IPhone :: Change Developer Version IOS 5.1 To Customer?
Mar 14, 2012
Before the official release of iOS 5.1 I installed a developer version (eventhough I'm not a developer). The developer version expired. Now I can't update my iPhone 4S to the official version of iOS 5.1.
This one's just a quick note for all you jailbreakers out there – the developer of popular Backgrounder add-on ProSwitcher, which gives you a webOS-eqsue multitasking interface for your jailbroken iOS device, has just announced via his Twitter that he would be updating the app to support iOS 4 later this week.
He initially announced shortly after Apple released iOS 4 in June that ProSwitcher would not be updated to support iOS 4 since Apple implemented their own multitasking interface in the OS.So, this one's for all of you who don't like iOS 4′s fast app switcher/multitasking implementation!
Me and my fiancée want to get the IPhone 4 but I've been hearing that apple wont sell or activate two IPones to the same family plan. How would I go about preordering? I called apple and At&t and they didn't have a clear answer.
I ordered a phone through a line that was upgrade eligible for another line. They said that when I get the phone I call AT&T and get the SIM card ready to be activated for the other line.I called them up and gave them the "IMEI" number. They said that that iPhone 4 was now associated with my other line. However, when I plugged it into iTunes, it still said the original line. The customer service rep insisted that when it was activated it would activate on the correct line.Sure enough, it didn't. It activated on the original line - now I am stuck without an iPhone 4 - I don't have an AT&T store where I live so I can't just get a replacement SIM card. The original lines phone is now deactivated and activated with MY iPhone 4. I now have to wait for them to ship out a SIM card which will take another WEEK.Because of AT&T I am now left without a phone, my iPhone 4 is now activated on another line, and thus have to wait a week to get it fixed.Thank you AT&T for screwing up again, further proving you to be the worst wireless carrier I have ever been a customer of.
like many of you I've purchased all 3 iPhones to date on the first day they became available. I've been on my own individual plan for all of these purchase.. now I'm married and added my wife last July 11th under the "Family Plan" umbrella with a new 3GS. So there you have it.. we both have iPhone 3GS's purchased within 3 weeks of each other.Here's my problem: MY number (the main line) is eligible for an upgrade at the promotional price; my wife's number is not eligible until mid-March. Even though this phone was purchased 3 week after mine. First of all, neither AT&T Customer Relations, AT&T Customer Care or the ding dong at the corporate store can tell me ANYthing over the phone unless I drive myself all the way up to my nearest AT&T corporate store and debate common sense theories with him in person.He says only the main number will be eligible for an upgrade.. I say "So basically it's cheaper to my $120 ETF and start a new account instead of paying the full retail price $699 (400 dollar spread between promo rate and full retail). Would this not appear to create an incredible amount of busy paperwork for AT&T employees?So long story short, it would appear that if upgrading to new iPhones every year is your thing.. it's best to have two separate individual plans coming into your home instead of AT&T's Family Plan.Curious if I'm missing something, if this sounds right or any input you guys may have.
So my story goes as this, I called customer care to inquire about the white iPhones and if there was any new information while also expressing my complaint for the time wasted trying to pre-order. I was extremely kind and it felt like a normal conversation between friends.In the middle of the conversation before I mentioned how much time I wasted, I said that I've adopted each of the iPhone's as I am a phone fanatic. He quickly interrupted and said, "Let me issue you a coupon". Of course, I did not object to such a generous offer and the coupon he issued was: $30 off $100 $60 off $200 $100 off $300 He stated it couldn't be used on an iPhone or iPad but I know I've used their coupons on things where it shouldn't have worked before. It has an expiration date of 6/26/10 but he stated if I could not use it by then, call them back and they'll issue the same coupon which will last for 3 months. The fine details: 1-800-MY-APPLE and was automatically placed in the customer relations department. I just thought some of you might find it interesting that they are offering coupons due to this complicated ordeal.
I use the iphone more than a year, is best have a lock on machine, now in China, China can't use SIM card, can you tell me how to contact customer service?
