Still got questions regarding iPhone 4 signal.?

Ok buying a new iPhone tomorrow, currently, have the 3GS, which am quiet happy with, but am in a complex situation, with vodafone uk, wereby, I need to decide within 7 days, whether to choose an iPhone 4 or something else. Now the only worry I have is the signal of the iPhone, which I have come to get used to on my 3GS, and can live with it, cause I bought the handset cheaper, however the iPhone is going to cost me at least a thousand pounds in contract for 2 years, so want to make the right descision. So like I have said, having read a lot of info and it appears, thez, not much difference, in terms, of the signal, between, the 3GS and iPhone 4. Intact most are actually claiming better signal, on the 3GS. So is this the case, please please, help me out, with this answer, as I desperately, need to make a descision, on whether or not to stay, on my 3GS, based on signal.

Well, I guess I am here because of my negative feelings toward the iPhone 4. I agree with the comments already made, but that's not the complete story. Last week I returned 2 iPhone 4 because of reception problems. As stated by myself and others you must have a strong enough signal or be using a case/bumper else you will have reception problems.
If you purchase the iPhone 4 and find you are having reception problems you can call Apple Support. One of the first questions they ask you is wether or not you are using a case or bumper?
Other than that the iPhone 4 is fantastic!
I really wish that consumers were not so willing to work around this issue with a case or bumper. This only helps discourage Apple from ever really fixing the problem. Its looking more and more like I may have to wait for the iPhone 5.

  • Question regarding iphone and charger

    Hello,
    I have a scenario and 2 questions I would like to ask you
    Scenario:
    Iphone with 100% charged battery, iphone is still connected to laptop USB or wall power socket.
    True or False:
    a) the iphone draws power directly from the charger, the battery does not supply power to the iphone until the charger is disconnected.
    b) the iphone draws power from the battery --> the battery draws power from the charger (laptop or wall)
    Thanks in advance
    Bogdan

    The Apple hardware, iOS devices and MacBook Pros, charge until the battery reaches 100%.  At that point the charging circuit shutsdown and the device operates on line or external power until the charge level drops to 93-95% by normal trickle down.  At that point the charging circuit switches to charge the battery.
    So, as long as you are not charging the battery, and still plugged in, the device will run off line power.

  • HT204053 I just got my new iPhone and I had a iPod that had about $40 on it and I can't remember the answer to my security questions and whenever I send the email it never comes. So I was wondering if there was any way that I could make a new apple I'd an

    I just got my new iphone and I gave my phone the same apple ID as my iPod. Then I added $40 to my iTunes thinking that I could buy songs freely. When I went to go buy an album it said that I needed to answer some security questions to complete the purchase. So I clicked yes and it brought me to two questions that I totally forgot the answers to so I hit the link that said if you forgot your answers click here. I clicked it and it brought me to this website that you see all your information about your apple ID. So I went to privacy and security and the same two questions were there. I tried and didn't succeed. I even sent myself the email and I have been trying this for days on end and still never received any emails about those questions. So I thought what if I create a new apple ID then mabe I could transfer ONLY the money over, is this possible??  Because I would hate to see forty dollars go to total waste.

    Funds cannot be transferred from one Apple ID account to another.

  • Iphone 5 keeps cutting out when still got charge init

    CCan somebody help me my iPhone 5 keeps cutting out when still got charge left in it it is two years old also lose signal a lot help please

    Depending on the age of the phone and its usage, this could be battery issue and your battery might have to be replaced. If the phone is still charging with your fathers USB cable, make sure it is charged for at least 15min, then try to connect in recovery mode, explained here:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore
    If this does not work, you'll have to get it checked out by visiting an Apple Store or Authorized Apple Service Provider next to your place or by contacting Apple directly: Apple - Support - Service Answer Center

    Hi there wendyfromnewross,
    You may find the troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1368
    Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
    Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
    Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
    Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
    Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
    Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
    Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
    Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
    Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
    If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.

  • I got a new iPhone and i am trying to buy songs but when I go to buy a song on iTunes it says I have to answer my security questions and I don't remember the answers. I pressed where it says for them to email you your answers but I haven't gotten an email

    I got a new iPhone and i am trying to buy songs but when I go to buy a song on iTunes it says I have to answer my security questions and I don't remember the answers. I pressed where it says for them to email you your answers but I haven't gotten an email.  Is there another way to change or get the answers for the security questions?

    If the email hasn't arrived after a few hours and isn't in a spam filter, you need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • I forgot all of the answers to my security questions and when I set up my apple id I did not add a rescue email, I recently got a new iphone and I cannot purchase anything on it because it asks me to answer my security questions which i can't reset, help!

    I forgot all of the answers to my security questions and when I set up my apple id I did not add a rescue email, I recently got a new iphone and I cannot purchase anything on it because it asks me to answer my security questions which i can't reset because I do not have a rescue email. what do I do?

    this does not help. I have forgotten ALL of the answers to my security questions. I can NOT reset the answers to my security questions without answering two of the three security questions. The other way to reset the answers to these questions is for apple to send me an email on my rescue email addres which I DO NOT HAVE.

  • I have a question regarding my txt/alert tones. I recently updated my iPhone 5's software without first backing it up on iCloud or my computer (oops). After my phone finished updating, i lost the new ringtones and txt/alert tones i had bought.

    I have a question regarding my txt/alert tones. I recently updated my iPhone 5's software without first backing it up on iCloud or my computer (oops). After my phone finished updating, i lost the new ringtones and txt/alert tones i had bought. I connected my iPhone to my computer and sync'd it hoping that it could download my purchases from the itunes store and then put them back on to my phone but no such luck. When i look at my iphone on my computer and look at tones, they do not show up at all. However, if i click on the "On This iPhone" tab and click on "Tones" the deleted ringtones and altert tones show up...they are just grey'd out and have a dotted circle to the left of them. I also tried to go to the iTunes store on my phone and redownload them and it tells me that i have already purchased this ringtone and asks me if i want to buy it again. I press Cancel. I know when i do that with music it would usually let me redownload the song without buying it again but it wont let me with the ringtones...so how do i get them back? any help would be greatly appreicated

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

    I will address your second question.
    First, make sure your iPhone and iPad have absolutely identical Apple IDs.  If they do, use that Apple ID in Settings > iCloud on your iPhone to select the "Notes" option.  Lo and behold, all your iCloud notes should appear on your iPhone.

  • I just got a new iphone! I can't restore some in app content! The reason is I need to do the security questions. I'm 85% sure I put in the right answers but it's not working. Also when I try to reset it threw email I never get the message to fix it! Help!

    I have got a new iphone recently. But I can't restore in app purchases. I have tried many times to reset it threw email and never got the message. I know I'm checking the right email I get your advertising messages there. I'm 85% sure I'm using the right answers! This has been very frustrating! Please help make this right!

    We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    The reset link for the security question will send the email to your rescue email account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 -  that is the email account that you are checking, and you've checked the spam folder on it as well as the inbox, and tried clicking the reset link again ?
    If you aren't receivineg the email then you will need to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to view your rescue email address to check that it's correct, in case you need to use it in the potential future use

    Make sure it's plugged in all the way, because it clicks when it's no all the way In and many users get confused. If not try turning it.
