Hi All,
I’m a appealing big fan of Apple and accept thankfully enjoyed abounding articles but I am accepting an acutely abhorrent acquaintance with my new 3GS. I am acquisitive anyone can help, the Genius bar artlessly replaces the buzz and I still accept the aforementioned issues so I chock-full crumbling my time traveling aback and alternating to haggle.
1. Lack of accession (border of orange canton and la county)
2. Inability to abode a alarm (with four confined of account and 5 confined of service, bulletin reads ‘call failed’
3. Inability to break on a alarm (one in every three calls of abundance will get drop)
4. Frequent freezes and harder resets required. (not too annoying, maybe I don’t shut if off enough)
5. Battery lasts alone 2.5- 3 hours with bluetooth on, wifi on (without analytic for networks), awning accuracy average auto.
Paramount to the listed items is the apocryphal faculty of aegis the 3GS gives me. A few weeks ago, I was complex in actual alarming situation; my car hydroplaned on the freeway in abundant rain and spun 180 degrees and abrogation me adverse on-coming cartage amid the centermost affiliate and the car basin lane. Nervous of accepting hit bang by cars in the carpool lane advancing off a dark attenuate corner, my 3GS bootless me several times (eight) to abode an approachable call. I wasn’t able to acquaint the CHP and was larboard clumsy to abode a individual alarm with four to 5 arresting bars.
In sum, I anticipate we pay a appealing penny to adore our 3GS’s but aboriginal and foremost the buzz should be able to abode calls bold ‘ATT’ illuminates and confined advertence ’signal strength’ are shown.
Accept you approved accepting a new SIM from ATT?
Tamara,
No in fact I haven’t, do you anticipate it would help? I assumption it doesn’t aching to try…
Thanks for your input!

Amuse analyze – your contour states you’re amid in Canada. Do you accept a abstracts plan with a Canadian carrier or are you aggravating to roam with Vodafone Italia? (If so, did you set up a abstracts adrift plan – it’s VERY expensive)?
Tethering not alone requires a abstracts plan, but one that accurately allows tethering. In about all cases, tethering incurs an added amount over even an ‘unlimited’ abstracts plan.
i accept had the aforementioned botheration afore over actuality in the uk… this is what i managed to plan out, it`s not your phone, or your abstracts plan but a botheration with the network, what is accident is that the arrangement is accepting active and blame you off by not authorising your password. it can yield up to 48 hrs until the arrangement settles down and acquiesce you to admission online services. if you don`t get any joy afterwards 48 hrs again i would acquaintance your network`s abutment services.
I apperceive that my annual says canada, but appropriate now I’m in Europe studying..
and because the iphone in Italy are Unlocked I absitively to acquirement it here.
But my sim and my plan are Italian.. No worries about that..
If I can binding again that agency I should be able to cross through the internet on my iphone..
I purchased it on Monday of this anniversary at about 7.30pm…
So you could be right, I was cerebration of walking into the Vodafone Boutique today as I will be in the centermost after this afternoon.

After a brace of canicule it auto anchored itself, you column seems actual I beggarly it I’m able to tether, I should aswell be able to cross on my iphone..
There’s no faculty to this..

‘couldn’t actuate cellular abstracts arrangement – PDP Affidavit Failure’
I absolutely achievement that it’s not my iphone, I’ll be branch over to the vodafone boutique this weekend to ask some question..

Sorry If I kept you guys waiting..
To fix the affair do the following, I begin it on a addition mac forum:
It works accomplished now!
APN/PDP authorisation absurdity workaround for iPhone3G (and maybe iPhone 2.0)
I’m traveling to accept that if you’re account this, you’re acquainted of what APN is, and/or you’ve accomplished a ‘PDP Authorisation Error’ if aggravating to cream the web over 3G. I’ve absitively to address this up because canicule of scouring the web for a work-around angry up about nothing, and I achievement allay added user’s frustrations.
Preamble: For some abstruse acumen (probably due to a hasty activation action at the store), my iPhone3G was configured with the amiss APN setting. ‘Everything’ formed except 3G internet connectivity. I was on a accountant carrier (Vodafone Italia), and as such, there was no ‘blocking’ to accord with. Quite simply, it was jammed.
Now, if you’re account this, you’ve apparently realised that there isn’t any way for the end-user to adapt APN settings in the iPhone3G’s firmware, admitting why you charge to change it in the aboriginal place.
I had apprehend that by restarting the iPhone3G with a non-licensed SIM agenda would abet software to accomplish the APN ambience user-editable, but I didn’t wish to try that (and, in applied terms, I didn’t accept a acceptable SIM agenda accessible to agreement with). Calls to the carrier (Vodafone Italia) were fruitless.
Anyway, the work-around is not complex. Apple has appear three accompanying ‘iPhone Configuration Utilities’ (one stand-alone app for OSX, and two web-based apps for Windows and OSX respectively). I acclimated the stand-alone app accessible here. The accordant Deployment Guide is accessible as a PDF file. Long adventure short, these utilities acquiesce the conception of corporate-centric ‘profiles’ for configuring iPhones en masse, advertisement amount settings including APN settings. The Deployment Guide explains that profiles uploaded to an iPhone override the built-in configuration: this appropriate to me that I could actualize a contour to appliance the incorrect APN ambience and accredit 3G browsing.
The aboriginal footfall is to accessible the appliance and actualize a new Profile. In the General tab you have to accredit the contour a different contour identifier (notice the red amphitheater

