3G S-L-O-W after update to iOS4.0.1

My phone ***** after going to iOS4. It is slow, lags and apps crash a lot. I called tech support and they claim that there are no reported issues, like the ones I have....
I find this very hard to believe. I want to but the new pone, but I don't want to be pushed into it.
Jobs loves loves his customers, so long as they but the new iPhone!!!

Not true even if you stated it in a "sentence" that made sense. Not any more true if you post it multiple times in different threads. Complete fabrication. Hint: if you're going to post something many times, try a grammar corrector.

My apps won't load after updating to iOS4.3.2. What to do?

My apps won't load after updating to iOS4.3.2. What to do?

Yes, I tried that (thanks for the suggestion, though!). In my music app, when I click on certain songs, the screen moves to try to start the song, but then it bounces back to the menu screen without playing the song. On many albums, when I click on the first song, a song about halfway through the album will start to play rather than that first song. My other apps seems to be fixed, but not the music function.

Has anyone suffered failure of video after updating to ios4.3.3

After updating the ios4.3.3 (8J3) cannot run movies or slideshow movies. Just get the message No Videos You can download videos from iTunes.
How do I get back to ios4.3.2?

I don't fully understand what's involved but I've found that a System Reset cures many ills. It's easy, quick, harmless and it's not part of a Restore:
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.
A System Reset does not remove any apps, music, movies, etc. nor does it cause any settings to revert back to default.
Also, you might wish to download the iPad-2 User Guide. Pay special attention to page 162. Note that this Guide also applies to the iPad-1 with IOS 4.3 except for those functions that are not supported by the hardware.

Finally, the User Guide can be downloaded at no charge via iBooks and a less comprehensive version of the Guide is included as a Safari bookmark.

After updating my ios4 to ios 6.1, it became very slow. Browsing my music takes forever. How do i fix it to make it fast again without losing my music files?

After updating my ipod touch 4th gen ios 4.1 to ios 6.1.6, browsing my music files became super slow..I lost all my music files and was even forced to download new ones..But im not happy with maneuvering my music files after the update as it takes really slow to move from one playlist to another..I wish I could downgrade it to my original ios 4 as it was much faster then in maneuvering music files. Or is there a way for me to make it faster???Im only using my ipod touch 4th gen for listening to my music files and nothing more. I also noticed that whenever I dock my ipod touch to my Bose sound Dock, the remote control only function on its volume controls but not the skip buttons. i sent my Bose dock to Bose service center and told me that my Bose dock system is working fine but not my Ipod touch 4th gen.. Pls help me...

- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync/delete all music and resync
To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
Also, go to Bose's support site, they may have suggestions for that problem

IPhone 3G performance degrades after update to iOS4

Another log on the fire - for the first time since I bought my iPhone 3G I am unhappy with it. Not only did the update to iOS4 significantly degrade the performance/responsiveness of my iPhone, but I also have no backup to revert back to. The update process within iTunes performed a backup of my phone before the iOS4 update, and after the update was completed (4-6 hours later) the backup of 3.1.3 was gone.

I have to agree with pego19.
I UNFORTUNATE was foolish enough to install iOS 4 on my iPhone 3G. Now I feel it is totally unusable due to slowness and crashing. I've actually had mail and SMS apps crash on me, as well as the whole phone to freeze forcing me to reset it. Something I cannot recall ever doing in the the 20 months of owning it.
I am desperately trying to search ways to return to iOS 3, or preferrably iOS 2 (that it came with), as that was FAST. If that is not possible, I will have just forget about the iPhone and look for an alternative. I'm definately not going to buy a new iPhone, as this is more likely to happen again with it.
What I don't undestand why I cannot just put the original iOS back to the phone that it came out with. Just as I can always restore any Mac to the original condition that it came in?
And yes, my iPhone has never been jailbroken. It has always been unlocked by Apple since new (bought it while living in Brussels), so I have never needed to bother tinkering with it.

