iOS 5

In the process of updating the 3GS.

The download seems very slow. I guess several million people are also updating...

Let us know if the 3GS runs slow with iOS 5 and if there is an option to turn off features. We have a 3G (not S) and two 4 (not S) and I don't know which we should upgrade. The 4S is coming Friday, I think.

It is claiming 6 hours remaining on the download. 105.7 of 668.8 MB. The servers must be swamped.

I will install 5 on my wife's work issued 3GS tonight and report back.

The jailbreak has not been released yet for 5 so my 3GS is off limits to upgrades.

My new phone is being delivered Friday with '5' factory installed!

"Can" and "should" may be two different things. The 3G could be upgraded to iOS4 but after I did the phone became almost unusable. I downgraded back to 3.23 or whatever was the last v3.

I would not be surprised if the 3GS is pokey. The 4 should work ok though. Not sure about the chip differences.

I'm updating my 4 now but already had one internet interruption and had to start from scratch, 87 minutes remaining.

LOL - it's going to suck for you guys if the upgrade goes as smoothly as iOS4 did I held off and was one of the few working iPhones in the building that day.

I got the download in literally minutes.

Mine farted twice on restoring so I decided not to push it.

After what I just went through to get a 3g unlocked I don't have much sympathy for you guys.

Had a little trouble with the update. Had to restart my phone and my computer to get it to work.

So far I do not notice any BIG difference. iMessage is cool and the notifications on the home screen are nice. The only negative about this upgrade is my Rennlist App doesn't work.

oddly enough this morning I picked up my Galaxy S2 and have it all set now. So far so good. A friend bricked his iPhone with the iOS5 install so proceed with caution.

Error 3194

Upgrade failed during the verification process with apple's servers.
They must be slammed.


I will try later in the evening.

Not bothering with my 3GS at this point. It will be relegated to iPod duties in a few days when my 4S gets here....
