Just plugged in my iphone to macbook like I do almost daily and nothing happened. I do have the 3.1 software unfortunately, though I haven't heard of this symptom, I have experienced the random "coma"3 times. But I've synced several times since 3.1 download. Phone doesn't even show up in itunes 9. iphone doesn't even recharge power through computer but still does through outlet adapter.

ipod application freezes phone; won't ...
just started having this problem spontaneously--3.1.2 update appeared to be successful and the phone was playing music fine yesterday. today, when i try to play tunes, it simply freezes the phone and requires a reboot.
tried plugging into itunes to see if i could correct the problem, but itunes just gives me "verifying iphone," no matter how long i leave it in.
anyone have success resolving these issues?

Hi, I cannot get my iPhone 3G to sync on either of my two PC's (both running XP). I have iTunes 9.0.1 installed. I have uninstalled iTunes on one machine, rebooted the PC and installed iTunes again - still no joy. No message appears on iPhone or on PC. Have rebooted iPhone several times using soft key and on/off key. Have rebooted PC. Both PCs have "services.msc" started. Under devmgmt.msc, device is not seen under USB Controllers. Have tested USB by connecting iPod - which is immediately detected.

iPhone powering down by itself! Please ...
For the second time today, my iPhone has turned off by itself. The first time, it turned back on in about 5-10 minutes, but this time, I locked it after sending a text message, and went to check it less than three minutes ago, and the screen didn't turn on. I pressed the home button twice, held the hold/lock switch for a bit, and even tried calling it, but it didn't ring, and the call went to voicemail. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. I can provide most of the information from the first time it happened, so feel free to ask if you need more.

iPhone has a white screen ...
I dropped my iphone the other day (not from very high up) and immediately after the screen went white. I was able to answer a call while the screen was still white by touching the screen as I normally would. I tried restarting it but that didn't work. I can still hear when I receive texts. I took it in since it's under warranty but was told that the little water indicator inside was pink. I did get the phone wet 7 months ago but never had a problem with it as a result of that. Apple won't fix it under warranty because of this. Is there any way to fix this? I really would appreciate your help! Thanks!

Common Apple, do you do any quality checks before releasing any software? With former firmwares since V3, the connection dropped once a while, now with 3.1.2 it drops the network connection nearly after every call. **** APPLE, THIS IS A PHONE! If I have to check its condition every time i want to call or try to receive one, the I don't need it! Stop making electronic toys, start producing useful tools again! A phone which can play music but cannot handle phone networks is simply crap! I "use" an iPhone 3G without any simlock or netlock.

Hey all,
Well, all of a sudden one of my apps went MIA. Don't remember seeing any notice about erasing and then asking for feedback, as is usually done. There are three steps to dump an app, first of which is to hold down on an app to make them wiggle. Then come the two questions. SO, how can I take my phone out of my pocket and have an app be gone?!
This happen to my wife last month. She has my old 2G phone and it's synced to her computer. I have a 3G and it's synced to my MBP. Any thoughts? Yes, I can sync and get it back, but the real question is how was it so easy to dump?

Urgent help - 3.1.2 issue!? ...
Hi guys,
Plugged my iPhone through USB for only the 2nd time since I got it (2nd hand though) and iTunes offered a 3.1.2 upgrade.
Decided to go for it and everything seemed fine. Backed everything up (apparently) and downloaded 3.1.2.
Shortly after I got the 'iTunes' screen and nothing was working. Closed iTunes and started it again. I get a message saying it's in recovery mode and needs to restore.
Hopefully I won't lose anything and do actually have everything backed up but after waiting for restore to do it's business I get an error message - think it's the same error 28 other people are having.
And that's it...
Been reading around and a few people think it's a hardware issue but I don't see how that can be possible. I have had no problems AT ALL with the iPhone right up until I accepted 3.1.2 and now I have this.
What's the best plan of action? Will I lose everything (Apps, contacts, photos, etc)?
Thanks,
Cammy
EDIT - Just checked again. It's coming up with an error 1604. The iTunes logo stays on but when iTunes says "preparing iPhone to restore" the screen flickers and turns black.
Really need this sorted asap (obviously).

I've reset, rebooted, reset all settings and nothing seems to have fixed it.
Is there some information inside the iPhone that might be borked or something?

