IPhone 3G Performance Worse with 4.2.1

Has anyone had their performance decrease with the 4.2.1 update? My phone is responding much more poorly. I can't open maps or any other application that uses location services over the cellular network. Totally bombs. Works ok with wifi, load is still slow but once loaded works ok. Also calendar and camera take even longer to load than they did before. Phone hangs a lot more also and many more calls failing.
Anyone else? I want to chuck my phone out the window. 6 months of fail.

I'm new to this but if you're using a PC (can't speak on Mac) try going to your Control Panel, click on the Add or Remove Programs icon, when the list populates scroll down to the Apple Mobile Device Support icon, click on Add/Remove (on Windows 7 its a right click on the line anywhere) a menu drops down or a window appears depending on your system, and it offers you the choice to Unintall, Change, or Repair. Choose the Repair option and it should update your system. Perhaps that's your problem. There are other options in that list to chose such as a link to click on which takes you to the webpage where help is available. I've discovered that cleaning out my Add/Remove program list to save storage space is good for my computer and also made me realize that we, the computer using public, have real power in that we can thin out that list considerably by just seeing which programs we use frequently or rarely and delete accordingly, scares the heck out of the big boys who design browsers and other useless programs that clog up our system. I just deleted Google Chrome who were so sorry to see me leave and was promptly sent a survey so that they could understand my reasons for leaving. I felt on par with them, for once and let them know that Internet Explorer 9 ripped them off. Good luck.

  • Is anyone facing the similar problem of visible lag while opening app with 3G data on? It seems apple has made 5s slow to improve iphone 4 performance.5s was very smooth on 7.0.6 even with 3G data on. Is this a bug? Is apple going to fix this soon?

    I have same Problem. I tried all options - Reset All Settings, Erase Content & reset all settings, Upgrated to IOS8.1, Restore using iTune. But problem persists.
    When I turn Cellular Data or Wifi ON, then there is a lag while opening the Apps. But If I turn Data/Wifi off, phone becomes super fast. I have checked with my friends. They are not facing this issue. Not sure if Apple know this.

  • Does anyone have a sticky iPhone since upgrading to ios8? Scrolling is rough in iTunes (horizontal album covers) and on the iPad it's much worse with photo and video albums! iPhone5s and iPad3 retina displays.

    Lots and lots of questions
    The new Photos app in OS X should address much of this - it greatly simplifies syncing stuff across machines. Apple has details on it up here:
    https://www.apple.com/osx/photos-preview/
    It says "coming this spring" and a pre-release version has already been made available to developer testers.

  • On the iPhone 5s, performing any edit on a black and white photo will render a strong purple tone. This occurs in any app under the current iOS. Sadly, every photo must then be re-edited to restore the original black and white.

    Hi everyone, I'm the one from the example above posted by @frankensinatra and I can confirm having the same problem.
    But I want to add something. The problem is not only related to black and white but to every picture, and it can be worse or not depending on the range of colors involved. Apparently, there is a shift between some RGB value that is going to remove some green producing a magenta look.
    I've started contacting some developer about this problem and some of them is trying to understand what's going on.
    In my case, the problem came up when I bought the new iPad mini Retina. I didn't have this problem with the previous iPad mini. Same OS for both devices.
    The photo you see in the link above is a perfect example of what happens just going from one app to another and saving to the camera roll. In that case, the situation doesn't change if I send that picture from within the app by email, or to another app using the "open in..." feature. It keeps being purple. And the problem can be reproduced all the time.
    Have some of you noticed the same?

  • Performance issue with Jdeveloper

    Hi Guys,
    I am experiencing strange performance issue with Jdeveloper 10.1.3.3.0.4157. There are many other threads regarding the performance issue in this forum, but the problem I have is a little bit different.
    I have two computers: one is Athlon 3200+ with Vista and another one is P4 dual core 6400 with XP (service pack 2). Both of them have 2GB memory.
    I am running the same simple project on both computer, but only the one with Vista has the problem. The problem is very similar to the problem mentioned in the thread:
    Re: IDE has become extremely slow?
    But it's much worse. It only happens only on JSF pages. Basically, any operations on the JSF pages are very slow. Loading the page, changing the attributes of a button in source editor, or even clicking the items in the design view take forever to run.
    The first weird thing is that it may use 100% CPU, but it never recover, which means the 100% CPU usage never stops or when it stops, the Jdeveloper stops responding.
    The second weird thing is that the project is not big. Actually, it's very small. The problem started to happen since last week. There are not big changes during the period. The only thing I can say is that we created two more JSF pages.
    The third weird thing is that the same project never happened on the P4+XP box. When I open the project on the P4+XP box, it’s always fast and no CPU spike.
    Any advises are welcome!
    Thanks,
    Steven

