iPhone 4S gray WiFi outside

Hey, if after a year of using my iPhone 4S my wifi on the device suddenly renounced me. Initially, it started randomly disconnecting from the current wifi network to which it was connected. That would happen rarely perhaps 1 to 3 times per month, but after a few months or so it would disconnect from the wireless network and lose their ability to find wifi networks. Which means that he could not find any wifi network until I rebooted the device. This continued for some time and was not really a problem because it happened from time to time. Then one day it has been disconnected from a wifi network and I rebooted the device. After the reboot it the wifi icon in the gray Control Panel. He had left the wifi symbol in thought and so I rebooted the unit again and it was fine. Now, it's happened quite regularly for a few days, until the icon completely turned grey. It has become a gray circle dark with nothing inside. No matter how many times I restart the wifi device does not light. I tried to force the reboot of the device, but that does not work, also I even reset all the network settings that do not work too. I erased all of the iTunes device and that he did not set too! This problem has also begun after that I updated the phone to IOS 9.0. I searched on the web for different types of solutions, but it is either the iPhone being heated by a hairdryer or being stored in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or more. I don't think that these are very good methods so please can someone help me solve this problem!

PS: If a picture is needed I can provide that too

Thanks for reading this and for your help.

Hi Azman3456,

You seem to have done most of the troubleshooting on your own. When you restore the device to factory settings, you set up as new, or did you restore your data from a backup?

If you have restored it from a backup, I advise you to try to restore it again and set it up as new.

When a device is restored to the factory settings and set up like new and the question comes up, it means that there is a hardware problem. You can go to your operator, an Apple Retail Store or Apple authorized Service provider depending on the country that you find, or call Apple to set up a repair with a delivery service if it is possible in your country.

  • Icon "Are the selected markers to separate the export audio files" is grayed out outside in the markers window. The titles show starts but no end of times, and yet time is calculated.

    I have a large wav file to finish securities as a mixer and inserted the CD markers where I want the marked pistes. Icon "Are the selected markers to separate the export audio files" is grayed out outside in the markers window. The titles show starts but no end of times, and yet time is calculated. Why can't I export those items marked as separate files?

    You must make the markers of track in regions for the Export of work function. Make sure that you have placed a marker at the end of the file, as well as at the beginning of each track. Then select all the markers in the marker list by left clicking the first then shift left click on the last. You can then merge markers in the channels using the comb as icon (3rd from left) at the top of the list of markers. You will then be able to export the lines marked as separate files.

  • iPhone 6 GPS | WIFI | BlueTooth low or NO Signal, out of warranty. Options?

    A took my phone in to the apple store 3 days ago, customer service agent said that my phone was weird as the firmware settings being a Verizon phone and no active carrier State. But I've been with ATT and same contract life of this phone, etc.

    He explained that a few weeks ago, I noticed really inaccurate GPS navigation / does not work. Then it is gradually degraded, now he can only determine my region approximate place of about 5 miles. Bluetooth started getting weaker and weaker to the point where it must be my headset in 2 PI or he cutt out / disconnects.

    WiFi is probably about 50% of what it was before regarding the speed and battery life, it seems the least affected but still very visible, will all the minutes and include to reconnect.

    We did a full AND fresh network iOS install and set up as a new phone, I have not restored from backup because I wanted to see if it was a software problem. But this isn't the case, because questions are still there even after reformatting.

    The iPhone is about 2 months out of warranty, what are my options? I see that you can send it in for repair, but I can't really go without a phone for 3-5 days. What is the cost of a replacement unit, all out of contract price?

    Ideas, any help would be greatly appreciated. My upgrade to pro rata happen att just before the iPhone 7 which is close but still a little further, trying to figure out how to wait outside until then with the least pain and money spent.

    While you were on the Apple store, you should have summer offer an out-of-warranty replacement. It would be kind of replacement and the cost for an iPhone 6 would be to $299.

  • iPhone 7 more buttons outside does not

    I've had my iPhone 7 + for about 2 weeks now. Every once in awhile all buttons outside to stop, volume up/down, power, home. The home button will still record and push and give the sensation of taptic and touchID works. The phone itself still works and I can answer texts and which do not use notifications.

    The couple spent time he did, he came upon her in about 4-5 minutes, however it was about half an hour and still nothing. I want to restart my phone, but the switch does not work.

    Has anyone seen this issue or know how to fix?

    Thanks in advance.