Otterbox or Revo2? Opinions wanted ...
I posted this in the 3Gs forum, but thought I might be able to get some feedback here as well.
I will be getting a new iPhone 3Gs in a few weeks, as soon as I am eligible for the upgrade. My 3G that I had had for 16 months started acting wonky and the guy at the Apple store said it was moisture damage. Knowing how I babied that phone I still do not know how that could have happened, but that is water under the bridge (no pun intended). I do know that on my next case I want attached covering for the connector port and headphone jack. I think I have it narrowed down to the Otterbox Defender or the iSkin Revo2. I like the color of the Revo, but it sounds like the Defender is better for all out protection. I know people say it is bulky, but I was using a leather case that covered my iPhone front and back so I am used to some bulk.
Opinions please--Otterbox Defender or Revo2? (or if there is something else out there I have missed, I am open to suggestions.)
Thanks in advance.

iPhone firmware update 3.1.2 is out! ...
Whew relief at last! but 'your mileage may vary'. I am very curious how well it's working. I really hope 'comatose' is a word we can quickly forget.
I was at 3.1 last night and had hopefully my last coma ever. I put on 3.1.2 and it went very smoothly other than for some reason some of my apps lost their data. (i lost hundreds of entries from my 'Lose-it' weight management program (AWESOME by the way; down almost 20# since July).
Since putting on 3.1.2, however, phone not quite as responsive as yesterday on 3.1 (something i can deal with if it never 'goes coma' again), but once in a while it's a pretty long pause, like a 4 sec. pause in the middle of a tapping a word; again if it's a trade-off to have the phone work 100% of the time i can cope with that.
Anybody that does try the upgrade and has a problem, please go through the normal steps of putting on a clean install before 'going ballistic'. Basically, i would recommend doing a backup, putting the phone into DFU BEFORE the first attempt of 3.1.2 (which i didn't do... could be related to the 'stutters' i'm getting right now).
I recommend this method:
1. backup your phone manually (in case it doesn't ask) -

Buzzing noise coming from earpiece when ...
I get a very annoying buzzing noise that is very similar to the GSM buzz (noise it makes when phone is next to a pair of speakers) that comes from my earpiece when I'm making phone calls on EDGE. The noise gets louder as the reception gets worse. If I have full reception, the noise is only slightly audible. If I have 1 bar, the buzzing noise is louder than the conversation going on making it nearly impossible to hear what the other side is saying. Most of the time I'm in a area where there isn't 3G and I don't have full reception, so the noise is very annoying.
I have taken it to 3 different Apple stores. The first time, the genius bar rep just restored my phone and told me to come back if it still persists. The second time at a different store, the rep did the same exact thing. The third time, the rep said my warranty was just out so he wanted me to pay $199 for repairs.
Is there any way I can fix the iPhone myself? I really don't want to pay $200 to fix this issue.

Problem with earphones ...
Hi there,
Last week my music decided to start sounding strange which was down to a bad connection problem with the headphone jack. The previous week I also noticed my in line mic doesn't work when making calls even though I can hear the other person on the phone. I've come to conclusion that the connection has deteriorated for sum reason. I've done all the normal removal of debris techniques and found a load of fluff etc but earphones still don't work.
When I pull them out slightly i get full audio through the headphones but as soon as i let go the whole connection is lost.
I've noticed some other people have had similar problems but they were usually resolved by removing debris. Is there a simple fix that people are aware of or will I have to lose my phone for a couple of days by sending it to O2 or an apple store?
Any help would be great!!

Wrong version requirement ...
Hi,
the developer of the OpenStreetMap based routing app assured, that the latest version was built for OS 3.0 but the App Store shows version 3.1 as a requirement.
I don't want to update because Apple permits the allowed tethering option here in Germany.
Here is the discussion (in german): http://forum.roadee.net/index.php?topic=336.0
How can I install the app without having OS 3.1?
Thanks!

iPhone bricked on update ...
I set my phone to update to the latest version, and I was given an error 2005 that the update failed. Now the phone doesn't work, it displays a "connect to iTunes" icon, and iTunes can only tell me that the phone is busted and must be restored---which it can't do without giving me the same error.
I am not about to skip work and drive a couple hours to the nearest Apple store so I can have a working phone. What can I do?
My iTunes is the most recent version, I did a clean reset of the computer, etc. It was working just fine until the update.

Apple in-ear headphones stuck in ear! ...
Anyone that can confirm this would be great. I had a case yesterday where the apple in-ear bud tips were stuck in my ear. I don't stick them in an incredibly far depth, and keep them in good quality.
I merely listened to them normally with my music, and when removing them, the tip of my right ear bud got stuck in my ear. I almost went to the hospital or doctor, as I was concerned about trying to remove it. I wish they would redesign the buds so that the tips would screw in as opposed to "slipping" on - as they can obviously "slip" off as well.
Any feedback would be great.

