Touch ID and passcode issues on iPhone 5S?
I bought a new iPhone 5s three weeks ago. It was brand new in the box, with the original clear wrapper still intact. I bought it from a friend who's parents both bought her one (her parents don't speak, but she thought they would come to an arrangement about who was buying it. Clearly not).
Anyway, everything was working fine until I tried to set up a new finger print in settings. It let me, but then the phone froze and went back to the home screen, as if it wasn't responding. Since then, every time I try to go into the touch id and passlock settings, the phone freezes and the only thing that works are the slide up and down screens. I have to continuously press random things on the slide up and then go back and press cancel as fast as i can, only then will it will go into the touch ID settings. It's fairly annoying, and the phone constantly stops responding, logs out of game centre, and lags until i power it off and back on again.
I'm currently running IOS 7.1.2.
Has anyone else got any problems like this or have i got a faulty phone?
Sounds frustrating. I would definitely recommend do a back up and restore through iTunes, that usually stomps out any annoying bugs
- Is there anyway I can bypass my passcode on my iPhone 4 or it's a 5 I'm not sure but I can't remember the passcode but I need it I know you can restore but I don't want to do that because I don't think I have the computer I backed it up to back then. And i don't know what update this is. Like I haven't see the emergency button there at all in any videos
- Iphone asking me for a passcode to install update. I never set up a passcode. Options? I just tried to update my iphone to 7.1.1 and i'm being asked for a passcode. I never set one up, but entered what I would have made it, and now have a message saying "FAILED. One more attempt". What happens if I get this final attempt wrong? How do I continue with update if I can't remember this passcode?
- Iphone 5s touch screen issues? Only one part of the screen isn't working, or being responsive, it is the area where it says "load earlier messages" I've reset the settings and tried messing with it, but it's still not responsive. Any suggestions?
- IPhone 5 vs iPod Touch 5 (latest iPod touch)? Which is more worth it? I had the iPod touch 4 and I really loved it! But I sold it a few months ago to save up for an iPhone but now that the iPhone 5 is here and there's a new iPod touch, I'm confused. Which one should I get? For the android fans out there, don't recommend me to buy android, I'm sick of it.
