iPhone newbie here...just collect my white 3gs today at KLCC Maxis...

ya i heard bout it as well...and they (forumer...from all over the world) said that hairline cracks was a common issue on iphone...especially the white one...more obvious...

if take for an exchange...do we need to wait for ...like...few days ...maybe weeks or months? or on the spot that take a brand new and unbox it right infront of u? i dont think so...right?

guys...just back from Maxis this morning...

they allow me to swap one to one...first they took out one brand new and unbox it infront of me, i check under a display shelf's dim lights (the cracks are almost invisible under Maxis Centre ambient lights)... some parts the cracks are less then the one im collected last nite, some part more worst...

then i request for 3rd one...again he unbox it infront of me...i check thru it again...i only found 2 hairline cracks...i consider it the best units...so i choose the 3rd one...

i think is manufacture problem... i looks over the web...forumers claims that is common issue for iphone...

which meant av iphone do have such issue... i wondering...


Added on October 14, 2009, 12:54 pmactually the visibility of those cracks are almost 0 under normal room ambient, but when u put it under table lamp or some yellow dim lights (ikea one) the crack will shown up clearly...

as far as i know white version will be more obvious then the black... black one...almost invisible...as i check thru my brother's one (which collect the same day as me..coz we book at the same day) i cant find any cracks...

lil opinion~

For those who not getting Album Artwork shown in Coverflow, in iTunes select all the song under the same album which Artwork didnt shown in iPhone Coverflow, Comm + I bring up the Multiple Item Info tap, on the Info tap there should be a Artwork column on the bottom right, double click on the white square box and reattach ur Album Artwork, then re-sync back into ur iPhone.

Its work for me...

I can only speak for Maxis users presently as I am using their services. Yes, what you mentioned are happening quite rampantly and I believe it is due to their 'connections'. All those I know using iPhones and even not, are experiencing that.

can anyone or maybe all the sifus help me on this.

i still wanted to know what the culprit on drop calls.
lately, i got alot of drop calls. people cannot reach me and i cant reach people. can the sifus here explain more about this? please..
i heard ths drop calls can be solved by changing the simcard to 256K sim card? how far is this true? clarification needed.

one more thing, i dont know is this a bug from 3.1.3 update or not.
but sometimes when messages come, there's no sound come out.
suddenly see the phone got message. this happen since i update 3.1.3.
kena few times d. around 3 times. anyone experience it before? whats the culprit? 3.1.3 or not?

thanks in advance.

Nowdays alot of drop calls due to Maxis system overload...

Even Blackberry experience tons of drop calls...

I have called Maxis their solution is Switch 3G off when making call
There is less drop calls on Edge.... try it...

hmm...that doesnt consider as a solution at all...
