IPhone :: Does IOS 5.1.1 Break Or Fix Anything Not Mentioned In Release Notes
May 11, 2012
When I got the 4S stock with iOS 5.0 (gripes about the Apple-imposed limitations aside,) the phone was fine. Come 5.0.1, I think it was fine as well. When I updated to 5.1, however, it seemed to make touch less responsive and increased the latency. It was much more noticable when trying to utilize pinch to zoom. Often times in the browser or photo viewing, I'd pinch and nothing would happen and I'd have to try a second time or my input would be really delayed. I'm wondering if 1) anyone else noticed this, 2) if it's fixed in the recent release of 5.1.1 and 3) if anything else gets screwed up in the update. Because of this, I'm hesitant to update.
i have a brand new iphone 3gs its locked to the voda network in the UK.i have tried my usual method of using pwanage tool to jailbreak and then unlock.I cant do this i think because the phone has never been activated.is it possible to jailbreak and unlock and actviate at the same time ? a new iphone 3gs.i dont have a voda sim card only 02 ones.the phone has the normal "connect to itunes, emergency calls only " message at present. please basic steps, i am no expert at all.please dont slam me, i have tried to use the search facility and looked at the sticky at the top of this thread. but for some reason it deosnt work
the OS of my 8520 was upgraded to OS 5 but it seems there are some problems the BBM was deleted, so I tried to download BB APPS WORLD to download the BBM, however, I can't download the mentioned APPS.
can i change the background on my ipod touch (not wallpaper) without a jailbreak? is there an app that does this? everything i could find said i needed a jailbreak, but i'd rather not do that.
Weird problem here, my Notes application cannot find the notes I've written, it's like they were auto-deleted. The first time it happened I thought maybe I exited without pressing done, thinking maybe that saves it. But it's happened to me several times. I write a note, press done, exit out of the program. Open up the program and the note is still there, but after a day or 2 it's just completely gone. I'm not even syncing it or anything. This is on a ip4 with 4.02 and no JB.
Has anyone had problems with notes disappearing from the iPhone notes app? how this happens and how to retrieve the lost notes that have not been backed up since the last backup was done
I use a Mac (OSX 10.5.8) at work and would like to be able to tranfer some files to my Xoom. I didn't try it until after the ICS update, but whenever I plug in my Xoom, the Android File Transfer program pops up, then crashes. I've tried restarting both the Xoom and my Mac multiple times. Does anybody have any ideas to make it work?
Hi, I recently got pokemon red on Meboy, and since this game requires quite a bit of clicking, i was wondering if the screen can handle this, and will all this clicking wear down the screen mechanically?
Is there anyway to perform a line break, or return character, while texting people? Been a couple times where I wanted to text something on different lines and didn't want to sit there using spacebar to get to a new line (waste of space/time). I know there are other messaging programs out there and that certain apps allow character returns (like Facebook for Android) because I'd rather have that than the stupid smiley faces...
Im in an endless respring loop and cannot break out of it. i have tried everything i know... details below
(3gs on 3.1.2, new baseband, with 3.1.3 backed up on cydia...and im running windows XP)
here is what happend:
--tried to set file permissions for the calender app bc it was not letting me add new apointments after SSHing the file from another phone
--used ifile to 1st: private/var/mobile/Library/Calendar (i went one step further) as far as i could go before an edit, then clicked the blue arrow and while the permissions was root, i noticed that it set to read and write only. so i changed this to RWE.
--went back to calendar tried to add a new apt -- no go, didnt work
--back to ifile 2nd: private/var/mobile/Library/Calendar (one step less than the first time) clicked the blue arrow and saw that permissions was mobile. so i changed that to root.
--closed ifile opened SBsettings, and clicked respring. i thought maybe this would cause the changes to take effect. i hit respring three times before it respnded... then it resprung to the sad iphone
--from the sad iphone it has been caught in the respring loop. it goes from the sad iphone to my normal lock screen (i dont run any lockscreen apps).
here is what i have done so far:
--i replaced the Calendar.sqlitedb file with the old (presumably good) file from the old phone via SSH. this seemed to help a little in that now i was able to slide the slider but still, nothing, just back to the loop.
--i attempted to restore from backup in itunes. after about 10 minutes, nothing was happening; the phone continued to loop and itunes seemed to make no progress. so i disconnected the wire.
--i held down the home and sleep buttons until the phone powered down. holding down just the sleep/power button only caused the screen to dim, but the loop continued.
--once the power was off, i turned it back on and ran blackra1n from recovery mode. phone returned to loop.
--powered down again, same method and once in recovery mode, connected to itunes. itunes said it had to restore before it could do anything. i disconnected...
--ran blackra1n again, and once more while back in the loop, and still nothing. but now when i slide, i am seeing the error message about mobile substrate, however, it does not fully appear in that the phone starts to respring before anything can happen. i have been sliding the slider and each time the screen stops at a different level, meaning that i can see the icon animation but the respring stops it at various points. while writing this, i got a text message. it displayed, and then disappeared on the next respring.
Should i do a full hard reset, should i delete stuff via SSH, DFU, i dont know, but it seems like the phone is still intact enough not to need a full restore (which would = re-jailed...).
So I am headed to Vegas for work during the iPhone release. Would I be able to go to the Apple store there and upgrade my iPhone on release day or do I have to wait to return home and buy it in NJ?
When will apple sell more IPhone 4G? I ordered my on Att site on June 29 and read my other threads: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthre...364&highlight
Who can we contact at adobe and Mozilla to get them to release their IPhone applications on the IPhone through Cydia, so the IPhone world can see how well or badly they work for the IPhone platform.
I'm just curious. Next week on the 24th, will AT&T or apple stores have IPhone 4G for people without preorders to snag if only a few devices? Sorry if the topic was already posted. I didn't see it upon my attempt to research it.
I have the Gold Master of 4.0 installed, and now iTunes tells me my phone is already using the latest software (4.0). Should it be offering an update to the newly released final 4.0, or is it exactly the same as the GM?
So it's been said Apple would make an announcement about the IPhone today regarding the problems/solutions. Is the announcement of the selling over a million phones that release? If that were the case, what the heck!
So I'm about to get the new IPhone, but I was wondering if I should hold on or not. Do you think Apple will release a new version to quell the reception/proximity sensor/fragile glass issues?
I've been around since the first IPhone release and apple has never announced a specific case for the 2G, 3G or 3GS. But now with the new IPhone 4 they release a bumper, not really a case. And notice the bumper only surrounds the metal band and thats about the only protection you get? They probably knew about the signal loss during late stages of mass production I'm guessing. This is just interesting to me and speculation.
It's sure that you can't jailbreak an IPhone to work on Sprint or Verizon. I do have an IPod touch and the Samsung Instinct for sprint, but it would be really nice if I could just have them all in one.
I really like the iPhone 3GS Nude case and was hoping they would have announced the new iPhone4 cases but alas no. I know a few of you were asking about it so I wanted to copy what I got back from them. Anyone with any news on when they are coming and what?

On my iPhone I still have to deal with (buggy) release 9886 even though by now I have deleted & reinstalled the app several times. how to force a release upgrade of an app??
is there anyway to get an upgrade to ios6 to test it out before the official release? I have read about some people trying it out and i would love to be one of those people.
