Hello Lawrence / Rudegar, I've tried changing the iCloud setting to OFF and then have done a soft reset; i've now even turned ON the iCloud settings. Nothing seems to be working - my battery drains off badly, the phone is warm (if not hot) and ALL apps (be it Email, FB, LinkedIn, Games, Call, Message) crash - it's extremely become an awful situation, any advice please?!!!
Apps crashing is a totally separate problem from battery drain. If that is happening and your phone is not jailbroken then iOS is corrupted in some way do a Restore again, and set up as a New phone. After it is restored you can try restoring your backup as a separate step. If the problem comes back you will have to restore again, this time as a new and do not restore your backup.
Thanks Lawrence - do you mean I 'Restore iPhone' on my iTunes home?? I've done a Restore earlier when I bought a new iPhone (after losing the older one)...I remember I got back all my apps....If I do the Restore, will I lose all my Apps altogether? I believe I should be able to restore apps through my iTunes on my laptop??
If you Restore as New there will be nothing on your phone initially. But you can reinstall any apps and music you had purchased previously. To summarize:
Is this this 'Restore Phone' that I need to first do?!!
Yes. After it completes you can restore your backup, as I described.
OK Lawrence, fantastic. Restore is now in progress...
Hi Lawrence,
I did the following:
1. Restore iPhone as new Phone
2. Restore Backup from latest correctly working backup
3. All my contacts are now back
4. I do see all my apps also listing on the home screen of my iPhone
5. However, I see that they are in Waiting state for SYNC
Looks like all apps would get reinstalled again?? Does it how it's supposed to be?? I noticed that the Sync isnt completing and it cancels sync....I do see all my stuff on my PC iTunes and its trying to sync. Or at this stage where i see all apps in Waitin state, do I now allow my phone to do the installation by herself!!!?
Have you tried smashing it with a hammer?
I actually did it the other way!!! I dropped it from the top of a 70-storey building !!! LOL

Now click the Sync button.
