9 Common iPhone Problems And How To FIX Them

When your storage is full

Find an alternative photo storage solution and delete old i Cloud backups!

First, try:
Constantly running out of space?? You can check Settings > General > Storage > Manage Storage to see what’s the biggest culprit.

It’s most likely photos and video. Google Photos is a free app and website that will store unlimited photos (16MP or less, so perfect for phone pics) and in the app’s settings you can hit “Free Up Space” to remove original photos and vids from your device that are already backed up.

If that doesn’t work, then:
It may be your iCloud account that’s full. storing backups from old devices. Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage > Manage Storage. Then tap the outdated backup, then Delete Backup!

Battery low 

First, try:
If you’re running low RIGHT NOW, go to Settings > General > Battery and enable Low Power Mode. Next, go to Settings > Cellular and turn *off* Wi-Fi Assist.

If you’re really desperate, go to Settings > Accessibility > and turn Grayscale to ON. Finally, turn your phone face down so that it doesn’t light up when you receive notifications.

If that doesn’t work, then:
There are plenty of reasons why your battery might be dying quickly. Your email settings might be “fetching” (or looking for new messages) too frequently. Your screen might be too bright. You might have too many push notifications turned on. Head to Settings > Battery to see which apps are sucking up the most power.

When the screen is frozen 

First, try:
Hold down the power (sleep/wake) button to see if your phone will power off.

If that doesn’t work, then:
Force-reset the device. Hold the home button and the power button at the same time for 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo. Rebooting your iPhone this way simply cuts the power, but beware that it may cause corruption, so only use it as a last resort.

When you dropped it in water 

First, try:
Hold down the power (sleep/wake) button to see if your phone will power off.

If that doesn’t work, then:
Force-reset the device. Hold the home button and the power button at the same time for 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo. Rebooting your iPhone this way simply cuts the power, but beware that it may cause corruption, so only use it as a last resort

When your home button is broken 

iPhone buttons typically stop working because of water damage, dirt, or drops, but luckily there’s an easy fix!

You’ll need to turn on an accessibility feature called AssistiveTouch. First, open Settings > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch and switch it to “on.” Now you’ll see a little black square. That’s your new virtual home button!

When your screen cracked 

Don’t DIY unless you know what you’re doing!

Before you do ANYTHING, backup your phone’s data using iCloud or iTunes. I like backing up my phone using iTunes on my computer because I have limited iCloud storage.

First, try:
iCracked provides an on-demand general mobile device repair service that includes cracked screens, and it’s available worldwide. They’ll come to you and fix your iPhone in 30 minutes for about $180 for a 6s.

You can also bring in your iPhone to an Apple Store for repair, which costs between $130 and $150 depending on the model — but it won’t be ready for a few days and you have to make an appointment.

When you forgot your passcode 

Unfortunately, there’s not much you can do, aside from wiping your phone. Even the FBI had trouble getting past a locked iPhone, so tough luck breaking through the Great Wall of Forgotten Passcodes. After 6 attempts, your iPhone will be disabled and you’ll be locked out for a period of time.

If you really can’t remember your passcode, you’ll have to erase all of its contents and start over. There are two ways to reset: If you have Find My iPhone enabled, use iCloud. You can also connect it to a computer and, while it’s connected, press and hold the power and home button until you see the recovery screen pictured here. Finally, select Restore.

When you lost your Phone 

If you don’t have Find My iPhone enabled, report the device to your carrier: AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, and Sprint. If you believe it was stolen, suspend service and blacklist your device to protect it from unauthorized use.

If you *do* have Find My iPhone, go to iCloud.com, click All Devices, and tap the missing device. Lost Mode protects the device with a passcode if there is none and lets you enter a phone number if it’s found. Erase iPhone will completely wipe the device remotely, but use this as a last resort, because you’ll lose access to Find My iPhone.

Once you’ve located the device, do NOT try to retrieve the phone yourself if it was stolen. Contact the police.

When your Wi-Fi is not working 

First, stand next to your router to eliminate any connection issues. Then, tap on the Wi-Fi network and select Forget This Network. Return to Settings > Wi-Fi, select the network again, and re-enter the password.

Still not working? Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Beware: This deletes all of your stored passwords and networks. If you see full Wi-Fi signal but can’t connect to the internet, reset your router and restart your phone.

