Why has no patch been made for the January update?

After that December/January update my phone began DRAINING my battery.  My WIFI connection is horrible even when I am sitting next to my router.  The phone just powers off on it's own, my touch screen is horrible.....
All these issues have been commented on by bloggers, magazines, websites, yet Verizon has not fized the issue.
Has anyone heard about a patch for this? 

    Danni111972,
I want to make sure that you are having a good working device. There is no info on if there is an update for the issues that you are having. Have you been able to back up the device and perform a factory reset since the update come into the phone? Please keep us posted.

  • Has a solution been found for the Treo 755p FREEZING issue?

    I have been an owner of a Treo 755p (Verizon Wireless) for 18 months now, and have had freezing issues since day one. I love the phone and don't want to get rid of it, but the freezing issue I think are getting more frequent, and I am at the end of my rope. I have been trying to hold out to see if the Treo Pro would finally come to Verizon Wireless, but if I can't resolve the freezing (10-15 seconds) issue I might upgrade to a Windows 6.1 phone.
    Has there been any patches or scenarios released on how to fix this?
    I have no 3rd party software installed, and it has the latest updates.
    PLEASE HELP SAVE ME FROM MURDERING MY TREO!!!

    If there is something in the backup folder, in your username folder on the PC, that is causing an issue we need to rename the backup folder and hard reset the Treo.
    Go to http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=887 and follow the directions to do a hard reset. Next before you hotsync your data back over you will need to rename your backup folder, to do that go here;
    XP
    C:\program files\palm or palm one\[hotsync username]\ and rename your backup
    folder to backup.old
    Vista
    Start-->documents\Palm OS Desktop\[hotsync username]\ and rename your backup
    folder to backup.old
    Then hotsync to your current hotsync name and all your contacts, calendar,
    tasks, and memos will come back over.
    Show file extensions for XP or Vista
    XP
    If you can not view file extensions on your PC I would like you to open a
    folder go to Tools-->Folder Options--> View (tab) and under show hidden
    files and folders uncheck hide file extensions for known file types.
    Vista
    Open control Panel go to Folder Options--> View (tab) and under show hidden
    files and folders uncheck hide file extensions for known file types.

  • Has a solution been found for the battery life problem after the Galexy S5 update?!

    Andriod System and Andriod OS eating all of my battery causing in to drain 15%an hour after the update. Yes if have uninstalled all unnecessary apps and disable everything I can. Has a solution been found yet? I know Im not the only person who has had this problem from my research. Is there a fix?!

    DONT do a Factory Reset.  It will not help and is NOT necessary after an update.
    Your issues are multi phased.
    Go to Settings>Battery and see what is using the power
    1) with a new Operating system, your phone will optimize the system and apps, this in itself can take a few days.
    2) aside from that, you should try running the phone in Safe Mode as this loads only the core stuff necessary to run the phone.
    3) if Safe Mode works then it Is one of your Third Party Apps and would be easy to track down
    4) if it is one of the apps it is recommended that you uninstall them run the phone then start installing them slowly until you find the offending app
    5) If running in Safe mode has NOT worked, then you need to deep dive a bit more.  Open Settings>Apps and go to the ALL tab.  Go in and start Force Stopping apps such as Camera, Sync etc...(the last Samsung update the Camera was frozen and would drain the battery pretty fast)
    It is most likely a third party app causing the slowness.  As a last resort you can bring your phone to a Best Buy and go to the Samsung Kiosk or Booth inside the store.  These are manned by Samsung Employees and you would ask them to re flash your phone. They will plug it into their computer and load the software directly from their servers and not over the air.  This would be the cleanest install you can get on these phones but it may not fix the issue if Samsung coded part of it incorrectly or if the camera app is not updated and is incompatible with Lollipop which is causing it to run continuously. 

  • Why has snow leopard been removed for download

    I don't get Apple - they release a new OSx that can only be updated from Snow Leopard but in their amazing commercial wisdom remove the ability to buy Snow Leopard. That will increase the uptake of Mountain Lion - NOT! Anyway does anyone know how I can legally upgrade to Snow Leopard now? Thanks Apple always useful - your redundancy policy completely ***.
    N

    Klaus, are you suggesting that users should always upgrade right away?
    What I am suggesting is that users should always try to run the highest version of OS X that their particular Mac can run, not just for the 'extra features' but also for security reasons, i.e. available security updates, which Apple do not supply for outdated versions like Tiger or Leopard.
    Are they also supposed to call Apple directly?
    If they already have Snow Leopard they have no reason to call Apple!
    And what about those users who have Snow Leopard and want to upgrade, but don't have sufficient hardware to run Mountain Lion? Did they wait too long?
    That is a question of money. Not all of us can afford, or can see the necessity, of buying the latest MacBook, iMac or whatever. What our Mac did yesterday it will also do tomorrow! The 'built-in obsolescence' of a Mac used to be about 5 years, but is now only about two years or sometimes less. To replace a computer that often is, IMO, overkill, technically speaking, but it may appeal to rich fashion victims!

  • Why are apple charging for the January update

    I bought my ipod for Christmas. It's unfair that I'm now having to pay for applications that are free of charge 3 weeks later on new units. Had I have known then I would have waited. The apple store made no mention of any update at the time of purchase. Could someone from apple please advise if this will become free in the future or whether this is standard policy to charge recent customers immediately on release of software that is free to newer clients.

