I live in Denmark, and apple is going to release iphone 4 in july. But now when iphone 4 was sold out last week, and now apple is even delaying the ship date to 14 july. these delays can effect europe
Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland. I am (Netherlands). It's going to be a lonngggg month. 3GS will be gone by next week and than I still have to wait for 3 or 4 weeks. Pff. Luckily for me holiday is coming really soon so I can do whatever I want... without an iPhone 3Gspeed.
My wife and I each have an unlocked, no-contract iPhone 4s. Next month we'll be traveling for a couple weeks in Croatia (mostly) and a few days in Slovenia. We're planning to bring our phones with us. We'll be making just a few calls (probably to each other, when we get separated), and using some data - we'll try to take advantage of wfi when its available in our hotels, but I expect we'll use some data when no wifi is available. Doesn't have to be terribly fast (no streaming video), we'll make do with whatever connection speeds are available. I assume we can remove the micro-sim cards from the phones at home, before we leave (leaving them safely at home), then upon arrival at our destination purchase micro-sim cards for both phones, insert them and...I guess activate them on the local network.
Will the phones work during our flight over, without any sim card - (obviously not for calls or data, but for listening to music, watching preloaded movies or playing games)? I've never done this before, but I assume that all content on the phones (music, movies, apps & associated data) will be preserved - correct? Are there any gotchas I should watch out for around iTunes accounts, Apple IDs, setup, etc.? (my wife is not very good about remembering her itunes password...even at home). Basically, do I just pay for the local micro sim card and voice/data plan upon arrival, pop it in the phone, start it up, and start using it? Or do I need to go through any kind of initialization/reset process? My goal is to just change the phone carrier/phone number, but leave everything else on the phone intact and functional - so it's easily switched back once we get home.
I'll make sure that we've updated our phones and synced them via iTunes before we leave home, but I'm assuming we will not have access to any computer (at least none that I'd want to plug my phone into) while we're traveling. Once we get back home a few weeks later, I'm expecting things to return to normal when we pop our "domestic" sim cards back in - I'll assume we can start using the phones on our existing domestic carrier (with our original phone numbers) without having to jump through any extra hoops - correct? (BTW, no, I don't want to just pay our domestic carrier for a travel voice/data package - not an option for us, thanks; one of the reasons we bought unlocked, no-contract phones was to be able to use them internationally with local sim cards.)
I know this is probably vague since the new iPhone hasn't been released yet, but I would like to buy the iPhone 4 at its release, from AT&T without the contract ($599/$699), because I move to Germany a few weeks later. As far as I know it is still locked to AT&T then. Could you use it with a German sim card. How do I activate or can I avoid an activation and how can I use it in Germany? Do I need to wait for an unlock? I don't want to buy it in Germany because it is far more expensive and I don't want to use it with the standard-iPhone carrier.
I recently updated my iPhone 3g and am irritated with how slow it's running as I've heard a lot of people are. I've read about downgrading to the old OS but I'm beginning to consider jailbreaking it. I only have a few questions and i was hoping someone would know:
1) I'm planning on spending 6 months in SE Asia toward the end of this year. I'd like my phone to work there if possible. I'll completely admit that I've not researched this topic enough but my general question is, can I jailbreak my phone and then enable it for use in SE Asia, if so how? 2) Would jailbreaking the phone make it more difficult in some way to enable it for use there?
Unintelligible questions I know and I apologize but I have no idea with where to start for all of it.
how is Apple going to expand sales into 17 more countries at the end of this week, but I've ordered my iPhone over a week ago and it still has a ship date of August? Yet, they can sell more phones in other countries...are they just mass producing all these phones the past few weeks and saving them up for the new launch in these other countries and holding out in the U.S.?? Makes me a little upset, I am not an Apple fan and never have been. I have been using Android for quite some time now and never had any issues but I finally decided to make the switch to try something new and yet it gets worse and worse before I can even get my hands on the actual phone!
My friend lives in a different country and she has an iPhone. I have an ipod touch and wanted to contact her with iMessage. Will it charge for her since she's using an iphone? Or will it not?
I spend 1/2 my time in US and 1/2 in Malaysia. I would like to buy an iphone 4S and use the phone with a local carrier in US and Maxis in Malaysia. Can this be done if I buy a factory unlocked phone?
My cousin just bought an iPhone 4 recently locked to AT&T and is currently living in the Philippines. He told me that if I would ask Apple, I will be able to get the pin to unlock my phone. I will be going to the Philippines as well and I need to get my phone unlocked. He contacted Apple and got the pin and got his iPhone 4 unlocked in minutes. My question is how would I get it?
