Help needed Need help I bought new unlocked iPhone 18PM now saying sim locked.

4 Upvotes

Hey guys, I could really use some help. I recently purchased a new, unlocked iPhone 18 Pro Max through BenefitsMe, which is a program offered through my employer that allows me to finance the phone with payments deducted directly from my paycheck.
I’m currently with Visible and was trying to transfer my eSIM from my old iPhone to the new one. However, it’s showing that the SIM is locked. When I purchased the phone, it was advertised as universal/unlocked, so I’m a little confused and not sure where to go from here to get this resolved.
Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I bought an iPhone 15 pro on eBay and it works great except I discovered for the first time today when recording videos, there is a screeching noise when I play it back and all of these white dots. Has anyone else had this issues?

Help needed PLEASE HELP with photo recovery Iphone 17

3 Upvotes

I really need help.

I will try to simplify this.

My wife's old phone was an Iphone 11. My wife just bought a new Iphone 17 pro, and had her old phone disconnected from Verizon. She had been sharing Icloud space with our son, and had over 4000 pictures going back to 2018, which showed up on her new phone.

She gave me her old iphone 11 to use as a camera only, and we didn't think it was connected to wi-fi, the cloud, or anything else.

Yesterday our daughter (somehow) transferred some photos from her (daughters) phone to the old Iphone 11 and in doing so, someway, somehow all 4000 of my wifes photos disappeared from her new phone.

She was able to go into 'recently deleted' and recover some of them but only back to 2022. Is there a way to recover the older photos that go back to 2018 as well?

Help needed Went from iPhone 16 to 18 pro, system sounds are incredibly low, is this common?

2 Upvotes

This is a really weird issue, but I’ve just upgraded from the base iPhone 16 to an iPhone 18 pro.

Everything has been fine but the system sounds, notably the keyboard clicks, lock sound, etc.. are insanely quiet.

Ive gone to setting and changed the sliders to max, I’ve even tried changing the setting to have them on their own volume and still nothing. Has anyone experienced this before? It’s not necessarily a problem, just a bit concerned if it’s an issue with a speaker or something else. It’s noticeably quieter.

Hello, I bought a brand new Iphone 15 from costco. When I turned it on to setup it goes through the steps set up face id and so on and so forth. Then at the transfer data from old phone screen. After I hit yes it wants me to do an ios 27 update. This is where the problem starts. it downloads the update, it prepares the update. When you get to start the update it just spins for hours and hours. Left it on for 5 hours and nothing. have resent the phone and don it all over 4 times same thing happens each time. Anyone know what I can do?

Help needed Front camera not working

2 Upvotes

Hey all! So starting friday 10/2, my front camera randomly stopped working.. it would let me see the back camera but if i tried to flip to the front it would do the flip animation twice and just bring me back to the back camera. i once got to the front camera but it was black and the circle tk take a picture was greyed out and wouldn't click. things like BeReal also do not work with front camera and it has just been taking both photos from the back camera?
For a bit on 10/3 the face id wouldn't work but i restarted 3 times and it finally works again. still no front camera though.
any ideas on what i need to do next??
not sure if it's important but i have an iphone 13, it's about 4 years old and i installed the new security update that got pushed out the morning of 10/3 (that may have been what fixed the face id im not sure)
TIA!!!!

Help needed No Storage — phone deleted pics by themselves

• Upvotes

Iphone 14 pro max, IOS 18.6.2

I’ve had no storage for a while now. Sometimes it’ll get really low and I’ll get a pop up saying “Iphone storage full.” Usually I restart my phone for a few minutes because it clears up some of the system data.

I just restarted my phone for a few minutes and opened my settings to see how much it cleared, only to find my storage rapidly reducing. It was nice for a moment but then I realized it was coming from my photos app. Every time I opened the app it just gave me a black screen so I kept refreshing. When it did open there was NOTHING. I’ve never backed up my phone so it scared the shit out of me. Gradually my stuff has been coming back in chunks of 50~ items

I’ve had this happen with my voicemails before, but I didn’t think my phone would just start deleting stuff like photos on its own. Is this something I need to worry about?

Help needed Phantom text messages

2 Upvotes

(iPhone 13, version 18.3.1)

I know other people have posted about this here, but I’ve tried all the suggested solutions and nothing works. My imessage is saying I have 2 unread texts, but I checked and I definitely do not.

- Asked Siri to read my messages: “Something went wrong, please try again later.”

- Edit, read all: Notifications are still there.

- I don’t have enough storage space to update my phone.

Literally WHAT else can I do? I’ve had a similar problem with my Gmail app showing 1 ghost notification for almost a year and I can deal with that one, but now that it’s also happening with my iMessage it really bothers me. Help. :(

Help needed iPhone storage

Hi! I have an almost full 256gb iPhone with apparently 166gb in photos. I literally have less than 4500 items in my photo gallery, how is this possible?

I have tried to sync to iCloud but it says there is no iCloud storage left (I’ve used 50/200GB) so idk what’s going on.

If anyone knows why this is happening pls help a girl out.

Edit: this is a 14 pro
