What would be better a new iPhone 3gs or a used iPhone 4?
what would be better a new iPhone 3gs or a used iPhone 4? The iphone would be 2yrs old and belonged to my sister. I am weighing my iphone options, help!
I'm sorry I should have been more specific with the situation. I currently own an iPhone 3gs which is still under warranty, I am going to get a new one because I am having some issues with the phone. However, my sister offered me her old Iphone 4 if i want it. Now I am not sure whether I should take her 2 year old iphone 4 or just keep the 3gs I get from the apple store...???

I want To transfer my Old andriod whats app data in my New Iphone 5
can Any body help me how can i transfer my old andriod whats app data in My New Iphone 5 ?
Unless the app is available from the iTunes app store, you are out of luck. There are many Android apps that are not available on the iPhone and likewise many iPhone apps not avaliable on Android.

what if i change to new iphone can the apps & contacts been copied to my new devise use the same icloud/apple id?
Yes, they can ... best way ist to backup your current device with iTunes and setting up the new iPhone from this backup ... iTunes will ask you this when you connect your new one for the first time ...

What to do when my new iphone 5 came damaged, is missing pieces, and apple won't help me?!
I am EXTREMELY disappointed in Apple. I preordered my iPhone 5 as soon as it was available, but did not receive it in the mail until yesterday. I excitedly met the UPS man and ran inside to open my new phone. Upon opening the package, I found that my iPhone is damaged (with dings on the front/side - and it is a white/silver iPhone, not black), the SIM card is missing, AND the earbud/mic/remote is missing!! I spent who knows how long on the phone with Apple customer service, only for them to tell me that my best option is to go to an Apple store and they'll switch it out for me. I was told that they will hold an iPhone identical to mine so that it is ready to go when I get there. I called both of the Apple stores "near" me (both an hour away) and neither would hold a phone for me - so I called later in the day when I was actually able to make it to a store, and they were out of stock. I was told that I should make an appointment with a Genius - but then I would have to come back later to get a phone. Like I said, this is not a short drive for me. I was then told that I could go online after 10 p.m. and reserve a phone, without paying, and pick it up in the store. It seems that is not the case. I have to either open a new account or see if my AT&T account is eligible for an upgrade - which it isn't, because I used that when I originally ordered the phone. So now I'm stuck with a damaged phone with missing pieces that I can't use, and I can't seem to get anybody to easily help me get a new one. I'm about to just call and ask for a full refund and go buy the Galaxy S3 that my parents love so much. They asked me what was so great about the iPhone 5... and I really don't know what to say.
Now what do I do? I'm tired of dealing with people over the phone who won't help me. And the Apple Retail stores aren't being very helpful themselves. Ugh!!!Nice try! Take a hike.

What won't charge your new Iphone 3GS?
So - I have two issues here.
1) The car hook up in my BMW - It will not charge the 3GS.
2) The Mili battery pack - also not compatible
Now, I have heard stories that there are SOME 3GS that work fine... and some don't. Is that the case? Or is that a big pile of tech turd making you feel like it's your fault, and stopping you from demanding a new one?
I am getting ready to demand a new one.
Thoughts?There are many reports of the 3GS being incompatible with BMW car hook ups. Here's the result of a search:
http://discussions.apple.com/search.jspa?threadID=&q=BMW&objID=f1333&dateRange=l ast90days&userID=&numResults=15
I doubt if it is your specific iPhone that is at fault.

what do you do when new iphone 3 will not accept SIM card which it has been doing since I bought it 6 weeks ago but now suddenly No Service and will not recognise SIM. Had this trouble on initial start up, took a 3 hour conversation with Apple USA to get it going. Can't connect to itunes because it won't recognise the SIM. Cannot remember what we did to get it going last time as it took so long and we did so many different things. Any suggestions other than put it in the bin!
First, though the phone is "new" to you, it really is a 5 year old piece of equipment. Ancient by current standards.
Have you obtained a replacement SIM from your carrier? -
I purchased a new chip but my iPhone 4S will not recognize the new chip so what do I need to do?
okay from reading posts it seems if I transfer my backed up info from my old comp to the new one and erase my dad's phone's back up i could reset my phone and it would transfer all my old data back onto the phone, be linked to the new computer and i could proceed. Where do i find the backed up info from my phone?

