Apple iOS 4 - anyone update yet?
 

I'm updating my 3GS now...if you're not living on the edge - you're taking up too much space!

:D

I just updated my wife's phone. Can't do mine until the new jailbreak is released.

So far, the folders and the digi zoom on the camera is all that I have played with.

The new inbox should be helpful if you have several. accounts.

A little anti climactic so far - the digital zoom is interesting but digital zoom is always lame.

Always.

I don't think the 3GS will notice a lot of general difference. I only have one mail box on mine so no big deal there. My wife's 3G though - she has an exchange mailbox on hers as well as a few pop mailboxes...

I updated my 3GS about an hour ago. So far I like the folders and the changes to Mail. The consolidated inbox is long overdue, and the threaded emails are also handy. It's oddly satisfying deleting a thread of 15 or so emails with one swipe.

I'm updating mine now as I'm having a problem with my phone. It won't turn on unless it's hooked up to the charger or computer. And even then, I have to press the home and on/off button in multiple ways to get it started. I'm thinking the battery might be shot after 18 minths.

Any ideas?

Mike,

Any performance issues running iOS4 on a regular 3G?

I haven't updated the wife's 3G yet - I'm not sure I am going to - generally speaking when you do one of these updates - regardless of performance you can't go back...

Finishing my 3G tonight.

Will report tomorrow.

Not a lot for he 3G but will likely get the 4 shortly so figure what the hell.

I started but then my son hijacked the PC, LOL.

I have no interest in the combined inbox feature, but the app folders thing is sorely needed.

I'm due to pick up an iPhone 4 on Thursday but may bail-out if the lines are as insane as I anticipate. There may be people camped-out there now for all I know. Of course at the Santa Monica store, there are ALWAYS people sleeping outside so it would be hard to detect a change!

Oh oh...updated to OS4 and just purchased and audio book. Now when I open iPod or iTunes to find the download the phone opens the app then shuts down the app after a few seconds goes to the main.

Anyone try to open a downloaded audio book or iTunes since you updated?

I like the folders, the zoom is lame (as expected), I have not figured out multitasking yet (maybe it's only for certain apps) and that's pretty much it. Overall, the most important thing is - it does not seem slower!

I'm waiting to hear about 3G upgrades...My wife's coworker upgraded hers which has the same stupid email setup as my wife's so if that goes well - we'll upgrade hers. My buddy is buying a (4) model and I Think I'm just going to buy his 3GS for the wife instead of a (4).

I upgraded my 3G this evening. Like it warned, it wiped a few pictures that I had put on the phone. Everything I took from the phone was still there. My music is gone as well... I have my phone pick up email from my own email server out of my house and everything was fine, other than the fact it deleted all the old email that I kept. The main app I use for rollerblading did not crap out like it did before, but I noticed that it seemed to be okay for a few days if I hard cycled the phone anyway, so I won't be sure if it's anymore stable for a few days.

Mike, if I read things correctly, multitasking only works with certain Apple apps at the moment and developers would have to write in the code to throw their apps in the background.

Mine keeps locking up while adding some trimmed something or other. Meh, as long as it makes phone calls and I still have my aeroweather app.

Did my 3G. Everything works as before. Can't see anything new yet.

Is it even worth doing it on a 3G??

This sucks. I can't find any info online about why iPod is crapping out everytime I try to use it on the phone after the update.

Have you tried a reboot? Sometimes ram gets tied up and apps start to crash.

Rebooting shuts everything down. If that doesn't work then it is time to restore.

Rebooted several times..no dice. Can't be specific to my phone.

Folders and threaded mail is about it.

re-synch'd the phone with iTunes and now iPod appears to work.


The mail thing is kind funky to have redundant inboxes and accounts listed on the same screen. I like the combined inbox feature, but I'm not sure it's a must have.
