Is anyone having problems downloading apps? Whenever I go to download a app it will just say "waiting" and never downloads & will say that there isn't enough room to download this app. And I know there is PLENTY of space on my phone. I too was having a problem with my wifi, except there would be no wifi signal icon at the top of the screen but I was still able to use safari and all apps that required a connection. (I'm using a iPhone 4 that I recently had the service cancelled & awaiting a new iPhone from a different carrier so wifi is the only way the phone is useable) its like it made it look as though I wasn't connected to wifi but I really was ...???? What's also annoying is since I updated to 6.1.3 everything keeps crashing! Even apps that I just updated & even safari.

I just had the same problem everyone is reporting, ie wifi button greyed out. Mine is an iPhone 4S IOS 6.1.3...

I have tried everything; TS1559, hard reset, soft reset, freezing the thingy and what not, to no avail. I join this forum seeking out a solution and horror... This thing has been going on for sometimes now with no patch given out by the mothership. Have we been abandoned?


I used to laugh at my wife whenever she had problems with her Samsung/Android. Now shes grinning at me.

It cost to me 60USD no it wasn't covered by warranty as we don't have in our country official APPLe store and it was sent to me from US as an gift so I prefered to pay and replaced here rather then send back to US :-) today is 2nd day from replacment and it's working very well. in repair center they told me that this is very specific problem for Ipohone 4S's only and there are lot of devices daily visiting them with same problem either greyed out either like my device connecting but droping the connection. anyway it's fixed and working good now !!!

This is really dissapointing and honestly testing my faith in Apple. Within hours of updating to 6.1.3 my 4 started to randomly self restart and I was unable to connect to wifi and my apps were failing. I had to wipe back to factory mode and then restore. That worked for 1/2 a day and then my phone completely crashed, couldn't turn it on, was unable to charge it, nothing. I tried to restore it and it would not recognize my phone. Magically, it came back on today but after being dropped by Apple support twice with no call back (why ask for my number should we be disconnected if you are not going to call me back?) I am considering a switch to Samsung. I think it's pretty lousy that they release an update that screws up many user devices and they have not addressed the issue or offered a solution. Sure my phone is working at this moment but how do I know it will last throughout the day? It's sad that my throwback ipod from '05 is still in great working condition (no updates there) and my 4 which I've had for less than 2 years is barely hanging on to life.

Apple should be ashamed to keep launching updates before testing them!

My iphone 5 is now worhtless it drains in 4 hours after the stupid update.

I am getting rid of it, I should have gone with the samsung galaxy... now I will!

They will start noticing a trend of decling customer loyalty soon..

Junk belongs on craigslist.
