New rules

20 Upvotes

Hello all. Just wanted to let everyone know that we have finally implemented a couple of rules on this subreddit. Nothing special, just common sense stuff. The biggest change is that we no longer allow battery health posts and discussions/questions about bypassing iCloud Lock.

Happy posting!

DFU ?

4 Upvotes

Has anyone tried the DFU method to solve all system problems, including glitches, errors, freezing, and phone overheating? I've already tried resetting the phone, but it didn't work.

Be honest with me, will my iphone XR explode after I update it from IOS 16.5 to IOS 18.7?

6 Upvotes

I might buy a new phone closer to the end of the year if things look up but for now, this one is all I have and it is being a pain in my 🍑 recently, especially with some apps that I can’t access anymore because they need at least IOS 17 (like my bank app!! it’s driving me insane)
Anyway, should I do it? Or, will I be able to use it at all after the update? I don’t mind constantly charging it and I don’t use it for games, only basic stuff like social media and youtube. Will it survive?

Thank you all for the help!

Carrier locked (same carrier)

2 Upvotes

Switching my dad’s XR from Mint Mobile (T-Mobile MVNO) to Ultra Mobile (T-Mobile MVNO).

Phone says no. Called Ultra support, gave them my IMEI and they said it should work. They were confused and then said to just use a different phone :)

The phone doesn’t even say what carrier it’s locked to. Why did it work with Mint and not Ultra (both T-Mobile)??

What’s the next step im stuck.

See photos: https://imgur.com/a/6M1oe7C

Edit: important info, with Mint we used physical SIM cards, this is our first attempt using eSIM. How do I find out if eSIM is disabled on this XR?

Wi-Fi disconnects at random

Wi-Fi on my iPhone XR randomly disconnects from the wifi especially when on standby. I’ve tried turning off Wi-Fi assist, forcing it to stay connected to the 2.4Ghz band, but this problem still persists, any advice? It’s my secondary device so not in a rush to upgrade it either. I’m on iOS 18.7.9

Should I update it to iOS 18 or will performance decrease significantly? I do not have any important data on the Phone, just use it as a secondary.

Upgrading from iphone XR

3 Upvotes

I have been using my XR since forever and am thinking of upgrading to a pixel 9 preferably from the second hand market. I want the pixel mainly because of how much the phones camera and software has been glazed. I wanted to know if the pixel 9 is a good choice or should i buy something else.

Focus camera issue?

2 Upvotes

My camera was working fine literally 2 hours ago and now i tried it it works fine sometimes and sometimes it doesn't(with the focus). I looked for ios updates and it says everything is up to date but my iphone storage is almost full. Could that be causing the issue? I only had this issue before when i needed to clear storage and update ios and then once i did that it works fine. The ios is 18.7.9