    Get used to it! Seriously, if you don't want to you don't have to pay for it, and right now you don't need to. The touch is not the iPhone. This seemingly obvious observation appears to have been missed by some. You must have access to the internet via Wi Fi (either at home or at a hotspot). So all those pretty icons of maps, weather, stocks are dead in the water unless you are connected (unlike the iPhone people who are always connected). If you really want a screen full of icons just set up an iTapPad page (see webapps) and then you can have up to 10 pages of icons chock full of webapps that you can access for free once connected to the internet, including maps, weather, and a Notes look-alike.
    Resident apps, those that sit on your touch and don't require a Wi Fi connection to function, will come from developers and some will possibly be free, but expect to pay for most. They will probably be downloaded through iTunes, and Apple will probably want a slice of the pie (pun intended) for the service.

  • Why has battery percentage been enabled for iPad and iPhone, but not iPod Touch?

    iPhones have had the option to enable the battery percentage reading in the top right corner of the screen since they came out, and iPads later got that ability.  Yet throughout their times, updates, and models, iPod Touch users never have had that option.  And that tiny battery icon can be deceiving.  That icon on my iPod Touch 5G looks like I have 50% left, yet I plug it in, and suddenly, its charging just with a red end, meaning 20% or less remaining.  Apple... PLEASE give iPod Touches the option to torn that percentage on at the top right corner of the screen, even if it's only to the nearest 5 percent, although one app I have tells me exact battery percentage, so iPods have that capability, just please put it in the settings!  I like the convenience of that reading at the top, rather than opening an app every time I need a battery reading!  PLEASE Apple, it's time to let us get the percent!  Also, adding a built-in FM Radio receiving antenna for on-the-go FM Radio support wouldn't be a bad idea in the next generation if iPod Touch!

    It can be added but it is inaccurate. Large fluctuation in % battery will be seen with load changes.

  • Why when i want to download a free app from app store it asks for my apple id and when i give my apple id it then says "this apple id has not yet been used in the itunes store". i dont even know what that means and it will this happen everytime?

    If you are within 14 days of purchase you can still return the iPhone and get the phone that suits your needs, however, I think you will find that no matter which phone you get the content provider will want to know how you are going to pay for future purchases. For Android phones it is Google, and they will certainly want to know.

    Photos from the Internet will not load correctly. I get white boxes with blue question marks inside. This has only been happening for the past 3 weeks so I'm not sure why it is happening.

    Yes - email & text work fine but when I use something like Google Images or search a blog with imbedded photos I get the empty white boxes with question marks.  If I click the question mark it opens the photo but I can't possibly do that for EVERY image on EVERY page I search!?!?!  I've rebooted the iPad & my wireless card several times but neither action helped.  Have any clue what I should do now?

  • Why has the "Job" movie been loading for the past 3 days?  I have a 10Mb Uverse Internet connection.

    Why has the "Job" movie been loading for the past 3 days?  I have a 10Mb Uverse Internet connection.movie

    It should not take more than 4 hr.   Is there any indication it is making process?  i.e.  When you click on it to play do you get a message like "Will be avialable in 2hr 34 min"?  Is that time changing?  I would cancel the download.  Restart ATV and then retry.  If it goes more than 4hr then there is an issue. 
    As another option you can always download the movie to your computer and use the iTuens menus to play it from your computer under the Computers icon.

  • HT2589 when I try and log in my i-tunes account or my app store account on my i-phone it says "this apple I.D has not yet been used on the i-tunes store" it gives me 2 optins "cancel" or "review" I press review, enter my bank details but they decline..why

    Hi can anybody help or advise me? I've recently bought the i-phone 4s, I've set up my apple I.D and password but everytime I try and log in it says "this apple I.D has not yet been used on the i-tunes store" I click "review" follow the instructions and agree to the terms and condition's, enter my bank details but it declines every time? I've tried both my accounts and its declined both, this stops me from logging in so I can't download anything for free or buy anything, my sister had the option of skipping the bank details part when she created her apple I.D and just enters her's when buying something, why do I not have that option?? And why is it declining my bank details...please HELP!!!!!

    The details I'm entering are correct, I choose visa as my card type, enter my card number, enter my expiry date and my last 3 digts on the reverse of the card, enter my address and zip code plus my home telephone number, click continue and it says "the payment method you have selected has been declined, please enter another payment method". I've lost count how many times I've tried, I've typed my details in slowly making sure I put them in properlly and it still declines it, I've even tried makeing a new apple I.D and when I get to the bank details part it declines it again so I am forced to press cancel and all details are not saved so its just like I'm hitting a brick wall, its ******* me off!!! I can't even download any of the free app's because to do so you must log in but when I do it says "this apple I.D has not yet been used in the i-tunes store" review my details and can't get past the bank details part. So doesn't log me in, I'm honestly out of ideas

  • I don't understand the thing you call live bookmarks never used it, and most forums I have used notify VIA E-mail not giving out my E-mail address information when a reply has been made to the thread in question.

    So how do I get notified of updates in this forum?

    My Question now is this, get an 8 core, then replace with 2 3.7 QUAD CHIPS, what would happen?
    I also noticed that the 8 core Mac Pro is 3.0 when in fact they do have a 3.4 8 core chip, so 2 =16? Or if correct, wouldn't you be able to replace a QUAD CHIP WITH THAT?  I;M SURE THEY ARE UO TO SOMETHING AS 1) WE HAVE SEEN NO AUDIO FPU OR PERHAPS I SHOULD CHECK OUT PC MAKERS WINDOWS machines for Sisoft Sandra "B-E-N-C-H-M-A-R-K-S" -
    SOMETHINGS UP AND AM SURE WE'LL ALL BE PLEASED, AS the mac pro      was announced Last year, barely made the December mark, then pushed to January, then February and now April.
    Would rather wait and have it done correct than released to early only to have it benchmarked in audio and found to be slower in a few areas- - - the logical part of my brain is wondering what else I would have to swap out as I am sure it would run, and fine for a while, then, poof....