After update to IOS4.2.1 my 3Gs battery % keep dropping

after update to IOS 4.2.1, my iphone 3Gs battery % just keep dropping, without using whole night, the battery % drop from 100% to 75%. I never meet this problem when i was using IOS 4.1, Anyone know whats the problem?

I've noticed similar problem recently, not 100% sure if it was after updating to iOS 4.2 but I would go from 100% charged before I sleep to 80% when I wake up 5-6 hrs later.
I've noticed when I look up the usage in settings, the usage time is exactly the same as the standby time, which I can't seem to explain even though I'm not even doing anything with it.
It's got to the point where I have to charge it daily, when before it could've lasted 2-3 days if I didn't use it.
PS. I do not use it for any email/web surfing. It is primarily for the iPod and maybe 5 mins of Angry Birds =\

After updating to ios 4.2.1 my iphone volume has lowered to much extent.

After update to iOS4 my iPhone 3Gs doesn't sync ringtones anymore

After updating my iPhone 3Gs to iOS4, I don't see my synchronized ringtones on my iPhone. If I couple my iPhone to iTunes, I can see the ringtones in the iPhone. But if I go to the sound settings of the iPhone, I don't see the ringtones at all.
Can someone help me

I think I have the solution. I crfeated new ringtones yesterdya by converting them to aac files, then changing the extension to .m4r and dragging them to itunes. I also had a missing icon next to the custom ringtones. The only ringtones that would sync to my iphone are the 2 that I purchased. I tried to play the customer ringtones and windows told me they cannot be played because the original file cannot be located, would you like to locate it? I clicked yes and searched my desktop. I had saved all the ringtones to a file on my desktop so i knew easily where to find them. I clicked the file for the ringtone I had tried to play, clicked on open and it began playing. the missing icon was now gone in itunes. Windows then asked if I wanted it to search the same location for other missing files. I clicked yes and all of my newly made ringtones now will play. I re-synced my phone and they now appear in my ringtones on my iphone. hope this works for you.

Has your iPhone been jail broken or otherwise hacked?

Iphone 3gs not working properly after update to ios4

I updated my 3gs to ios4 and have had nothing but problems since doing so. My battery is draining faster than ever, I have had problems syncing with the exchange server at work which has always worked perfectly before, my reception is horrible in places where it used to be just fine, such as my house. I am constantly dropping calls in my house where I know my phone worked just fine before. I know Apple says their formula for figuring signal strength is inaccurate and has been for years, but that really has nothing do to with the fact that my phone used to work at my house and now it doesn't. Regardless of what the signal shows, I know I used to talk on my phone at my house and now it's a real pain in the a** to try to get through a conversation. Also many of my apps such as weather and stock apps will not update sometimes for a couple of days, no matter where I am or what the signal strength says. Has anyone else had a combination of these problems and if so any luck fixing any of them?
Thanks

Apple release an article after iOS4 came out about downloading a new exchange file
Seen here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3398
I would start by doing this fix and see if that helps out any of your issues.
I would suggest to sync everything and then back it up, restore your device to 'new', download this new exchange fix and then either restore your phone or better, re-sync you phone.
Good Luck

After update to iOS4, all apps in 3G exit immediately after launch.

I updated my iPhone 3G to iOS4, and after that all apps cannot run. apps exit immediately whey I run it.
Accept the default apps that come with iPhone (e.g. calender, clock, claculator, contact, ect).
What should I do to resolve this problem?

I think I have the solution. I crfeated new ringtones yesterdya by converting them to aac files, then changing the extension to .m4r and dragging them to itunes. I also had a missing icon next to the custom ringtones. The only ringtones that would sync to my iphone are the 2 that I purchased.

After updating to iOS4.3.5 App Store crashes on launch...