New iPhone headphone jack issues ...
Hello,
I've just got a replacement iphone yesterday and upon trying headphones I noticed that I can only get sound out of one earphone. If I pull the jack out a little bit it sort of works out of both. I've tried 3 sets of headphones - all have the same issue. Is this a common/known problem or am I going to have to wait another 5 weeks for a new one!?

Uninstalled Facebook App not completely ...
I was recently having issues with the Facebook application so I tried to remove i so that I could just reinstall it. I performed the usual act of removing by tapping the "x" on the Facebook icon and it appeared that the app had been removed. But when I tried to install the app from the App it says its already install. There is also a tab in settings for the Facebook app but it is blank. Has anyone encountered this issue? If so, is there a remedy? Thanks.

iPhone to Touch for grand daughter ...
Our first iPhone, a first gen model, had been given to our daughter a bit over a year ago. She's now bought a brand new 3G s model and we're wanting to give the first model to the daughter of our other daughter. Ok, that would be my grand daughter by our other daughter. We don't need, nor want the phone features but simply want her to be able to use it as a Touch. Fiona, the grand daughter in question, just turned three and is totally fascinated by our iPhone apps. When she visits us one of the main things we do is play on the iPhone with Koi Pond and a multitude of other toddler apps. But back to the issue. Firstly, the daughter giving the iPhone wants to know how she can transfer her app set to her new phone and secondly, can daughter #2 get an iTunes account and use the old iphone as a Touch. TIA

Security code invalid when setting up ...
So I recently got an iPhone 3G. I was setting up an account and adding a credit card when it stops me saying "please enter a valid security code" for the credit card. I am not blind and I have used my card for online activity for years. I know my security code is entered correct. The iPhone is useless with getting apps unless I enter a credit card and I am being prevented form doing so by powers outside of my control... What that flip am I suppose to do?
And I do have the iPhone with the most up-to-date 3.1 update along with the most current version of iTunes on my PC. I've tried to log into the account on both the PC and the iPhone and BOTH tell me my credit card security number is invalid. I like how a dang application can decide that I am wrong on entering my security code on my credit card.
How do I get around this lame issue?

Bluetooth headset doesn't always ...
I have a plantronics 510 headset, runnint latest iPhone OS 3.1.2 (7D11). I paired my headset to my phone no problem. The issue I am having is that when I turn the headset on the phone doesn't always reconnect with the headset automatically. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't.
I have tried resetting the phone, turing bluetooth on and off, deleting the headset from the phones list of bluetooth connections and repair it to the phone and still I get less than 50% auto reconnections when I power the headset on. It doesn't seem to matter if the phone is locked or at the home screen.
When it won't connect automatically, the only way I can get it to connect is to go into settings

Music Gone On iTunes ...
So, I'm very dependant on my iPhone for music just as all of its other features, and I have a pretty collective library of around 700 songs stored on my iPhone.
All of these songs were being synced from my laptop/iTunes, but recently my hard drive crapped out. When I took it in to be repaired I tried my hardest to save the music files on my computer but I couldn't.
So, seeing as I've lost all my songs and I can no longer sync my iPhone with iTunes without losing all of my music, I was wondering if there was ANY way to somehow transfer the songs from my iPhone back to my computer without losing all of my music (or any alternative method).
Thanks for all the help!

Microphone turning on for no apparent ...
I upgraded from 3.0 to 3.1 to 3.1.2 all in a very short period of time, so this problem might be for people with those OS as well however I'm currently using 3.1.2 and I am noticing that when I'm on Safari, or any app that happens to have a feature where you tap to enter information (such as the address bar/search feature), within about 3 seconds of taping and having the address bar/search feature/whatever come up, the clicking noise will happen (if it happens, since it doesn't always); when I put my ear to the microphone, it is obvious that the microphone is turning on (hence the soft clicking noise) and I can hear its static when my ear is up to it. I think this also might be happening at random other times as well, but it's very obvious that it happens most often when I am surfing around on Safari because I use it frequently and because if I'm in a quite room often typing in a URL or search, the clicking noise can be a constant annoyance. I suppose it is also worth mentioning that I recently (for an unrelated matter) went into General, Rest, and Reset All Settings.
Does anyone else have this problem, or have any suggestions?

Used to be able to copy photos to my PC ...
Until recently (roughly a month or two ago) I could connect my iPhone 3G with the USB cable and open the iPhone via My Computer (Win XP) and copy the selected pictures I wanted to transfer off to my hard drive. Now what happens is that I perform the same procedure, but no photos transfer. There are no indications (errors, etc.) as to why nothing happens, the files just don't copy over. I hit refresh in My Computer and the same files are there, but no new ones. I can, however, get the photos to transfer if I change the default behavior of the iPhone in Windows to transfer all files upon connecting it (although this copies everything and isn't what I want to do.) Any ideas would be appreciated. I am on 3.1.2 but had this problem before installing this most recent software update also.

