iPhone Chat

Try deleting your email and adding it back. It seems like email is often the culprit if battery life suddenly gets worse.

Thanks but I tried that and every other trick people have posted. There is obviously a problem with the 3.0 firmware and I just want to go back to what works.

This would be very simple to do using iCal on a Mac... But since youre on a PC it may not be that simple yet.. You can at least load your contacts onto your SIM and import those directly to the phone.. As far as the rest go I believe youll have some better options to sync those as well once the 3.0 software becomes available next week...

i use to have a cento too. hated that thing!
anyways, sync to outlook and then sync iphone to outlook
the ical/address book thing is only for Mac users.
you can also have the centro send all of your contacts to your pc as v-cards and use those to sync.

No, you didnt - Apple missed something obvious. And after two years still havent remedied this.

With previous phones, all Ive ever had was a single audible alert and the tape symbol in the top corner if Ive got a voicemail. If I was nowhere near my phone at the time, Id still be forced to look at it, just as I would with the iPhone.

The iPhone is my first phone in the smart phone category. Most of the previous dumb phones Ive used included an audible alert after a missed call indicating there was a missed call with no on/off option for the audible alert, which I didnt like much. This forced me to manually handle the phone to turn the audible alert off.
If Apple decides to add such an audible alert with a firmware update, which I understand is important to some, I sure hope there is an on/off option for the alert that doesnt force me to manually handle the iPhone to turn the alert off.

that was my first thought. Have checked firewall and spyware applications on my comp and both are enabled to allow updates, etc from Apple & iTunes.
Never had this problem before with updates etc, its strange that iTunes 8.2 will download but not 3.0
I dont know whether to uninstall 8.2 and try from scratch or try updating from another computer

Try temporarily turning off your firewall, and temporarily disabling your anti-virus, anti-spyware/adware and any other anti-whatever that is required with Windows before the download.

You can download the firmware by searching for it on various 3rd party sites. Make sure you use the 7A341 build.
It can be done by first backing up your phone, and then holding shift (on a pc) alt (on a mac) and clicking restore and locating the downloaded file. This should work as an alternative to the iTunes update downloader and it is the official OS 3.0 build.
