The flaw is hardware so it won't be fixed by any software update. Whatever batch we get will also have the possibility of the antenna problem as there is no news Apple has fixed or improved the hardware design.

Personally, I think there will not be a hardware fix. Therefore the problem will exist throughout the life of iPhone 4 production.

We can:
1. Hold the phone correct way (to quote Steve Jobs) haha
2. Use a case/bumper
3. Wait for iPhone 5

Some have reported problems, some not much problems... maybe because shorting the antenna changes the impedance in an unpredictable way, so some sets more serious than others.

Wish you luck... hope you can get a set with not much problem smile.gif

or wait for 1 or 2 months time for Apple to ship out the fixed iPhone 4 antenna version..

broo i dont think its necessary to spam all iphone related threads with this though.....

hey... i'm not spamming all iphone threads...
Read carefully but alas, the moderator have deleted the other two post..

In iPhone 4 thread, the query is towards Maxis + Digi
In iPhone 4->Maxis thread, the query is towards Maxis line only
In iPhone 4->Digi thread, the query is towards Digi line only

The definition of spam is posting same query content in > 1 times... but the query posted previously have different query content..

as long as you use a case...antenna issue will be solved...

unless u plan to use it naked which is not a really good choice for such a piece of expensive gadget (if u really plan to use it naked..then i think u can wait for ip4gs then)~ laugh.gif

you're right in the sense of using the case as a workaround approach ... but first thing first, does death grip occurs in Malaysia telco line??
Coz I've been hearing some version that other country (minus US) does not have death grip issue...

hahahaha... yeah, have to wait for a while for the fixed iPhone 4

Depends on your own and personal files that you want to store in your phone, it's like you're asking someone's opinion on you should buy a condominium or a house. Again, if budget is not an issue get what you want.
There will be no revised model until June 2011, it would be unfair and irrelevant for Apple to release a new iPhone 4 revised model while everyone pretty much ha one now.

It's true... Apple is in progress of shipping out the new mode that fix the antenna issue via hardware and not firmware...

It's Uncle Google that say it out...

That date conveniently coincides with the expiration date of Apple's free case offer -- also September 30.
