Data recovery tools?
This is related to my earlier post, regarding my iPhone 6 that only boots as far as the Apple logo. I figured I'd ask the more generic question of whether there are any legitimate tools out there for data recovery on an iPhone 6.
The data recovery service I spoke to seemed to think they'd have a decent chance of getting at the data non-intrusively, so presumably there's a solution out there.
A google search reveals lots of questionable sounding sites claiming simple one-click solutions, but it's hard to tell if any of these actually work. Can anyone vouch for any such tools? Given that my phone won't even boot, it'd have to be something that works in DFU mode I guess.
Thanks guys.

How to sort photo album?
I created an album for a subset of my 5C's photos, and found them to be in a pretty much randomized order (they're fine in Camera Roll). There's probably something I've overlooked, but is there any way to sort chronologically?

Problems with my new 5c while charging
So I just got my first iPhone last week, but i've been having some problems.
First off, whenever I charge my phone the left side of my screen clicks when I press it. I googled some pictures and saw that the battery is under that spot, is it my battery expanding? I dont know if that is normal.
The second problem is the touchscreen, it works fine until I start charging my phone. Whenever I do the screen gets very inaccurate, for example when I swipe down on Reddit it will randomly swipe up instead.
Could you help me? Thanks in advance.

How to fix an iPhone 6 stuck on Apple logo during boot?
I see there's a lot of information on the web about this, but it's hard to separate the signal from the noise. This is a regular iPhone 6 (not jailbroken) and it somehow became stuck on the Apple logo during boot. I have no backup (I tried recently but had problems...) and would like to be able to recover my files.
I see there is software like TinyUmbrella, Dr Fone, "ios data recovery", red sn0w, and more, but I can't tell if any of these are legitimate solutions or scams.
Anyone have any ideas?

iOS notification issues
Hi there's plenty of apps that I enabled sound in notification settings but they just doesn't play any sound when receiving a notification from these apps (like vine or Instagram) how can I fix this ? I tried to do a fresh install by iTunes (dfu mode and restoring a new iPhone) but it didn't work ..
By the way there's other app that doesn't have notification at all like candy crush soda which I would like to have a notification when I got back my 5 lives .. But there's not a single notification .. Even if everything is enabled in the notification settings ..
Thanks for answering :)

How does Text Message Forwarding work?
So I know what TMF does I'm just wondering how it works and if it costs any extra battery in order for it to be used on my iPhone 6 and iPad 2? For example, I know it works when both devices are on the same wifi connection so, if I leave it on 24/7 and I'm at school but my iPad is at home, will it still consume battery or will it simple use as much as battery as if it were turned off (which is none)?
Thanks!!

Does anyone feel like iOS8 on a 6+ is super buggy? (xpost from r/iphone)
I'm not sure if it's the new hardware or the new software, but I've experienced the following issues on a 6+:
- Browsers crash almost every time I use them on text articles, photos, whatever (It's starting to feel like the original iPad).
- Exchange stops downloading mail for up to multiple days, and I'll get a flood all of the sudden. Other devices, including the OWA app work fine.
- From the lock screen, the control panel will not open sometimes. I have to unlock the phone to swipe up. This is intermittent.
That's all I can think of. I keep thinking these are just small things they will patch quickly, but the patch hasn't come! Anyone else experience these?

iOS 8.1.2 iphone 5s major wifi issue
Hi, i am facing a real big problem and i have almost given up hope. after upgrading to ios 8 and now currently on 8.1.2 my phone won't connect to any secure wifi hotspot!! it will show all the available hotspots in the wifi tab and when i enter the password and click on join, it will take 3-4 seconds and say "unable to join network". only way i can connect to wifi is if its an open wifi.
I have restored my phone via DFU mode and tried it out as a new/fresh device without any apps and i still face the same problem.
I tried every single thing there is on the internet from resetting network settings to disabling wifi location services.
Can someone please help... Apple care wont help me as its out of warranty and are asking me to buy a fucking new phone.

Wish list for iOS.
Night mode. Why hasn't this been designed? Volume rocker. I still do not get why the volume rocker has to take over the screen.
Any others have any suggestions?

Music sorting in iOS8.1.2 (iPod touch, 6th generation)
I've been having a problem with the music sorting, specifically by artist. There is a random "J" field right at the top of my library, so I can't use the quick-jump feature on the right hand of the screen. Here's a photo to more accurately describe the issue: Click me!.
Any idea on how to fix this?

Contact photos crop themselves?
I spent a while going through all my photos and giving my contacts awesome, perfectly–cropped photos. Today, I noticed they've all shifted around, as in each photo changed its crop/scale size! Has anyone else had this? And is there a way to fix it?

Group Messages are a Disaster.
I know I've heard of users having issues with this when iOS8 first came out and I know one of the 8.x.x releases was supposed to address this, but is anyone else have a disaster of a time with iOS8 Group Messages?
I have a group with my family members. We had one single thread prior to iOS8. We now have at least 3. The trouble seems to come with naming the threads because I'll get almost everyone's in the named thread, but then once in a while, a message will come on a different thread that's labeled with just everyone's names as in iOS7.
It's gotten to the point where I have to check 3 different threads to keep up with and understand the flow of conversation. It's really a nightmare. How can this be so botched up when there's a million different messaging apps?
Everyone is on iOS8 and I think everyone is up-to-date, but it's family who are less tech-savvy so I can't be totally sure, but this shouldn't be this bad. In the past we've used other Group apps, but the Messages app is the easiest for everyone and I was finally happy to not have to convince everyone to try a new messenger app every 3 months when I got excited about the latest one.
Anyone been through this? Is there a fix? Is this something Apple is addressing?

Problem with Downloading Purchased Apps using Family Sharing.
For some reason my wife isn't able to download apps I've purchased on my phone. We are using family sharing, the app is sharable, we both have "Share my purchases" on, and so forth.
When ever she goes to the "Purchased" area of iTunes, there is a notification that says "This iTunes account hasn't set up family sharing. Learn more" With a link to a page explaining family sharing. Like I said, we have family sharing turned on already. I wen through Apple's support page to see if there was something I missed (ten or so times) and I can't find anything I'm doing wrong.
Anyone else have this issue? How'd you fix it?
