Today, I was installing the official 3.0 firmware update for my iPhone. Apple's authentication servers crashed. I now own an iBrick. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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.

Sucks to be you. Mine updated flawlessly. But I'm sure it will be rectified.

Actually to buy the iPhone sans contract you need about $700.

I upgraded my wife's iPhone and mine yesterday evening, no problem. If you are not fixed up by now, you are an idiot. This is not an FML. At worst, it's a F*** My Day (an FMD).

BS COMPARED TO MY FMYLIFE YESTERDAY W/ SAME PROBLEM the server did crash yesterday as I was updating mine, and all I could do was dial 911 and check the time...Im a lifeguard and had to go to work for 6 hours in "not enough shitty weather to cancel work but shitty enough for nobody to come in" all i could do was check the time, damnt i was going to write this FML...and it was fixed after about an hour (the servers, i called apple) I on the otherhand had to wait 6 hours while i was at work with basically a goddamn stopwatch to keep me entertained the whole time
