A few iPhone questions

I'm trying to decide if the iPhone is better than my 4.5 year old Sony Ericsson s710a. I know that sounds weird, but I really love my phone. I'm also not a big Apple fan, so getting this phone would be a big leap for me.
My current phone has a some basic camera features like white balance, night mode, B&W, etc. Obviously they can't add a light like mine has, but do you think some of these other features could be added in a future firmware update?
Also can the camera record video or just stills?
Alarm clock... I use my phone as an alarm clock and can set it to go off on just certain days of the week. Does the iPhone have something like this?
I'm sure Apple would never allow users to use an MP3 as a ring (otherwise why would anyone spend a fortune to buy one?), so I guess I'd just have to give up the Legend of Zelda ring I made.
PC Connecting... I don't like iTunes, I've seen a plugin for WMP11 for syncing an iPod, would something like that also work for the iPhone?
WIFI versus Edge... Is there a way to disable Edge so that it will only give me 'net access when I'm near wifi? Cellphone bills are already too expensive without accidentally getting charged a fortune for checking my email.
Are there any third parties offering a decent remote for the headphones? I'm thinking of something like the PSP's inline remote that has full Play/pause, skip forward/back, stop, and mute.
That's all I can think of at the moment. The price seems a bit much, but $400 is actually what I paid for my current phone over 4 years ago, so I guess it's not too bad and for once the high price of an Apple product seems worth it.
I know most of you are cuckoo for Apple puffs but remember not everyone is, for example I asked my friend the other day what he thought of the iPhone and he said "it looks pretty cool... but it's an Apple product."

I doubt that this can be accomplished through firmware updates to the current iteration of the iPhone.

This is a still camera.

Yes

You are correct about the use of MP3. Who knows what the future will bring.
PC Connecting... I don't like iTunes, I've seen a plugin for WMP11 for syncing an iPod, would something like that also work for the iPhone?
You need iTunes for the iPhone.
WIFI versus Edge... Is there a way to disable Edge so that it will only give me 'net access when I'm near wifi? Cellphone bills are already too expensive without accidentally getting charged a fortune for checking my email.
You cannot disable the Edge network but you do not get charged for checking your mail as long as it is within the limits of your calling plan. You can use wi-fi anytime you are in the vicinity of a wi-fi network.
Are there any third parties offering a decent remote for the headphones? I'm thinking of something like the PSP's inline remote that has full Play/pause, skip forward/back, stop, and mute.
Not up on headphone technology but by the term remote are you talking about Bluetooth for playing music. If that is what you are asking, there is no set available at this time.
That's all I can think of at the moment. The price seems a bit much, but $400 is actually what I paid for my current phone over 4 years ago, so I guess it's not too bad and for once the high price of an Apple product seems worth it.

  • A Few iPhone Questions I Can't Find Answers to...

    Hi. I'm super interested in getting the iPhone. Here are some questions I'd love to get answered in order to get closer to obtaining the iPhone:
    1. How much are the initial costs, mainly concerned about the activation fee? - After reading the fine print I see $36, but is this correct?
    2. Can I see all my ATT Minutes & Text Usages on iTunes so I can be up to date on how close I am to going over?
    3. With Rollover, can my minutes just accumulate over and over? I believe I heard something about rollover minutes capping up to my monthly minutes, say 900.
    (I'm interested in the $79.99 /month plan)
    4. Unlimited Mobile to Mobile is the whole ATT network, correct?
    5. Finally, if you have an iPhone, how's the phone bill? :]
    6. Finally x2, are you happy/satisfied with the iPhone, why?
    Thanks alot, these answers will definately influence my decision on getting an iPhone. Thanks.

