My friend just updated his phone to 1.1.3 after he updated he lost signal then when he showed it to
me I asked him to turn it off then on to see if he gets a singnal.. Well he did it and then the phone restated as if he just bought it.. Can't make calls or go to the home screen all it shows is slide for emergency .. Please help
Dock it to the computer and see what happens. iTunes will most likely show up, and I would try a Restore. If it doesn't show up on the computer or in iTunes, take it to the Apple Store.
He probably didn't allow it enough time to activate it through itunes... have him plug it in, restore, update, and then give it enough time to activate.
