Like With the Computer, Users Unfortunately Battle iPhone Blue Screen of Death

Pretty much everyone who is at least somewhat familiar with computers and technology understands the sheer frustration and fury that comes once their laptop screen gets hit with the blue screen of death.

Does that also apply to phones? Well, it is a device containing a hard drive, so definitely! Currently, hundreds of people are reporting their T-Mobile phones are suffering from a bad case of iPhone blue screen of death.

Blue screen of death not just applying to computers and laptops anymore

It can be safe to say that the case of ‘blue screen death’ is no longer happening to computers. Sadly, that is not the case as it is now going widespread towards phone. Right now, only T-Mobile iPhones are being reported as the only ones dealing with this headache-inducing scenario, being iPhone blue screen.

According to one distressed customer on Reddit, even though they had their iPhone for a short period of time of approximately four months, it had already started to restart on its own several times. Not only was this happening incessantly to this distressed customer, but also to their partner. In addition, this was also happening to dozens of other disgruntled customers who are currently being inconvenienced, all because of the iPhone blue screen of death.

How the wretched iPhone blue screen is not a first and how to deal with it

Unsurprisingly, this is not the first time iPhones, especially from T-Mobile, have faced the insufferable blue screen of death. Because of this, there are many ways to fix the issue. In reality, though, they are temporary fixes. Reports say that if customers are having this issue with their iPhones, then they can either feel free to do a hard reset by “simultaneously holding down the home and lock keys and waiting for the phone to restart,” while others said that disabling Wi-Fi calling for a couple of minutes does the trick. Eventually, if all else fails unfortunately and it is time to wave the white flag, either continuing to call T-mobile support or getting a replacement phone will be the best way out.

Meanwhile, T-Mobile has yet to comment on the issue of blue screen with their iPhones.

Free T-Mobile Phone Upgrade Anytime with New Jump on Demand Plan - http://clapway.com/2015/06/25/free-t-mobile-phone-upgrade-anytime-with-new-jump-on-demand-plan876/

This Sunday, June 28th, T-Mobile will release their new plan, ‘Jump on Demand,’ where individuals can trade whatever phone they want in, for a maximum of three times a year. This T-Mobile phone upgrade is free, as if the phone is being leased, unless the person is interested in officially buying the phone.

‘Jump’ vs. ‘Jump on Demand’ as a proper T-Mobile phone upgrade

T-Mobile may already have a plan of a slightly similar name. However, there are still some vast differences between the two, when it comes to providing a proper T-Mobile phone upgrade. Payment for the former, whether trading the phone or eventually buying it, is one of them. According to recent reports, “T-Mobile has a similar ‘Jump’ plan, but it requires an additional $10 a month for the option to trade in your phone every six months. The new plan ditches the $10 a month fee and the six-month wait time.” With ‘Jump’ requiring additional payments just for leasing the phone alone, ‘Jump on Demand’ plans to solve that problem even though both of these plans happen to be involved in the same company.

The ‘Jump on Demand’ plan as a T-Mobile phone upgrade

T-Mobile’s ‘Jump on Demand’ plan is meant to be a way for individuals who wish to stay updated on the latest phones to remain satisfied without putting much of a dent in their wallet. Researchers and companies on this matter suggest that T-Mobile is trying to cater to the 47% of the public that wishes their carrier would let them upgrade phones more often. According to the company, the average person keeps his or her phone for 20 months. ‘Jump’ customers already beat that with 14 months. With the ‘Jump on Demand’ plan, this will most likely bring the time down due to individuals not having commitment to something that they may reject later on in a few months. Furthermore, with a new plan come competitors who will either be attempting to do the same, or have already tried and failed.

How will Jump on Demand as a T-Mobile phone upgrade fare alongside the competition?

Recent reports stated that carriers such as AT&T, Verizon, and Sprint have initially sold off several of their plans similar to T-Mobile’s ‘Jump on Demand’ plan. However, they were eventually revealed to be strict two-year contracts. Therefore, these three carriers’ marketing strategies was more or less to deceive. Will T-Mobile’s new plan prove to be satisfactory or another two-year contract-in-disguise?