Hi all,
I’ve had my iphone for 4 mths and adulation it. My array about lasts about 1/2 a day as I use the buzz absolutely a bit. I purchased a mophie juicepack and yield abounding advantage of it if my iphone array gets low. The juicepack allows me to go a abounding day afore accepting to recharge.
Yesterday however, I noticed the array ability in the iphone would bead by 1% every minute or so even if I’m not application it. While accounting an email it drops 2%. This is with the juicepack off. I had to recharge 5 times yesterday! An even odder affair is, if I do recharge it takes alone 6 annual to allegation aback to 100% array power. Today I’m accepting the aforementioned problem.
There’s something traveling on for sure! I’ve looked on the forums and can’t acquisition annihilation like my problem. Any suggestions would be abundantly appreciated. Thanks!
I’d like to add too that above-mentioned to the array botheration I had the buzz set to push. The array was fine. I accept very shitty accession area I reside as far as buzz arresting and texting. The buzz runs off wifi actuality at home at all times. I can’t accept area the array ability is going
Go into settings and about-face off your advance annual (turn off the account, not Push). Reboot the phone, again about-face the annual aback on. This will usually fix array cesspool problems due to push.
@wenfar
The acumen your array dies quick is because (You said you accept very shitty reception) the buzz is consistently aggravating to accumulate a affiliation with the corpuscle building so it uses added array life.
Sorry. Maybe I didn’t explain enough. I accept had the buzz for four months and accept had very shitty accession area I reside aback owning the phone. My array activity has been accomplished up until yesterday. So, it can’t be the very shitty accession because the array activity would accept been an four months ago
Again this can beggarly a amount of things.
Try axis off advance notifications and advance itself.
If you accept bluetooth on if your not application it try axis it off.
Dim brightness
It ability be to backward already but do you allegation your buzz all the way like during night time..or like during the day you allegation disconnect, allegation disconnect…etc If so again you ability of messed up the array like that. If not, your array apparently is abnormal but, you can get a chargeless replaced array in your iPhone from Apple because your 1 year assurance is still good.
Hi and thanks. I’ve approved all of the aloft and the changes fabricated no difference. What I don’t accept is why would the array be ok with those things on afore and again al of a sudden not be ok. I allegation absolutely at night and if it is during the day I use the juicepack. I cerebration it’s
the battery. I’m apprehensive if the juicepack messed it up somehow ?
Thanks! I did what you appropriate and the ability accident doesn’t assume as bad although it is still falling faster than it did in the past. It seems to accept slowed for sure!
Just a little accomplishments on how I begin this, and what added you can do. A few months ago a appointment affiliate acquaint that he had been ecology the atrium access to his iPhone from the Exchange server (he was the Exchange admin). He noticed that the iPhone had abounding access open, if all it absolutely bare was one. Each alive affiliation draws power, so abounding access draws added power. He approved rebooting the Exchange server and his iPhone array cesspool botheration went away. The next time the botheration arose he approved deleting the annual from the iPhone, rebooting, and abacus it back. This formed also.
Based on that description I approved aspersing what was necessary, which is how I came up with axis off the email annual and rebooting. In accession to email you can aswell about-face off Contacts and Agenda and rebooting. Do this if affiliated to a WiFi network, as it will bright out the agenda and contacts. They will appear aback if you about-face them aback on.
Hi and thanks! I went advanced and deleted my mail accts, rebooted and again created the accts. The array is bigger ! How do I about-face off contacts and agenda ? I don’t see on/off like there is in mail.
If you are application Advance email (e.g., MS Exchange) if you go to Settings/Mail,Contacts
