Are these common problems with the 3g?

So I had the old iPhone and absolutely loved it! I get the new one after waiting a few weeks so there was actually some available. Anyways, I had some problems with it when I got it and took it to my local apple store and they fixed is supposedly! Problems eventually came back! So I called apple and talk to a tech. He advised me to send it in and get a new one. So I payed the 20$ to get a new one. The new phone ended up great and worked just fine now the same problems have come back! The problems consist of, the text ring going away after about an hour or restarting the iphone, the ringtone not working sometime, it freezing a lot, simple little things like that, plus more.
Basically im really irritated that the huge iphone 3g that was the newest fastest phone to come out has little things like this that have yet to be fixed. What is apple going to do about this and when??

Firstly yes these are common problems and secondly hopefully they will be fixed with updated software 2.1 which is due for release this coming Firday!

  • Is this a common problem with the Samsung Nexus Phone

    Going on my 3rd phone. The first brand new phone after 6
    months would not allow the battery to be charged. The 2nd phone replaced under warranty
    dropped calls and would not connect to the net. I am now waiting for the 3rd warranty
    replacement phone. At this point I don't feel to good about my Samsung Nexus
    Phone.

    It was a Verizon customer service person who told me that this is a common problem with Samsung Nexus model phones. From what you are saying that is not the case. As you suggested the store did change the sim card
    at no cost to me. Unfortunately it did not resolve the problem.  The Brookfield Connecticut Verizon store could
    not resolve the problem and said "it was a phone problem not a service problem." The local store and the Verizon national customer service would not exchange the phone or cancel the service without an early termination penalty.
    The phone was sold to me by Verizon at a discounted price. I signed a 2 year service contract because of that promotional. I think Verizon and Samsung have a shared responsibility for the operation of the phone. Verizon customer service implied that there responsibility was limited to the service only. I say not so when you use it as a promotional tool to sell your service. I contacted Samsung tech service and they have accepted the reasonability of fixing the problem. Verizon needs to fix there problem with customer service and get all there people on the same page. 

  • How many of you are having these reported problems with the iPhone 5?

    I'm thinking of getting an iPhone 5 after the 11th, when my current iPhone 4 contract expires.
    With my luck with Apple products I'll probably get one with all the problems you read about:
    - light leaks,
    - bubbles on the screen,
    - yellow tints,
    - reversed volume buttons,
    - scratches out-of-the-box...
    How prevelant are these? Did your iPhone 5 have any of the above? Any other common problems?
    I would wait until things "settle down" but I only have a window of one month in which I can switch providers without penalty if I decide to do that (crazy Japan system).
    Thanks,
    doug

    My two new phones will arrive tomorrow, but honestly, I don't expect any issues, like with every other iOS based device I've bought.  Just remember that coming on these forums, is kind of like visiting a hospital and thinking that everyone on the planet must be sick.  The "gruntled" of this world are usually the loudest, while the usually very happy are nowhere to be seen or heard from.
    I have at least a dozen friends who have already gotten their new iPhone 5.  Not one of them has any issues.  None.  No light bleeding.  No scuffs (oh sure, you can scratch the new phone if you try, it is afterall cased in annodized aluminum - so use a case to keep it pristine), no reverse volume buttons (I hadn't even heard that one), no bubbles, well you get the idea.
    I suspect you can buy without fear and I'm sure you'll really be pleased you did.

  • In desperate Need of support of an all too common problem with the xt912's

    https://vzwsupport.jive-mobile.com/#jive-discussion?content=%2Fapi%2Fcore%2Fv2%2Fdiscussions%2F808263
    First off,i tried to reply to the above link/thread,because my issue is IDENTICAL,so this below post,is what i tried to wright into the reply,though it wouldn't work...
    Hello, Please forgive me rehashing an old thread, but due to the fact that this is the identical-odd situation needed to reply to this....
    We have the xt912 and just got it back on refurb, for another one that had this identical problem. So we have had 3 of these,and two have had this same horrible issue.And it already is having these problems and we just got it not long ago....The hdmi/rotate-screen issue IDENTICAL to this....
    We have already had another Xt912 with the same exact issues,so no offense,this problem is getting very old.
    Could you please check my imei (it’s my sons phone) and possibly see if there is something you can do for us?  the phone is at the point to where it’s not safe for my son, as he needs to call us from his middle school sometimes, but it’s to the point to where this isn't even working anymore. The screen won’t turn and the dock message keeps coming up. I've tried 4+ hard resets, And these droids are getting very disheartening...   Especially with how much money we spend with you, versus some of our straight talk phones...
    Please let me know, and many thanks

        dovedescent7,
    I am sorry to hear that you are having problems with your son's phone. I know you stated that you have reset his phone many times. Have tried running the device in Safe Mode? http://vz.to/JOEri7 are the steps to put it in Safe Mode. Safe Mode tells us if it is an application error or the device.
    Thank you,

  • Are there still problems with the free Iwork trial when you then buy it?

    Hi all,
    new macbook user - it's brilliant by the way, and first post on here so hi all.
    Saw this thread via a search, and saw similar points on an Amazon review:
    http://discussions.info.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2202953
    Does anyone know if this problem still exists (thread was some time ago) or can I download the free trial without worrying (would like to do some work this weekend and dont want to wait for delivery of the software - I def plan to buy it).
    Apols if the topic has been recently covered, please direct me to that if so
    Thanks

    Apple made a decision which boggles my mind: there are two versions of iWork, one you purchase online getting a serial number you apply to the demo. The demo contains the full contents of the program, you lose nothing by purchasing the program this way. The other version of iWork is a boxed copy, the same as the demo+serial# except that this version requires no serial number. Mixing the two creates unhappy people
    If you download the demo and then purchase the boxed version you must remove the demo (and all support files and preferences associated with the demo) before installing the disc copy. If you don't, the program thinks you need a serial number and continues working in demo mode until it expires.
    If you can't wait for the box to arrive, why not just download the demo and purchase the serial# online from Apple?

