My Wifi button missing!?
My iPhone has decided that wifi no longer exists. Not only is the wifi button in my settings greyed out and unusable, but the quick option tab (the one that you swipe up from the bottom to get and it has the do not disturb, airplane mode and all that in it)... The wifi button on that has been replaced by just a dark grey circle. No symbol or anything, like it doesn't exist.
It worked fine this morning. I just left it in my room for a couple hours and came back and it was like this. I don't know what happened.
I've tried the network reset... I'm wondering if it has to do with the overheat thing people are talking about? I noticed it was pretty hot yesterday... Should I try putting it in the refrigerator?
Feedback would be helpful, I'm in college and I kinda need this thing for carpooling tomorrow!!
Is this a good question?
No do not put your phone in the refrigerator. The only way to actually fix this is get the Wi-Fi ic chip on the logic board professionally replaced. But even so that is not worth it because clients have found out that the repair costs outweigh the worth of the phone buying another one used.
Anything else is a temporary fix and it will just come back in a week and it will eventually get worse every time you try to temporarily fix it until it dies completely (the phone might even die depending on what methods you try to use).
Pretty common issue with the iPhone 4s.
