Nobody encounter this prolem in malaysia??
WIFI Issue on Iphone

Every now and then, even while browsing in app store suddenly the connection gets lost. Wifi signal is still there and of good quality, but apps cannot receive data anymore.

The only solution so far is to disable Wifi and enable it again ...

Have anyone experienced this before...?

Please help

I have read the support discussion from apple and some other mat salleh forum, the y also encounter this kind of problem........
*
Connection lost it might due to the router problem.
Try check wifi connection in other public places like Mcd ,KFC or your friends home wifi for secure connection.
If the problem still presist,upload a new firmware to your phone.
Btw,using a complain template is encouraged.Next time please use the template instead of giving a long essay.

Cheers

Hey guys, what conventions or rules do you use when grouping apps together? I'm always having trouble deciding how to group my games, and sometimes even the apps. I feel like just ungrouping everything, but that would probably mean super alot of pages!
*
Grouping.The biggest problem that iOS 4 above owner faceing up laugh.gif
There no rules on grouping.
You are free and legal to use the firmware unless tempered it.
Sort out like Games,Entertainment(call track,facetrack,),GPS Apps,Social and so on.I dont want to teach you.Learn up dude. drool.gif

Invalid sim card / sim failure problem. I'm currently on DIY maxis micro sim. Has the sim kick the bucket?
If so would acquiring a new micro sim solve this problem?
Second, where can I get the new micro sim ? Does any maxis centre would do?
*
Maxis are ready to help you by exchanging your current card to micro sim.
Why you went and cut the card instead of changing it ?
You can call or visit any maxis store to get your new micro sim for rm10.They charge it as sim replacement.

QUOTE(huiqing88 @ Nov 19 2010, 04:01 PM)
Been facing a problem for few times, suspect is a bug in iOS 4.1?

After voice call ended, sometimes the screen just goes totally black, left with only the top status bar (carrier, time, battery, etc), as attached picture. Pressing Home button will bring out the querty keyboard but typing doesn't have any effect. Solution to get it back to normal is to press the power button, lock the phone then unlock it.

Anyone also having this issue?
BTW I'm using iPhone 4 32GB loaded with iOS 4.1. Jailbroken. But I don't think is JB causing problem, because before JB also having this issue.
*
Why you say JB phone dont have this problem ? please read back that most of 40% of JB phone are having a serious time on their phone.
Btw, my piece of advise,try to hard reset your phone 1st.If cant,reflash your phone using the same iOS 4.1.
I dont think its a bug for iOS 4.1.
Since your qwerty keyboard are not sensitive ,i suspect there might a crash firmware loaded on it.

Remember,always update or restore firmware from iTunes.Dont download from other source offering the firmware.
There might be info highjack.

Can you register for a US iTunes account and pay using your credit card VIA PAYPAL? Meaning, I attach my credit card to the Paypal account, and then in iTunes, I choose Paypal as the payment method.

No you cant.iTunes automatically detected your location (Malaysia) and only purchase available from Malaysia Store.

when u turn ur phone to silent is it still rattling? my iphone4 also got sound but when press sleep only (not wake button) and after slide unlock, but when turn silent no sound...but i think that's normal

Its not rattle my dear.The phone vibrates.
Please check the setting->sounds ..scroll till bottom.check the setting over there.try to on and off.and then reboot your phone.

Anyone knows where I can have the service of simcard cutting in Ipoh. Just got my iphone 4 and need to cut the present SIMcard. Thanx in advance. sad.gif

Feel free to visit any Maxis or Digi store to get your new micro sim card.They will provide it as new.No need to cut and do the messy job,although easy.
for less hassle la.or you always buy a sim cutter from our very own garage sales.

QUOTE(QuickFire @ Nov 20 2010, 12:44 PM)
Actually, I need you guys' opinion on this.

