The iPhone 4 |OT|

My apologies if the answer to this issue has cropped up before and been gone over numerous times (google wasn't much help).
I've had this error occur with my older 3GS phone, but it's only just started to occur on my 4.
Basically, while it is in 'sleep' mode or whatever it's called, and someone will ring me, all too often it won't let me swipe to answer the call, and I miss the call.
I haven't had a chance to sync it or restore it or anything like that (though I will try both things tonight).
Any ideas? 16gb iPhone4, running 4.3.3, never been jail broken or anything like that.

I had that happen to me on my 3GS.. but it also occurred just on the normal lock screen randomly. The solution was for me to throw it in sleep again then to click the home button again and try swiping once more. Sometimes it'd happen two times in a row. I eventually got a whole new screen from the Apple Store.elfinke said:
Quick question,
I downloaded the Civ:revolutions game on my ipod touch when it was free a couple months back, now that I have an iphone4 , can I get it again without paying?
I ask because I technically didn't "buy" it but I did get it for free. I've already tried this with tetris ( had it on my ipod and transfered it to my iphone, it said I already purchased it, and I didn't get charged ) I just don't want to be charged 7 dollars...
Note: None of my itunes account info is sync'd as itunes has messed up on my quite often so I gave up using it.

DFU mode. Or recovery mode.
Do you guys think they'll release an unlocked version of the next iPhone out of the gate? If they don't I'm hoping they at least drop the iPhone 4 price quiet a bit. By time the iPhone 6 rolls around the ATT/Tmobile merger will most likely be through and I can just get it that way.

I figure I'll upgrade to an iPhone 5 when it comes out. My contract doesn't end until July 2012 and Verizon told me that as long as go month-to-month after my contract ends, and don't upgrade hardware, I'll keep my unlimited data plan. We'll see.

New screen film, new candyshell case; it's like I've got a whole new phone.
Dragon Go, app from Nuance, that is like Siri--voice-based assistant.

Less than 12 hours in; dropped my phone walking into work. Nicked the screen protector. Had a bit of a panicky moment because it looks like a impact crack in the screen itself.
Thank god the screen protectors come in a 2-pack.

All of this is entirely Apple's fault, I guarantee it.SonnyBoy said:

I can only speak for myself but I think they're running the risk of making their users choose. Apple doesn't have the services to compete with Google and I don't think that they can. Must I really wait 3 years for them create their answer to Google Nav? I guess in their I must wait, lmao. SMH. Like I said, I love my phone, I love their innovation, I hope their arrogance doesn't cause a downfall.

Get tiny umbrella there is an option to kick it out of that mode.omimasum said:i recently got an iphone 3gs 16gb and i happened to press the 'erase all content and settings' and now its stuck on a spinning wheel and i cant seem to go into duf mode or turn my iphone off. itunes also wont recognise the device. please help me somebody
I just got my iphone 3gs replaced since the battery is dead. 79 bucks for a nicely refurbished phone with a new battery which i can sell for 100 when iphone 5 comes out. Got to say i was in and out of the store in ten minutes.

I'm thinking about getting the iPod 4S/iPod 5 when it gets released this year but I had a question about iOS.
I have owned a Droid Incredible and Droid X. Built into the operating system is an ability to easily search for something. I hit a button on the device and a search page comes up, when typing in the search term I want, suggestions auto-populate. Once the search results come back I can click say on a restaurant that I searched for and clicked its number which will instantly take me to Phone with the number ready to call. Android also lets me copy addresses fairly easy just by clicking on them.
Is there anything like this built into the iPhone? Obviously a front facing button for searching wouldn't be there, but are the other options available?

iOS has Spotlight search (basically just universal search), it's one swipe left of the first homescreen (or another push of Home button when at homescreen). Addresses and phone numbers do open in the Maps/Phone app; the downside is if you get an actual navigation app, iOS doesn't let you select different default programs to open links/files with (unless something has changed recently).

Guys, is there any problem whatsoever with charging my iPhone 4 with a 10W iPad charger? I can't seem to find my iPhone charger so I've been using that in the last couple of days.
My gf's iPhone 3G, if charged by it, won't change its battery status after hours of charging, but if you plug in a normal 5W it immediately updates it to 100%, ha. Maybe a respring/reboot would do it too. But the iPhone 4 doesn't seem to suffer from that problem. However I'm wondering if a more powerful charger can be more taxing on the battery or something.

Hi guys, I have a question. Should I invest in an iphone 4 (I don't have a good cellphone right now) or in a Canon 550D. They are both around the same price. I know they are two different kinds of hardware, but I actually need them both.