An Apple customer service representative just informed me that today, they were informed that there is a limit of only one iPhone for online order per account, no matter what the eligibility of your various AT&T lines are. I ordered each of my iP4's separately, although they're under the same family plan. He said, "It wasn't announced and we, or at least I, was just informed about this today, but you can only order 1 iPhone online. We've actually had a lot of people calling about order cancellations." I specifically asked him why this was the case if multiple numbers on a family plan are eligible for an upgrade, but he was unable to answer. He stated that we would have to purchase our second iPhone 4 in store and that everyone who ordered more than one iPhone will have all but one of their orders cancelled.I've ordered 2 iP4's. One has been shipped, and the other has, "Not yet Shipped." The rep looked up my order for the phone that hasn't been shipped yet and said that there is a hold on it because we're only allowed to order one iPhone 4 online. So, if what this rep said is true, how can so many people claim that both of their orders have been shipped? Here's another thread stating the same thing: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=943290
In Contacts I can chose the "ringtone" and "text tone" to override the default.I receive a text message from my company's pager system and save that address as a contact.And then set a custom "text tone" for that contact.So now normal test messages arrive with the default tone and pages can sound the "Alarm" It would be nice if I Contacts also let me chose the Alert Style and Repeats.(it would also be nice if Repeats worked at all)
Facebook mobile developer: Android is 'sloppy'.'The more I work with Android the more it reminds me of Windows'".The developer for the Facebook application on the iPhone has criticised Android and given reasons why the official app is poorer for Google phones.
Although recently getting a decent upgrade, the Facebook for Android application has always been the poorer cousin to the iPhone version, and Joe Hewitt, who helped created the Apple option, says it's down to the tools offered."The more I work with Android the more it reminds me of Windows… as in, it's really flexible, agnostic, and developer-friendly, but also really sloppily designed," he said on Twitter.
I have an iPhone 3GS running 3.1.3. I want to install a developer profile to enable tethering (AT&T) without jailbreaking. How can I do this? I tried installing the developer profile (while running 3.1.3) and it installed, but it didn't work. Is there a hardware restriction as well?
I just looked at my test menus (menu-menu-back-menu back-menu-back-back etc etc to get the phone-specific info) and it says that my x10 is from France.This explains the Serve.Me app being in French, havn't been able to change the language used in this app.Being English educated and living in Australia, this native (non-removable) French Serve.Me app is pretty useless as my French is "tres mal".Is there anything I can do to install and English version/change the country? Apart from 'rooting' the phone ( rather apt term as Aussies, the word 'root' has also other meanings) which I assume I can remove the native apps.What other parts of the phone are customised for a specific country? I've been able to use everything in English so far - and the 2.1 upgrade is not available yet for my x10!
I can't get the emails to my phone after change the new version for Bold 9700.I have on computer also backup file and don't know how to bring the data to the phone.
My N900 micro-USB connector died only few months after I bought it. I sent it off to customer care and now they're telling me the phone is out of warranty due to either being out of the warranty period, being physically damaged or being water damaged. I took good care of the phone and it worked fine until the battery died.
I need to send every email twice to get a response and they never seem to listen to me.I asked them to reevaluate their verdict and then they asked me for proof of purchase - which I already sent with the damn phone! It seems like the people responding to the emails have no connection to the people who actually have the phone at the repair center.What can I do?
I have purchaesed Xperia Ray on 18th March. Recently i have faced display problem. I have given at Service center on 28th May.Thay told within 7-10 days it will take.
I called customer care after 10 days, they are telling some reasons, and they are not giving proper status/ action on this work order. If i want to know the status i need to call more than 4 times per day, to know the status, they will keep in hold to transfer to higher executives or to get the status from the team. I have faced this problem from the last few days. (14-06-12,13-06-12...)

