Would you replace a 3GS with a new 4S?

I own an iPhone 3GS and am quite happy with it. The battery lasts for almost two days, the voice quality is great and I have had no issues with it.
However, after updating to iOS 5.0 the phone feels much slower than before (the Diagnostic option in Settings->General->Information shows a few "Out of memory" logs) and i would not mind having a better camera in my phone (even though Camera+ helps a lot).
Would you buy a new iPhone 4S now or just wait for the new iPhone 5 to be released?.
I discarded the iPhone 4 because of the antenna problems and the low speaker volume.
Thanks a lot
PD: I don't care much about Siri since there is no Spanish support

No one here knows when the next iteration of the iPhone will be released, so there is no way to know how long you might have to wait for whatever will follow the 4S.  Only you can really decide how badly you want or need a new phone and how long you are willing to wait before getting one.

  • My lock button has stopped working will Apple replace my phone with a new one?

    I have an iPhone 5 which I got in January of 2013 it is now October 2013 and my lock button has stopped and the camera seems to be depixelating I think, would Apple replace the phone with a new iPhone, I haven't dropped it, it has no major dents or drop wounds. Also as a secondary question, if they do replace the phone do I get the charger cable ect? or are no accessories included ?

    No accessories, just a perfect Replacement iPhone 5 exactly like yours, same color, same GB, everything the same.

  • What would you replace an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro (256MB) with?

    Hi,
    I started a thread before asking whether I could replace a 256MB card with a 128MB card, even though the interface was a different shape.
    But, as I know so little about Macs and graphics card, it seems wiser to ask
    What would you replace an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro (256MB) with?
    The computer is user for photo editing and normal internet/email use.  The photo editing is done on Adobe Photoshop for professional treatment of photographs.
    The computer is a Power Mac G5 (1.6GHz) and budge is £80 / $120.
    Thanks in advance, Franc.

    Hi-
    Please check my recommendations in your other thread.
    Better options for the 9800 Pro are the Radeon 9800 XT, Geforce 6800 GT, Geforce 6800 Ultra, or if one has the money or finds a good deal, a Radeon X800 XT.
    For your budget and uses, the Geforce cards are a performance value buy.
    BTW, I have owned all of the cards, used all of the cards, and tested all of the cards.
    Graphics Cards- ATI and Nvidia
    See my testing pages starting here:

  • How do you close apps you hve looked at with the new software update?? You used to have to double click the home button and the apps would come up to delete bu that doesn't happen anymore.

    How do you close apps you hve looked at with the new software update?? You used to have to double click the home button and the apps would come up to delete bu that doesn't happen anymore.

    The apps in the multitaskbar should appear like pages on the whole display. To close them, just swipe from the bottom to the top. you can select single apps for closing, when you swipe them like you would swipe your homescreens.

  • Would you exchange this iphone for a new one?

    Having some issues and seriously considering exchanging my new 32GB 3GS for a 16GB version. I have 2 weeks left in my trial period. My only fear is that I get one that is even worse.
    Are these concerns major enough to do the switch?
    CURRENT CONS:
    1) Keyboard is sometimes unresponsive for a few seconds...occasionally pauses during texting/emailing and then spits out several letters all at once
    2) Occasionally receiving duplicate emails of everything....also, every so often it says my username/password are incorrect
    3) I notice that applications sometimes open accidentally/randomly?
    4) Soft earpiece volume (symptom of the 3GS itself?)
    CURRENT PRO's:
    1) Battery life seems pretty decent, compared to some of the horror stories I am reading about on here
    2) Haven't dropped a call yet (over 2 week trial period), though one caller said they couldn't hear me very well
    Thoughts? Thanks....