Headphone remote control not working ...
For the past week or so I noticed that my remote control (clicking the microphone) was not working. I use this once in a blue moon, so I had no idea of what it could be and my phone has suffered no trauma recently. (Other than an uneventful upgrade to 2.2.1!)
So having the opportunity, I made an appointment to see a Genius in the London Regent Street store today. After stating that they would be happy to replace components (headphones, iPhone) the Genius first poked the socket with a bent paper clip and pulled out paper or fluff. After that it worked perfectly! He told me that one can do this at home but obviously with care, and not to stab blindly!
I'm impressed, and not having found any references to the problem when I searched for it I thought I would offer this experience. Naturally I have to warn that you would do such a thing at your own risk, it was not formally endorsed by Apple as a solution, and your mileage may vary!

No Sound since 3.1 update ...
Updated my iPhone this weekend to OS 3.1 and since then, there is NO SOUND NOTIFICATION.
ie. When someone calls or texts there is no sound,... when I send an email, there is no sound. If I manually trigger a sound (such as reviewing ringtones - it works fine).
All sound settings are correct - notifications are ON, silent is OFF, vibrate is OFF (but can be on anyways), all separate notifications are turned on, volume is UP to full.
Is anyone else experiencing this. This is DEFINITELY a result of the 3.1 update.

If you use Sony accessories with iPhone ...
So I own two Sony items which are compatible with iPhone 3G.
One is a Sony CD Boombox with iPod dock (Sony ZS-S2IP) another is a Sony Alarm Clock with iPhone dock (sony ICF-ClipMK2). Both of these had worked with my iPhone 3G. When plugging the iPhone onto the dock it got the inevitable "this accessory is not made to work with iPhone..." warning message, but THEY DID WORK nonetheless. Remote control, charging ability, playing music over the speakers, they fully worked.
NOW, after (very stupidly) upgrading to 3.1 firmware - NEITHER WORK. No charging, nothing. I get the "no compatible message" but they don't work.
So be warned, do not upgrade to 3.1 if you own these devices and still want them to work with an iPhone 3G.
Thanks Apple for not letting us downgrade back to 3.01

I'm trying to restore a friends Iphone. I've been trying for over a week now. I have the latest upgrades/updates - 3.1.2 and it seems to be going good.Then it bombs out and gives me error 28 Iphone could not be restored. Why and is this a software issue. I have ports open and my itunes is up to date - version 9. I read of a lot of people having this seem issue and very few have found a answer. Is there a way to go back update wise and just stay at a lower version to this issue is fixed? And does the restore need to be from their computer?

Problem with Ticketmaster site ...
In the past, I've been able to use Safari on my iPhone 3G to buy tickets on Ticketmaster.com. But it seems like they recently changed their site, and I can't get any of the drop down menus to work. When I get to the purchase tickets screen, I select the dropdown for the number of tickets, and the drum selector comes up. I select "2", but when I hit done, the dropdown returns to zero. Same thing happens on all the other drop downs - I can't change them from their default.
Does everyone else have this problem? Anyone know why?
Also, I noticed on my Mac, that the dropdowns on Ticketmaster.com don't let you use the keyboard, for example if you click on the number of tickets dropdown, you used to be able to type the number of tickets. Not anymore. You need to select it from the list with the mouse.

Avoiding erasing media files with a new ...
Hello. I've had my iphone for six months and I can't really live without it.
I've got a problem, though, trying to manually add some music to it. I recently formatted my hard drive and reinstalled itunes. When I try to change the setting to manually manage music and videos I get a window telling me I can have my iphone synced to only one itunes library. Thinking that really doesn't matter since I've always manually done it, and given options to either erase and sync or cancel, I hit cancel. This just leaves me where I started--unable to even access my music and videos through itunes. It appears there's no way to get around this without deleting everything currently on my iphone... all because of a function I've never needed or used.
So, my question is, how can I bypass this syncing issue and leave my iphone unchanged?