    Hi Guys,
    I re-made a simple test project for this problem and now I now always reproduce the problem in JDeveloper on both system (XP & Vista). Everytime I open this jspx file in the source editor and try to scroll up/down the source file, or manually delete an attribute, JDeveloepr will hang and the CPU usage is 0%.

  • Spill water on my Iphone and I want to recover photos on my Ipad The pictures on the Iphone were not shared with other apple devices is it possible get my photos from the iCloud ?

    spill water on my Iphone and I want to recover photos on my Ipad The pictures on the Iphone were not shared with other apple devices is it possible get my photos from the iCloud ?

    Had you set your iPhone up to use Photo Stream?
    Had your performed an iCloud backup of your iPhone before it was damaged?
    If you did neither of the above, then your photos are not in the cloud, and they are gone.
    If you performed an iCloud backup, then it would contain the photos in the iPhone's Camera Roll (taken on the iPhone) at the time of your last backup.  You could restore this iCloud backup to a device.
    If your iPhone used Photo Stream, those photos are immediately accessible to your iPad if you set it up to use the same Photo Stream.

  • HT1386 Iphone won't sync with Itunes

    I have my Iphone hooked up to the computer via USB, and it shows the Iphone on Itunes, however, it is not giving me an opetion to sync the Iphone or to Transfer my purchases.  It's also showing that 5.88 gigabites of my 8 gb Iphone 4 is used with the "Other" tab, leaving 313.8 mb left, which I know is incorrect because most of my storage on my Iphone is with music and other audio files.  .

    Make sure you have the Latest Version of iTunes Installed on your computer ( v 11.1)
    iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download
    Also... Perform a Restart of your Computer and your Phone.

  • IPhone 5 shuts down with the battery at 40%

    I'm having issues with my iPhone 5. It regularly shuts down with the battery being far from 0%. When I took it to the apple store, a "genius" said that the battery is fine and restored the phone to the factory settings. I set it up as new without touching the backup (with iOS 8), but the iPhone keeps shutting down with a half charged battery. If anythings, the problem only became worse with iOS 8.1. I would appreciate any suggestions on how to fix it.
    The iPhone is out of the warranty and is not eligible for battery replacement. Another issue I have is that the home button often responds with a delay, but I don't know if it's related to the main problem.
    Thanks

    Here's the battery info from iBackupBot:
    CycleCount: 368
    DesignCapacity: 1430
    FullChargeCapacity: 1200

  • Graphics performance worse after most recent update

    I just ran the most recent MacBook Pro update and now my graphics performance in WoW is terrible. It has rendered the game unplayable. It's probably a good thing, mind you, because I spend too much time playing anyway. But still, it shouldn't have made performance worse.
    Any way to go back or fix this problem?
    Thanks!

    I sent an email to Blizzard last night, but I wouldn't expect a reply or a patch for a while. I'll keep everyone posted.
    Unfortunately, I think the only way to go back to the previous drivers would involve re-installing the system from the disks that came with the machine, then doing every update save the last one. Sounds like a pain. I'll probably just wait for a Blizzard patch and get some more work done in the meantime, now that WoW is out of the picture!
    Are you going to send a bug report to Blizzard. They'll probably jump on it more quickly if a few of us step up. . .
    Gotta get that WoW fix. . .

  • If you registrate one Apple ID for each iPhone/iPad, you'll get 5GB on iCloud for each Apple ID, right? I have two iPhones and one iPad  with the same Apple ID, why can't I get 5 GB fo each of them?

    If you registrate one Apple ID for each iPhone/iPad, you'll get 5GB on iCloud for each Apple ID, right? I have two iPhones and one iPad  with the same Apple ID, why can't I get 5 GB fo each of them?