I'm trying to get a replacement for my current iPhone 4, because of one problem I have. Whenever I reboot the phone, I will not be able to make outgoing calls (incoming calls, and SMS are fine). I will then have to go into settings > Phone > Show My Caller ID. Simply going into this setting without changing anything (it's turned on by default and I cant change it anyway) will return my outgoing calls ability. I don't know why this happens. It's a bit annoying, but trying to get a warranty replacement seems even more annoying, so what do you think?

Other issues I have with my iPhone:
- When I turn on Cellular Data and 3G, the 3G icon appears instantly on the statusbar, but I will not be able to actually surf the web or connect to the internet immediately. I will have to wait 2 to 5 minutes before I'm actually really connected.

- Signal bars occasionally drop to 1 or 2 bars. In addition there are loads of areas where I only get EDGE and not 3G. Probably Digi's problem and not Apple's right?

- There will sometimes be some lag when flipping screens in the springboard, and also when scrolling long settings pages (like settings > Mail, Contacts, and Calendars).
The main problem I described above I'm pretty sure it's an iPhone defect, since I dont see it happening to anyone else. The other three... are perhaps "features" of the iPhone 4. What do you think?

P/S: My phone isnt jailbroken.
*
My piece of advise .I been watching over your phone problem since you post over here.
Im really sorry on that phone problem.I will try to help as much as i can on this brother.

Issue 1.
Since you cant make outgoing calls,the suspect is your line(digi is your carrier i assume).
Last time i had this same problem where call failed and unsupported network from Maxis(customer complained alot).
So i did my own DIY for that phone.
Simply restore back my 3.1.3iOS (iphone2g) and walaaa,its no more.
p/s: unlock only.no JB
Maybe you can try that method since yours is Digi set.

Issue 2.
Signal bars problem.All iPhone 4 having this problem from the 1st days its launch.Holding while making calls,will reduce your signal bars.Apple still looking for this problem solution.
Since its made of metal barrier,so cant help much on that.Seems the barrier metal are surrounded and its functioning as Wifi,Edge,Gsm and UTMS.

So my advise,try to restore your firmware back to iOS 4.1 and look if the problem still presist,get your phone back to Digi for replacement.

Dude, you don't understand me? I was not saying it must not caused by JB, what I was saying was it might not be JB causing the problem, because before i JB it, such problem also exists. I even had reset the firmware before, but this problem also exists in random. And I believe I'm not the only one faced this problem before.

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, I'm on Digi. I've changed the sim card 3 times now, and the outgoing calls problem (Call Failed > Call Ended) is still there. Probably not Digi's problem then? And I'm on iOS 4.1.

About the signal bars, I'm using a silicon case, so reception shouldn't be a problem anymore right?
*
some qoute from apple it self.

QUOTE
Upon investigation, we were stunned to find that the formula we use to calculate how many bars of signal strength to display is totally wrong. Our formula, in many instances, mistakenly displays 2 more bars than it should for a given signal strength. For example, we sometimes display 4 bars when we should be displaying as few as 2 bars. Users observing a drop of several bars when they grip their iPhone in a certain way are most likely in an area with very weak signal strength, but they don't know it because we are erroneously displaying 4 or 5 bars. Their big drop in bars is because their high bars were never real in the first place.

To fix this, we are adopting AT&T's recently recommended formula for calculating how many bars to display for a given signal strength. The real signal strength remains the same, but the iPhone's bars will report it far more accurately, providing users a much better indication of the reception they will get in a given area. We are also making bars 1, 2 and 3 a bit taller so they will be easier to see.

We will issue a free software update within a few weeks that incorporates the corrected formula. Since this mistake has been present since the original iPhone, this software update will also be available for the iPhone 3GS and iPhone 3G.


and some link for you to ahead on this : link

so now you clear about your phone.its the phone defect sometimes.not only you having this problem.
go to DIgi store,bash them up kaw kaw on your problem.
Ask for phone replacement.

But before that,try to restore the phone using the same iOS 4.1 .If not get it warranty covered from Digi

Thanks much
