Strange iPhone problems
Hello Everyone!
At the start i would like to point out that I'm a noob so please be gentle with me - thnx :-)
Just bought a second-hand iPhone for a very good price and I have some problems. When i bought the iPhone the screen was showing - Please connect to iTunes - the seller said he doesn't know WTF is going on with the phone. Bought it, came home, unlocked it with iBrick and phone is working at the moment. The next step for me was to take the simlock off. The the problems started here. As the manual for unlocking the phone with iBrick states that after installing Installer i should have a working Wi-Fi connection this is my first big problem. The Wi-Fi is gray, I tried to update the software via console to 314.fls but it doesn't work. Also found a manual to kill a process, update it and than run the process again - I cannot kill it - the phone says that there is no process :/
So i don't have WiFi. If I install Anysim right after unlocking the phone it does not work - crashes a second after it's started.
And the third matter that is really bugging me is the external speaker - it doesn't work. As i don't have any gsm connection i do not know if the speaker will work with gsm connections but i cannot listen to ringtones, the phone doesn't make ANY SOUNDS. What can I do ? I tried putting the headphones in and out in and out really fast - doesn't work. I tested the iPod functions - works OK - music plays perfectly. The strange thing is that I cannot hear the ringtones also on the headphones - i cannot hear anything exept the iPod on the headphones - is this normal?
So if anyone could help me with the following :
- unlocking the simlock
- making the WiFi work
- making my speaker work
I would be really really thankful.
Also, there is a little scratch on the case of the phone - it may have been opened before i got it - what could this mean?
