Okay, can everyone who has no issues with the 3G i phone please tell all?

Have been reading all the threads where the i-phone 3 G is failing badly... Could people who are happy, post their thoughts on why they are happy and what's working really well.... It would be good to hear of people not dropping signals and getting fast 3 G speeds....

I've been posting this a couple places because I keep seeing people with the same problems posting...no search = hard to find answers.
My iPhone doesn't do the perma-crash anymore when I get interrupted while installing apps, and when I sync my phone it doesn't try to do a backup every time, even if I install new apps or uplug/replug. Here's how:

Oh, and everything else is great. AWESOME 3G support in Virginia Beach, VA, LOVE the multi-delete in mail, really happy with GPS and some of these cool apps coming around.

  • I added an iTunes card to my account. THe balance shows on the account, but I can not download, because iTunes has an issue with the debit card linked to the account. Shouldn't it default to the balance from the card I added?

    iTunes keeps telling me my debit card is declined, when I am trying to use an iTunes card that I added today. The amount from the iTunes card shows on the account.

    You need to fix the issue with the credit card on the iTunes account or you can remove the credit card.

  • Is there anyone who has good experience with the E...

    I'm a current owner of E72 with a multitude of problems which i'm tired out talking about. Anyway, I'm thinking of upgrading to the E6, because of it's price in my country and also because i'm familiar with nokia phones' symbian platforms. Initially i did not want to buy any nokia products anymore, but I want to give it another go because of the mentioned reasons and also due to my E72 frustrating me every other day. In addition, my few other options are android touchphones and i really dislike full fleged touchphones, not to mention their battery life. My other option is the Blackberry which has no front facing camera which i need making video calls, so I'm really looking at the E6. I've read so many horror stories in this thread that i'm really worried that i'll get a lemon, so I want to read some positive stories or some judicious pros and cons, before taking the plunge! Please help thank you!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I have owned my E6 for over 3 months and after the weekends new firmware (025) the phone now is almost perfect.
    The audio quality for music is good and voice calls is the best that you can find, even in noizy environments.
    Battery endurance is very good now, perhaps 80-100 hours in moderate use.
    Also the former problem with backlight is now corrected by Nokia.
    After the firmware the phone is very fast, I mean this cincerely. Also it seems that connectivity over 3G or WLAN is 100% perfect now.
    The vibration is perhaps a little weak for men, but woman can feel it...I tested it various ways.... Nokia will solve this matter also.
    Forgotten things, that is really good is removable battery, hot-swoppable memory card and the the feeling of handling the phone.
    Not a single scratch or dust problem after 3 months...
    The RAM-memory seems to be enough for everything I am doing.
    The graphic and the 1GB ROM-memory certainly makes the Nokia E6 competent.
    The qwerty is really amazing and the screen also, after experimenting with font magnifier (using 119%) and the size in the web browsers and of course the phone settings for font size have actually made this E6 excellent. It took me some time to be satisfied with the settings, but I am now more than happy with mine.
    As said, the program RemindMe is useful for light indicators for sms/mms, emails and calls. That solve that issue to me and even if Nokia built-in will be better in the next firmware I stil wouldn´t quit the remindMe.
    Finally, the camera is also more than good, the lack of autofocus doesn´t disturb me at all. I never take photos of small documents with the camera.
    I have to say, just buy it after this latest firmware, and then add those applications that you need for productivity. The applications I use you can see here below.
    I uninstalled the F-secure firewall/antivirus that caused some strange behaviors in early august, especially when I connected to a server with the built-in filebrowser (webdav).
    PS Mine have never restarted and I can´t remember a hang. DS

  • I have heard that the iphone 5 has hardware issues with the lock button and sometimes the power button...is this a recurring problem or is it easily fixable?

    Is this problem affecting most users? I heard that it usually takes abotu 2-3 weeks after getting a replacement that these problems might occur and I don't wanna shell out a lot of money only to have to constantly go to the apple store and get a new replacement regardless if it is free.

    I currently have a defective lock/sleep button on my iPhone 5. After putting up with it for 3 weeks, I took it to an apple store. The "genius" told me that because I'm 50 days over my year warranty, I would have to pay $280 to get a replacement. They will not fix the problem. They can only give you a refurbished phone. BEWARE: the replacement is only free if the phone is still within the one year warranty or if you have an extended apple care. I'm still blown away on the fact that I payed $500 for a product that defected in a little over a year and be told by a condescending apple genius that I have to pay $280 to resolve the problem. My friends who have Samsungs and HTCs have 2 year old phones that work as well as the day they bought them. I had a blackberry for almost 3 years and had no issues at all, but a highly advanced, "well made" apple product barely lasted a year. My wife's iPhone 4S shuts off when the battery drops to 30%. And of course the guys at the Genius Bar say they can't help. I shouldn't have to pay for a replacement unless I did the damage myself. I've been an iPhone user since the first iPhone. And every year, I've had something break right after the warranty expires (failed audio jack on iPhone 1, failed earphone on iPhone 3G, failed home button on iPhone 4). It's getting really old spending a lot of money on cheap products and having to deal with the "better-than-you" swagger from the Genius Bar.

  • No option to enable html email. An issue with the carrier. RIM please help

    I am registered as a BIS user with STC ( Saudi Telecome.  www.stc.com.sa ). I turned out that data over the air compression is turned off! As a result , I can't enable html email. resending service book , pulling the battery and upgrading OS won't enable the html option on my blackberry bold, as it is a restriction imposed by RIM when over-the-air compression is turned off by the carrier.. I am on thier unlimited package and hence I have no problem in consuming uncompressed large amout of data. Can you please enable this feature!! I hardly see the reason not to.
    Regards,
    Ali

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    The answer is simple -- it's because these forums have nothing to do with your formal support. Rather, these are user-to-user forums where volunteers try to help out other kind souls as best they can. For free, formal support is only available via your carrier...who can escalate into RIM if needed. But these forums only rarely are visited by anyone from RIM...but should never be considered part of the formal support system.
    Good luck!

