solved, it doesnt leave a good impression of HP. Oh  and the USB ports stiill dont work despite troubleshooting, reloading and downloading drivers. Not a good impression at all

    You can try removing the app and reinstalling; that sometimes cures the problem. If not, then contact the developer as diesel suggested.
