Ok here we go:
If you have a gmail account import all of your contacts from your address book to gmail through the web.
Sync your iPhone
Backup your iPhone plug into iTunes right click the device and click backup.
Backup phone to iCloud.
Okay here is where we are going to basically wipe the phone out and start from scratch.
1. Plug phone into PC or MAC and go to iTunes and click restore.
2. Let the phone go through the restore process.
3. DO NOT RESTORE THE PHONE FROM A BACKUP.
4. Disconnect from iTunes and proceed with the onscreen instructions to setup phone.
5. Select your language
6. Turn Location Services on (it's ok to do that now) more later.
7. Continue through the setup process until your phone looks like it is new.
8. Now this is what we are going to do. Plug the phone into iTunes and SYNC.
9. Disconnect phone when SYNC is complete.
10. Setup GMAIL as exchange go to settings>Mail Contacts>Calendar and select EXCHANGE
11. Your email is your FUL gmail account. BTW copy it you will need it in a second.
12. Username: paste your email account
13. Password: (self explanatory)
14. Domain: Leave empty
15. Click next
16. Server: m.google.com
17. Click next and all should verify
18. Next screen make sure email , contacts and calendar are on.
19. Your contacts will come back from GMAIL (Cloud).
20. At this point we are going turn off unnecessary settings.
21. Siri turn off raise to speak. ( the IR sensor stays on constantly if you don't)
Turn OFF the following

Kill your battery until the phone shuts off and charge back to 100% preferably from Wall Charger. Remove from charger let it run down 5-10% and charge it again to 100%
Enjoy the phone!!

it worked for me.......11-18-11 03:37 PM - ok, AP i have a question(s) in regards to this setting. I went into my phone and had to "enable restrictions" with a pass code. I turned PING off (all others were ON). closed out. thought nothing else of it.
I then tried to access my tapatalk to reply to a post here on CB, but it told me that my "agent had restricted" me, traced back my steps to the restriction i set as you had posted above. went in, turned it back off (disabled it). Went back to tapatalk and entered my PW again, and i was on no problems.
Was that suppose to happen, or did i miss a setting for something else? Also, what exactly does the 'restriction enable' do?
Thanks
11-18-11 04:52 PM - I can't say that's ever happened to me jebulls sorry. BUT a lot of times when I charge now, as soon as I see the 100% with the 'plug' icon in the battery I unplug my charger from my 4S.
I think someone has mentioned here or somewhere else, I can't rem, that once the phone is fully charged to 100% at some point there's a circuit that shuts off the charge feature even tho its still plugged and the battery will start to drain to a certain point before it picks back up to charge again to 100%. But I've never seem that happen with mine, even in the beginning when I charged over night, I'd still wake up to it showing 100% from being plugged in overnight.
Perhaps you may need a trip to the Gb to clear this up if it's an issue, or if your 4S is behaving as it should