I have added an iPhone 4 to my household and the wifi in our home no longer works for my iPhone 4S or the new iPhone 4. Both will connect to the wifi, but we are not able to view anything i.e. google just runs circles, app store just runs loading, gps on maps not found just runs? I have check all wifi issues with ATT&T, Verizon network all believe that it is the phones? I am confused as my 4S worked fine before adding the 4 to the mix....any thoughts are hits to what to do
Have you rebooted your home router?

New Iphone baseband firmware has killed all GPS location software.
Are apple aware that the new iphone modem firmware update has effectively broken the iphone 3gs as far as GPS location goes. I have looked around on various forums and on the tomtom forum there are lots of people in the same situation.
http://www.tomtomforums.com/tomtom-iphone-navigator/22273-ios4-1-4-upgrade-no-gp s-fix-iphone-3g.html
I have not seen evidence of apple acknowledging the issue...so dont know if they are even aware of the problem.I'm getting very interested in GPS problems across the iPhone range. Ive got a 3GS and the GPS satellite fix stopped working completely recently. A fix identified using jailbreak and an ssh terminal tells me a good proportion of these problems are with locationd, the gps process in the iPhone, or more accurately, I think that it's possible for some of the data this process uses to become corrupted; the "fix" involves stopping the process and deleting the data it uses. On restart, locations is forced to rebuild the data, and everything then works.
I suspect this is true across the iPhone range - and worse, I think that the backup function in iTunes actually backs up the bad data. Thus, when you restore from backup, you actually put the problem back in! Either that, or GPS cache data isnt deleted when the iphone is restored.
What we need is an option in iTunes, or the iPhone settings, to clear GPS ephemeris and related data down and restart locationd: this will save apple a fortune in support at genius bars, as I reckon everyone who is getting a replacement is just getting a reblanked refurbished iPhone with no hardware fixes - they could be turning them around in the back of the stores!
We need to get some group pressure together to get an answer out of apple on this really - they do seem to have an approach which has much in common with the way the UK banks were dealing with overdraft fees - if you complained, they refunded just to keep you quiet and make sure you didn't shout. If this issue is an underlying gps driver or application demon issue, they should give us a way to work around the issue. -
What is the diffrence with the new iphone 3g
what is the diffrence with the new iphone 3g
The 3G came out last July, nearly a year ago. The one that came out then is theoretically the same as now. The big additions over the first generation iPhone were 3G and a true GPS receiver.

Hey John,
If you are having an issue with emojis on your iPhone, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
iOS: Troubleshooting emoji issues - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Happy computing,

