Waiting for the Iphone 5

Love my Iphone 3G and realize it is time to upgrade but this 4.2.1 upgrade was anti climatic resulting in the sporatic disappearance of my photos. I liked apple because I felt they address small issues as well as large ones. Dont change!

lol just felt like commenting yeah my upgrading process is always crap i end up losing everything it will back up, update, then restore and like a second before it finishes it will randomly like lose connection to my iphone and it will never sync all my stuff back to the Iphone so i end up losing everything and im waiting on the Iphone 5 also or Iphone 4G whatever they decide to call the one coming out this summer..... i like 4G cuz that would prob mean they are going to have 4G internet on it which if they don't im going to be quite upset seeing as how every phone is moving to make 4G phone that will be out now not later it will be a dumb idea if they decide to make it not 4G also Gorilla glass its time for Apple to make some changes and adding the glass would be much better so many people already hate iphones cuz of their glass problems i have dropped my iphone often and every time its like another crack comes up thankfully i havent had a horrible drop considering my screen part is like perfect but i have cracks at the speaker at the top and cracks around the home button next Iphone hopefully will have Gorilla Glass and it will be much better!

  • Should i buy an iphone 4s or wait for the iphone 5 to come out

    hi, just wanted to know if i should buy an iphone 4s or simply wait for the iphone 5 to come out... Do you know what is going to be new on the iphone? is there going to be another iPhone?

    We only know what information Apple has released. The only real thing released is iOS 6 will be out in the Fall. We have heard no official announcement as to the date of that release, nor have we received any announcement of the release of a new iPhone, no matter what they want to call it. Your decision to purchase a phone has to be based on your need at the time and what is available.

  • Contract ending soon...wait for the iPhone 5?

    My contract ends on 6/4/11 and I'm thinking about waiting until the summer to see if there will be a Verizon iPhone 5 since I don't want to buy the iPhone 4 now and have it be obsolete within a few months.
    If the iPhone 5 does come out later on in June or July, my contract will already be over. I've heard that contracts continue on a month-by-month basis if you don't cancel it but I can't find any specific info on the site. Is that true?
    Suggestions?

    a couple of ways to look at this, of course this is amongst the dozens of threads already discussing this
    1. "IF" a new one comes out in june the iphone 4 is not obsolete, it is still a great, fast phone that will continue to get updates as Apple releases them
    2. Buy now, if a new one comes out in june, you can get like $400 or so on ebay and buy the new one
    3. there is most likely a new iphone coming for att in June,  NO ONE knows if it will be for Verizon also, so you may be waiting for absolutely nothing
    4. and the most obvious most given answer, If you keep waiting for the next best thing, you will never own anything
    My other phone, the droid inc is older then the iphone 4, A LOT of droid phone have been released after it and my Inc is still not even close to being obsolete, it runs fine.
    Maybe at this point I finally will say the iphone 3g, not 3gs, is almost obsolete because 4.2 killed it and it's terribly slow, that phone is almost 3 years old and its just becoming obsolete, I still sold it however for almost $200 on ebay so it still holds the value, I sold it for what i paid 2 years later

  • Should I wait for the iPhone 5 or get the iPhone 4S now?, Should I wait for the iPhone 5 or get the iPhone 4S now?

    I dont know what to do! I really want an iPhone 4S now, but I don't know if i will regret it later once the iPhone 5 is released. What should I do? Is it worth the wait? If I do get the iPhone 4S right now will I be happy? I know it sounds stupid, but you all probably know more about this than me.. I'm new to Apple products.

    Not really, we're all users just like you & no one here would have any idea about any future Apple products. Further, the terms of use here prohibit the discussion about Apple's plans.

  • How long do i have to wait for the iPhone dev license?

    Hello all..
    I am waiting now for serveral weeks (6!) for my developer licence... but nothing.. no email, no response (just the autogenerated one) from apple (i wrote 2 mails yet..)
    i would just like to know how long did you wait everybody? A friend of mine (and colleague) has also send the request weeks ago now.. the same: no response.. is it maybe for firms easier to get it?
    i bought a macbook air and an iPhone - just do develop.. and i really have to say that i am disappointed.
    i mean: we have really good ideas (at least, we think so) and are doing mobile apps also as our diploma thesis for university.. but we cant test the software without this sh.. licence.
    apple, go on that way and you will lose many creative minds. we all know that your marketing is special, but this is just.. stupid. android is waiting, the opened symbian is waiting.. so, what are you doing?
    for everybody who is in the same situation, read: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WaitingforGodot

    just call them by phone..

  • How much do i have to pay if i want to upgrade my iphone 4s for the iphone 6 plus

    how much do i have to pay for upgrade an iphone 4s to the iphone 6 plus?
    how much do i have to pay for exchange a broken iphone 5s for a new one?

    some retailers buy your phone and help u to put credit towards new iphone. if your iphone has accidental damage it will cost you 299 CAD dollars, if the only screen is broken it will cost 119 dollars. if the iphone is under warranty. i suggest you to replace the display first then. wait for the iphone to give you issues so that geniuses replace the iphonr for free

  • Should You Buy An iPhone Now, Or Wait For The Next One?