    I just experienced the same problem on my iPhone 7, I think it's a bug in iOS, but I am using iOS 10.0.2. Power + button low Volume allowed me to turn it off then turn it back on... Apple please fix this bug!

  • Since my 10.0.2 upgrade on my iPhone 5 my Wifi doesn't connect anywhere except home! This has never been a problem in the past I have connected everywhere wherever I was going to automatically! Is - this rare?

    Since my upgrade to 10.0.2 on my iPhone 5 my phone only connects to Wifi when I'm at home (cancelling the purpose of a MOBILE phone). This was never a problem in the past a my phone automatically and I received and could send emails, messages and use messenger etc automatically. Is - this rare?

    Hi John,.

    Please visit Apple support communities.

    I see that your iPhone 5 is not connect to other Wi - Fi networks after update to iOS 10. We offer troubleshooting tips.

    Since your wireless network is working, but you cannot connect to other networks, start with the next step in If your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch connects to a Wi-Fi network:

    Reset your network settings. Tap Settings > general > reset > reset network settings. This also resets the Wi - Fi networks and passwords, cell parameters and VPN and APN settings you used before.

    Sincerely.

  • Why my new iPad and iPhone massively have wifi slowly when Bluetooth is turned on?

    I tried to watch reboot etc until I found a post saying that the Bluetooth is originally the devices have a much slower connection. I turned Bluetooth and got 65 instead of the download speed of 11 gig. However, my watch Apple pencil and pebble being disabled, is very important to me, so it's not a viable option for me. What can I do? A fix is even planned? ! Running the latest iOS with all the patches etc in place. Tried to close everything and restart both devices and the router etc, but disable Bluetooth is so far the only thing that makes the difference. My old mini iPad and iPhone 6 were very good, but I traded them in

    Hello. If you use a 2.4 GHz, instead of the most recent 5 GHz WiFi, Bluetooth uses the same frequency band and may interfere with it. Try to change to 5 GHz, ir your router supports.

  • new iPhone knows my WiFi password

    I replaced an iPhone stolen with a brand new 6 iPhone.  I do not have a backup to restore from, but I had contacts and available icloud applications.  When I used this new device at home, he was able to access my home WiFi network password protected without providing me the password.

    How is that possible?  How a new device came my WiFi password, apparently to iCloud?

    You have settings > iCloud > lit keychain?

    The wifi password is stored in the keychain, and if you synchronize via iCloud Keychain it would be available for the new phone.

  • Why are my contacts on the iPhone of the wife?

    Hi all

    If my wife just noticed that when she's going to send a message (on his iPhone or Mac), my contacts pop-up as auto suggestions fill, even if these contacts are not recorded on their devices anywhere. It is not a major problem, but since I have a LOT of contacts, I don't want to become a nuisance to it.

    I should also mention that I do not have the same problem with his contacts popping up on my devices. Some other background info...

    • We have separated Apple ID
    • We have all two Contacts synced to iCloud
    • We have family sharing - I am the "Organizer".
    • Its devices - iPhone 5s (IOS 9.3), 15 - in the MacBook Pro (OSX El Capitan)
    • My devices - iPhone 6 (IOS 9.3), 15 - retina MacBook Pro (OSX El Capitan)

    I suspect it's something to do with the sharing of our family of iCloud, but the fact that I do not understand his contacts to ask me.

    If anyone has any ideas, I would be very happy. We've only been married for a month, so I try to keep things well oiled

    Thanks in advance!

  • iPhone "password incorrect wifi»

    So I know it's a problem with iOS 9.3.2 but my problem started about a week before, before I upgraded to 9.3.2. My iPhone Plus 6 would randomly forget my wifi network and it would take me a few tries to get in, only to file again a few hours later. Today, she shut me off the grid completely. It keeps telling me that the password is wrong even though I'm ABSOLUTELY sure that it is correct. I thought it was because I had been turned off to update to 9.3.2 (over this issue) so I updated and it still gives me the same problem.

    It connects to other networks wifi fine and all other devices (iPad 2 Air, AppleTV, MacBook, HP, Chromecast, Samsung phone, phone Nokia and 2 Xbox printer) connect without any problems. Nothing to do with the router or internet service has changed, the problem is specific to my iPhone on my home wifi network.

    Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

    Try restarting your router. If you have an airport, you can use app utility from Apple. If this is not the case, try unplugging the unit for 12 seconds. This works for most routers I've owned over the years. See if that helps.
