Will the verizon iphone get ios 5

since the verizon iphone is still behind on the ios which it has 4.2.8 instead of 4.3 will the verizon iphone get ios 5 while skipping 4.3 or will we get 4.3 while att gets ios 5

Don't hold your breath.  Let's face it... the Verizon iPhone is 2nd rate to the AT&T one.  Probably always will be one build behind... Heck,  based on what's happened so far and the cold shoulder that Apple gave it at the WWDC, I'm staring to think that Verizon won't even carry it any longer.  ("We have plenty of other options"... says Verizon.)
Ok, seriously though, if Verizon doesn't get iOS 5 with the rest of the country in the fall, a good chunk of the some 2.5 million Verizon iPhone users will either move back to AT&T or just give up on Verizon and join up with AT&T.  (myself being one of them.)  This is getting a bit ridiculous.  AND... iOS 4.3 contains MANY features and enhancements that we Verizon users STILL don't have.  Look it up if you have any doubts.  I'm sick of people saying that iOS 4.2.8 and iOS 4.3.3 are basically the same.  DUH... if they were the same they'd have the same build number.  Again people should look it up, before spreading propaganda.
And finally... based on everything that I've read, it does appear that Verizon will get iOS 5 at the same time as AT&T.  (There apparently is a beta out there for the CDMA iPhone of which developers can get.)  BUT, I'll believe it when I see it.

  • Will the ipad 2 get ios 7 ?

    will the ipad 2 get ios 7? and if it is supported should i download it !?

    While iOS 7 will be compatible, not all features will be available. Read the footnotes on this page:
    http://www.apple.com/ios/ios7/features
    Regards.
    Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Communities page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic, both in the relevant forums and in the Apple Knowledge Base, before you post a question.

    It did not say indeed. Do you always loudly announce your bowel-movements  to the world? I gather no.

    Yes, we all know that.

    Nope, it's the Refurbished iPad you can order there. There's no such thing as iPad 3 currently, unless you already own one.  The Refurbished iPad is NOT the same article, as it has an entirely different price.  Cuz it's refurbished. Even if it's not.
    It beats me how all those brand new factory-sealed objects became refurbished in an instant. Would've thought it would involve some sort of physical refurbishment process applied.  Must been done by the Higgs Boson. Or the fairies. Or Jesus.  Either case, it's a huge leap in technology - the miraculous mass-refurbishment!

  • HT1349 will the,Verizon, iPhone 4S be up-gradable to 4G?

    Will the, Verizon supplied, iPhone 4S be upgradable to 4G capabilities.

    No iPhone is upgradable at all. Software can not provide hardware functions that do not exist. The AT&T iPhone 4S was not 'upgraded' to a 4G phone. Only the indicator changed to bring it in line with the rest of the HSPA+ capable phones in the US market. The ITU defines HSPA+ as "4G". Verizon does not have an HSPA+ capable network.

  • Will the verizon iphone 5 work on any carrier worldwide

    I want to buy the verizon iphone 5 from USA but use it in Egypt, will it work?

    Once unlocked, it will work with any GSM carrier.
    It will also work on any carriers LTE network that supports the bands the device is designed for.
    Keep in mind there are no officially unlocked devices sold in the US.
    Also, warranty and support are only valid in the country of origin.

  • When is verizon iphones getting ios 4.3?

    I currently have ios 4.2.8 and i know at&t users have had ios 4.3 for a few months now. I was wondering when we were going to get ios 4.3 and if we will get ios 5 in the fall at the same time as everyone else.

    When Apple announces it.
    Anyone that does not is not permitted to share that information until it is officially released.

  • Home Share for the Verizon iPhone 4

    When will the Verizon iPhone 4 have this feature it has been 2 months since 4.3 was released for the ATT iPhone 4 and they received the mobile hotspot support we had early on but Apple failed to give us homeshare?

    Are you connected to the same wifi network as the computer you want to home share with?
    Have you gone under settings-iPod-home sharing and put in the apple id?
    Have you gone into iTunes and turned on home sharing in iTunes?

    For the same reason my car hasn't got in-dash satnav, leather upholstery or a six litre engine. Because that's how the manufacturer chose to make it. If you are unhappy with the specs, don't buy one.
    There is no information regarding any new iPhone.

  • PLZ PLZ ANYBODY were is the verizon iphone 4 wifi antenna (as in which one of the black little marks)

    I need help knowing this for my iphone drops the wifi and knowing were the antenna is could help thx :)

    To be honest, When the verizon iphone first came out, I thought it would be the most talked about event in the tech world but the further we get, the more we see how far back the verizon iphone really is.  I cancelled my att contract early, paid 375 dollars to do so and what do I get in return? an os that is sub standard and data that moves slower than my pet turtle, nick.
    Why are we not recieving the latest and greatest features to iOS? why do we still not have the nitro safari browser? and why can I test drive iCloud beta with all my other iOS and mac osx devices except for my verizon iphone? Yes, it's not entirely verizon's fault but as america's largest network, you would think vzn would take some kind of action to help bring it's customers what they deserve and are paying for.  ANY WHY DOES MY FRIEND WHO HAS AN ANDROID(GOD, I HATE THAT STUPID GREEN CHARACTER) GET TWICE THE DATA SPEEDS AS ME WHEN HE'S ALSO ON VERIZON??? I feel my data usage is being throttled. And if that's true, verizon  should really allow us out of our contracts without fee because I was not advised my data, which is already slow to start, would be slowed down even further because the carrier is worried their network might overload. This is how vzn handles avoiding ATT's woes? not by having a better network that can handle heavy volume? WOW WAS I MISLED. I can't believe im saying this but att is looking better and better everyday. Not to mention their new unlimited any mobile plan that could save me alot of money every month.
    At least, apple or vzn should issue a statement of some sort so their customers at least know what to expect in the near future regarding features and updates.

  • Is there any difference between the Verizon iPhone 4s and the AT

    I'm looking online at iPhone cases, and one is a "tough" case, meaning it has an inner silicone shell and a separate outer hard shell. But it claims it will not fit the Verizon iPhone 4s, but it will fit the AT&T iPhone 4s. Is there really anything different between the two?

    The  only difference is who you're giving your money to.
    If you are ordering a "tough case" from case-mate .com, which is what it sounds like, it will fit any 4s. It's just that they have them separated into different categories at the top so you have to specify which one you have to basically filter out the 3gs and other phone cases that wont fit yours. Any case that fits the AT&T iphone 4s will fit the verizon one.
    In my opinion though, you're much better off not getting a case mate case. I've gone through three of them in the last 8 months or so (I had an iPhone 4, and recently got a 4s but still used the same case)
    they are nice when you first get them, but the paint chips off, they scratch the steel band around your, and are made out of really cheap plastic and rubber and it shows. You're better off getting something like the otterbox commuter case (what im currently using and LOVE it) if youre set on having that inner rubber layer of protection.