What a horrible way to treat customers. I was due for updates on my phones and thought I should maybe check some other prices but have been with Verizon for 20 yrs so ended up there. I got 2 new IPhones 5s and the wife couldn’t decide what she wanted so she stayed with old phone but this locked me into a new 2 yr contract . Within a wk one of the new iPhones started turning on and of like 10 –15 times a day. Wk 2 it turned off and would not turn on again . It was my sons who was in college at the time so we talked and he took it in to a Verizon store where he was told I need to come in since the account was in my name. He was away from home , Verizon could see on account it was his phone they said it was not abused, they could not even turn it on , they sold me the phone give him another phone maybe even a loaner till he gets another. So now I need to go to store and explain to 3 different people this is my phone and my son has it and I need a new one. what a waste of time after about 2 hrs and talking to different people and yes they said there were notes on his account from other person he had talked to from different store. So I finally walk out with a receipt in hand and being told I would have a new phone in a couple days. As I sat in my vehicle thinking this is stupid I looked at my receipt and noticed it said droid on it so back into Verizon I went. The salesman said that’s what your son has on his account. My son had activated a friends old phone so he has one since VERIZON REFUSED to give him one. Another hr 3 people and yes they can see he had a new iPhone and notes on it from other store. Sometimes sorry just doesn't do it. I was now late for a appointment . Now I walk out and have been told I will get a new iPhone in the mail in about 2 wk Yes 2 wks again I bought it there just give me a new one and you send old one back. I will also get a new droid that I have to send back because they said they cant cancel it . In about 3 days I get the Droid and sent it back Verizon mistake and a waste of my time . After waiting over 2 wks and not receiving a new iPhone back to Verizon I went . I am now bitter at Verizon after doing 20 yrs of business with them. 3 people 1 hr later I was told it got delivered to my post office . I got the tracking num called the post office and they say o yes that was the droid. Go back in to Verizon another hr of explaining I walk out being told I will get a new iPhone in a couple of days, We’ll see . Once again I got the phone in your store just give me a new one . Do you realize how much of my time you have wasted ? do you care? O what is Your Policy ? How many Billion did you make last year ? I am Locked into a new 2 yr contract . Why don’t you just release me ? After 20 yrs do you think I will ever renew my contract ?
Simple process. If an iPhone go to the Apple Store and not Verizon
the phone from Verizon will be a refurbished device and not new unless under the 14 day worry free guarantee
good luck -
I am soo unhappy! Everyday I am discovering what I cannot do on my iPhone 5s! Since September 20, I purchased the new 5s and iPad mini with Wi-fi and I have had nothing but trouble. I cannot use my iPad, it is worthless! My old iPad 3 worked better which I traded it in for. I cannot get Wi-fi to work properly on either device. I have to be standing next to my router for it to work. My router works fine and worked fine with my old iPad 3. The list is endless...... I am on my 3rd replacement for iPhone and still experiencing problems.
-Facetime just starts without me promting it
-I have almost every call I make drop
-Siri does not register with my voice, very frustrating!
-I have a new car and the 5s will not let me use my console phonebook favorites shortcuts
-I cannot attach a photo from a relpy or an email for that matter. WTH??? Why??
-I cannot scroll to the bottom of a page without playing "spin the wheel" and have the pop up screen come up and then accidentally hit private mode then miss phone calls. But I can scroll to the top with a couple of tries. I have small fingers so why is this so user unfriendly?
-My cellular connection notice keeps coming on? Why? Both on iPhone iPad
-My Wi-fi does not work I have to be standing next to my router for it to work for both my iPhone 5s and iPad mini. My router works fine and worked fine with my old iPad 3.
-My icloud is not saving my new phone numbers so each time I have received a new phone numbers get LOST!
- I now cannot look anything up while on the phone AND NO ONE TOLD ME THIS BEFORE I PURCHASED THIS PHONE! I really have needed it through all the time I have been on the phone with either Apple or Sprint! A total of of at least 40hours and I am not exaggerating!
-I have to switch to too many pages to write emails, texts or even phone calls! Not as easy as 1,2,3. WHY?
-Merging on iCloud can erase numbers be careful! What a nice option I thought. As my Android/Gmail basically threw up on my new iPhone. So I had multiple contacts of the same person. E.G. 5 Joe Smoo. All listed separately, one was an email,2nd was FB, 3rd Home phone, 4th cell and 5th fax or listed as other. Well, if someone has 2 cell phones or emails and you merge then iCloud takes the privilege of ERASING one of the 3s or contacts. Also, some of them were listed as other and that too got ERASED. Thank you iCloud! I only discovered this after merging at least 20 contacts because I was told I had to to manually go into my phonebook to try and fix the quadruplet or more names on my phonebook.
-There is more believe me! BTW I have been pretty dedicated to Apple (macbook, iMac and iPad), only I had an Android phone because my carrier didn't have iPhone & I did not want AT&T. This is turning me into sour grapes or should I say apples!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please respond if you have similar problems or any because no one else seems to be experiencing such problems as I have. If you are an Apple employee then please have someone contact me.Dude or hot-spur,
Not fishy at all!!!! You really think I would have taken any more of my time to post a bogus rant? We'll no, it is unfortunately all true. I want to hear from anyone who is experiencing such problems not anyone else that wants to put there two cents in. I really don't need anymore hate or negativity. Just people's experiences because I feel like I am the only one having so many problems. Thank you
Yes, I have had some unfortunate bad luck to have so many problems at the same time, but some of them are just things you cannot do on the new OS.
Thank you again