FIX Android smartphone battery drain issues and extend battery life

Our smartphones are getting more and more capable by the day. We use them for listen to music, watch videos and movies, browse social media, surf the web, play games, read and reply to personal and work emails, and now, with VR (Virtual Reality) becoming a larger focus, you can even enjoy a completely different world and experience while sitting in the comfort of your own home. Of course, on the rare occasion that it is required, you can even make a phone call.

One aspect of the smartphone that unfortunately hasn’t kept up is battery, and the only real solution is to either get a device with a huge battery, or take advantage of phones with fast charging capabilities, so at least you aren’t wasting a lot of time charging it. There are a few things you can do to get the most out of your phone however. Admittedly, these tips and tricks aren’t going to double or triple your battery life, but at the very least, you won’t end up with a switched off device when you need it the most. Let’s take a look!

Being able to have numerous apps for different purposes downloaded on your phone is what makes our  smartphones so good. However, there may be a few that are resulting in rapid battery drain, without you even knowing about it.

You can see which apps are using up your battery by going to the Battery section in the Settings menu. Of course, if you have been using an app often, it will be higher up on the list. That said, if you find that an app is causing an abnormal amount of battery drain, your best bet is to uninstall that particular app. These issues can often be fixed with a software update, so once an update for that app rolls out, you should be able to install it once again.

There are also some apps that access your location, and using GPS in the background can cause significant battery drain. You can see if this is the cause by going to the Location section in the Settings. Here, you will see a list of apps that use location services, and tapping on an app will show how much battery has been drained because of it.

If it is significant, you can stop it by turning of the location option in the App Permissions for the particular one. Along those lines, it may also be a good idea to keep GPS turned off when you aren’t planning to use it. With most smartphones, you find the GPS toggle in the Quick Settings list in the notification dropdown. So, if you are planning to use Google Maps, you can turn GPS back on, and then turn it off again after you’re done.

Finally, another reason some users may see battery drain is because of widgets. As fun and convenient as widgets may be, having a lot of them can result in a lot of battery life being used up. So, if there are any widgets that you don’t use often and can do without, it may be a good idea to remove it.

Every Android smartphone will come with some form of a power saving mode, and enabling them does things like remove animations, turn of background syncing, turn off location services, and reduce display brightness, to help get some extra juice out of your battery. These modes are usually activated automatically when the battery reaches the 15% mark, but if you generally running low and feel like you won’t be able to get to a charger for a while, you can manually enable it in the Settings menu.

When you are running really low, some smartphones, from OEMs  like Samsung, Huawei, and more, offer an Ultra Power Saving mode. This essentially turns your device into a feature phone, and all you can really do is make calls or send text messages. If you are really running low on battery and need to be able to contact someone, this mode will prove to be a life saver.

Most smartphones nowadays come with an Auto Brightness setting, that, as the name suggests, automatically sets the brightness level of the display by detecting the lighting condition. If you are looking to extend your battery life, manually setting the brightness to a lower level makes quite a big difference in this regard. Unless you absolutely have to bump up the display brightness, keeping it low is a good idea.

You can also save a little bit of battery by changing the screen timeout interval, which is the amount of time the display stays on, while the device is idle. Unless you need the display to stay on when the device is idle for a long time, changing this interval to something like 10 seconds will help just a little bit. You can find this under the Display section in the Settings menu.

While most smartphones offer great battery life at the start, you will find its performance fading after a year or two, or even sooner, if the battery isn’t maintained properly. Studies have found that batteries tend to degrade faster when the device heats up, regardless of whether it is in use or idle. Even simple things like not leaving your phone on the car dashboard on a hot, sunny day will help.

When in use, and especially when playing graphic-intensive games, we’ll all found our devices becoming uncomfortably warm. At the time, it’s a good idea to close the app and let the device rest till it cools down, or even turn the phone off, to speed up the process.

Many users are proponents of the 10-90 system, which means that you don’t charge your battery beyond 90%, and never have it drop less than 10%. Some studies have shown that 40-80 is even better, but that isn’t always possible, especially when it comes to the lower end. However, it is recommended that you discharge the battery fully and charge it back to 100%, at least once every three months or so.
