[quote name="Damnapple" url="/t/160054/ios-7-update-brings-more-wi-fi-issues-for-some-iphone-4s-owners/90#post_2434317"]Ya my phone is out of warranty. So what. Apple keeps suggesting me upgrading to iOS7 and breaks my phone. So they don't need to take any responsibility??? Not even a sorry from them. If you are willing to pay 200 dollars for a refurbished phone which might happen same issue again and again. Please go ahead and buy it yourself. I would rather spend this money for another manufacture's phone. The money is not the most important thing. I am looking for justice ok???? Because this issue doesn't happened to you, so you can give an onlooker's unsolicited comments. If you don't have this issue, please shut up and go comment at other place because you are not helping.
Actually I was hoping you would quit crying and grow up. The whole point of a warranty is that the company stops being responsible for any issues after the warranty period. If it lasted two years without issue, then apple does not NEED to do anything. The responsibility to do something about it falls to you. You are posting on a forum. How are my comments unsolicited? You my friend need a dictionary. Look up warranty and forum and then go away
Apple should replace all broken iphone4s for free due to update of iOS7 which destroys wifi chip.
Apple refuses to investigate and give a clear answer on this in public. They tried to ignore all evidences or analysis which shows it is a problem caused by its software. They blamed this problem to customer's defective hardware without evidence. It is obvious against the law. We need US government's attention!!!!
WIFI Greyed out in iOS7 iPhone 4 or iPhone 4s is a hardware issue and you need professional help. podmod de fixes the issue for 69 Euros in 20 Minutes. check the website and get it repaired. See http://www.podmod.de/
i would like to share with you how i fixed my iphone 4s after ios 7.0.4 update and lose of wifi, bluetooth greyed out.
Ive resolved the grayed out wifi bluetooth issue, i just wanted to share this with you and hope it works for you as well as i tried everything and got no where.
i was innocently updating a fully working Iphone 4s no problems ever, after the ios 7.0.4 update i lost all wifi and bluetooth which was grey out.
After having contacted apple they told me like everyone else hardwear issues, i never beleived this from the start as the iphone previously worked fine before the update. Also if you check settings - General - about phone - wifi has no address where as before it was fine.I almost believe in my case the ios 7.0.4 has deactivated the wifi hardware by not re-entering a address upon updating as a issue.
As the iphone is out of warrenty apple informed me if the item has a issue we could replace for £166 for out of warrenty, "what for downloading apple software thats prevented a perfect phone from working"! I informed apple this is a common issue and on the apple support communities site many people have this issue, the response was dont believe anything online.
Literally i searched the entire internet for solutions, from trying to downgrade software and use tinyumbrellas software to alter the host settings to enable itune to download without a popup message of 'this device isnt eligible for the requested build' basiscally a block download. To more obscure solutions such as placing the iphone in a freezer or using a hair dryer. Please check these online for further reference.
I would just like to share the fact if all else fails and you dont believe the obscure solutions work please have another rethinken, as they did in my case as id like to share my resolution with you.Please check online for further references if you prefer, but i to was doubtful about this idea and melting the phone etc.

The same thing happened to 2 of my iPhone 4S that were purchased at the same time. I had one and my daughter had one. Different usage levels, same phone. Upgraded to iOS 7, and my WiFi card was fried within a month. I took it in for warranty replacement (I bought a carrier warranty through Rogers that replaced the phone within 2 years.) My daughter's phone soon followed. She did not want to be without a phone over Christmas, so I made her shut off the data and we would take it in after the holidays. Nope. She ended up dropping the phone- and even though it was in an Otterbox Defender case, it broke the screen- which voided the warranty.
So now my question is. Will this ever be fixed? The replacement 4S I got has iOS 6 on it, and I am too afraid to upgrade to iOS 7. I sucked it up and replaced my daughter's phone with a 5S- added the $100 bucks for Apple Care and made her pay for the works of it. The apps I use are updating to the new operating system, and I am able to use less and less of them. Please fix it, or tell me that if I must upgrade, Apple will replace my phone or put another WiFi card in it.
This is a reported hardware issue and has noting to do with the software. These are Broadcom chips that are losing connection. Please go to http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559?viewlocale=en_US, follow the directions and if it does not work then seek service. If the device is out of warranty then you will be charged, Simple as that.
iPhone 4s WIFI issue is a hardware issue and the chip needs to be replaced/repaired. so far, the only one that does this worldwide and permanten is podmod.de

Here's some more information about this petition:

They blamed this problem to customer's defective hardware without evidence. It is obvious against the law. We need US government's attention!!!!
That's not gonna fly. Any petition for that matter. But you know that, right?
Never. You need to be personally investigated for wasting government time with this nonsense.
