johnda · 17th October 2008, 10:33

Guys, I upgraded to 2.1 and I think i have better Batt life and lesser Hangs. But the machine is slowed down a lot. response time for opening imp apps like SMS is more than 3-5 sec now

Any suggestions - I uninstalled winterboard but nothing changed.
I dumped unnecessary apps - nothing still.

HELP

Hello Anybody Home? I'm looking for help to fix my iphone. infact i found out today that my safari crashes when i'm doing my most imp work!

It's goes to the home page or opening screen and behaves like nothing happened aaaaaahhhhhhhh!! grrrrrrrr!

Did you try a re-install of firmware ver 2.1? Safari crashes can also happen on a site loaded with pictures. A Gizmodo link repeatedly crashed for me, but other links on that website worked fine.

yogi1771 · 20th October 2008, 20:24

Yeah 2.1 firmware is crap think it is more suited for the 3g phones,for 2g phones i think the best was 1.1.4 firmware.

So you are suggesting a downgrade? or can some tweaking help in fine tuning 2.1??

srijit · 21st October 2008, 11:42

Well how did you install ver 2.1 in the first place?
Use the same procedure in iTunes to install 2.1 again, hence re-install

srijit, i used iclarified and upgraded. Hope that the reinstall will solve the problem. if not it'll be a downgrade.

iPhone Dev team have managed to hack into the baseband of the new phones. Next step unlock?

I doubt this would be useful to anyone other than international travellers.

From where? It is sold along with a contract, is it not? Not like the first gen iPhone.

johnda · 16th November 2008, 18:22

Guys, I upgraded to 2.0 and the Phone is Ok! i had a Q.
When I save a number in my contact list I save it as say +919812345
When the contact calls the name doesn't show depending on which format i used to save the number. in short the iphone recognizes all the digits and thus if the caller is using a tower that sends the info with a 0 like 09812345 then only the number will show and not the name.
This is annoying. all my close friends' numbers I've saved with a 0 and with +91

I mean twice AAARRRRAAAR!!!
Can anything be done?

go to cydia and install "CallerID Fix Collection". The author is Cario Franchino. The maintainer of this package is iSpazio.net

best of luck

Thanks Rajeev, I did that, so now what? will the trouble be sorted?
Should have posted this 2 months back itself

rajismine · 17th November 2008, 10:48

yes it will be sorted.

Sometimes I donno why this package does nto work when installed with Cydia. but the same package works with Installer 500% times

Let me know if it does not work and I will give you another workaround

Ya I will let you know if it doesn't work. thanks
So now if I save a number with +91.. then even if the person calls from a service provider who shows the number as 098.. i still will see the name right?
Interestingly my old nokia registers only the last 5 digits and the problem is a number like say 0484123456 is saved in your contact list under the name AA and 0471123456 call you AA will show on your Display. Now that's the other extreme
