new firmware for iphone/ipod touchwhat is iso4?
Upgraded my Australian 3GS phone purchased from the Apple store. I like the app folder feature and email threading, hate that I've lost the double button tap and undecided about multi tasking. Noticeably slower to fire up apps, email content lost on some messages and the iPod app keeps crashing..... Bonus.Don't know if it's been posted before but iOS4 in Australia is available for download now. I've given the upgrade through iTunes a kick in the guts on my 3Gs. Looking forward to a smooth and bug-free upgrade.
What Apple do really well is re-invent things and make them better.If i was apple, id sell up, and become an advertising/marketing company. its really what they are good at!
Read some of the pervious posts. Until Carriers catch up, it will only be over wifi. And why would you need to carry a router around? Seriously! Just want to jump onboard the slag bandwagon do we?but apples way of video calling is bullshit you can only video call through wifi because im going to carry a router with me everwhere to video call ayy? haha
did you do what it said and reboot? Also make sure your phone isn't connected when you install itunes again.what the fuck, i went to download the new update, but it said install the new iTunes. so i did. now i plug my phone into the computer and it says:
"iTunes requires a newer version of apple mobile device support"
then it tells me to uninstall itunes and re-install it. halp???
I guess it's a good start to do as it says. If not, then http://support.apple.com/kb/index?p...ch&locale=en_US&q=apple mobile device support delivers plenty of results.what the fuck, i went to download the new update, but it said install the new iTunes. so i did. now i plug my phone into the computer and it says:

I ended up plugging back into iTunes, backing the iPhone up, returning the iPhone back to factory specifications (ie wipe it clean) and then restoring the iPhone, picked a nice background and the universe is at peace again.Noticeably slower to fire up apps, email content lost on some messages and the iPod app keeps crashing..... Bonus.
It took me about an hour to an 2hours(was rather pissed) from plugging it in downloading it and installing it.Anyone had issues updating to OS4? Doing it now and it seemed to fly through the back up process (although I wasn't paying too much attention), 3 hours later and I am still on the first bar of the "updating iphone software" popup.
Did this take for ever for other people. Just a bit worried that this has stalled on me.
Whilst my upgrade didn't take that long, I did consider pulling the pin after an hour or so of it just sitting there. After a while longer, all of a sudden the bar started moving again and it finished normally. Losing email content on an OS upgrade is rather home brand.... I'm surprised that the upgrade process is so shoddy.after about 6 hours, I cracked it and pulled the USB as the upgrade hadn't moved. Funny my backup went really quickly which is what other seem to be complaining about.
Plugged it back in, hit restore then back up and surprise surprise I am on OS4. Not sure what happened, but it seems I am uptodate now.
Seems to be working fine except I lost a couple of photos, music and my emails (which are on my computer anyway).
Ok - so who's gunna take the bait on the old "Mac vs PC" argument?Interesting you guys had issues. The total process (download and install) took about 15 minutes on my mac with ADSL, but mum conned me into doing hers on her PC and it took almost an hour.
Hah, I swear to god it wasn't meant like that, it was a genuine comparison between MY computers out of curiosity.Ok - so who's gunna take the bait on the old "Mac vs PC" argument?
Nobody? Good, because I'll temp ban anyone that derails this thread with that particular topic.
Our graphics people update their iPhones quickly on Macs but waste the rest of the day patting themselves on their backs. Our admins take forever to update their iPhones on their windows PCs but that happens in the background so they keep working. The techos run Unix and use iPhones as a control panel for their "really smart" phones. Oh yes, techos write their own code so they look down upon those who choose to update anything from a stink'n music app. I just pay the phone bills.Ok - so who's gunna take the bait on the old "Mac vs PC" argument?