Buzzing noise coming from earpiece when ...
I get a very annoying buzzing noise that is very similar to the GSM buzz (noise it makes when phone is next to a pair of speakers) that comes from my earpiece when I'm making phone calls on EDGE. The noise gets louder as the reception gets worse. If I have full reception, the noise is only slightly audible. If I have 1 bar, the buzzing noise is louder than the conversation going on making it nearly impossible to hear what the other side is saying. Most of the time I'm in a area where there isn't 3G and I don't have full reception, so the noise is very annoying.
I have taken it to 3 different Apple stores. The first time, the genius bar rep just restored my phone and told me to come back if it still persists. The second time at a different store, the rep did the same exact thing. The third time, the rep said my warranty was just out so he wanted me to pay $199 for repairs.
Is there any way I can fix the iPhone myself? I really don't want to pay $200 to fix this issue.

iPhone 3G faulty battery indicator! ...
Well, my iPhone 3G has been giving me the wrong indication for battery life. Such as when it is dead (0% of battery life). I would plug it into the wall, and after a few seconds it jumps immediately to 50% or so. This really ticks me off because I do not know whether my phone is fully charged or not. Not only that but also when it's in use, sometimes when I reset it would give me a different % like from 80% after a hard reset to 33%. I've never dropped my iPhone before or anything. I've tried restoring it a few times but it's inevitable.
Does the firmware 3.1 fix this? Or is this iPhone faulty and I should go to the Genius Bar and get a replacement? I got this phone in February and it's still under warranty.
Hardware Specifications :
White iPhone 3G 16GB

Mysterious random total shut downs ...
Ok, I updated lastnight without a hitch. But now I get random complete shut downs of the phone. It has happened twice. In both instances the phone has come back after doing a hard reboot. Anyone else having this problem?
On my soap box for a minute: EVERY OS update that apple has released for the 3g since I've owned it (other than the last 2.1XX update) has cause problems. The 3.01 update caused it to hang and slow down to a crawl despite two different restores and reinstallations of everything and now this. How hard can it be to write an OS for a maximum of 3 hardware configurations? Does apple actually test this stuff before it goes out? If the slogan is "It just works" well it just doesn't when it comes to apples ability to provide a functional OS for one of their premiere devices.

Interesting cord and code errors ...
I have two issues. I have an iPhone 3G, about a year and a half old. Never noticed this happen before, has been happening for a few months now though. It happens wether I plug my phone into my computer or the wall. So, here is my best description... it is a little difficult. I will plug my phone in, and it will flicker between charging and not-charging (as if I was somehow plugging it in and out rapidly) for about 10 seconds. It makes the noises for it too. It will then stop, sometimes charging again and sometimes not and I will have to unplug it and plug it back in. I am worried for my battery, as I am sure this cannot be good.
Next error I get is only when I plug it into the computer. Sometimes, just after a sync (or if I do not sync at all and just charging) I will get a small box that pops up and says "An error has occurred with the device (0xE80000000)" or something to that extent. It does not seem to affect anything, I can still sync and no data is missing. This does not always occurr after the above problem.
So, any suggestions?

I seem to have a serious issue with my phone, I have around seven e-mails in my phone, every single time I go to delete them my mail just exits. This seems to happen after an approximate number of seconds. As such I'm completely unable to delete my mails from the inbox, if I do manage to delete the e-mails they then re-appear after the app has crashed. I've also tried resetting the phone too which also didn't work and deleted and manually recreated the accounts again, oh and reset the phone, none of which worked.

iPhone 3G battery drain increase after ...
I'm starting a new thread here because I want to make sure that the battery drain issue is looked at for the 3G, not just the 3GS.
After upgrading to 3.1, battery drain has increased dramatically, especially during idle standby mode.
With push, notification, GPS, Bluetooth, Wifi turned off, and screen brightness turned down, my 3G is dying 50% sooner than before 3.1. Also, the battery meter doesn't seem to be reflecting actual capacity left. One moment it shows 30%, 5 minutes later, the phone is shutdown.
BTW, I live in Tokyo and we DO NOT have Edge. The network service is only 3G.
Oh, and also, the phone gets really hot whenever I do anything with it. Previously, the only time I felt the phone warm or worse was when I was charging it.

I am reading about CoPilot Live North ...
I have used a TomTom for about 3 years but when I went to upgrade the maps it was going to cost me over $100.00 and I was told that the new software would probably not work on my TomTom 910. So I opted to just get a new device or software for my phone. The TomTom software seems unjustifiably expensive for the iPhone. So I am looking at CoPilot Live.
I assume that "Text to Speech" means that it speaks the hiway and street names. It says "Text to Speech voice instructions are optionally available in certain regions", does that mean text to speech does not work all over the US ?
I guess that "optional Live traffic service" means that it is an extra charge ?
Does "CoPilot OnDemand" mean that the application maps are incomplete ?
I would guess that the application stays on all of the time that you are driving. I have a cig-lighter plug and phone cord that will keep the iPhone on charge. I would need some kind of iPhone holder.
I am interested in your comments.

