    Will iPhone 12 only fast charge with usb-c?

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 03:39 PM PST

    Using a OnePlus 30w wall charger and usb to lightning cable, and my iPhone 12 takes a loooong time to fully charge. I know it won't go full 30w on a non-OnePlus phone but it fast charged a Xiaomi phone even if it was a little slower than my OnePlus.

    Do I have to use the usb-c to lightning cable if I want fast charging?

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 08:24 PM PST

    I've tried everything, took out sim, factory reset etc but it still occurs.

    Is there anything I can do. In analytics it says Panic Full.

    I have had the screen replaced as it was very badly damaged.

    Thanks

    Safari no longer in Share menu

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 07:54 PM PST

    I wanted to share an article from the News app to a friend yesterday. My friend has an Android phone and so doesn't have the Apple News app. When I went to share it, all it would let me do was send the Apple News url. He can't open this without an iPhone but before, I could always choose Open in Safari from the Share menu and then send it that way. The option seems to have disappeared on my phone.

    I've tried this in other apps like Pinterest too, but it doesn't show Safari as an option. Was this taken out of the latest update or am I missing something?

    Issues with “text forwarding” on iPhone 8

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 07:18 PM PST

    Recently I upgraded from an iPhone 8 to an iPhone 12, and I still use my iPhone 8 a lot for certain things, and I'm having an issue with text forwarding.

    Oh my iPhone 8, the device will download any SMS (green) text messages that are both sent and received on my iPhone 12, and it has no issue receiving the texts real time, however the issue is that it won't SEND any SMS texts using "text forwarding." Anytime I try to send an SMS text, it always says "message send failure" immediately.

    My new iPhone is carrier unlocked, and I bought it from the Apple store with the AT&T "activate immediately" option, which gave me a new sim card and immediately de-activated my old iPhone 8. Both devices are on AT&T and under the same phone number, however my iPhone 8 is still carrier locked. I am thinking my iPhone 8 only tries to send the SMS messages through the carrier, instead of forwarding them to my iPhone 12. Does anyone know how to fix this issue? Or has anyone experienced a similar issue?

    My iPhone 12 does show my iPhone 8 under "text message forwarding" as a device that I can activate that for, and I have turned it on. The text message forwarding also works without a problem on my Mac and iPad.

    Soon I am going to go through the process of unlocking my iPhone 8 (for reasons unrelated to this issue) but I hope that'll help. Maybe then the carrier settings will reset and the phone will stop trying to send the SMS messages through AT&T and will actually send them to my iPhone 12.

    This isn't a big issue, but it would be cool if I could get this fixed. Also, this issue does not affect iMessage in anyway

    I’m not sure if this is an iPhone problem or Subaru problem.

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 06:53 PM PST

    So I just upgraded to the 12 Pro Max from the iPhone 8 Plus. Previously, my phone worked fine with Bluetooth in my Subaru Forester. There was a delay which really annoyed me but it was fine. Now, when I pair my new phones Bluetooth to my forester, it says it's playing but it's actually just playing through my phones speakers. Iv unpaired and paired multiple times and it still hasn't worked. Is this an iPhone problem or a Subaru problem?

    cant back up or transfer iphone 8 data- please help!!!

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 03:02 PM PST

    hi everyone!

    i recently purchased a 128GB iphone SE. it arrived over a week ago but i have been unable to use it. here's why:

    my current phone is a 64GB iphone 8. it works fine and ive never had any MAJOR issues with it. however, now i can't seem to transfer or back up any of the device's data. when my SE arrived, i tried the quick start wireless data transfer and it didn't work. i tried a few times, went through the whole set up process, and got hit with the "data transfer could not be completed because an error occurred." so i tried to back the phone up to my macbook, which has never given me problems before. once again "an error occurred" it's important to note that at this time, both phones were updated to iOS 14.3 and my macbook was on MoJave. i called apple and spoke with both regular and senior-level advisors. neither of them were any help as all they could suggest was updating my mac to big sur, which i ended up doing and it did not help.

    after doing more digging, i've noticed that my last backup was done on nov 5 2020, just before i updated from iOS 14 to 14.2. i also noticed that the backup was encrypted and required a password. this was really confusing to find as i did not set a password for the backup.

    i spoke with apple again today and had an advisor take a look via screen share and once again, the advisor was at a loss. i purchased more icloud storage to back up my phone to icloud and there was an error with that too. i think the issue is with the iphone 8 itself and the iOS14.2 update as i never had problems like this until after the update. i was also able to update both phones on my macbook even though i can't complete any backups.

    i've tried restarting the phones, signing in and out of apple ID, using safe mode and RAM reset on my mac, and much more. i'm really not sure what to do now. i have an in-person genius bar appointment scheduled for monday but i'd rather solve the problem on my own before then because i don't really feel comfortable going to a mall right now. i've searched online and read about using third-party apps such as AnyTrans which i am considering, but am still hesitant about.

    has anybody had this problem before? do you know how to fix it? have you used AnyTrans?

    **it may also be important to note that from 2016, up until september 2020 when i updated to iOS14, i was unable to use airdrop as it was turned off behind a restrictions password that i did not set/have any knowledge about, and i was unable to use the clock app on my phone. these problems followed me on my apple ID to every iphone i had with no solution in sight until i updated my phone in september.

