Why, I am a iPhone owner, who is this thread for then?
He's trying, but his posts are just paltry and sad.Oalvarez, your off-topic posts are funny. Its almost as if you care about what goes on in my thread.
Wired said:The iPhone contract is unusual in bundling many separate agreements into a single contract. It comes in six parts, including agreements regarding AT&T's phone service, the iPhone software, the iTunes software, the use of Google Maps and of YouTube in addition to a user's consent that an e-mail from Apple "will satisfy any legal communication requirements."
I'm sure this is just an extension of the NSA program described at this link. When you sign on with AT&T, you sell your soul to the devil. :evil:Russian hackers found a built-in function which sends all data from an iPhone to a specified web-server. Contacts from a phonebook, SMS, recent calls, history of Safari browser - all your personal information can be stolen.
At present there is no additional information about this issue. Researches assume that this function either a debug feature or a built-in backdoor module for some governmental structures. Anyways this function can be used by a trojan-developers or activated by the AT&T.

aren't they great? yes, i know hard you and your pals are trying to keep this most serious of threads "on topic." heaven forbid what might happen if it strayed just a "little bit."
the iPhone might suck but its suckage almost pales in comparison to the clippings i provided you. poor guy can't even turn on his device!

Thought my iPhone died
Just picked it up and pushed the bottom button and nothing happened.
I tried hitting every button and nothing, hooked it up to the wall charged, the computer, nothing.
Finally I just held the bottom button and the top button and finally a little silver apple showed up on the screen after about 5+ seconds of holding both buttons down. Then my custom backgound showed up with the slider and everything appears normal.....wierd though.
Battery was at half charge.
Has this happened to anyone?

Hasn't happened to me. Glad your iPhone is not dead, though.

Same thing happened to me...I had to look on the apple website to try and figure out how to restart it. Lets hope it doesn't happen EVER again. I was quite nervous.

its possible you turned it off, or it got turned off accidentally. But who knows for sure! if it happens again, i would say you have a battery problem.

slider problem?
I was having problems unlocking my phone but just tried rebooting after reading this same forum. Held both top and bottom buttons for a few seconds and it seemed to work. Hopefully I won't encounter any further problems.

This happened the first day I got it. Just a simple reset and all has been well since.

it happened to me a few days ago. i thought the iphone ran out of battery, as it was close to being drained. but going home, plugging it in did nothing. panic set in, but i looked up how to do a hard reset, and it turned on. the iphone's been working fine since (fewer crashes even).

just happened to me too
thanks to this forum, I figured out how to get it going again, but it had been charging for quite a while (like hours) and it's only about 2/3 charged...any thoughts? Does it take up a lot of batt power to do the double-button routine?

Happened to me the other day while listening to the ipod. Just quit and appeared dead. Very concerning that this is happening. It wasn't warm to the touch when it happened either and the battery was charged.

yes, mine died while the battery was charging. suddenly got black screen of death. but followed the advice on this thread to press top and bottom buttons together, which brought up the silver apple icon and then straight to home (no unlocking). what's interesting is that it was charging the whole time while black, because the battery was dead before I plugged it in, and then it went black, and since I could not get it on I just left it plugged in, and after I read this thread and got it back on less than an hour later, it was almost fully charged.

We get it...you don't like the iPhone hype and deaf ear some folks turn to the problems that crop up...no different than the Treo fanboys that scream "My TreoXXX never resets"..."My TreoXXX has great earpiece volume"
Why does this have to be a crusade for you and so many others here? If an iPhone does what some folks want...fine. I find my satisfaction in a Blackjack...so what? You find satisfaction in over-sized HTC devices (or more accurately, ultra-ultra-mini notepads)..again...so what? Give it a rest man. Be thankful, Mick still ain't found no satisfaction after all these years...
Best idea ever!Jack, Mobile, lets prove a point. Lets stop participating in this thread to see what happens. I did for a few days and perhaps attributed to randomness, the thread turned quiet. You know, like children crying for attention, you leave them alone long enough and they'll cry themselves to sleep.
Just for my own education, is this "5 years ahead" thing something someone actually said? (other than archie).
Steve Jobs"Software that's 5-years ahead of what's on any other phone."
10:04 am, ibid"We want to reinvent the phone."
10:44am"Today Apple is reinventing the phone. How does this stack up? Let's look at the competition..." Treo, BB, E62, Q... comparing mail, contacts, calendars, web... "Let's see the web, we tried to make it look as good as we could. And this is what you get." Comparing music..."
9:51am"It let us create desktop class applications and networking, not the cripled stuff you find on most phones, these are real desktop applications."
Not really. I looked at the transcript here at Engadget.wow. you guys spend a lot of time analyzing that stuff?
wow. you guys spend a lot of time analyzing that stuff?
You asked a fair question and I gave you a response and citation.Well, Malatesta, yes, if I knew to start with the transcript. I had no idea where the quote came from. I assumed it was someone on the board.
Next time please don't bother doing any work for me.
Which certainly implied that"wow. you guys spend a lot of time analyzing that stuff?"
