iPhone Generation : iPhone 2G 8GB

Unlocked? (or Part Number): Yes, soft unlocked

Current Firmware : OS3.0

iTunes Version : 8.2

PC/MAC : PC

Jailbreaking software : Not sure

Problem Encountered : My iPhone getting warm even the phone is in idle mode, most of the time unable to receive calls and sms, but i can make calls and smses. All the smses and miss call notices will pop in when i make calls or sending an sms. The the battery last for 3-5 hours only from 100% to totally dried out even in standby mode. I've unlock the phone and jailbrake and updated to OS3.0 for around 2 months already, no such problem occurs during this 2 months UNTIL i use the compatible charger offered by Arika-chan over iPhone acc selling thread. This problem started since i use this compatible charger because i left my original charger at my bro's house. I've switch the phone off for whole night and switch it back to on just now, it seems working fine now, but i doubt if the problem comes to me again, i need some advices!

Steps Taken So Far : Switch the phone off for whole night

Other Information/Remarks : The compatible charger look exactly like this

Edit: It sometimes can receive call/sms but sometimes cannot, it occurs moderately.. and the battery drain much faster than before.. Please give me an advice in proper solution.

P/S: I've switched back to original charger yesterday and the problem still appear sometimes.


So for my problem above, if i update my OS3.0 to OS3.0.1, will it solve the issue?

I would like to hear more opinion from others as i've done some survey in google, quite a number of iphone users with OS 3.0 having this issue and some of them stated that they are sure it's about the OS 3.0 firmware issue.

But so far i cant find any proper solution yet. Anyone?

Help is much appreciated!

@edkiasu:

according to your post:
note the bolded statement. if in any way it's related to the firmware, it shouldn't have shown after 2 months. yes, battery life on 3.0 has been shorter compared to 2.2.1 but 3-5 hours for the battery to fully discharge to zero is not normal. that's the reason i'm suspecting that has something to do with the hardware eg. battery.

so the best method before jumping into the hardware issue conclusion is to do a clean restore/update to 3.0 or 3.0.1, jailbreak, without installing any Cydia apps and monitor the result.

EDIT:
while for the parts highlighted in red, sometimes it might due to the network. i used to face the similar issue, so serious that i've went to Maxis to get a sim replacement and yet the problem still occur (Maxis couldn't detect what's the problem as well). it has been so for nearly a week until everything went back to normal.

Bro, actually for past 2 months, i didnt notice that much until few days ago, i found that sometimes when i make calls, there are few smses popped in a same time.. when i found this is kinda strange, i tried to call and sms from my other phone and it went to voice mail and no sms receive in my iphone. i've tried to switch my other telco number to my iphone, and it gave same outcome. And all of this happens moderately.. Im still able to receive calls and smses sometimes, just like few minutes ago i got a call from my brother, then i've just tried to call my iphone using other phone, and went voicemail again..

Anyway, i will try to do a clean restore/update to 3.0 or 3.0.1, jailbreak, without installing any Cydia apps and monitor the result first when i go back to my own pc. Need to do some survey to proceed the steps first, any recommended link for me? because the unlock and jailbreak not done by me before this..

Add: the battery issue seems went away when i switched back to the original charger, anyway, still need to monitor for few more times

The TS of This thread having exactly the same thing with mine..
