iPhone coma - dodgy update

comedyfish · 08-10-2009, 18:54

Can't believe there isn't a thread about this (or an obvious one anyway)

Everyday, at least once a day since the new update- my iPhone --> brick!

bah - so annoying!

If by chance anybody hasn't updated to the new firmwire - I suggest you don't (unless you like your phone crashing for no reason at random times!

have to home and power button it for liek 10 seconds to get it back up again!!!

Update 3.1? not had any problems on either of ours.
Anyway, 3.1.2 is out today mate.
Hope that helps.

Apple today released iPhone OS 3.1.2, addressing several issues regarding waking from sleep, network service disruption, and crashing during video streaming. iPhone users should connect their iPhones to iTunes and click the "Check for Update" button to obtain the new version.

This update contains bug fixes and improvements, including the following:

- Resolves sporadic issue that may cause iPhone to not wake from sleep
- Resolves intermittent issue that may interrupt cellular network services until restart
- Fixes bug that could cause occasional crash during video streaming
The update is compatible with all iPhone models and weighs in at approximately 240 MB. Apple introduced iPhone OS 3.1 almost exactly one month ago, bringing a number of new features including Genius recommendation for applications, Genius Mixes for music and purchasing of pre-cut ringtones.

Update: A corresponding update is also available for the iPod touch.

Also, the iPhone OS 3.1.2 update for iPhone in U.S. is accompanied by an update to AT&T's carrier settings file, which brings the settings to version 5.6.

That happened to me on Sunday! I was quite worried when it wouldn't wake from sleep, and even more worried when charging it did absolutely nothing! Seems the solution was to hold down the buttons for as long as it takes for the screen to come back on.

I had sorted out my receipts and everything since I was convinced it was dead.

Thanks lininjim for posting about the update. Didn't know it was out.

*Goes to update phone*
