Anyone facing the call quality problem with Iphone 3GS?
Like the caller cant hear you, volume very low...
Please help...
I did jailbreak for few months, should i need to restore?
*
me, me, me!!
my caller always can't hear me.. and i'll have to speak very loud.. the volume is put to the max..
signal wise.. it's because of my stupid house.. can't get a service inside the house until i walk near to the door or windows..

my iphone 3gs.. the sound is kinda breaking.. it's not that noticeable when i am playing music.. but will hear the breaking bit when playing games like bejeweled where it has sharp pitch/tone..

can i bring it back and claim for warranty?

Added on December 22, 2009, 12:49 pmsample of side edge.. sorry for using this pic cz i dun haf any close up pic of my iphone.. i jz wan to show the side edge of the screen...

the side of the phone go up abit.. nt balance.. nt due to screen protector
*
i think i know what u're talking about..
basically the front screen shud be leveled with the rim of the phone..
somehow one corner of the screen got out a little bit.. when u swipe ur finger across the screen, u'll feel a sharp edge..

i had the same too.. but now no more.. i guess that was because i applied some "force" on that corner once in a while.. but not recommended though.. who knows if u've applied too much of force..

I've solved the problem through restart the iphone. LOL. Do anyone knows to change the ringtone without using originnal one as it's jailbreaked.
*
- cut the song u wanted to use as a ringtone to a desired length (around 28 or 30 seconds)
- convert the clip to .mp4 format
- renamed the converted clip to .m4r
- add the .m4r into ur iTunes library
- sync
- u'll see it under ur ringtone list..

yeah.. u got wat i mean. i afraid after some force, sooner or later the lcd will be affected. do u think maxis will warranty on such case? i'm afraid they will jz refurbish or try to pressure n fix down my lcd screen during service n gif it bek to me as a new one. sooner or later the edge will bounce up again or getting worst.. sigh.. hopefully i can get a one to one exchange.. but jz nw i went to 1U Mac fair.. i ask the iphone consultant there, he told me tat 1 to 1 exchange is only limited to 7 days in purchase.. i was huh?? i neva heard from others mention bout tis?? wonder hw true is tis.. bad service no matter maxis or mac (msia).
*
never took it for warranty.. cos i think they will told me that i should have check for physical "irregularity" before leaving the outlet..
anyway.. it's okay now.. haha..

yeah.. never try, never know

Hey guys, i need some help here.
I've changed my username and settings on the APN (by enabling bundle support etc) to disable edge/gprs ages ago and it was succesful. Hotlink never charged me anything because could not connect to cellular data network etc etc.
THE PROBLEM HERE NOW IS SUDDENLY ITS CHARGING ME AND EVERYTHING SEEMS TO WORK 100% fine now. I changed the user to x, password to x but everything still working?!
I even tried doing the unlockit.co.nz but it still charges me..help me someone?
Btw, my iphone is 3g and is unlocked using blackra1n if that helps?
*
why dun u just turn off data roaming, location services, etc?

Unlocked? No. Officially unlocked from Maxis
Current Firmware : 3.1.2
Current network : Maxis
iTunes Version : 9.0.2

Jailbreaking software : blackra1n
Problem Encountered : "Internet Tethering" option is missing
Steps Taken So Far : Reboot the device and tried other SIM
Screenshot of Problem(if applicable) :
Other Information/Remarks :

"Internet Tethering" option has always been there and turned off after I JB'ed my iPhone with blackra1n. This afternoon, I turned it on and then selected "USB" as connection method. After that, I'm not able to see "Internet Tethering" option anymore.

I've tried rebooting the device and using other SIM card but it still not there.

Any idea? Restore and re-JB would be my last choice..

Thank you..

a very n00b question: After JB, will I still be able to download apps from iTunes? or it is only possible via Cydia.

Yes, you can.