    Great article by HuffPost Tech.
    The most common thing I get asked whenever I tell anyone I'm a tech writer is some version of the question: "Should I get a new iPhone now, or should I wait until the next one comes out?" It is as though my business card should read not "Technology Writer," and instead "iPhone Psychic"
    Not that I am not happy to prognosticate! And in that spirit, here's a look at the questions on everyone's mind: Should I buy an iPhone now? And if not now, when?
    First, let me say that I am fascinated by the peculiar kind of panic that I encounter in people I meet who are deciding on a purchase date for their next Apple phone. I call it the iSenberg Uncertainty Principle: Potential iPhone buyers exist in a constant state of anxiety, perpetually worrying that purchasing an iPhone on any given day will mean that they will miss out on the inevitably cooler version with the mind-blowing new features soon down the road. The Cupertino Sword of Damocles constantly dangles over their heads, threatening to pierce them with unhipness and iShame.
    Here is one solid piece of advice I can offer to help you avoid the Sword: Do not buy any new iPhone until September. Apple has an annual media conference each September, and every blog with the word 'Mac' in the title is reporting that Steve Jobs is going to do his black turtleneck thing and introduce some kind of new iPhone there. The September Media conference is generally used to present the new iPods, but as All Things Digital reports, Apple plans to "commandeer" the conference for its official iPhone announcement.
    Apple is long overdue to release its new iPhone anyway, if history is any indication. Look at this handy little timeline:
    June 2007: original iPhone released
    June 2008: iPhone 3G released
    June 2009: iPhone 3Gs released
    June 2010: iPhone 4 released
    June 2011: Nothing!
    In other words, the 5th generation iPhone is already a month late, so it makes sense that the rumors are swirling. Apple's tardiness can be explained by the fact they've actually already released two iPhones in 2011 -- the Verizon iPhone in February and the unlocked iPhone 4 in June. Their schedule is all screwy, like a traveler trying to get over jet lag. But all signs point to them getting right with a September Apple iPhone release.
    So what jaw-dropping new feature will this iPhone boast? We're hearing that the "iPhone 4S," as it is rumored to be called, won't be the dramatic re-imagining that many of us have come to expect with each new iPhone release. Tech blogThis Is My Next thinks that it will be thinner and lighter, and that it will run on a new chip; the New York Times thinks that it will be the same dimensions as the iPhone 4 but that it will be cheaper. Bloomberg agrees with This Is My Next on the chip and adds that the rear-facing camera will upgrade to 8 megapixels from 5 megapixels.
    Now, even if you're just a normal, non-geek iPhone user, who doesn't care if the rear-facing camera doubles its megapixel count, or if Apple has changed the manufacturer of its data processors, or whatever, you still need to at least wait for the alleged iPhone announcement, and here's why: if history is any indicator, the introduction of a newer iPhone model is accompanied by a drop in price of older iPhone models. When the iPhone 3GS was announced, the price of the iPhone 3G dropped by $100; when the iPhone 4 was announced, the price of an iPhone 3GS also dropped by $100. Even if you know that you're not going to drop $400 on whatever iPhone Apple begins peddling in September, there is no sense in paying more money for an iPhone 4 or 3Gs now when the base price of both seem like locks to drop in two months.
    But before we start fantasizing, how can we be so certain that Jobs is even going to announce an iPhone in September if Apple hasn't so much as indicated such a thing? How do we know that all of these rumors weren't just started by lonely nerds like me and my co-workers emailing each other from our mother's basements, inciting iPhone rumors all on our own?
    Well, first of all, I don't live with my mother; and second of all, the new iPhone rumors have sprung forth from two reliable sources held in high journalistic regard.
    The first is esteemed, award-winning tech journalist John Paczkowski of All Things Digital, who blazed iPhone prognostication trails by predicting back in April that an updated iPhone 4 would be unveiled at the September Apple music Conference and has steadfastly maintained the claim is true through June and into July. In fact, he confirmed as recently as July 5 that a shiny new iPhone looked to be in the early stages of supply chain production, and that people close to the company still believe that the new iPhone would be ready for the Jobs treatment in September.
    So there is Reliable Source One.
    Reliable Source Number Two is the Wall Street Journal, not exactly a one-laptop operation. The paper gives "the end of September" as a target launch date, which squares up with both Paczkowski's prediction of a September announcement and release. This doesn't even mention This Is My Next's separate prediction of a September release, nor 9to5Mac reporting that there are going to be two new iPhones in September, one low-end and high-end. But now we're falling down the rabbit hole and into the basement again, so let's focus:
    There is likely to be a new iPhone in September. It will likely affect the price of all the other iPhones. The iPhones available now -- the iPhone 4 and the iPhone 3Gs -- will probably be cheaper in two months. Unless you drop your current iPhone in a pool, a bathtub or a volcano, do not buy an iPhone until Steve Jobs opens his beautiful brilliant mouth at the Apple conference in early September. When the post-turtleneckian dust settles, we'll have a clearer picture of whether or not this rumored new iPhone is worth the money. And then we can talk about--well, whether or not you should buy an iPhone now, or wait until the next one comes out.

