hi Reggie, I believe you said you didn't really sync music with your phone in which case I think a 32 Gb model will be just fine for you. If you can upgrade a month from now I'd go to the store and explain the problem and see if your carrier might not let you upgrade a few weeks earlier.

No it did not stop my life, but ffrustrating. As for my iPad, which I said I had a problem with last night, not trying the obvious things was my problem. Too embarrassed to admit, but iPad is running well and so is phone minus wifi, of course. Going to upgrade in a month so though I could probably get a new 4s, I will use iPad un''til I can get the 5s, and I am going for at least a 32 Gb. Will that be enough do you think? reggie and Allegra On Nov 9, 2013, at 3:38 AM, Sieghard Weitzel <[email protected]> wrote: Hi Anthony, Sorry if I disagree, but cleaning your house or taking care of non-existing children does not solve WiFi issues. I think you really can't generalize this the way you do. Reggie has a real and I mean "real" issue with her iPhone not connecting to her WiFi and if your iPhone did that I am sure you would not decide to clean your house in the hope it would fix the WiFi. I am saying this because I talked to Reggie on the phone because the issue intriqued me and I was hoping I could help her resolve it. I heard Voiceover talking on her iPhone while we were talking on Facetime Audio on her iPad which, by the way, connected happily to her WiFi. I started out by getting her to remove all apps from her app switcher and then to reboot the phone. This did not help. The interesting thing is that if Reggie pulled up the control centre (she is using a 4S with iOS 7.03, she can double tap WiFi and Bluetooth and it says for both item that they are On. However, if she then goes into Settings, Bluetooth, it says Bluetooth is off. If she goes to Settings, WiFi, it says WiFi is Off and on top of that it says that the On/Off button is dimmed. Next I asked Reggie to go to General, Reset and to double tap on Reset Network Settings. She did that and, by the way, Reggie seems to be a rather competent iPhone user, and after the phone rebooted the problem was still there. This left a factory reboot. I asked Reggie to hook the iPhone up to her computer. We did an encrypted backup and then started the restore process. Once it was going I had to leave her with it since I had to get back to work, but Reggie ended up finishing a factory restore and set up her phone as a new device. I told her to try that first since she can restore from her backup any time and I wanted to avoid a problem coming back because of a corrupt backup. Reggie later texted me that she completed the factory restore and the issue was still there, she is not only unable to as much as turn on her WiFi let along connect to a network, but even Bluetooth will not turn on. In my book this is clearly a Hardwear issue and I believe that Reggie is fortunately still covered by Apple Care and in any case plans to upgrade to a 5S soon. However, it also is an example where a user has donew everything possible to solve the issue and where the issue seems to be clearly a Hardwear defect. I haven't heard yet from Reggie as she was trying to line up a ride to an Apple Store to see if they would replace her phone, but hopefully that was the case. I consider myself to be somebody who knows what he is talking about most of the time, and if this was my iPhone 4S I would certainly be on the horn with Apple trying to get a replacement and I doubt washing her floors would have fixed the problem *smile* Regards, Sieghard -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Anthony Vece Sent: Tuesday, November 05, 2013 11:49 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: no wifi on iPhone but other devices are fine I just never heard of so many people having so many problems. I can't help but wonder how so many people are responsible for causing there own problems. If something is working, don't fix it. Put the phone down and, do other things, I mean I know our phones do a lot of tasks but, go clean your house or, take care of your children.