    1. How much are the initial costs, mainly concerned about the activation fee? - After reading the fine print I see $36, but is this correct?
    This sounds correct but whatever is provided at AT&T's website.
    2. Can I see all my ATT Minutes & Text Usages on iTunes so I can be up to date on how close I am to going over?
    Not with iTunes but the iPhone includes the following options under the AT&T Services selection:
    Check Bill Balance
    Directory Assistance
    Pay My Bill
    View My Minutes
    Voice Connect (which requires an additional fee)
    AT&T MyAccount - which takes you to AT&T's website with Safari on the iPhone to log in to your account which includes all this detailed information.
    3. With Rollover, can my minutes just accumulate over and over? I believe I heard something about rollover minutes capping up to my monthly minutes, say 900.
    The cap per month is your anytime minutes package. If you choose the 450 anytime minutes plan and don't use any of your anytime or billable minutes, 450 anytime minutes will rollover to the next month giving you 900 anytime minutes the next month which continues to accumulate for the anytime minutes not used each month. There is a 12 month limit so if I have 100 anytime rollover minutes this month which is not used by December next year, these rollover minutes are lost.
    4. Unlimited Mobile to Mobile is the whole ATT network, correct?
    Correct - you have unlimited mobile to mobile minutes at any time of the day with fellow AT&T subscribers. These minutes are free and do not count against your chosen anytime minutes plan.
    5. Finally, if you have an iPhone, how's the phone bill? :]
    Not sure what type of answer you are looking for with this question.
    6. Finally x2, are you happy/satisfied with the iPhone, why?
    I'm very happy and satisfied. This is the first phone I've used that syncs with my Mac's Address Book contacts and iCal calendar events without needing to jump through hoops with work arounds that didn't work completely or reliably. It is a phone, an iPod and an internet device. As long as you have cell phone reception, you have an always on internet access for email account access and web browsing. In the past when I traveled, I carried my PowerBook, my iPod and my cell phone. Unless I need to do work, I now carry my iPhone which combines these three and it fits in my shirt pocket.
    I also use my cell phone in place of a landline so it has been great for me. I don't go anywhere without it and I also use the iPhone's alarm feature for my alarm clock.

  • A few simple questions from a new Iphone user

    Hi a few simple questions, just got an iphone 2g - 2nd hand so not really sure what to expect. Anyway I guess my first question is about mine sometimes being a little slow - when I look at contacts and sometimes when sending a txt it slows down/freezes a little - normal?
    Secondly Edge - I havent used it much but when I have its been painfully slow, is this normal - is it always really slow - cause I had read despite not being 3g Edge was actually pretty fast - what exactly is data roaming by the way? I mean I have been switched off as basically I dont wanna use the internet till next month when they change my contract to one I get unlimited access on - is that right?
    Im having a problems syncing videos to it - it just wont sync some but will others and Im not sure why - theyre same file type and they used to sync to my ipod touch but now they wont for some reason
    Cheers

    I have the origina iPhone.
    Downloaded 2.0, synced phone with everything UNchecked. Installed 2.0. Synced with all the options checked to reload my data. The iPhone has been great. Noticed a little lag when I opened contacts. Installed the new upgrade, and everything is back, no lag.
    Edge is Edge and nothing more. It is slow compared to a strong 3g signal. But is liveable most of the time. Heavy traffic can slow it down to barely usable.
    My four wheel drive club has a web site with a large photo section. I was standing out in the middle of parking lot in San Jose, Ca and showing a friend some photos. It opens up a page of small picts to choose from. Select a print and it enlarges, He was amazed at how fast they appeard. Especially given the quantity of photos.

  • A few "technical" iPhone questions

    Believe it or not, I'm not going to complain about the price drop!
    Instead, I've owned my iPhone for a couple of days now, and have a few burning questions:
    1) Does the iPhone have the ability to keep nagging me that I missed a call?
    2) Many times, when I make or receive a call, either I cannot hear the other end, or the other end cannot hear me. It's like mute is on, but it isn't. Has anyone else had this problem? (It not just between iPhones, either, it's happened with me calling a Verizon number).
    3) Is there any way to have the contacts screen display the records my the way Outlook says to display (file as) a contact? If I have Jim Jones at Acme Computer, I'd like the contact on the iPhone to be under Acme Computer, not Jim Jones. If I have 10 people at Acme Computer in my contacts, doesn't it make sense to have them grouped together instead of spread all over the alphabet?
    4) Is there any way to put some of the "nested" funtions on the main iPhone page? In other words, under PHONE, there is RECENT and VOICEMAIL. Is there a way to put those as icon on the main icon menu screen instead of having to touch, touch, touch to get to them? It sure would be nice, while driving, to just have to touch one button to get to where I want instead of having to take my eyes off the road to navigate a bunch of screens...
    Thanks for your input.

    No. Not at this time. I haven't had a phone that does though.

    During the two months plus I've had it, this has happened a few times. I just call them back and it's fine. This did happen occasionally with my old phone as well.
    3) Is there any way to have the contacts screen display the records my the way Outlook says to display (file as) a contact?