Random shutdowns with iPhone 3G ...
Ever since i upgraded the software on my iPhone 3G (to 3.1), my phone randomly crashes atleast once/day. Anyone else see this problem? I hate to hard reboot the phone every day. It might eventually kill it.

iPhone 3G: Switching from a PC to a ...
Hey guys, switched from pc to mac some months back, but ive kept syncing my iphone on my PC, now i want to sync it with my mac, because im abroad and want to put some new music on it...

after the switch to mac, can i save my contacts in my adress book on my mac book?

Continued sync problems ...
I have had this problem for months now. Randomly, enough that I never know when it will happen, I try to sync my iPhone 3G with my PC and Outlook, and I get the message that my iPhone has been synced with another user account, and would I like to merge, replace, etc. I do NOT have any other user accounts, I have NEVER synced my phone with any other computer. Yes, I have reset sync history and replaced everything on the phone. I have rebooted the phone, turned the computer OFF and turned it back on, I have reloaded iTunes, I have done everything that Apple Support says to do, and STILL it randomly gives me the above message. I can sync the iTunes library with no problem, the apps too. Contacts have not been a problem. Occasionally it will say that there is no associated Notes app on phone, which is pretty funny, since it's a native app now. I am running the latest iTunes software, the latest iPhone software, the only third party app running in Outlook is the Apple add-on.
It is to the point, and has been for months, that I don't dare make an appt on my iPhone as I will most likely have to replace the calendar on the iPhone, so I am forced to only make appts in Outlook. VERY FRUSTRATING!! Does anyone have any solutions?

Mysterious crash ...
I literally JUST got my ihpone 3g yesterday, and it has been working just fine until this morning. After I took a picture of my friend, the iphone inexplicably shut down (this was after it showed the little loading logo in the center of the screen for approximately two minutes).
I have looked on various support threads, read the FAQ and troubleshooting documents, and have tried everything save for connecting it to a charger to bring it back to life (I can't at the moment, as I am at school, but I'll definitely do that when I get home). I've held down the sleep/wake button, the home button, both of those buttons at the same time, you name it.
My friends have tried calling my phone and despite the fact that the screen is completely black, my phone is apparently still on? I don't hear it ring or vibrate but when people call me there's that ringer tone on their end...
Help, please!

It's ridiculous: iPhone 3G with 3.1.2 ...
Common Apple, do you do any quality checks before releasing any software? With former firmwares since V3, the connection dropped once a while, now with 3.1.2 it drops the network connection nearly after every call. **** APPLE, THIS IS A PHONE! If I have to check its condition every time i want to call or try to receive one, the I don't need it! Stop making electronic toys, start producing useful tools again! A phone which can play music but cannot handle phone networks is simply crap! I "use" an iPhone 3G without any simlock or netlock.
I say this as a long time Apple user, but you are disappointing me more and more...

Scrambled playlist after 3.1 upgrade. ...
Hi,
So after reading all of the trouble that some of you guy's are having after 3.1, I thought I'd add my small but annoying gripe, maybe in the hope that the Apple bod who is inevitably payed to read all of these gripes and take notes to report back, does just that.
My gripe is, that the smart playlists that I have on my Mac, aren't downloaded to my iPhone properly, in fact, I have a smart playlist on my Mac called "Top 100 Most Played", and since upgrading to 3.1 (this morning) it's utter garbage, and in no way resembles the content in the list in iTunes, it's the same with al of the Smart Playlists that I had put together, shame as they're the ones I listen to the most.
I've tried all the recommend things to fix it, reset, hard reset, restore from backup, restore to factory settings, deleting all music and adding one playlist at a time, nothing has worked!
I've never had a problem with an Apple update before (user for 6 years), but I feel I must type this one up, as the iPhone is now my daily listen having abandoned the virtues of my old G5 iPod, so come on Apple, sort it out, put the overtime in and get 3.1.1 out sharpish!
In short, Just Fix it!