    It could be a defective iPhone upon receiving. It could be application glitches and may be resolved by a restore or Clean Restore. If you used a backup from a 3G to 3GS there have been known issues from this. It could be some 2.2.1 to 3.0 applications you downloaded and there are many issues from that as well.
    It's better to delete all your applications and redownload them through the iTunes PC and have no applications on the iPhone and reinstall them from a clean installation.
    2) Occasionally receiving duplicate emails of everything....also, every so often it says my username/password are incorrect
    As the previous poster have said, it could be more than one email account or an incorrect setup of your e-mail account which I recommend deleting all your email accounts and add them again.
    3) I notice that applications sometimes open accidentally/randomly?
    It could be a 3GS software glitch or an application glitch. It could be the application when installed by the computer or downloaded directly to the 3GS model was installed incorrectly or poorly programmed. You could try uninstalling that application or all applications and reinstall them all. Sometimes a Clean Restore helps.
    4) Soft earpiece volume (symptom of the 3GS itself?)
    Could be a defective headset and you have 30 days to replace the headset with a new one. Another flaw is if you twisted it around or it got knotted up, it can damage the wires and make them useless. After 30 days (unless AT&T has changed their purchase policy) you pay $30 for a new one but I think they only serve the original 3G headsets and not the 3GS headsets for replacements.
    1) Battery life seems pretty decent, compared to some of the horror stories I am reading about on here
    As far as this goes, the battery life varies between usage of applications actually. If you spend a good amount of time playing an High Definition game like Star Defense or an Internet High Definition game like Aurora Feint II: Arena Daemons (Don't get the Beginning one. That one *****.), that would definitlely speed drain your iPhone.
    2) Haven't dropped a call yet (over 2 week trial period), though one caller said they couldn't hear me very well
    It could be a tower you are associating with at a call that needs to be reported as an issue. There have been a few towers I reported a while back in my area along DC and Northern Virginia that constantly have calling issues (well data for me the most part) and they may fix it.

  • Do I have all the parts to replace my HDD with a new SSD on my Macbook (late 2008)?

    Hey everyone, I am trying to figure out if have all the parts to replace my hdd with a new ssd on my macbook (late 2008 aluminum).
    I just bought a crucial mx100 SSD and plan on replacing my mac HDD. I have the appropriate screwdrivers, and a bootable OSX on a usb drive. I also purchased a sabrent usb 2.0 to sata/ide hard drive adapter.
    How do I replace and install OSX on my new SSD?
    From what I read here are the steps I'm planning on taking.
    1) Detach the old HDD
    2) Attach new SSD.
    3) Turn on computer and use the bootable usb drive to install OS X.
    Does that work, I think I read somewhere about maybe formatting the SSD before I can use the bootable usb. Any input or help would be awesome. Thanks.
    I'd prefer to do a clean install of yosemite and not carbon copy my old HDD

  • [AS] CS3- Find any text with style, then replace that text with a new applied fill color.

    I am trying to find the simplest way in cs3 to find any text with style, then replace that text with a new fill color. I can find text and change text. I can find a style and change it to a new style. I can't seem to find a style and change the applied fill color. I do not want to change the properties of the style, just the applied color. Yes, I want the + sign, for now. I know, why not update the style, I am not allowed to. Any help would be great. Since the search is not available, I need a new response.
    Thanks.

    You can work around the bug by just doing a find, then looping through the<br />results, changing the color one at a time. It'll be a fraction slower, but<br />should do the trick:<br /><br />tell application "Adobe InDesign CS3"<br />    set find text preferences to nothing<br />    set properties of find text preferences to {applied paragraph style:"The<br />name"}<br />    set theFinds to find text document 1<br />    repeat with i from 1 to count of theFinds<br />        set properties of item i of theFinds to {fill color:"Replace color"}<br />    end repeat<br />end tell<br /><br />The bug is fixed in CS4, BTW.<br /><br />-- <br />Shane Stanley <[email protected]><br />AppleScript Pro Florida, April 2009 <a href=http://scriptingmatters.com/aspro>

  • How do I replace the organiser with a new one

    How do I replace the organiser with a new one

    The problem is to understand your question (or your two questions : do you both mean the same thing ?)
    An answer to Hatstead question would help.
    1 - Do you really mean using another software to organize your workflow ?
    2 - Do you mean using other softwares based on folders rather than databases ?
    3 - Or do you mean working with different catalogs ?
    If you don't want to use the Organizer, it's not possible to 'delete' it, but it is simple not to use it.
    Most other organizing solutions include the choice of selecting PSE editor as the external editor
    There are various solutions depending on your platform : Windows, Mac, Linux...
    It's important to know if you prefer the folders or database organization to suggest possible solutions.

  • Is it a good idea to update my iphone 3GS with the new io6 software?  I did it with my iphone 3G and the io4 software ruined it really!

    Is it a good idea to update my iphone 3GS with the new io6 software?  I did it with my iphone 3G and the io4 software ruined it really!

