I'm currently studying in France with my American iPhone, and I'm just wondering if the small white USB to wall port will protect my phone from the 220 or the phone will do it itself.
Any clues?

Do I need an adapter to charge my iPhone?
Info:
Mac OS X (10.7)
for some reason, my iTunes says it is 98% charged but my iPhone says it is fully charged at 100%... So I am not sure which to believe nor why this is happening? Does it have anything to do with the calibration of my phone's battery? Do I trust my phone's depiction or iTunes'?Â

Is there any video converters out there to convert your video/movie files into an iPhone 4 format? I was wondering since iPhone 4 with its new and better display could take advantage with better videos? Maybe any converters which convert to iPhone format with the iPhone 4 resolution. Or do you just use the same video converters?

I think perhaps one email was successfully sent from Mail, but nothing more till I returned home. Mail said it was a server error on the outgoing server, but it appears too coincidental with being overseas. Also a couple of apps I tried didn't work (Viber, and as I might have expected, Catchup TV as it's for UK viewers).
Any tips for using the phone overseas? I switched data roaming and Mobile Data off as I didn't need them in the hotel room (and for the cost of course) and switched these both back on when I arrived in the UK. But it seems odd that I could not send Mail in a Wifi environment.

Hi Folks - I have some ideas, but I'd like to get opinions on how to best use mine and my girlfriend's iPhones while we are in Europe for a few weeks. (Germany, Italy, Spain, Austria, Switzerland)
What we have:
GF: iPhone 3G / 8GB | 3.1.2, Jailbroken, not unlocked. 4.26.08 baseband
Me: iPhone 3GS / 32GB | 3.1.2, Jailbroken, tethered, not unlocked, 5.11.07 baseband
What I would like to do: (Other suggestions welcome!)
Instead of getting raped by AT&T, I would like to buy a pay-as-you-go or other local SIM for each phone, so she and I can talk for free to each other, and still make calls locally & back home. I'd also like some sort of data plan that's reasonable while we're there.
Other ideas:
1. leave iPhones at home and buy prepaid Euro phones?
2. Use an AT&T International program?
I got an Iphone for my girlfriend and ahe is going to spain for awhile and wanted to know who is the provider for iphone there? is it movistar? if its movistar do I need to unlock it to make it work? cuz I wanted to update the firmware since some of the games downloaded from the app store isnt working after I updated to 3.1, well it was working before but not its not?!

as many people on this board should know; in other countries, namely European ones, they have much more consumer friendly laws/practices regarding unlocking phones. in most of them they are required to unlock your iPhone for free after they recoup the subsidy or at the very least after your contract is up. the specific laws by country .when they do this they take your IMEI number from your specific iphone, contact apple in some way, and apple plugs your IMEI into the itunes servers, and the next time you plug your iphone into itunes while you have an internet connection it unlocks your iphone permanently forever (so long as your IMEI number stays on file i suppose).in America we have no laws regarding locking/unlocking phones, aside from the dmca amendment (clarification) from November 2006 that expires in three years that says Unlocking your phone yourself is legal (was it renewed?).
In practice in the usa every phone i cant think of either has an unlock code that you can input into the device at any time to unlock it, or the cell company will unlock it for you at the end of your contract or sometimes if you are traveling internationally. of course, the iPhone is the ONE PHONE that at&t refuses to unlock after the contract, unlike its other phones. when the iphone first came out they said they would but a day later their spokesperson had to publicly state he was wrong and that they would NOT unlock iphones under ANY circumstance and that has been the case ever since. even the phones you can buy without a contract are locked to at&t.***my question is this: in some countries you can pay and have your iphone unlocked at any time. if i take my American iphone to Europe can i pay to have my phone "officially" unlocked? will they refuse to do it unless i am on their European network? will apple reject my IMEI because they know its activated to USA at&t and purchased in America with an at&t contract? it seems like even the newest jailbreak and unlock (blackra1n, blacksn0w) are buggy, so i don’t want to do it. all i really care about is being able to use foreign sim cards and not getting but traped by having to use at&t's overpriced international plan. the international plan DOES NOT include data roaming (or does it not include data at all?), and your email updates automatically. i know you can turn off data roaming but there have been reports of the switch magically turning itself on. even if you accidently slide it on for a second and you switch it off if your iphone dls ONE MEGABYTE of data during that time it could cost 27 dollars!!!
also, this horrific nightmare scenario could happen. I’m not sure if at&t or apple or the gsm carrier in Bermuda fixed this, and i know all you have to do is explain what happened to at&t in the above case and they will zero out your bill but its still a monumental headache. also there have been hazy reports of this happening to other people in other countries. I am a big nerd and very tech savy and i LOVE cellphones, i previously had an enV with hacked free internet and free navigation. i consider the inability to "officially" unlock American iphones to be its biggest drawback, and a BIG one at that. after the contract they should have to offer you an unlock, not doing so creates tech waste. forcing people to get expensive international plans that don’t even include data, a basic function of the iphone, is VERY greedy of at&t.
I bought a used iphone4 in the US. It was supposed to be an officially unlocked phone (BB 04.11.08) and I verified this by inserting a T-Mobile US sim card - I saw the network name on the screen, so I was positive that i was not screwed up. When I returned to Europe with the phone, I put a T-Mobile Hungary SIM card in it - and it didn't work: Invalid SIM card... Can it be still locked? Is there something like a region lock? If I have not seen the TMO US sim card working, I would be sure that this phone is still locked to AT&T..

I'm planning on bying an iPhone 4S in an Apple Store in the US. However, I live in Germany.I'm going to get an unlocked one (that is to say SIM lock free) and was just going to use my German SIM card from my german contract.Do you know if that's possible? I wasn't quite sure of what to make of the CMDS-carrier thing Apple wrote about the usability out of the US. In Germany we don't have different kind of carriers. There is no real equivalent to AT&T or Verizon in the States.What about the frequencies? Does the American iPhone support european frequencies?

The microphone on my iPhone (serial xxxxxxx) dysfunction (metallic noises, voices inaudible) but I can not join Apple for free. Why? (with competing brands people can (I work in a high school and I see many cases)).Of course I did a restore to 5.1.1 (9B206).And the dysfunction remain when I use the Apple in-ear headphone kit or when I use a bluetooth kit. When I call 0805 540 003 a robot ask me to pay 35€ just to speak with a human. Again, the warranty is 2 years in Europe. And the first Apple center is 180km away from home.

My wife and I own iPhone 4S phones and will be traveling with them to England for the first time this coming holiday season. We have Verizon service with international calling enabled, and intend to use Verizon's international calling plan for the period while we are to be traveling (no swapping for European telco SIM cards). We each have extensive Contacts lists in our phones, and both are synced to our Address Books on our home iMacs. We have our US contacts memorized in the standard area code + number format, and similarly we have our Brit friends' cell and home phone numbers memorized in the "011" (US exit code) "44" (England country code) + number format. With that we can of course call US numbers as normal and the Brits just fine while here in the US. But when we are overseas I suspect we would need a different number sequence to connect with family back here in the US if needed, and we certainly couldn't call the English phone numbers from within England using the 011-44 prefix before their numbers. Is there anyway to prepare for that situation short of re-entering a bunch of phone numbers for while we are away, and then changing it all back again when we return a few weeks later? How do people who travel overseas frequently, say on business, handle this? Multiple numbers in different formats for each Contact?