Is there a way to disable stereo ...
Hi All,
I've been a huge fan of my 3G since purchasing it last September and have adored it even more since buying my 2009 Acura TSX. The car and phone seemed built for eachother and have worked seamlessly together since I bought the car in November. Unfortunately, while I also enjoy many of the OS3 upgrades, the OS has made my in-car experience very challenging.
The TSX has a built-in iPod connector that allows the stereo system to see and control most of the iPod functions (playlists, artists, albums, songs, etc.). The car also supports Hands-free Bluetooth for the phone functions simultaneously. Before the OS3 upgrade, all I had to do was simply plug the iPod connector into the phone, set the stereo to iPod and I was set. Since the OS3 upgrade, it seems that as soon as the phone detects the presence of ANY bluetooth network (presuming my Hands Free), it defaults the audio output to stereo bluetooth rather than the iPod connector. This forces me to have to go into the phone, navigate to the iPod app, select the audio output icon and then select the connector to get the audio to come through the stereo. One day when I own a car stereo that supports stereo bluetooth, I'll be thrilled to know this feature is available, however, presently, I'm dying for the ability to just turn this feature off (like WiFi, except that I need the Hands Free bluetooth capabilities for the phone to remain on). Just tell me how to set the default for audio output to be via the connector as it was before the OS3 upgrade and I'm set.
Also, before OS3, calls would automatically mute the audio coming from the phone and yet this doesn't seem to happen now - or at least not as seamlessly as it did before. I haven't had a lot of examples of this occurrence to confirm the behavior but it's definitely happened at least once (music keeps playing after the call starts) and I presume it's related.
Thanks for any help/guidance you can provide. This is my only real complaint with the phone especially since it represents a loss of convenience and functionality for me.
Mike

Push Notifications and slowness ...
Has anyone been experiencing general slowness on some applications with push notifications enabled? I was complaining to one app support person about how slow their application loaded but found out that if I disabled the push notifications, the app loaded in less than half the time. I couldn't complain much afterward. I thought that one of the great things about push notification was that it wasn't supposed to affect battery life or performance on the phone.

So many Issues, so little time ...
So clearly there's a battery problem with the new firmware. Ever since 3.1.2 I get about 2.5-3.5 hours of life, and thats about 15minutes of actually talk time. It's rediculous.
However, there are 100s of posts and threads about it already, im here for another question.
With all the obvious battery problems how come there hasnt been word from apple? or even a temp update? or anything for that matter? It's been a week since all this got jacked up and still no word?
With the thousands of people working @ apple I assumed it was possible to fix such a drastic problem in a timely fashion, i guess i was wrong. The reason I'm a little irritated is I use my phone for work and school, without it everything goes to sh!t, I don't always have a time and place to sit and charge my phone 3 times a day.
Maybe 3.1.3 soon?

Accessory compatibility? iPod 3rd ...
Does anyone know what the nature of the incompatibility between early iPod/iPhone accessories and the iPhone 3G is? Is there any harm in using universal connector accessories with an item for which it wasn't made?
I recently plugged my iPhone 3G into the dock from my 3rd Generation iPod (through USB, of course). I am immediately shown the message:
"This accessory is not made to work with iPhone
Would you like to turn on Airplane Mode to reduce audio interference? You will not be able to make or receive calls."
I have selected "No" and the phone synced, charged, and updated without a hitch. It seems like data and charging connections are not affected, despite the fact that the dock wasn't designed to work with the phone. Also, the dock doesn't appear to interfere with the phone's ability to make or receive calls (did a few tests there). I'm wondering if there are any potentially negative consequences for using the iPod dock with the iPhone (especially for syncing).

Apple Store broke my phone... ...
and offered me 25% off a replacement phone because my iPhone is out-of-warranty. (by 2-months, btw)
Took it in to see if they could tell me what was wrong. It was acting like the sleep/wake button was stuck or constantly being pushed. The phone worked fine when it was plugged in.
Not only could they not tell me what was wrong, but they;
1) BROKE OFF my vibration/mute button
2) Added lint under my screen
3) Completely rendered my iPhone unusable since it no longer functions even when plugged in.
Yes, my iPhone is out-of-warranty. No, it's not right that my phone is in worse shape than it was than when i brought it in. And while $50 off a replacement phone might sound like a decent gesture, i'd be able to get a replacement 16G 3GS model for $199 in December.
Has anyone dealt had this kind of experience with the Apple Store? Any suggestions on how to handle this?

iPhone firmware update 3.1.2 is out! ...
Whew relief at last! but 'your mileage may vary'. I am very curious how well it's working. I really hope 'comatose' is a word we can quickly forget.
I was at 3.1 last night and had hopefully my last coma ever. I put on 3.1.2 and it went very smoothly other than for some reason some of my apps lost their data. (i lost hundreds of entries from my 'Lose-it' weight management program (AWESOME by the way; down almost 20# since July).
Since putting on 3.1.2, however, phone not quite as responsive as yesterday on 3.1 (something i can deal with if it never 'goes coma' again), but once in a while it's a pretty long pause, like a 4 sec. pause in the middle of a tapping a word; again if it's a trade-off to have the phone work 100% of the time i can cope with that.
Anybody that does try the upgrade and has a problem, please go through the normal steps of putting on a clean install before 'going ballistic'. Basically, i would recommend doing a backup, putting the phone into DFU BEFORE the first attempt of 3.1.2 (which i didn't do... could be related to the 'stutters' i'm getting right now).
I recommend this method:
1. backup your phone manually (in case it doesn't ask) -

