I have to send my phone in and get it repaired. Never had an issue with it and when I downloaded the 2.0 it wiped it out completely. Mistake. Mistake. Is the Webapps that important to lose the phone's functionality! What a crock!</p> At least you didn’t lose your WiFi! I have to send my phone in and get it repaired.

Seriously, I have so many problems with the 3G iPhone running 2.0.2 that it is becoming unusable as a phone, emailer or web surfing device. I already gave up on apps.

Also O2’s 3G coverage sucks even in London. Outside the M25 you’re back down to GPRS! Maybe it’s not O2 though maybe it’s the iPhone. There have been reports of back to back tests with different manufacturers phones in the same location where other phones are working fine but the iPhone gives zilch.

My 2G iPhone which was jailbroken to run on Orange was so much more reliable. I would run it for a week without ever switching it off. No crash’s, no unexplained slow downs, no dead and lost email. Yeah and I also was running a bunch of useful free apps including MMS, video, voice navigation, painting + drawing, games, etc,

Apple, are you listening?

Don’t give up the incredible lead you have gained and the passion from your loyal customers by putting out this crud.

Let’s hope you don’t have to do a device recall but I guarantee if I don’t get a properly functioning iPhone by the end of this month I’ll be a switcher.

Sorry, but I have a life and it isn’t based around debugging an iPhone

:-(

That helps the lag quite a bit. Doesn't solve it completely but it sure helps.</p> Make sure your Sarfari webpage is set to ‘Google’ (or something like it) where it is not trying to load anything.

Apple support says there is no way to go back to 1.1.4. There has to be! Somebody please figure it out!

To add insult to injury, Support told me today I will need to pay for support soon, I’ve had my iPhone too long I guess. Sounds a lot like Microsoft support…

My fear at this point, Apple, like Microsoft will find a way to make the situation even worse.

Regarding MrWillieMatt, I agree Apples reputation is being destroyed by these problems and lack of knowledgeable / helpful support. As for the comment of taking his business away from Apple, why would Apple care if both MrWillieMatt and I were to not buy Apples products.

So who is collecting names for the Class Action?

Wish I NEVER did it! Phone drops calls, periodically can't hear when using ear piece, phone doesn't ring all the time nor vibrate when receiving calls, poor Edge reception, slow text when typing, won't check email regularly when opening mail, have to re-boot to access mail!, and now the upper part of my screen doesn't work therefore the phone is inoperable! So now apple is charging me 29 Bucks to "borrow" an apple care phone while they fix mine! Considering buying a 3G. I didn't have ONE single problem with my phone since I purchased it 6 months ago until this software issue! And no the 2.0.1 update didn't do anything to fix it! I spent 3 hours on the phone last night with Apple of which 2 and half hours were spent on hold for two calls! So disappointed!</p> Just downloaded 2.0 last week decided to wait! Wish I NEVER did it!
