I just got my 16gb iphone from maxis last week. Initially was great but sometimes it crashes.

I am using Itunes account from the US store, I sync applications from my PC, but songs i sync itunes from my macbook.

It doesn't allow me to sync applications even using the same login on my macbook, but when i use pc it allows. ( maybe cause i registered using pc first)

anyway.. started installing some appliations had some fun, charged and next morning used the phone.

Started pressing applications, it loaded a while then when back to home. All my applications that i could use the night before all corrupted after i charged.

Phone function and safari all ok only application failed.

I reboot phone pressing sleep and home button for 10secs screen went blank. Then press the sleep buton apple logo appears, but just HANGS THERE.

Tried off then on, off then on, off then on..logo still hangs. decided to ON and leave it longer.. later the apple home appears. but applications still cant load.

deleted them off, reinstall them using applications function itself on the iphone. applications works now.

so far now so good.. but i think it will crash again.

and i noticed i charged from night till morning.. and when i press my general > usage "the time since last full charge is empty" is not stated anything after a 8 hour charge???

and Call time lifetime states 3 hours left.

why????

anyone please help..

u managed to get ur iphone working back..ermm whats the problem here?

how bout u JB ur phone. hehe

how about using the wonderful method, restore and try to install all back the application, if the problem still happend then its time to send it back to maxis and get a new 1.before this you on 2.2.1 firmware.? try to restore back maybe can solve the problem.

cheers
Taka.

I got my iphone 16gb 3g from maxis as well about 3 days back. On the 1st day i got it, it was all fine and smooth.

The 2nd day it started to crash and hang especially when there's a incoming call during the standby mode. It rings and vibrates but i just can't pick it up. After the phone call ends, i have to restart the phone then it will go back to normal. Happens like at least 2-3 times a day.

Sometimes when i make a phone call, right after i press the dial button the whole screen goes blank off into standby mode. Can't press the power button nor the home button. I have to wait for like few seconds before i could press them and make the call again.

Btw the phone is still a "virgin" no applications installed yet and a 1st time mac/iphone user. And i thought apple rarely hangs/crashes. Anyone happen to know whats going wrong with my iphone?

The first thing you should do upon getting your iPhone is connect to iTunes and get the latest 2.2.1 firmware update. For me, since I'm on 2.2.1, i seldom see a crash app on mine.

hi, i think the call time, lifetime means how long you used your phone for calls. Not how much time left to use....

I wondering after u get your Maxis set , the Firmware is what version by default??

and did u guys update to the latest version ?

The problem with picking up calls sound similar to the iphone 2g a friend of mine has. However, he did jailbreak his phone and I suspect that could be related. I don't know if you jailbreak yours but I haven't had a single issue with the phone with the exception of a half-second pause when I shutdown an app by pressing the Home button. But it doesn't happen all the time.

FYI, the maxis set I have already comes with firmware 2.2.1. I've installed various applications from Appstore, synching, used safari on 3G/WIFI, listened to music and podcasts and even watched movies on it. No hanging whatsoever. Never needed to reset the phone ever since I got it on 20th march.

Mostly u need to do a "restart" after u installed any apps b4 can properly make it working...while after ur "restart" (home+power 10 sec), then ur general > usage "the time since last full charge is empty" will restart itself...^^..same goes if u change your themes with winterboard..is normal when u face all this problem at first...so enjoy ur phone...n welcome to the world of iphone

from experience, either ur installing that time got problem (rarely but do happen) or ur usb port just hirewire, try change to another usb port. Perhaps u should restore the phone to factory setting first.

Have you "authorized" iTunes account with your MacBook? Its not corrupt, just sync back to your PC and it should work (:

thanks for all the reply..

today using so far so good... and my firmware is 2.2.1

all my applications i d/l using wifi in the Iphone App. still functions.

Can i ask if im using the same login name with my mac and pc, but when use PC my Iphone can sync application, but when i plug to my macbook it says wont allow to sync application. why ah?

and how do you end an application if it hangs?

1)Did you authorize your mac book account?

2) Not sure myself, but Itunes have the setting that normally only allows a pc/mac with the application to sync. maybe authorize you itunes can by pass this.

3) try other port of usb in mac book

yo zip! haha
still remember who i am? requad's friend

You must authorise each device you use up to a maximum of 4 or 5 devices otherwise you will lose your programs if you sync to an unauthorised itunes.

Please give that a try.

how do you authorize in itunes??