  • Is there anyone who has wifi issues with iOS 5.01?

    Wifi is not connecting properly with its 5.01 ? Is there a solution?

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    Also try this - Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

  • My repaired water damaged macbook pro has no audio with the icon greyed out. i tried all the suggestions but nothing seems to work. however, on my external clone, the output does work. any ideas about this?

    I tried reseting the pram, reinstalling the software, plugging the headphone jack in and out, deleting playlist but nothing works. on the external clone, the output works with noise but still no input device.
    can i use a sound card instead?

    If you just had the system repaired for water damage what did they replace? If it was the Logic board then all parts should work and if they don't, like the sound, then they didn't fix it correctly and you should take it back to them for a proper fix.

  • Has anyone had issues with the accelerometer in the iPhone 6 plus?

    II've had issues with the accelerometer in the iPhone 6 plus. I went from landscape mode and then went into podcast app. I went to the search tab and this is the keyboard that came up:
    This isn't the only issue with the accelerometer though. I've also come out of clash of clans which is a landscape only mode game. I go to my home screen and my wallpaper is in landscape still but my apps are in portrait? The seems to be some RAM issues with the iPhone 6 plus but I'm not sure if that has any issue with the transition from landscape to portrait.

        Belynda227,
    That's definitely odd, we certainly need to get to the bottom of this so you can use it safely while driving. Have you been able to use it in the past without completing the factory reset? The factory reset deleted everything from your phone, is that the type of reset you're doing? If so, you need to pair your phone every time, which explains the problem. Is your car compatible with the phone? Some cars are not compatible, in this case some features work but not all. Use http://vz.to/11fpca7 to review compatibility.

  • Since last weekend (3-15-15) I have been unable to send/receive text messages with a friend who has Sprint service. The messages send with no errors on either side, but neither side is receiving the messages. Is anyone else having any similar issues?

    Since last weekend (3-15-15) I have been unable to send/receive text messages with a friend who has Sprint service. The messages send with no errors on either side, but neither side is receiving the messages. It seems to be only this one person affected by this issue, everyone else that I've tried sending messages to has responded with no trouble. Is anyone else having any similar issues?

    Retrohacker, Your text messages are too important to be missed! Let's figure this out, together. Are you able to successfully make and receive calls from your friend? Which phone do you have with us? Any new messaging applications or changes that you can recall on the phone since this issue began?

  • 10.4.11 Has Apple addressed/fixed issues with the latest update to Tiger?

    Like many of you, I installed the 10.4.11 update last weekend with disastrous results. I eventually had to Archive and Install and my machine seems to be recovered. Has anybody had this problem and gone on to try the update a second time with better results ?? Any words of wisdom?? or had some sort of feedback from Apple to indicate they have or are going to resolve the problems with this update.

    +I just posted this on the thread that seemed geared to those who "had success" (many more than half had issues) with the recent update after pi55ing and moaning due to crashing several times while trying to post there. Subsequently I found this thread and a bit of absoultion. I have eliminated the links, thinking them redundant but they are posted to that thread.+

    A little story, when I first tried to install Jaguar on my then Beige (Yeah, remember them!) G3 MT, it took me a full six months to get that "Darn Cat" in that house! Oh, how I sweated and swore, you talk about "legacy", I waved every "dead chicken" that was suggested to no avail. Ended up that before I bought the unit someone had switched out the CD/ROM for one from one year later, still Apple issue, mind you. I sent to OpAmp and got an original and "The Cat" slid in as quick as grease through a goose. That's how tightly wound Apple was and still is in many ways and is why they stopped the clones. This was one of a slew of many little things you had to get used to in "Mac Land".
    One other small thing you used to do a "clean install", you still can, but under OS 9, after you were satisfied (Conflict Catcher made things ever so easy!) all was peachy, you could simply trash your Previous System Folder and get back some valuable disk space. Well not to long after my success with the install of Jaguar and still not understanding OS X at all, I was still working mainly in OS 9, I did a Clean Install on my OS X, horsed around with settings which was difficult without Conflict Catcher and bravely trashed my Prev Sys Folder. Don't ever, EVER do that. What is a seemingly empty shell but for redundant Apps and meaningless abbreviations, is indeed a necessary if gigabyte eating Albatross you are doomed to carry!
    My point with these two parables is that we are creatures of trust and habit, living on borrowed time. We have been blessed with a computer system that is virtually foolproof given certain caveats, caveats if adhered to even marginally would guarantee success. I my self have gotten into some very bad habits of late and think that this may be the cause of my computers malaise.
    Drop to your knees and be grateful you don't have a PC (shudder!)! Yes Virginia, there is an Insanity Clause! I just installed WinXP on an Intel Mac, and after it was over all I wanted was a stiff drink and a shower!

  • Has anyone had issues with the latest i-tunes update 11.1.4 on Windows Vista

    I downloaded the update on 24th Jan, and when I tried to open i-tunes after that it failed to start and the message was MSVCR80.dll and the window suggested that I remove and re-install i-tunes.
    I did this and then my CD/DVD drive was not recognised. I then decided to go for a system restore prior to the update. When I did this i-tunes worked again but a window opens every 30seconds saying 'Mobile device helper is not working'  At one point I had 116 windows open. Has anyone else had this problem or can offer any advice please? I have an i-pod classic and my system is windows vista which is approx 8yrs old. I have never had any problem with i-tunes updates before.