    How to stop number spoofing

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 11:08 AM PST

    I have IOS and for about a year someone has been using my number to send out harassing text messages to random numbers all over the country. It happens about every 3-4 months and I will receive text messages saying "stop" and whatnot from 5-12 random numbers but I have no idea what the person spoofing me is saying to them. Is this an iPhone/iOS hacking issue? Does anyone know how to stop this?

    iPhone won't 'untrust' Windows 10 device (

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 02:44 PM PST

    So, I hit 'trust' accidentally when connected to a Windows 10 device. Now, despite following the steps on the Apple support page (https://support.apple.com/en-au/HT202778), including resetting my phone, when I connect my phone to the device via USB, the phone now appears in my list of connected devices and there's no new 'do you want to trust this device?' message on my iPhone. iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 14.3. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

    WiFi/GPS/Bluetooth Signal Weakness on iPhone X

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 05:42 PM PST

    Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction with an issue regarding the weak signal I'm getting for WIFI GPS and Bluetooth for my iPhone X

    I've done all the necessary soft steps like; restarting the phone, hard reset, reset all settings, reset network settings, latest update, you name it.

    The back of phone has some cracks, nothing major and nothing that would lead me to believe the inside (back) has been penetrated. I recently had the phone screen replaced by a third-party repairman (probably a mistake) and ever since that repair I've had issues with the WiFi GPS and Bluetooth. I've tried returning it to him saying this issue derived from his screen replacement, but he only provided me the option to pay some ridiculous fee to have it fixed.

    What can I do to have this issue resolved? Please let me know! Thank you.

    I got random frequently used emojis in an alarming configuration. Should I be scared?

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 05:17 PM PST

    I don't know how to share a photo to this reddit, it would really be helpful if i could. But basically I got a bunch of alarming frequently used emojis that i have never used. I got a bunch of random flags, devil, pumpkin, sparkle yen, a punching arm punching a wink face, skeleton, mask face, that graph with the spike going down, mask face, that purple pixely gamer looking emoji. It all kind of looked like a terrorist threat, or maybe some alt right thing? I'm not sure but i am truly alarmed and there is nothing online that I can find about this. I can guarantee I have not used any of these emojis. Am I hacked? Should I be afraid? Is there any advice on this? To be clear the problem is not that I don't want to see them, I know how to change frequently used. The problem is that all these random emojis I have never used with a certain configuration that seem to send an alarming message showed up in my frequently used. Does this let you type emojis? If so I can show, but I think I did a good job illustrating what was on my phone. Words cannot describe how grateful I would be for some insight or help! iphone model 8+ IOS 14.2

    Music player app that will remember where I’m up to in each playlist?

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 04:45 PM PST

    Does anyone know if there's a music player app (for playing downloaded songs, not streaming) which will allow me to switch between playing different playlists, but will remember where I was up to in each playlist when I return to it?

    Basically what I want to do is have one large playlist of songs that I listen to in the car on the way to work each day, and other smaller playlists that I listen to at home, but I want the car playlist to pick up where I left off each day, regardless of what I played at home in the meantime. Any ideas how I can achieve this?

    Clean install of iPhone without loss of text messages, iMessages

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 04:25 PM PST

    I'm about to do a clean install on my iPhone. But...

    • iMessages and FaceTime were disabled today on all my Apple devices for an unrelated reason ("Waiting for activation"). Per the advise of an Apple Support person, he suggested leaving these services turned off for 24 hours before turning them back on.
      Do I really need to wait 24 hours? Or can I turn them back on (after restart) and just twiddle my fingers until activation is complete?
    • Simultaneously, I turned on Messages in iCloud so that my messages could get uploaded to iCloud before I perform the clean install (also per the advise of the Apple Support person). But I've noticed that it's making zero progress (18 MB out of 17 GB).
      Does Messages in the Cloud not start upload unless I have iMessages turned on?

    Thanks in advance!

    Iphone X various problems

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 01:31 PM PST

    Hi all,

    I'm hoping someone can help. I've noticed just recently my iPhone X has started acting up..

    1. Battery bar doesn't show that its draining and will stay at a percentage until I physically restart my phone.

    2. The unlocking by the side button, there appears to be a very long delay to when the screen will then appear.

    3. Iphone restarts itself randomly and I find myself spamming the power button to get my phone to start.

    Iphone X running IOS 14.2 (software version)

    Have tried a factory reset but the issue still occurs. Sometimes the phone is fine and I'll have hours of no issues and then other times I'll be plagued with the problems above.

    Really appreciate any help

    iPhone 6S shorting after screen and charging port replacement

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 12:42 PM PST

    Have replaced iPhone 6S screen, which is all working incuding touch, camera etc

    Have replaced lighting connector flex (so mic's etc) also working.

    Done quite a few of these but first time I've had this problem and I'm unsure why

    When receiving a call it will shut off straight away as If it was shorting.

    I can make outgoing call

    ∆ I have 4G connectivity ∆ Battery health and charge is good ∆ Have removed screen and placed back again to make sure flex cables were sat correctly ∆ Have done a reset on the phone

    I'm not allowed to post video yet on this forum to show what's happening

    If anybody could give any advice that would be great

    I have an Iphone SE, and there’s a tiny line on the screen

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 07:26 AM PST

    I just noticed this a little bit ago, there is a teeny line that is on the bottom-right corner of the screen. Its sorta like a smudge mixed with a tiny blade of grass. I tried wiping it and nothing changed. Does anyone know what this could be, or how I could fix it? If you have questions feel free to ask.