I recently restored my iPhone 4 to iOS 4.3.5 after previously running 4.3.3 jailbroken with jailbreakme.com.
After the restore I am no longer able to use the App Store... It just crashes on launch.
I have restored several times... I have reset network settings... I have hard reset using the power button and home button...
I really don't want to have to restore as a new iPhone as I have lots of messages with information that I need.
Could it be due to the new 90 day policy, restricting additional devices?
Can anyone help, bare some light on the situation or just explain why this is happening??
If you have a similar problem please join this thread and state your situation too so you can be linked in to any outcome.
Thank you.

Okay... I have managed to fix my problem.
I restored by putting my iPhone 4 into DFU mode first.
1.Turn iPhone off using the power button
2. Plug iPhone into computer
3. Press and hold power, and home button together for 10 seconds
4. Release power button, but continue to hold home button until iphone is recognised by iTunes
Remember to back up your iPhone before doing this!!!
Restore and update iPhone....
One problem I had after doing this is that the Mail icon was nowhere to be seen...
If this is the case for you go to...
Settings>General>Restrictions>Enable Restrictions>Enter passcode (twice)> Then Disable Restrictions
This didn't actually work at first, so I played around with the settings in Restrictions, After turning everything off and then back on again, I disabled restrictions and low and behold, mail was back.
I hope this helps you if you've also been having difficulties.

Lost all my paid apps after updating to iOS4! Apps not in backup!!!

I just updated my iPod touch (3 gen) from some OS 3.xxx to iOS4. After 1-2 hours, I got an error message saying that the backup failed. I looked on my iPod touch and saw that all of my apps were deleted except 4 random ones. Thinking that my apps were safe in my backup, I checked in iTunes. My free apps were still there but my 2 paid apps were gone! They were Doodle Jump and Ninja Fruit. Although it's only $2 dollars - I lost my money! Will Apple give my 2 paid apps or money back? I had all my updates done so my apps were iOS4 OK.
One little note. My iPod touch was jailbroken which makes me worried. All I got from Cydia was Pokemon and Themes. Did this contribute to the problem? Yet, a lot of people jailbreak and don't have a problem. But, I am certain that I paid for those 2 apps. I even got physical invoices in the mail.

"What if all my data is actually lost?"
What data? Your contacts, calendars, etc should be synced to your computer, you can just sync it right back.
" What if Apple bills me again?"
For the apps? I gave you a link to Apple's instructions on how to download apps again for free. Follow them.
" I'm afraid to click "OK". =("
Don't know how to help you there.
"I also don't have any music either. "
Your music should be on your computer as well ( in itunes). That is how you got on the ipod in the first place, is it not? Just sync it back to the ipod
" Is the iOS4 update supposed to restore your ipod to initial settings?"
It does not normally do that ( at least in my experience), but you should always make sure that everything is copied to your computer and backed up before you install an update or do a restore.

Wifi issues after update to ios4

Hi all,
Since updating to os4, I've been having problems with the wifi on my iphone.
If will connect to my home network fine, but it refuses to use the wifi connection. Checking everything in settings, it all seems fine, it says connected with good strength etc.
But it just doesnt use wifi.
Oddly, the only time the wifi symbol comes up, is in call, which im finding a bit odd. But as soon as I end the call, the wifi symbol disapears and goes back to gprs.
I've rebooted the phone several times, got it to forget wireless networks and set it all up again, reset the network setting, and recently restored and update to os 4.0.2 with no luck.
Anyone got any ideas?

Any problems connecting to any other wi-fi network?
If the same with any other wi-fi network and no change after resetting network settings on your iPhone and after restoring your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup, more than likely your iPhone has a hardware problem.
You can contact AppleCare or make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.

Unable to use Bluetooth after updated to iOS4.2

I've updated my iphone4 to iOS4.2 however since then my bluetooth function is not available. Normally you can turn it on or off but I am unable to do this at all (General > Bluetooth). Has Apple changed this setup of how this works in OS4.2?

Restarted the device and it appears to be working again.
