iPhone 2G Help– home button, charging, and ringer!?

My iPhone 2G was recently given to me by my Mom. Everything worked perfectly until about a week ago. The ringer stopped working, so I plugged/unplugged my phone several times and stopped the music and it worked. About an hour later, it stopped working. It hasn't worked since. Yesterday, I tried plugging my phone in for a charge. It wouldn't charge on any wall charger (we have 2) or mac (we have 3) or PC (we have 4.) I turned my phone off and plugged it in and it turned on becuase it recognized the charger. It wouldn't show the charger screen, but it was charging slowly. I then plugged it into my iMac G5 and it charged perfectly! I turned it off and today it worked great. About 30 minutes ago my home button wouldn't work and now it won't charge! HELP PLEASEEEE!! Another thing, today when I tried plugging it into my computer it said that the USB device was drawing to much power and would now be disconnected. Read or Add Answers...

How to Sync iPhone with PalmPilot?

I have been using PalmPilot for a number of years, primarily list of contacts (over 5,000 entries) and calendar (for all appointments and tasks), and I like it a lot. Recently I got an iPhone and would like to be able to exchange and sync data between iPhone and PalmPilot. I trust PalmPilot as the safest depository of data/contacts/calendar (compared with mobile phones that tend to have lots of bugs in the software). Also, I tend to change cell phones often enough, but I always keep my PalmPilot, so it is easier for me to treat it as the main source of data, as otherwise I would need to migrate my data every year or so to a new mobile device with a different operating system, which is a pain. Ideally, I would want to establish an ongoing 3-way sync: PalmPilot Handhelp <-> PalmPilot Desktop <-> iPhone handhelp. I already do PalmPilot Handheld <-> PalmPilot desktop sync several times per day. Is there a way to get iPhone to sync with PalmPilot desktop regularly, without messing up the capability to sync PalmPilot handheld with PalmPilot desktop at the same time? I do not use Outlook at all. Thank you very much! Yan Read or Add Answers...

Why does my Iphone3G not connect to wifi?

I know this question has been asked several times, but mines a bit different. My wifi DOES have a password, but instead of asking me for the password, it goes straight to "Unable to join the network". I have restarted the phone, unplugged & plugged the wifi back in, AND restored the phone. No difference. (I might add this phone is a replacement for my old one that Apple sent me. Most likely refurbished... does this have anything to do with my problem?) I've checked my iphone software (firmware) and it is up to date. Read or Add Answers...

How do I jailbreak my iPhone with Blackra1n?

I have a 16 gig iPhone already updated to 3.1.2 and I am running windows xp. I’ve downloaded Blackra1n and I’ve tried to run it several times. At the point where the phone goes into recovery mode and shuts down it powers up to the iTunes screen (the one with the iTunes icon and usb plug), not the GeoHot screen that should be displayed. I’ve had to restore my phone at least a dozen times and I always get the same screen. Could someone PLEASE tell me what I’m doing wrong? I’ve tried every walk-through I can find and none of them work.

My iphone software won’t download on my HP?

So I've been having this problem basically forever.....and no one from apple can help and I have no idea how to get a hold of the people who make my laptop (hewlett packer). I have a feeling it's probably itunes. When I connect it and hit check for update it downloads up until the very end and then says error check your network connection (which I did several times) or try again later. Can someone please help me? Read or Add Answers...

iPhone, or BlackBerry?

In August of 2008, I got the iPHONE 3G and was absolutely ecstatic. Three months later, the screen cracked when I dropped from a height of (no joke here), six inches. It just fell out of my jacket pocket when I was bending down to get something. Obviously, I wasn't happy. The people at apple told me it would be $200 to get the screen fixed, unless I sent it to a third party source, which I do NOT plan on doing. These aren't the only problems I've been experiencing. I've had to restore my phone SEVERAL times, each time losing ALL of my contacts and data. It won't back up on my computer, either. Basically, I don't want to spend another $200 to get, essentially, a brand new iphone, and then have it break again, or, have apple come out with new iphone, and then have to turn around and spend money on that. I'm looking at Blackberries, and my question is, do you have one, and if so, do you like it? what does it do? can you put apps on it ( like the iphone )? does it have internet, etc.?