    Actually, everyone missed one point, when a device is priced, the cost of icloud storage space for that device is also included in it that is why they are able to give you 5gb each for each user ID, in nutshell there is nothing free coming with apple device purchase, it is paid for.  What they are trying by giving only 5gb per user ID irrespective of the number of devices used is pure broadlight looting, they take money from you when you buy each device and give you nothing, This is a case of goods and services bought but not fully deliverd ie apple can be suied for discreminatory treatment towards it's users. I wonder why no one tried this yet in America where everyone sue everyone for petty things..... there is no one to take up this issue? . if tim got any love for the guys who shell out money for the devices his company makes, he should be implimenting this as priority before someone wake up from sleep and sue him.

  • My itunes no longer syncs with iphone 5 yet works with my ipod

    My iPhone has always synced with iTunes no problem. I set my Ipod up on the same iTunes no problem. However, since upgrading my phone to the latest iOS I have been unable to update my music. I can select the music I want, click sync and although it appears to be syncing, no updates happen on my phone apart from it updates my contacts?!

    Hello Nash_x91x,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when syncing music to your iPhone 5.  I recommend resyncing the music to your iPhone for the issue you described. 
    If you are syncing automatically, resync content to the iPhone by unchecking "Sync Music" and click "Apply."  Then check "Sync Music" and click "Apply" again.  If you do not want to sync your entire library, be sure to select "Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres" and select the content you want to sync:
    If you sync manually, delete the music when your iPhone is selected in iTunes and drag new content to your iPhone.
    You can find the syncing steps in the following article:

    Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • De-authorizing itunes? Several of my authorized pc's have died, and have no way to deauthorize iTunes on them. Now I am unable to synch purchases on my Iphone to new computer with iTunes because I already have 5 computers authorized. What can be done?

    Several of my authorized pc laptops and desktops have completely died over the years, and have no way to deauthorize iTunes on them. Now I am unable to synch purchases on my Iphone to new computer with iTunes because I already have 5 computers authorized. What can be done?

    Deauthorise all to reset to zero, then authorize again.
    Following quote from Apple Support:
    If you need to authorize your new computer and are unable due to already having five authorized computers, you can deauthorize all computers by doing the following:
    Click iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes.
    If you're not signed in to the store, click the Account button, then enter your account name and password.
    Click the Account button again (your Apple ID appears on the button), enter your password, and then click View Account.
    In the Account Information window, click Deauthorize All.
    Note: You may only use this feature once per year. The Deauthorize All button will not appear if you have fewer than two authorized computers. If you need assistance on using this feature, please contact iTunes Store support via email (http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/).

  • IPhone 4 stop working with ios 6.1

    iPhone 4 stopped working with ios 6.1, visited apple first time, restored phone and worked, less than 24 hours later stopped working again, back to the store, I told iPhone is out of warranty and they'll replace for $150. iPhone worked fine with previous version, no problem at all. Asked to restore to the previous software version, told can't be done. Why should I pay for a damage caused by a software update. Tec claims that ios 6.1 will not work with my phone because it discovered some hardware malfunction, possible the home button. They can't repair. suggested to go to a third party. I'm a satisfied Apple product user for many years. What happened? Any welp out there?

    Hey.. I have had this issue since yesterday afternoon.. Some people are saying to keep restoring again and again until it finally goes through.. I have done so like 10 times on my MAC and then I used my husband's PC and tried it 4 times.. No success.. I called apple support, but no help came from there at the end, and the only thing they were able to suggest to me is to sell me a new phone just like mine for a discounted price.. **** NO
    Anyways after about 18h of search and stress I came across this link:

    That will only make it possibe to go backward.. You will end up back with the IOS 5, but at least you will have a working phone and it will bring back all your contacts and everything else that you ever had backed up on icloud and on your computer. There might be descripencies with the Applications but again this is an issue easily solved, you can always download them back.
    Two more things: One, you do not have to download the old version of the itunes, the newest version worked for me without any issues
    When choosing to download the older IOS 5.1.1, you will need to figure out whether your carrier is GSM or CDMA but you can easily google this info online..
    Well hope that will work for you like it did for me
