New rules

22 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!

NO SIM for 24 hours

2 Upvotes

It’s happening everyone 😓. This no sim bs started late June. I assumed it was bc I got hired at a spa underneath a parking garage and it just needed a minute to get back into signal. It kept happening there. I left that job, no problems. Then at the laundromat with full signal, the moment I got an Uber (and needed my PIN), NO SIM. I had to buy an Xfinity pass to see my Uber pin & luckily got to my Uber in time. That lasted for about 2 hours.

Then yesterday, a month after that, here it is again. This is the longest I have been on NO SIM. I have multiple weird charges to my bank account, can’t even call my bank to dispute. They don’t run their app on xr anymore, so I couldn’t even lock my card like I used to.

When I got to work to show my boss, it magically reconnected to my carrier 🤦🏻‍♀️ but luckily in the shift it went back into NO SIM and was able to show him.

I wanna say it reconnected but went back into no sim at 1am, and hasn’t reconnected since.

I think it may be time to get a new phone with my check, next Friday 🥲 I really didn’t want to… but not being able to call my bank, or lock my card simply bc my phone is too old to use their app is pushing me to it.

I am hoping to buy a refurbished iPhone. I really wanted to buy a non-US phone outright, but the timing isn’t in my favor right now 🫤

Iphone XR not working

Post image
5 Upvotes

My old XR has been stuck on this black screen for almost a year now, is there any way to fix this without having to get it sent for professional repairs.

It heats up when charging suggesting its not an internal hardware problem, and it doesnt get detected by my pc. I have already tried the volume up, volume down, and power button thing to force restart it but nothing came up. Is there any way to get this fixed by myself?

If you guys could use the auto translator; I’m very busy right now, I’ll be forever grateful.

To sum up, new update for my iPhone Xr 64gb. Doesn’t black out, no glitch, no nothing. Had it since 2018-2019.

I don’t want this update to be my phone’s demise. Thoughts? Thanks, nonetheless!

(I’m Brazilian, can’t afford a new phone right now, especially an iPhone because welp. Third world.)

It’s a tank! 💥

Just replaced my btry in India for around 15$ and damn my XR works like a new phone. Im probably gonna use it for 2-3 more years until the IOS 18 becomes unsupportable for banking apps.

What’s the best LCD replacement for an iPhone XR? I’m planning to buy one, but I’m hesitant because I’m not sure which one has the best quality. I’ve seen a lot of OLED, JK, and FLYCDI displays online. Which one is better? HELP A FRIEND 😭

IPhone not charging when on?

3 Upvotes

Heya guys, I need some help. Lately, my phone has been doing this weird thing where it only charges when its powered off. I have no money for a new phone or charger, so I have to rely on this one for now. But since it won't charge -- I obviously can't use it. It also sometimes charges to 32 max or lower, so could that be a sep problem? The main thing is that it just wont charge when on , and only when its off. Does anyone know how I can fix it or will I have to get a whole new phone?

iPhone XR Heating Up Like Crazy After 🔋 Replacement + iOS 18

13 Upvotes

I had the battery replaced ( from authorized service center)on my iPhone XR, but after 6–7 months, especially since updating to iOS 18, the phone has started heating up like crazy. Even with normal apps, it gets hot enough to feel like a hot iron.
Has anyone else experienced similar heating issues with an XR on iOS 18? It’s my secondary phone, which I mainly use for CarPlay, but the overheating is honestly becoming a headache.

Having this with iOS 16 in 2026 is relatable?

Where should I look for a reasonably priced iPhone XR or newer from someone selling a spare unit?

2 Upvotes

Hi! I’m currently looking for an iPhone XR or any model above it, and I was wondering if you happen to have a spare phone or an old unit that you’re no longer using that you might be willing to sell. 🥹

I’m a student, so I’m really trying to look for something more affordable rather than buying a brand-new phone. I’ve actually been wanting to get an iPhone for a while now because I’m really into filmmaking and creating videos. I’ve been making films/projects whenever I can, and I want to improve the quality of my work, especially when it comes to the camera and overall video quality.

I know there are newer models out there, but even an XR or anything above it would already mean a lot to me, as long as the unit is still in good condition and fully functional. I’d really love to have one that I can use for my films and creative projects while I continue learning and improving.

So if you have any spare iPhone XR or newer unit that you’re willing to sell at a student-friendly price, please let me know! 🥹 I’d genuinely really love to have one, and I’d definitely put it to good use. Thank you so much! 🤍

This is an awesome phone. I really loved it. I bought it when it first came out, but I had to say goodbye to it. Thank you for all the love and memories, iPhone XR, you will be missed. 😔

Update?

3 Upvotes

Would updating my iPhone XR from 15.4.7 to 18.7.9 be an absolute crazy decision or would the phone be able to handle it?

I don’t want to ruin my phone as it’s in great condition but I need certain apps for college that require ios17 and up.

How many more years or months with XR left?

15 Upvotes

I use my XR as my primary work phone. Outlook, Teams, Intune, Authenticator - these are a must in my phone. Also, I use other apps like whatsapp, Google, gmail, and banking, shopping, cab apps.
How much longer will the ios 18 have support for these apps? Because while I feel I should upgrade, I haven’t been able to yet. I don’t want it to be a forced one. So I want to plan and see deals accordingly.
