iPhone 3G: Why no service, no wifi, no bluetooth, no GPS

Mon, 07 Feb 2011 05:03:55 -0700

Hello experts!

I got a major problem with my iPhone 3G and surfed the web since 2 two weeks for a solution.

My problem:

I got no service, no wifi, no bluetooth, no GPS. Everything else is working fine. The phone is not JB or unlocked.

Wifi is searching but shows no network. Bluetooth is searching find no devices like my notebook. Service is searching but stops or cant connect.

But i still got a wifi adress, bluetooth adress and the phone is searching for network.

I tried almost all solutions on the net like downgrading, reset network setting, restore, wifi fixes (apps), freezer and so on.

What is the issue? Software or is it a hardware problem? If it's a hardware problem, what i have to fix?

Thanks for any response!!

HTC Desire: How can I update my towers?

Mon, 18 Jul 2011 15:29:53 -0700

I had problems with my previous htc desire so I had to get a new one. With the new one, though, I am unable to get service in places that I was able to before. For instance, when I had my first desire I had perfect service at my house and now I am lucky to have one bar in my own home.

MacBook Pro 15 Unibody 3.06 GHz Mid 2009: MacBook Pro Service Battery Indicator

Sun, 02 Jun 2013 02:33:08 -0700

Under my battery indicator im getting the message that's saying "Service Battery", if i push i'm getting this message " Service Battery: The battery isn’t functioning normally, and you may or may not notice a change in its behavior or the amount of charge it holds. Take your computer in for service. You can continue to use your battery before it’s checked without harming your computer." Do no answer to have to do anything about other than take i to repair, which takes a whole week, and i can't do without my Macbook Pro especially during this time of the year.

Samsung Galaxy S III: No service after lcd digitizer replacement!? (Tmobile)

Wed, 24 Apr 2013 15:48:38 -0700

Have fixed over 20 GS3s in my day, and this of course is my own personal one. After the screen was replaced, I only get service in WIFI areas. One/Zero bars everywhere else. Replaced sim card and even antennae. Still happening. I noticed a bit of water damage and scrubbed it. STILL didn't help. Any advice please? Maybe software? Or a chip may have broken off? Thanks in advance.