If I have 10 people at Acme Computer in my contacts, doesn't it make sense to have them grouped together instead of spread all over the alphabet?
    I use Apple Address Book which has a check box to designate the contact as a business instead of an individual. The listing is then alphabetized by the business name instead. Is there anything in Outlook to do this same thing? I'm not sure what would happen with more than one listing from the same business. One way I've gotten around it in Address Book is to add multiple phone numbers under the business (or household for friends/families with more than one phone number) and then create a custom phone type for each person (ie. Jim Jones cell, Jim Jones home, etc.). One other thing to keep in mind is to use Groups. If you find that your contact list is getting too crowded, create some groups in Outlook and then sync the groups to your iPhone. You could create a group that had all your contacts from "Acme Computer".
    4) Is there any way to put some of the "nested" funtions on the main iPhone page? In other words, under PHONE, there is RECENT and VOICEMAIL.

    So far the only keys that you can change are in the iPod portion. Give it a few more days. Navigating the screens will become second nature. I have no trouble in the car.
    Good luck and enjoy your new iPhone!

  • Before upgrading iPhone to 3.0 beta a few basic questions!

    We have a few apps up in the store, and I want to upgrade them, so I suppose I need to upgrade my iPhone now to the beta 3.0 firmware.
    Before doing so, I'd like to ask those who have gone before me a few simple questions.
    (1) I don't have anything on my iPhone that is earth-shatteringly important. But if I need to, can I restore to OS 2 and get my old email settings and apps back?
    (2) What does updating to the beta 3.0 firmware really mean? Will I get to preview all the core OS 3.0 apps, including the search features, new Camera, Mail and Safari apps, etc.? If so, that sounds like fun.
    (3) What happens when I synch with iTunes while the beta 3.0 firmware is installed? Will normal synch still work?
    Thanks for any tips or advice on this. I can't afford to get another iPhone device just to maintain my current apps.

    I recommend that you check manage subnet and vlan mapping at the CAS the problem could be located at that level.

  • A few quick questions about publishing for iPhone/Android

    I'm currently developing an iPhone/Android game in CS5 and I just have a few quick questions.  If anyone can answer even one or two I'd really appreciate it
    1- I'm developing using a 320 x 480 resolution for the iphone.  When I tested it, the status bar on the top of the screen makes the edges disappear.  How should I turn off the status bar?  And if I can't what resolution should I use?
    2- The performance is a little slow, and the game isn't very intense at all.  What's a good way to improve performance?
    3- For Android, what should I do for the resolution?  Is there a standard resolution or do I have to have multiple resolutions for multiple devices?
    4- Finally, is it worth getting the free trial of CS5.5 before I publish?  Is there anything in there that will be a huge improvement over CS5?
    All help is appreciated

    1. Publish in fullscreen
    2. Use bitmaps, cache all bitmaps, use minimized looping structure etc.
        http://www.yeahbutisitflash.com/?p=986
    3. Android: 480 * 800
    4. Not that much, but you have GUI updates and have a GUI publishing screen for packager for iphone too.

  • A few various questions

    Can anyone help me with a few various questions about how to do certain things on the iPhone? Here's my questions:
    - Is there a way to turn off predictive text? I'd like to enter in a phone extension for a contact. I create a new field for the extension number. Then enter in "EXT" but it comes out to "ECT". Also, is there a way to delete that field? Is there a better way to do extensions?
    - How do I hide the keyboard when there isn't an option to hide it? This happens in the Mail settings area.
    - Is there a way to keep the keyboard in all caps just for a single word rather than having to switch to caps for each letter?
    - When I bookmark a website, sometimes the bookmark title is long so I can't see it all. I can click into the field but that puts the cursor at the end of the text string. Is there a way to then scroll left and see all of the words?
    Thanks,
    Brett

    Ok this should be a long one so dig in haha. Ill answer them in the order you asked.
    No, there is no way as of right now to turn off the predictive text feature. You must make sure to cancel the blue suggested word before hitting the space bar.
    There isnt an option to hide the keyboard in any of the applications on iPhone. Im not quite sure what you mean on this one either.
    There is a way to use all caps letters if you have enabled caps lock in the keyboard settings menu and then double tap the icon when typing. It will turn blue when it has been done correctly.
    If you tap and hold your finger on a piece of text, it will pop up a little magnifying glass which can be used to scroll left and right. Its a bit tricky to find the right place on the screen that will make it move though. You will get the hang of it eventually.
    Hope this helps. Enjoy your iPhone!!

  • Some General iPhone Questions

    As I consider buying an iPhone, I have a few general questions.
    1. What are some possible improvements that can be done to the iPhone by Apple via software updates? When do you think we will see these updates?
    2. What are some of the possible improvements that can only come from purchasing a second generation iPhone?
    3. I want to make this my ONLY phone and ditch a land line for the first time. Is the clarity any better than your average cell phone?
    4. I'm not hard of hearing, but some reports have said that the volume is low (for phone conversations) and difficult to hear when used as a traditional phone without headphones. Are there settings on the phone to raise the volume? Can this be a software update from Apple if this is indeed a problem?
    5. This would be my first time switching carriers. If I want to keep my current number (from Verizon) would I cancel my service there first or would registering the iPhone via iTunes do that for me?