    Apple has two prototypes out testing now.  One is a thinner totally redesigned case.  The problem with it is that Foxconn can't seem to build it.  Hence the delay.  The other prototype uses the existing case, but with updated (read dual core) internals.  If they can get production up by September the first phone will be released and will be the iPhone 5.  If they cannot, then the second prototype will be released as the iPhone 4GS.

  • HT1212 I found an iphone over one year ago. Its locked with a passcode. I kept waiting for the owner to call it. They never did. I went to ATT store today, they put a new sim card in it. but now itunes needs the passcode to reset it to factory settings.

    I found an iphone over one year ago. Its locked with a passcode. I kept waiting for the owner to call it. They never did. I went to an AT&T store today, they put a new sim card in it. and told me to go home, log on to itunes, and restore the phone to "factory settings".But itunes says the phone is locked and it needs the passcode to reset it to factory settings.
    Any workaround? Or, am I doing something wrong here?
    Thanks so much.
    Joe

    Sounds like you may be the owner of a new phone!  If you don't need or want it and no one claims it you probably can sell it. Check eBay to see what the going rate is.
    You are to be commended for at least trying to find the owner. Many wouldn't. 
    Best.

  • When will I receive my I phone 6 case which i ordered along with the Iphone6 ?As per the website it says october . How long is the wait time for the Iphone 6 case?

    When will I receive my I phone 6 case which i ordered along with the I phone 6 ?As per the website it says October. How long is the wait time for the I phone 6 case?

    While we have no idea within this Community Forum how long you would have to wait for your iPhone 6 Case, I can tell you that there would not be a "general" answer of value.  Like any product that is available in different materials and colors, the inventory varies based on what you have specifically ordered.  For example, I visited an Apple Store on the day after the iPhone 6 became available and was interested in the "Midnight Blue" Leather"  Apple iPhone 6 Case.  The store had plenty of all the other colors, but that specific case and color had sold out that morning. 

  • Is there a way to passcode lock my iPhone without waiting for the preset idle time?

    Is there a way to passcode lock my iPhone without waiting for the preset time?
    My iPhone is set up to require a passcode after 15 minutes of idle time. Normally, this setting works best for me. However, there are times when I would like to lock it immediately, without waiting for the 15 minutes of idle time to pass. Is there a way to do that easily, without changing my settings? I know that I can click the power button to immediately kill the screen, but that just defaults to "slide to open" with no passcode required.
    Just to clarify, the idea is to leave my 15 minute setting, since this is the way I like it 98% if the time. I'm just wondering if, let's say I am resting my phone down while a curious person is around, I can quickly pass code lock it, much like I could just click the power button to put it to sleep.

    Unfortunately, my phone doesn't ask for the passcode when I do this (just slide-to-open). I've searched settings, but I don't see any way to set it up to require the passcode after the screen is locked with the power button.
    Do you remember how you set your iPhone up to achieve this?

  • IPhone sync stuck at Step 5 of 5 waiting for the changes to be applied

    iPhone sync stuck at Step 5 of 5 waiting for the changes to be applied

    For me it was stuck. So with the iphone/pad etc plugged in I was having the failings at the last step.
    I got it to work by unticking "Sync this ****** over wifi" and onnly ticking"manually manage music and videos"
    Maybe it gets confussed and I thought I was managing it anyway.
    Anyway - that worked for me, literally did the ticks. Off it goes, now adding 1500+ tunes

  • Should I buy the iPhone 4S or to wait for the coming model?

    I am the owner of a iPhone 4 and I'm thinking to buy the 4S but I don't know what to do... Should I wait for the coming model? I see it's not that different than the iPhone 4.
    Thanks guys!

    There are some major differences between the 4 and th 4S. The 4S has a faster processor, better camera, Siri, speech-to-text. Whether any of those things are important to you is something only you can determine. If you are happy with your current phone and none of those things matter to you, you should wait. Personally, I found the features of the 4S made it well worth the upgrade from the 4 for me.

  • Do I wait for my iPhone 5 to be shipped to me or is it the other way around and I need to ship it to them?

    I put my iPhone threw the replacement option today and I'm just so confused because I'm not sure if the new iPhone will be shipped to me first and I'll ship my cracked and non-replaceable iPhone back to them or if it is the other way around, I do note that it is a cracked screen (shattered) and it still has the Apple's Limited Warranty still on it. But I know I dont have Apple Care+ so I did pay the $229 plus tax for the iPhone to be replaced. Just not too sure if the iphone will be shipped to me first or vise versa. PLEASE HELP ME!!
    Its currently stuck on this, is this an idication that I have to ship mine first?

    You will need to send the phone. You can call apple care to set this up. They can send to you first but it does require a hold onn your card for the full ammount of the new phone untill they get the old one back. Again apple care can help with this.