    Your plan is generally OK, but I would suggest a different approach, since you're so frazzled by it.
    1. Update iPhoto first; check and backup the iPhoto Library;
    2. Upgrade to Yosemite; This will prompt you to migrate to Photos, but you don't have to do it, so don't!
    3. iPhoto 9.6.1 will remain in your Applications folder and you can continue to use it;
    4. Learn more about Photos, it's features and how iCloud Photo Library really works (for example, once you turn it on, you won't need to download manually);
    5. When you do feel you know enough about Photos, only then launch it to migrate your photos; after migration your iPhoto Library remains fully functional, in case you want to revert to using iPhoto, so that part should not worry you.
    Thet biggest issue you have is the small amount of free space. You might want to address tha first, or locate your new Photos Library on an external drive as well, and only move it to your local drive when it's been optimized (or keep it on an external).

  • How do you manually manage podcasts with the new iTunes?

    Like the subject line says: How do you manually manage podcasts with the new iTunes?
    With the previous version of iTunes, when I plugged in my iPod, I could select the iPod, select podcasts, and manually delete episodes. With the new iTunes, I can't select individual episodes when looking at my iPod through iTunes. Is my only option to Sync? If so, why is that my only option?
    This question probably has a simple answer, and I'm just not seeing it.

    Rock,
    I think I figured out a way to do what you want to do - which is the same way that I use Itunes with my Ipod. (My Itunes libary was destroyed last year so I can no longer auto synch my Ipod as I would lose thousands of songs).
    Funnily enough, I discovered this new way of manually moving podcasts while trying to figure out what cpragman was trying to say (I never could - he must be smarter than me, as I couldn't get his method to work).
    1. Open up your Itunes in your regular Library view. Choose Pocasts from the left hand side (either in the sidebar if you have that enabled, or from the little "radio" icon if you don't.)
    2. Mouse to the podcast you want to place on your Ipod.
    3. Right-click it.  A long menu will pop up.
    4. Move to the "Add to Playlist" option.  As you hover, all your playlists will be visible. But at the very top will be the name of your Ipod itself (whatever you named it originally).  Choose THAT name, and voila! That podcast will now copy to your Ipod and be easily available when you disconnect.
    A nice feature of this method is that you can shift-click several podcasts at once and do the same thing, and all your selected podcasts will copy over (if you're like me and update your Ipod only every few weeks).
    Hope this helps - let me know if it works for you!

    I usually just write over the file with the same file name, often with DVDSP closed.
    If you're doing an m2v file and the duration has changed, just go the the end of the clip in the track and drag it right as far as you can. Otherwise it'll replace the asset but use the previous version's duration.

  • How can I replace the Portal with completely new Flash website?

    Can I replace the Portal with completely new Flash website? My customer do not want the JSP UI. Instead, he wants a completely new designed Flash site. Is it possible to do it? How can I deploy a new portal to cover the current one?

    If you have a look at some of the code examples which do the equivalent of site maps, you could in theory replace the whole portal desktop with some sort of Flash framework which reads the user's role structure at run time.
    I think it is useful to remember that the SAP portal is primarily a business application launchpad. It does that very well. Trying to make it into a Flash launchpad will be challenging.

    What ADSL modem do you advise to use with my new airport extreme? I have tried a basic TP-Link ADSL2+  modem and I can't get the configuration working. What modem does Apple recommend?

    Ok well I have looked around some more and have found this to be the most up to date official response to my question as seen at this link here:
    http://www.actiontec.com/support/product_details.php?pid=41#q27
    Can I Bridge the Actiontec MI424WR router that Verizon provided, when I signed up for FiOS service?
    The MI424WR does not have a bridging option, and neither Verizon nor Actiontec support attempting to bridge it.
    The desire to bridge the MI424WR is based on a misunderstanding that it is a modem as well as a router. Actiontec does produce DSL Gateways that have a Transparent-Bridging option, which bypasses or disables the router function and allows the Gateway to act simply as a DSL modem, when it is enabled. Many consumers do not realize that with FiOS, the ONT (typically outside the home) is the device that handles changing the FiOS signal from Fiber to either Ethernet or Coax, and that the Router is just a Router, and if it was bridged or bypassed, it would be a device without a function. For most Verizon FiOS customers their service would completely stop if the MI424WR was bridged, because the Video on Demand service is dependent on it to work.
    If your ONT is connected to the Actiontec MI424WR router via Coax, the MI424WR is required due to the Coax connection. But if the ONT is connected to the MI424WR via Ethernet, then in most cases some other router can be substituted for the MI424WR, and it can be removed."
    So it looks like I will be calling Verizon support to see about getting the Ethernet connection installed and getting another modem...