  • Anyone having trouble with this phone and their in car bluetooth?  Calls dropping not recognizing the device.  Had the car bluetooth reset at dealer. They said it is a common problem with the iPhone?

    Bluetooth in car is not recognizing my device and when it does it will only stay connected about 5 minutes.   Blue tooth has been reset at the dealer. They said it is very common with the iPhone? The car is a 2014 Toyota Highlander.  This is very very frustrating as I have a 45 minute commute to work and do not want to have to hold my phone.... Thank you for any help.

    Wow you would think the newer car is just an updated version of what your husbands has.
    I wonder if your husbands car was updated to the same connect system if his would not connect?
    Does your husbands phone work because he does not have the new iOS from Apple?
    Can he hook to your connect system in the car?

  • What are the common problems with the 15 inch 2.16 Macbook Pro Core 2 Duo?

    I have been reading in the forum and have noticed that some of the MBP C2D have a few problems (wireless, screen, etc). I just want a list of things to look for if I get one. I have learned from the past to get it fixed fast, or else Apple does not prioritize it as well. Thank you.

    got mine in october.
    imo(and other pc converts as well) it hardly lives up to the hype+pricetag.
    First/second/third iteration...it runs hot and slow.
    Compared to what? Any other macs? Can't say. Compared to my experiences with other pc notebooks...that's where I'm coming from.
    Author was looking for feedback from MBP owners.
    2cents submitted.
    Author didnt specify..'issues with MBP as compared to other Apple computers', I don't think anyway.
    A company makes a major shift with it's hardware, and expects the software that pre-exists will smoothly transition...is a rush job if you ask me.
    I just feel it would have been better, having been released with a FULLY compatible os.

  • We are still having problems with the "Could not initialize the application's security component" error message after performing suggested fixes?

    We have been attempting to resolve this error in our Lab Environment with FireFox version 14.0.1. The application has been virtually installed in our PC environment, running WIN 7 and launches without error for most users. When performing the suggest "fixes" at http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/couldnt-initialize-applications-security-component we found:
    1. There is adequate hard drive space
    2. Permissions are set correctly.
    3. Once the "Cert8" file is deleted it does not regenerate upon logging out and relaunching Firefox. Not sure why this occurs.
    4. Could not create a new profile since these rights are not extended to users in the lab environment.
    Is anyone using Firefox in a similar lab environment, having this same issue and been able to resolve the problem? Does version 15.0.1 address this problem and provide a fix?

    Try to remove or rename the secmod.db (secmod.db.old) file in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    If that didn't help then remove or rename cert8.db (cert8.db.old) as well.
    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

  • I have a common problem with the iPod Touch.....has anyone figured it out??

    Frequently when listening to music, browsing safari, or playing videos, my ipod touch will stop abruptly and return to the home screen without reason. Shutting down the iPod is a quick fix, but within a half hour the same problem arises again. Has anyone found a permanent solution to this problem? If not, does anyone know if there is a scheduled ipod software update to fix the problem? Thanks a lot!!

    If you are listening-browsing-watching the same time it looks like there is not enough memory for the iPod and it closes applications being run

  • Problem with the item in complaint

    Hello everyone,
    We are facing a problem with the customizing of item category in CRM,
    Our issue is, we are doing a complaint with items, those items have column where we can see the value, description, quantityu2026
    Here is our thing we need to have these columns active or deactivate (grey) depending on the product.
    We are not sure if it is possible by customizing of item or customizing of material, or we need a development in order to achieve this requirement.
    Any help?
    Thank you in advance.

    Hi,
    If you are having products with different item category groups then  you can create different item categories for them.
    Then depending on the item category you can do the development to grey out the fields.
    But if the product have nothing to differentiate then it would be difficult to carry out the development also.
    Regards,
    PP

  • Problem with the browse sequence back and browse sequence next widget placed in the screen layout

    Hi,
    Some basics: We are using Robohelp 10 to  generate multiscreen  html5 output. We used the pharmaceutical  screen layout downloaded from:  http://helpx.adobe.com/robohelp/robohelp-screen-profiles-layouts.html but modified it to match our GUI.
    We are having a problem with the browse sequence back and browse sequence next buttons placed in the screen layout from the widgets tool bar. We are in no way experts at this part of Robohelp...and the css portion of all this is a bit of mystery but we have managed to get mostly what we need. Now we just need these buttons to work. In the past we used Airhelp and things worked great. Can anyone help us understand why the sequence buttons are not showing up in the output even though it does in the topic preview?
    Also
    This shows up in the  layout.css file:
    a.wBSBackButton {
                    margin: 0 8pt 0 0;
                    padding: 0;
                    background-color: transparent;
    img.wBSBackButton {
                    border: none;
    a.wBSNextButton {
                    margin: 0 8pt 0 0;
                    padding: 0;
                    background-color: transparent;
    img.wBSNextButton {
                    border: none;
    Also btw, I forgot to mention that we are linking our FrameMaker files.
    Appreciate the help.
    Thanks!

  • Any charging problems with the classic?

    I recently bought a new 6th gen nano to use mostly in my car. I have an Alpine deck with the ipod connector cable. Everything works fine except that it wont charge when connected to my car.
    So i've done a bit of searching and that seems to be a common problem with the new nano's. People are having trouble charging them with anything other than their computers.
    I am going to return the nano and would like to get a classic to try. Has anyone experienced any problems with charging the latest classic on docks, wall chargers, in their cars, etc?
    Thanks in advance for any advice.