    As I consider buying an iPhone, I have a few general
    questions.
    1. What are some possible improvements that can be
    done to the iPhone by Apple via software updates?
    When do you think we will see these updates?
    Since there have not yet been any updates, no one knows for sure. But any improvements in the apps and widgets would definitely be one possibility; also firmware upgrades
    2. What are some of the possible improvements that
    can only come from purchasing a second generation
    iPhone?
    Everything can be improved on an updated phone, particularly implementation of 3G.
    3. I want to make this my ONLY phone and ditch a land
    line for the first time. Is the clarity any better
    than your average cell phone?
    This is very subjective! I find it to be no worse nor no better then most phones I have owned.
    4. \Are there settings on the
    phone to raise the volume?
    Yes
    Can this be a software
    update from Apple if this is indeed a problem?
    Unknown, but should be possible.
    5. This would be my first time switching carriers.
    If I want to keep my current number (from Verizon)
    would I cancel my service there first or would
    registering the iPhone via iTunes do that for me?
    If you cancel service with Verizon first - you will LOSE that number!
    I do not believe registering the old number with AT&T will automatically cancel your service although AT&T MAY do this.
    It would be best to talk to AT&T as to the proper method prior to or at time of purchase.

  • Few problems/questions! (cover flow, album art...etc)

    Ok I finally added my songs to my new IPOD (replaced my old one) and this is my first Ipod with video, color...etc. Its the IPOD Classic 80 GIG.
    Well I am having a few problems/questions:
    ---Why when I hit "Get album art" does it ONLY get art for my videos? It doesn't get any for all 1,500+ songs! Is it because they aren't downloaded from Itunes? If so then why does it do it for the movies then? They aren't from ITunes either!
    ---With Cover Flow I updated the Album Art myself and have about 700 songs with art now. But I have two problems.
    1. It won't display all 700 songs under Cover Flow!
    2. It won't show them in order by song name! Can I change that?!? If not then how is it showing them by? What do I need to change?
    ---Are there any other video types supported besides that on Mpeg4 and that other weird type? If not why not? Its a pain to have to convert everything. Its almost not worth having this video IPOD if you have to go through sop much effort just to watch 1 stupid video. I mean I spent more money on extra programs now for music and videos then I did on the IPOD almost.
    ---Is there any way to transfer your music from one IPOD to another? I know some people say you can't but why? What about people like me who have music ripped from our own cds and NOTHING from ITunes? Its a REAL pain having to rerip all the cds, put them back on, rename all the songs, fix all the info...etc. Its taken me 4 days now. Apple needs to think about a "IPOD TO IPOD" music transfer kinda program.
    ---How do you get pics on the IPOD without having to keep them on your PC? I notice it has to SYNC them every time I have it plugged into the PC! But if I tell it NOT to sync pics anymore then they won't stay on the IPOD if turn that option off and unplug the IPOD. Theres got to be another way to add them.

    Cover flow on the ipod can only be done (as far as I know) on Album by Artist Name. On iTunes you can change it around

  • IPhone question:  Im trying to update applications on my iphone.  When I do it I'm as for password from a different Apple ID from what I have in Itunes.  How do I change so that both are the same?

    IPhone question:  Im trying to update applications on my iphone.  When I do it I'm as for password from a different Apple ID from what I have in Itunes.  How do I change so that both are the same?

    All apps are tied to the apple id that it was used to purchase or download the app.
    did you use a different id to buy the app?
    you can change id, settings - appstore - apple id - log out and log in with correct id.

  • Few fundamental Question- Project IMG and BBPs

    Dear All
    I have few basic question and will appreciate answers ,. points will be awarded as well.
    1. Is there any difference between Enterprise IMG and Project IMG ( or is there any thing such as Enterprise IMG exists in Solman).
    2. Can scope of project IMG be changed once it has been creted and saved. ( if yes then Steps plz)
    3.How to create BBP nodes in Solar02 based on Project IMG.
    Regards