OK today I was given a replacement Elm under my insurance because for some reason my Elm's speaker stopped working. Anyway got replacement fine all working well. I noticed the replacement had the previous firmware so I decided to update it using SEUS. Now after updating & setting up the phone again I noticed the clear voice & noise shield function had vanished I looked all through the menus & also during call menus but nowhere to be found. So I reinstalled AGAIN only to be greeted with the same problem. I called customer service number & got through right away. Spoke to a Scottish lady who had absolutely no idea what she was talking about. I knew that I was right & she was wrong. She went on to say that the clear call & noise shield function is NOT a feature of the Elm WTF? I said the feature is advertised on the website for the Elm & on the bloody box At this point I asked to speak with someone else & she went off to speak to someone & came back to repeat the same thing again I said how can you say this about it's not a feature of the Elm when it's advertised as it is? She then said when we send out the generic phones we don't put that feature on the phone it's the stores that do? At this point I just gave up & said forget it Has customer service always been that bad? I have not called them for many years but today was shocking
I ordered iP4 in Apple Online Store UK and they shipped it on 5th Aug, today my status changed to "In Transit to Customer - Shipment on Schedule" - but still I cannot find any tracking number from the carrier that will deliver it to me, so my question is, how long do I have to wait for this number ?
I have just received a "Blackberry Bold 9700 Unlocked International Version" which i purchased from Amazon.Com. "This is supposed to be a new unbranded unit".
The installed software version is 5.0.0.351 with platform 5.1.0.98 and branding version 1.0.160.529q.I have read in this forum that there is a later version of the os available yet when I utilized the BB desktop software updater, it say that the latest version is installed. Is this correct?
I also have other issues with applications. I am unable to download and install the "BlackBerry APP World"; I get a message, " Sorry, your device does not meet the system requirements that are needed to support BlackBerry App World"
"Google talk" give an error messag: " Service not enabled for this hand held" "Blackberry maps" are not loaded on the handset.Setup wizard does not give me the option to set up my personal e-mail only enterprise e-mail.I am able to browse and send and receive MMS & SMS messages.
Kindly advise as to ho to resolve these issues and whether there is a more current software version for the handset, and if so: how do I update it.
I have never had this happen to any other Nokia LCD device before or any other similar device that I have owned. There is definitely some strange issue, as when the screen goes fuzzy, if you lock the phone and then place it on or near a heat source for a few moments, when you unlock it the screen is mysteriously working again. This is a very frustrating issue which is exacerbated by the fact that the device is of the touchscreen variety which effectively renders it useless as if you can't see the screen then you can't see the buttons to control the infernal machine! Unless that is you are able to memorise the menus positions and also that of their sub-menus and options! Anyway, one thing I will say is that the service from Nokia is absolutely amzing when it comes to repairing them. I used the online form at http://www.nokia.co.uk/support/repair/repair/warranty?c=1 and they sent a UPS guy who arrived to collect the device the ver next day! That was last Monday, the 29th March, and I received back a brand new Nokia 5800 today!
Obviously rather than repair the device they have just replaced it with the revised model that they are obviously producing now that they have realised and rectified their errors. I am very impressed with getting a new device and so quickly too! Only thing is, they don't send you a new back for the phone, as they tell you to keep yours at home and not send it to them, so if your back is worn it will look out of place with the brand new phone if thats the route that they take with your case, which I think they will, or rather should. That is because I have heard that people that were getting their original device repaired and returned to them the problem was recurring soon after it being returned to the user. Props to Nokia though on replacing my 5800! I must say that at first when I sent it I thought I was going to be waiting for ages, but as I said I only waited a week and they even have a widget on their repair part of the site that tells you the status of your repair and where they are with it, all you have to do it type in your case number.
I have Iphone 4 currently 4.3.3 version and am having issues updating to current version 5.0.1. Phone is plugged in, computer asks if i want to update, I click yes, computer downloads the new software (25-35 min) but when it starts to transfer to phone an error message pops up saying that the network has timed out. This has happened on two different computers.
I have developer settings unlocked and i like my phone to go smooth with animation but my phone somehow turns off animation by itself and i need manually to turn it on again.
I can't enable "Force GPU rendering" under "Developer options" as every time I check this box and leave the page, when I come back I find the option disabled.
I've noticed that when I restart my phone some of my developer options will get reset to default. I haven't fully troubleshooted which ones get reset but specifically: "Wi-Fi verbose logging", "Allow Wi-Fi roaming scans", and "Limit background processes" all get reset to default after a restart. Other settings like: "Include bug reports in power menu", "Use NuPlayer" stay the same after I restart.
