*** The iPhone 3G S Thread - All iPhone 3G S Related Stuff In Here ***

Quick guys, I need help!

i got my iphone 32gb, i have used the key to open up the sim, inserted my o2 contract sim card from my n95 as this was an "upgrade" (no sim with iphone)

but it doesn't work. :(

I just get slide for emergency.

edit: ok seems to be an issue with itunes, i need 64bit.

FFS Apple.

Its using the phone signal to triangulate your position (fast but not accurate) first then using GPS to get a more acurate position (slower but more accurate).

MB

Oh right, they must have changed the way it displays then.

On the 3G when triangulate'ing it would have it in a flashing blue circle and then would be a small blue dot when it was using GPS, but the 3GS goes to the small blue dot quickly (and half the time is a mile out).
 
Bought the crystal clear over weekend, you get two protectors and sticky film to remove dirt. Very very good product but I managed to bork one of the films and was well p***ed off. I find these things really hard to align, if you get it don’t start from the home button end but try from the ear speaker end. the problem is by the time you run the protector towards the other end its misaligned.

Think I should have gone with invisishield thing from CPWH, they are on offer for £11 with code. That uses a liquid to align first but worried that may run into iphone!!!
Im heading into the MK Apple Store on the weekend and getting them to do it for me ;). By then Ill have my case so can get that all fitted properly...

The Power Support screen protector is meant to be far superior to the ZAGG for clarity and texture...

ps3ud0 :cool:
 
Added some more I've noticed:
Having had the 3G(S) since friday, here's my comments so far on 16GB 3G (July '08 Launch Week) going to 32GB 3G(S) (June '09 Launch Week):
  • Camera far better on 3G(S)
  • General applications / OS / booting a lot faster on 3G(S)
  • Web pages faster on 3G(S) even when on WiFi (due to the faster processor rendering the page)
  • Volume maybe slightly louder on 3G(S)?
  • Screen definitely an improvement on 3G(S)
  • Silent switch and home button feel far more sturdy/stronger on 3G(S)
  • Vibrate on 3G(S) is weaker/worse than the 3G
  • GPS gets a lock (blue dot rather than large blue circle) far faster on 3G(S) but sometimes is literally a mile out whereas 3G was always correct
  • 3G(S) rattles when shaken :confused:

Gave her both of them yesterday to play with and she couldn't tell the difference :( hehe!
 
I now have a 3Gs and a 3G iPhone, both 16GB, both black. Is there a way of telling them apart lol. Apart from putting a sticker on it or something silly.

iPhone 3G S has mirror writing on the back, the 3G has a faded lettering.

Also, one will say iPhone 3G and the other "iPhone 3G S" ? ;)
 
I'd be interested to know what sort of battery life people are getting.
I'm thinking of buying one of these on PAYG for Uni next year (Train journeys etc) for some music and web browsing mainly but I'm reluctant to buy if it doesn't last that long however I'd be prepared to charge it each night.
I would just like to know what sort of life to expect on a full charge with about 2 hours of music per day and 2 or so hours of web browsing.