When I receive for example an iMessage, I now receive them on both devices. Very nice and useful off course. The iPad seems to get them always immediately, while on my iPhone, sometimes get them a few minutes later, or when I open my device. It can be quiet annoying while having a conversation on my iPhone off course. Can I programm it in that way that I always receive push's on both devices? It differs per moment as well, as sometimes they receive it immediately. As soon as reading it on one, it dissappears on the other, but sometimes, that is delayed as well. It seems like that sometimes the iPhone is "not connected" to Wi-Fi. Is this a battery saving method, and can I switch this on and off somewhere? I would like to receive the notifications immediately on both devices. This is not only for iMessage, but also whatsapp or facebook can be laggy on the iPhone.
I have an iPhone 4 with iOS 5.1.1. I receive mail from 3 different accounts. I have noticed that there is a delay on all accounts between when the mail appears on the phone and when a sound is played. This was about 20 seconds but since the last upgrade it has gone to be several minutes. Info: iPhone 4, iOS 5.1.1
I'm traveling to Cuba with a group of friends and family. A number of us have blackberries, none of us have full data plans but rather social networking plans (e.g.. BBM, fb, twitter). I'm wondering if we can talk to each other while all being in Cuba without extra costs. Also keeping in mind about the ability to turn off roaming.
Fedex posted an update on their website regarding the tracking information delays. See below: Tracking Update for Wednesday, June 23, 2010 Package deliveries are proceeding as normal, however tracking updates are temporarily being delayed. Please try back later.
Source: http://www.fedex.com/us/update.html
So if it says delivery date of 6/23 and it doesn't show "out for delivery" don't be concerned because it will most likely be delivered. Call Fedex to verify though.
Why Sony is releasing the update by countries? Why Sony do not just release the update globally? Is there some problem like a overloading the servers with updates? I understand that sony is releasing the updade for only few phones at the same time,but the releasing over the countries is not understandable.
provide the list of countries where Android Market comes preloaded on the phone, please the latest list.If a country is not listed in the list, is there any other way to have applications installed
I'm having a problem with my E63 phone. I've had this for a while. Text messages are delayed. I tried to change network provider twice. But still nothing happened. I'm worried that the problem is in my phone. Do I have to reprogram it? or I just can restore factory settings?
i have continued issues with delay on tests being delayed when sent from my 9800. support blames 'too many texts on device' [no] and recommends reboot to fix - it doesn't i have full signal when seeing the issue and a text that goes immediately is the rarity. BBM works fine. email works fine. calls work fine i feel it is the network - not the device running 6.0 bundle 882
Today RIM reported earnings but they also mentioned they won't have any BB10 devices to sell until Q1 2013.As much as I'd like to see BB10 be a strong alternative, I can't imagine how BB10 would be successful now that it's been pushed back again. Heck, I thought it was going to have a hard time if they had launched it like they said they would last year.They did mention that there would be BB10 devices with a physical keyboard.Do you think we'll even see BB10?
I am using a G4 H815 and recently I noticed that the Gmail app (yes, official) sometimes only notifies me about new inbox mails a few minutes after they were received, usually 1-3 minutes. I didn't notice this issue until yesterday when I placed my G4 with my Nexus pad side by side and Nexus always notifies me *instantly*, by which I mean if I open a web browser on my computer and compose an email to my gmail account and hit the send button, in less than a second the Nexus will beep, while G4 only tells me this new email after a few minutes.
It is not the notification sound issue, then phone simply sits there without telling me anything until a few minutes have passed. And I also noticed that if I keep my phone alive by using it, then the delay between email incoming and notification is significantly shorter most of the time.
I was able to install app from the Playstore, disregard that it mentions a Samsung phone. This website pretty much advises what settings to use and all. Works in the meanwhile until an official fix is released for all of us G4 owners. Night and day difference. You don't have to use the specific settings in the website, I've found some values myself that have worked well but it's a good starting point.
1.) Enable parameters 2.) Don't forget within the app to 'start service on boot' 3.) Reboot phone and enjoy a better phone experience Easy Fix LG G4 Slow Touch Screen Response

I've noticed that there is quite a variance in the time it takes to wake the screen with knock on. Sometimes in a bright Room, it's instant. Other times, from a pocket or dark room, it can take 3 or more seconds.... Of it works at all without having to repeat.
I'm assuming it's a combo of the proximity/light sensor and/or the second screen waking...
I bought my nephew a Curve 8520 only last week. He has hardly used it and now has noticed:
(1) the button movements are delayed, (2) When you go to dial it makes the button noises but does nothing (3) won't access blackberry app world (4) battery running out too quick (hardly any use)
When I bought it from Phones4u it was the last Curve 8520 phone in the shop - the woman brought the box out which was already openend and started to set it up. The phone refused to come on, we had to wait 20 minutes for her to charge it - now I thought that all phones came with a short amount of battery.
