Voltron Posted June 23, 2010 Report Posted June 23, 2010 That doesn't look flat! Nice, Jeff. Tell us how it is. I am truly uninspired to make the leap from 3GS.
VPI Posted June 23, 2010 Report Posted June 23, 2010 So far it seems like a tiny little iPad. Screen is excellent and I have full signal here in the office.
VPI Posted June 23, 2010 Report Posted June 23, 2010 Dinny, you need one so we can do the Face Time conferences while playing Words with Friends on the iPads.
VPI Posted June 23, 2010 Report Posted June 23, 2010 I wish it had a Video app like the iPad instead of keeping them in iPod. Video quality is great. I also cannot get tap-a-talk to work. just keep getting communication errors.

VPI Posted June 23, 2010 Report Posted June 23, 2010 No Yellow spot for me. I am really impressed with the AT&T service so far. Full bars at the office, at each subway station and in my house. First Speedest, done while in a Subway station, returned 1468 Kbps download.
The Monkey Posted June 23, 2010 Report Posted June 23, 2010 Any dropped calls or office or No Service messages, Jeff?
VPI Posted June 23, 2010 Report Posted June 23, 2010 I have not actually used it as a phone yet. Here she is with her big brother.
LarsMarkelson Posted June 23, 2010 Report Posted June 23, 2010 iPhone 4 Loses Reception When You Hold It By The Antenna Band? Yowza. Bad news for people who go caseless.
blessingx Posted June 23, 2010 Report Posted June 23, 2010 I have not actually used it as a phone yet. Here she is with her big brother. Nice. It seems the reported removal of gap between external glass and display is so apparent it shows in photos. Icons "on glass" as it were.
The Monkey Posted June 23, 2010 Report Posted June 23, 2010 iPhone 4 Loses Reception When You Hold It By The Antenna Band? Yowza. Bad news for people who go caseless. That doesn't sound good. One of the early reviews mentioned a software bug that showed poor signal when it actually was strong, but those examples look like the reception is taking a hit.
penger Posted June 23, 2010 Report Posted June 23, 2010 That doesn't sound good. One of the early reviews mentioned a software bug that showed poor signal when it actually was strong, but those examples look like the reception is taking a hit. I think this has to do with using the least congested freq even if it is not the strongest.
blessingx Posted June 23, 2010 Report Posted June 23, 2010 Anyone getting one today/tomorrow have an iPad camera kit to see if a digital signal can be extracted?
The Monkey Posted June 23, 2010 Report Posted June 23, 2010 I think this has to do with using the least congested freq even if it is not the strongest. Maybe, maybe not. The point is that this newly-reported issue appears to actually adversely affect the reception.
VPI Posted June 23, 2010 Report Posted June 23, 2010 I can't make signal change no matter how I touch the metal antenna.
blessingx Posted June 23, 2010 Report Posted June 23, 2010 I can't make signal change no matter how I touch the metal antenna. Which body parts did you use?
VPI Posted June 23, 2010 Report Posted June 23, 2010 You would like to know. I still can't get tapatalk to work. All I get is the loading screen and then communication errors over and over again.
n_maher Posted June 23, 2010 Author Report Posted June 23, 2010 i'm going back to 3.13, because text messaging is painful with ios4. How does one do this, my phone is all but broken with ios4.
n_maher Posted June 24, 2010 Author Report Posted June 24, 2010 Thanks Jacob, off to try and make my iphone useful again.
n_maher Posted June 24, 2010 Author Report Posted June 24, 2010 I'm into the restore phase so it's working so far and evidently I can read instructions.
n_maher Posted June 24, 2010 Author Report Posted June 24, 2010 I honestly fail to come up with an adequate way to quantify how much of a downgrade 4.0 was. I showed my wife, her comment, "Wow, that's awful."
emelius Posted June 24, 2010 Report Posted June 24, 2010 spending a lotta time turning off annoying features... the screen is really good...i'm playing 'round with hd quicktime videos on vimeo... definitely worth the upgrade from 3g:)...
n_maher Posted June 24, 2010 Author Report Posted June 24, 2010 it was basically usable for me except for Messages. a lot of my friends only communicate via Text, so it was unacceptable. i don't really miss folders, mostly because i don't really use that many apps, so i can just, you know, delete them. You and I use our phones the same way. I have just over two pages of apps. Me having folders is like tits on a bull.