I was at 3.1 last night and had hopefully my last coma ever. I put on 3.1.2 and it went very smoothly other than for some reason some of my apps lost their data. (i lost hundreds of entries from my 'Lose-it' weight management program (AWESOME by the way; down almost 20# since July).

Replaced old wifi router with Airport ...
My wife has a iPhone 3G/16 GB running 3.1.2. Never jailbroken, but lots of apps on it. I had been using a Netgear WGR614 v5 802.11g router and everything worked flawlessly. I ran an open network with no security at all (no encryption or MAC filter). Yesterday, I replaced the Netgear with a brand-new Airport Extreme. I changed the ID, added WPA security to the primary network, and added a guest network. I am able to connect to either of the networks with my MacBook (late '08 unibody), a Palm Pre, and a Lenovo X60 Tablet.
Her iPhone detects both the regular network and the guest network, but it refuses to connect to either of them and gives the message "Unable to join the network

WiFi Connection issues ...
Hi,
I have the Iphone 3G and its been great for the past 12 months since I bought it. However, it no longer finds any WiFi networks.
My router is fine, because my girlfriends Iphone (same model) finds the wireless and it works perfectly.
I have:
reset network settings - no change
reset all settings - no change
restored iphone - no change
usually in my building it picks up about 6 networks but it no longer finds any. The phone has the wireless switched on and I havent dropped it or anything so its a bit strange that I am having this issue.
If anyone has had this issue or can help that would be great!
Thanks,
B

Headphone remote control not working ...
For the past week or so I noticed that my remote control (clicking the microphone) was not working. I use this once in a blue moon, so I had no idea of what it could be and my phone has suffered no trauma recently. (Other than an uneventful upgrade to 2.2.1!)
So having the opportunity, I made an appointment to see a Genius in the London Regent Street store today. After stating that they would be happy to replace components (headphones, iPhone) the Genius first poked the socket with a bent paper clip and pulled out paper or fluff. After that it worked perfectly! He told me that one can do this at home but obviously with care, and not to stab blindly!
I'm impressed, and not having found any references to the problem when I searched for it I thought I would offer this experience. Naturally I have to warn that you would do such a thing at your own risk, it was not formally endorsed by Apple as a solution, and your mileage may vary!

Searchin and searching over and over ...
Hi,
My iPhone as the 3.0 OS version.
The operator indicator doesn't show the bars but only the "searching" message.
If I turn on the 3G mode, than after a few minutes It swaps to the 3G mode and It gains the bars at operator indicator.
I think this is a hardware problem, but I would like to know if anyone have the same problem and if he/she found the solution.
Thanks,
Nuno

Significant issues with 3.1.2 - I ...
Updated to 3.1.2 earlier this week - and I suddenly have all sorts of issues.
1) battery drain is significant - my phone dies at night if not left in the cradle (this never happened before). I need to charge the phone every few hours now, on average, 2x per day - wow, again, this never happened before.
2) The phone is unbelievably S...L...O...W... it runs as fast now as molasses. Examples: a) To accept a phone call, it takes 2 - 4 seconds before the phone responds to Accept (if I do not pick up on the first ring and accept, I cannot answer in time), b) change from phone to mail, response time is between 5 to 10 seconds (before, there was no hesitation) c) search, now takes sometimes over 25 seconds!!! - previously, the maximum time was about 3-5 seconds. d) typing - how about 5 seconds per letter - totally frustrating? e) Map - 5 to 10 minutes to locate AND the phone freezes - so you cannot answer a call or change applications. Its not necessarily the time that bothers me, its the complete locking of the phone. f) type in my password to access the phone, hesitation of 3 to 6 seconds, and typing takes about 1 second per numeral for the passcode. This was never a problem before.
Anyways, you get the idea, everything is slow.
My phone has always been very reliable - this is the first time that I have had any issues. No recent updates to applications that I sometimes use, like FRING or Truphone. Weather eye now takes about 20 - 45 seconds to load, either through the 3GS network or on my office WiFi. Previously, it would take between 5 to 10 seconds.
Anyone else having these issues? Suggestions? Time to roll back perhaps?
Regards to everyone,
Stu
