Today, I was installing the official 3.0 firmware update for my iPhone. Apple's authentication servers crashed. I now own an iBrick. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I bought my first iPhone. Today, I broke my first iPhone. FML
Today, I bought an otter box. While setting up my iPhone, I dropped it and it is now shattered. FML
Today, at the Apple Store, the crew, security, manager, technician, and fellow customers alike, never bothered covering up to laugh at me when I went there to have my phone fixed. Someone somehow hacked my iPhone, and when I use the Face ID, it makes a bloodcurdling scream of fear in full volume, then shuts down. FML
Today, I went to the Apple store to try and figure out what's going on with my iPhone. After an hour of speaking to three different geniuses and waiting around, their solution was to "Google it." FML
Today, my parents gave me an iPhone. They then checked my grades online, and promptly took it away. FML
Today, my iPhone got back from being fixed. When I opened the box there was a note attached to my phone that said, "All you had to do was turn it on." FML
Today, my history teacher confiscated my iPhone. She dropped it on the way back to her desk, and I now have a shattered iPhone screen to fix. FML
Today, after calling the insurance plan for my new iPhone a "huge waste of money", I promptly dropped it in the store while trying to put it into my pocket, cracking the screen. FML
Today, I gave my little brother my iPhone so he could play a game. I soon forgot about it, and when I got it back two hours later, there was pudding and a couple of big cracks in it. FML
Today, my new iPhone was stolen from my school locker. After canceling my service, sobbing, having my mom yell at the secretary for their lack of security and finally agreeing to change to a private school, I found it in the corner of my locker. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

put your iphone into DFU mode, then boot it with 1clickboot.

Everything from Apple sucks. There is always something superior and easier to use than anything from Apple.

OMG... seriously ... what is wrong with you people... this fml is not about apple... its about the owner of the phone being disappointed after trying something.... and to those who say that ppl who dont like apple cant afford it and to those who say apple is overrated... APPLE is NOT even the MOST ******* EXPENSIVE thing in the market and definitely NOT the BEST either ... be it phones or computers... like all other phones/computers/any other electronic products.... it has its pluses and minus... so just calm down... no phone is perfect...!

I have had to deal with the white screen of death, a black screen with steve jobs speaking Russian, and two full restores on my jailbroken iPhone but it has survived and is running perfect on 3.0 right now. People should not get complicated pieces of technology if they can't even use google to fix things themselves. Either way, if you go to the Apple store they will give you a new one with hardly any questions because they don't know how to fix things either.
