Question

There are problems w/ my iPhone first generation w/ the new July updates. The phone runs slow now. Could not play certain songs on iPod. phone reset back to the home screen when I go to certain sites on the Internet. Use to be able to go on the Internet on the 7 train and the phone freezes sometimes.
The thing that ***** is that if u don't have wi-fi u can't use the iTunes icon and utube is not clear. Utube ***** anyway. The thing that would make the phone offical is if the iPhone had cable tv.

Answer 1

I hope someone can answer this one. My 1st gen was doing the exact same s*. and now it's completley dead. Even when you do a hard boot with both top and home buttons it gives you the apple of death. I've let it sit until the battery goes out.
I'm a network analyst/engineer and I'm stumped. I've tried everything. I finally gave in and set up and appointment with a "genius." I have a feeling they're gonna have to replace it or something. It wont even register on a mac or win laptop to do a reset. I'm screwed.
I expect to hear more about this issue. I almost thing the firmware might not be compatible with some of the hardware???
might have to give in and buy a new one.....
