@Woot:
That’s a good thing…. but the real question is, is it snappier now?!
Thank goodness.
but is it more stable?
Yesss !!
I am downloading it for mi 3G
I hope they adressed the huge delays i have when i try to return to the adress book (wich contains 1700 entries, but witch was working fine on 1.0 on iphone 1).
I hope they will adress too :
– Slow installation of apps (few secs for downloading, about 1 min or more to install)
– Unexpected App crashes, that soletime require reboot
– Slow access to adress book
And an ideas for Apple i would LOVE to find in this release :
– Dynamic 3G activation / stop when safari is launched / quited
(3G seems to drain battery life in a big way to me, i desactivated it)
Anyway, even with those small inconvenients, this phone seriously rocks.
i can’t seem to open a lot of the apps i downloaded. the apps keep crashing everytime i open them, including NetShare, and a few others. What to do?
I think its a bit snappier. The keyboard is snappier. Gotta give it a day to how snappy though!
APPLE :
Please add Dynamic 3G activation !
It drains battery, so please make this option exist so i can leverage 3G when y really need it : on Safari, and when i am actively on mail ! (or using an app that require the web).
In all other cases, 3G drains way too much my phone.
Tha,k you AAPL !!!
I disabled 3g, too. I can’t get through an entire day anymore on a battery charge. I turn it on if I need to use the web, but then turn it back off. The other thing that seems to drain the battery is that mail has a hard time connecting to outgoing mail servers and just keeps trying and trying, draining the battery more and more.
I am not using 3G.
My phone barely last a whole day.
Maybe energy management can be optimized some more.
I am worried how long my phone will last when 3G comes to town this fall.
OMG Plouf1er, did you actually use “leverage” in a causal sentence? Please stay as far as possible from your company’s marketing department for at least the next month, then you should be speaking/posting normally again.

If they can’t manage dynamic 3G right now, the least Apple could do would be to make an option that automatically disables 3G when you’re connected to wi-fi networks. I’m usually connected to wi-fi during the day, and I don’t really care if my calls sound “2G” instead of 3G, but I do like to have 3G on when I’m out so I can pull things up faster–and of course I forget to turn it on when I do need it!
Something simple like “if on wi-fi- network, then disable 3G” is so rudimentary even I could program it….. Come on, Apple, make that an option for us, please?!
Okay, class, listen up: when a software update is released that is a right-dot release, as in the case of today’s release by Apple of iPhone and iPod Touch 2.0.1 software update, the number indicates that this is a bug fix, NOT a feature enhancement. The .0.1 is the clue here.
And to those of you who are yelling for feature requests and enhancements for the iPhone here, with all due respect to the editors of this site, it won’t do any good here. You have to take your requests directly to Apple.
There will be a quiz.
NEWSFLASH: Apple will can the nano, and substitute the existing Touch for the base iPod.
$@ $149.
High storage, mobile web, unbeatable device.
Just maybe.
My bookmarks still don’t sync, manually or through the cloud.
correct. mobileme dropped bookmark syncing support
Address book is much faster with 2.0.1. There’s no noticeable lag after opening it like there was with 2.0.
Thanks, Apple, for getting this fix out pronto.
And the crowd are going wild!
No V, it did not. Mobileme simply dropped the ability of accessing your bookmarks through mac.com.
They are still supposed to synch though.
Mine haven’t been working either TT. I’ll apply the update and see if it makes a difference.
Is this hour long “restore from backup” crap going to be a requirement from now on when updating iPhone software? I could’ve sworn it used to be swift and easy and didn’t erase/restore everything on the phone.
What…three weeks?…and we already get Service Pack 1?
This is why Apple is much better.
Oh, and to top it all off, Light Saber has updated itself so that it’s louder, and rotary dialer now has sound effects. My life is now complete!
(sarcasm for those of you who don’t know this old pig)
@R2,
I don’t know what you’re doing wrong, but I didn’t have to restore squat to get the update. Whole thing took about ten minutes.
I’m getting a message that says “The iPhone cannot be used with iTunes because information required for activation could not be obtained from iPhone – check that SIM card is inserted and that iPhone is not PIN locked” I’m currently working in the Philippines – I’m an American with a legit AT&T;iPhone – Suggestions please????
Address book is not noticeably faster if you have a big address book — it is the same, pokey experience.
Pokey = opposite of snappy. Apple, let’s get on these, OK:
– ability to invite people to calendar events via Exchange
– faster address book
– subscriptions to calendars (via MobileMe)
– copy & paste ??
I’d pay $40 for these improvements, given the $$$$ I’ve gladly dropped on productivity-reducing apps 😀
Oh… I do have international roaming enabled and I did upgrade to software 2.0 without any hassle over here
