You just need to double click the home button before you unlock the screen

Double clicking only shows the camera icon. Not the widgets.

Hopefully you backed yup your phone on iTunes. If so just go to the apps tab and make sure you click on the box next to SYNC then just choose the ones you want to sync back and boom.

Yeah looks like you are going to have to do it manually. Be sure you sync your phone to iTunes so you don't have to do it in the future again. lol.

I noticed that you can see when your person you are texting when they are replying as it shows the .... when they are replying to a message.

All updated, everything looks good. The only thing that I find a little peculiar (which may be me doing something wrong) is the calender app. When going to create a new event, the clock wheel starts at 23.00 rather than at 09.00 like it used to. I also had a few issues with the time zones of my events. I am over in the UK and my events on my phone from before the update were showing at different times (I think they were in the California time zone).

My time zone is set to GMT so I'm not sure why this would be. Anyway, I manually changed all the times and all looks okay now, but I'm still a bit confused as to why the automatic time setting for the clock in calender is 11pm rather than the morning. Not that big a deal really, but I just wondered if I had done something wrong with regards to the time settings.

No problem.

iOS 5 does NOT need a pin.

I can't believe some of the problems that are going on here for a public release. I can't figure out if it's just user error or software errors.

Strange issue. After trying to get it to update for almost 2-hours, it only restored partially. However it is currently restoring my music and videos. But, there are no name under my contacts. They are in iCloud, but not on my phone??? Any idea how to get these back???

Using an iPhone 3Gs

lots of help for my aunt thanks.

I was surprised at how long it took to "restore" the phone after iOS 5 was installed. It was as if everything (apps, videos, music) were being synced back, but over Wifi (which is enable by default, so maybe that's why the restore takes so long??).

Been playing with it for a few hours on my 3Gs. Got the camera app to lock up. I took a photo, then pressed the little snapshot icon of your last photo in the lower left corner and started browsing old photos. I pressed the blue camera icon in the bottom left to return to the camera to take another picture and the screen just went black. I can hit home and go back to the home screen or switch to another app but when I go back to the camera app, the screen is still black. I've double-tapped the screen and swiped just to make sure I'm not looking at a picture of nothing, but to no avail. Pressing volume up takes a picture (which does appear in the Photos app), but I still get no viewfinder/live preview in the Camera app.

Also, has anyone else noticed that you can't move the Newsstand app into a folder? Or is that just on a 3Gs. I tried to move it to my "Reading" folder where I keep Kindle and iBooks, but Newsstand wasn't having any of that!

Yeah this was driving me crazy! I'm not using Newsstand and don't plan on doing so in the near future so was gonna put it in a folder where I keep all the native apps I don't use like Stocks, but it wouldn't let me! So it's just hanging out on my 2nd homescreen for the moment

Why do I keep getting an error message after download. Very frustrating!

Got the camera working again. I just did a soft reset (power cycle) and it seems to be working. I'm not sure if I did a reset after the initial installation. That seems to fix most of my iOS woes usually.

How have most of you installed iOS 5? As a backup or setup as a new phone? I've heard setting up as a new phone makes it run better since you don't bring old app setting or iOS garbage but that sounds like hokum to me. I'd rather not set up all my contacts again or lose old messages.

Don't give up! Took me 3 or 4 times before it finally worked. Very busy servers are the cause I expect.