    Hi Nayab,
    1. In simple terms, Project IMG is a sub-set of Enterprise IMG, based on what you scope in. It can also be a mirror image of Enterprise IMG (meaning - all entries can be included in Project IMG). If you go to SPRO transaction in the given satellite system (R/3, CRM ...), you'll find different icons in front of each IMG node, under Project IMG - that is to let you 'document' your activities. Enterprise IMG is the core or reference IMG that SAP provides out of the box.
    2. Yes. it can be changed. But, I am unable to list steps here
    3. By BBP nodes in SOLAR02, what did you mean ? I have heard the term BPP (Business Process Procedure) or BB (Business Blueprint). Can you elaborate please.
    Also, the whole topic of Project IMG Vs. Enterprise IMG is about the satellite system involved  and not on SolMan's own configuration.
    Regards,
    Srini

    NetStream.send() should usually be faster than NetGroup.post(), especially when using 1:1 NetStreams (vs Group NetStreams).
    when groups are large, there's no passive way to tell when members join or leave.  however, for small groups (less than about 15 members), they will be "fully meshed", meaning every member has a direct connection to every other member.  when that's the case, you can see the NetGroup.Neighbor.Connect/Disconnect events on a NetGroup.  to receive those, you must create a NetGroup with the same groupspec as your NetStream and listen for NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS events.
    your function "msg" must be a method on the subscribing NetStream's "client" object to receive NetStream.send()s from the publisher.
    this is all generic ActionScript stuff.  i don't know how to use Flash CS5 but this stuff should all be the same in Flash and Flash Builder.

  • Few basic questions about database administration

    Hello,
    I have a few basic questions about database administration.
    1. I switched one of my oracle instances to archivelog mode. I just cannot locate the archive log files on my windows system. The %ora_home%/ora92/database/archive directory is desperately empty...
    2.What is the tools01.dbf datafile used for?
    3.What is the undotbso1.dbf datafile used for?
    Thanks in advance,
    Julien.

    1. The archive log location needs to be specified in your init.ora file. By default, Oracle will place the archive files in either ORACLE_HOME/dbs or ORACLE_HOME/database.
    2. The tools01.dbf file belongs to the tools tablespace which should be set as the default tablespace for system. It primary purpose is to hold Oracle Forms and Reports database objects, however, it should also be used for holding other non sys database objects such as the perfstat (statspack) or other third party database schemas e.g. quests sqllab.
    3. undotbs01.dbf file belongs to the undo tablespace.

  • Vibe Z2 Pro - Few newby questions

    Hello, as a newby, I have a few simple questions about Z2 Pro and Vibe UI:
    (a) the main issue I have with Vibe UI on this phone is that the 4-apps-per-row look very huge, can you cange it to 5 apps per row with some settings? that would be really useful, as most other big phones are 5 apps per row.
    (b) can I make a guest mode? I think I saw with some other phones, that you can make a guest mode, so that your little cousens don't see all your apps that they don't need to see. I know there is secure mode but that is sothing else.
    (c) can you use Z2 Pro to make the payments with the phone? I know it has the NTF, but don't you need a finger print scanner for that?
    (d) in the camera settings, when I tested the phone, I could not choose 1:1 for the front camera, only for the selfie camera? Is that really so? I would not see why not.
    (e) in the camera settings, I can choose between 3:4 and 16:9 but I somehow could not find the settings for image resolution. what do I do if I want low resolution photos or very high resolutio photos?
    (f) I assume, you can't charge the phone wirelessly, that would be too much to ask for
    Thanks guys.

    Hi, ileyb
    Unfortunately I don't know, what is the "Security Zone" & will be very grateful if you explain a bit about this feature or provide an appropriate link.
    In order to switch to "stock android", you have to do the next:
    1) Go to Settings > About phone > Version information, tap 7 times on "Software version number". This will unlock "Developer options" settings section.
    2) Go to Settings > Developer options > Switch System UI Style and enjoy,

    How can i call variables from another classes: if i have one class that does one thing and stores the result in a variable, how can i use that variable from a different class?
    How can i call the input window to enter the value for variable? I've tried with importing "io.inputstream" library, and used the "extend" thing, but i still cant call the input window?

    I came to Java from ActionScript too, and I must say having ActionScript as your first programming language does NOT make it easy to learn other languages. I was incredibly lost when starting with Java.
    What does: public, static, abstract, void... and
    other things mean in front of the class name?You'll find all that in the Java Tutorial
    How can i call variables from another classes: if i
    have one class that does one thing and stores the
    result in a variable, how can i use that variable
    from a different class?To use the variable from another class, you need to make a call to the class. Let's say you're in ClassB; you would make a call to a ClassA variable by doing something such as:
    ClassA.myVar.myMethod();
    How can i call the input window to enter the value
    for variable? I've tried with importing
    "io.inputstream" library, and used the "extend"
    thing, but i still cant call the input window?I recommend reading the tutorial before you try anything like that.
