wifi doesn't work with IOS 7

If you will find manufacturer, who replaces phones for free after warranty, come back and let us know. I promise to be first, to buy their phones, tablets and everything else. Until then...

Or until Timothy wins his case...

Agreed. No manufacturer repalces smartphones for free after the warranty has expired, not as a general rule. In specific situations, maybe.

If you don't like the terms of the warranty, don't buy the product.

This is a wonderful discussion with you guys about smartphones. And warranties. And blame. Transparency? NO. Responsibility? NO. What manufacturer creates it's own IOS and virtually makes it impossible for phone owners/purchasers to avoid upgrades to the phone via the IOS that the company (Apple) created and imposed on the phone owner, knowing that upgrades created problems with three generations of IOS upgrades, without telling customers of the inherent probelms associated with the upgrades because it had NOT made a concerted effort to replace a WiFi chip that can withstand the rigors of APPLE'S Updates. Again, APPLE'S updates.? We are taliking the iPhone 4s (again... see topic). We are talikng, minus our babbling, roughly 64 pages worth of people in this one thread ALONE (do some Googling) that have had worldwide problems upgrading to APPLE'S IOS!!!! It has NOTHING, NOTHING, NOTHING to do with the warranty TJBUSMC1973. I appreciate your research. You have shown APPLE negligence through three (3) upgardes at least when my problem was with only one. fromsouth - I also participated in a class action suit about collusion of e-book publishers price setting that took 10 years. I got a check for $ 0.78 last month. But we were RIGHT. Apple would rather pay attorneys than face up to customers apparently. Must be cheaper to lose face than admit wrong doing. So keep drinking the Kool Aid. I liked the Apple poduct. I used it daily until it failed. I now have major reservations unless APPLE develops a bit of backbone and integrirty.

Take your warranty babble and stuff it where the sun don't shine.

Aw, you're so sweet!

So, you got a $0.78 check from your last class action lawsuit.

Please, keep us up to date on the progess of your current class action lawsuit.

Read what I wrote. I, personally, think that Apple should do more. But, I agreed to the terms of the warranty when I purchased it. And so did you!

You're wanting to change the deal after it's been agreed upon. l think the last guy I heard of wanting to do that was kind of a jerk. Lord of the Sith and all that.

Lando Calrissian: You said they'd be left at the city under my supervision.

Darth Vader: I am altering the deal. Pray I don't alter it any further.

See? Only villians try to alter the deal after it's been agreed upon. Shame on you

I actually was under impression, that Apple settled that one to avoid court costs. Never admitting the guilt. But congrats on 78 cents. So where do we go from Apple? Who is going to replace our stuff after warranty?

You are the one responsible for replacing your out of warranty device.

You can always try using the script that I provided to try to convince Apple to grant you an out-of-warranty exception, and I wish you the best of luck on that.

Hey, if you find a company that replaces smartphones for free even after the warranty expires, let me know too!

Timothy, please keep me in mind when you find this mythical manufacturer. I'll bring the leprechaun's pot of gold so we can all buy them together, and then we'll ride away on our trusty unicorns.

It was not a class action lawsuit against Apple. It was price-fixing against some e-book publishers,as I stated. Nowhere here is anyone discussing warranty except you and TJBUSMC1973. That is because the problem stems from an IOS that, as TJBUSMC1973 so aptly verifies, has consistently and constantly damaged a consumer's product. Apple is obviously aware and made no effort to fix this manufacturing flaw while continuing to sell a flawed product. Apple also continuosly urged people to upgrade to new IOS develped by APPLE! You guys are constantly and consistently missing the point. No one is asking for a warranty replacement. People here want Apple to own up and admit it has sold a flawed product and do whatever necessary to give relief to its customers so that the phones work as advertised. The posts here echo the frustration of the Apple customers who have invested a bunch of money for a useless product rendered useless by the Apple IOS install. And your response is always "it is covered under the warranty". OK, go work at the Genuis Bar becaise that is also the response there. But unless you actually have a solution to the topic "wifi doesn't work with IOS 7" I think your warranty drivel has run it's course and you can go input some other forum.

I also wish he would stop banging on about the warranty. My phone was covered for two years under EU law, except when the store sent it off to be repaired, the apple repair center claimed that it was ineligible as the phone had been opened by someone! I bought it brand new and never opened it myself (in which case it must have been them). Blatant lies to avoid repairing or replacing the device! It's also hard to prove the phone wasn't opened when they have just opened it. So the warranty hardly counts for much!

Last Thursday my wifi connection started to get issues for the third time. Luckally I have a two year warranty. I bougt my white iPhone 4s 32 GB in October '12, and in December '13, I encounered my first wifi issue with the greyed out wifi, and no bluetooth, after upgrading iOS. A part was replaced (I don't know which one) and it was sent back to me. It worked fine until march '14. After upgrading the iOS, a few days later the same issues started again. But this time only wifi was affected. I still had bluetooth.

Again my iPhone was repaird by replacing a part (I still don't know what part). And it worked fine until last Thursday.

As with the second issues, my wifi connection was irragular, and my iPhone frooze trying to go throught the menu in order to switch off and on the wifi connection. For about 20 to 30 seconds I only had a blank screen, and then the wifi menu appeared. This time however, I didn't upgrade to iOS 7.1.1 yet.

I'm sending back to the shop where I bought my iPhone. I hope they will replace it this time.

I am really sorry, I didn't realize that warranty is not discussed here, can you please give me a list of topics that can be discussed?

Same here on my 4s. First I updated to 7.1.1 via wifi, and thewifi started to fail occasionally: small phone freezes, and the screen when black.

Then I restored the firmware via iTunes, 7.1.1, and afterthis, thewifi worked for about an hour. Now whenever I turn the wifi on, everything freezes,and a reset with both buttons is inevitable.

Heeeeeeelp!

Ah, you mean the fact that speculation on Apple policies are not an allowed topic of discussion for this forum? Yeah, I'm thinking the same thing.

THis forum is for discussing technical resolutions, and staying within Apple policies. If someone wants to rant about what Apple should do, this isn't the forum for that.

Technical solutions.

That's what this forum is for.

Debating on whether or not Apple should change their policies is not what this forum is for.

If you want a technical solution, read what's already been written, or post a technical question.

Otherwise, find a different forum.

I'm using 5S, it connected to WI-FI but when I using some of app (even app store) it writes "not connected to internet connection". I check the wi-fi using speedtest and it worked well. so, what happen?
