Activation is back up…it was for me at least! Enjoy, everyone!
Acyivation server down??? Why cant this be as easy as:
- Download
- Install
- Enjoy
???????
Come on Apple, you cliam to be sooo easy but having an activation server to verify some crap is too much!
Anybody know where the battery indicator is.?
3.0 works fine for me. the only thing that is annoying is why ATT decided to secretly have us wait until late summer to give us MMS. DUMB!
WICH APPS ARE PUSH READY……. NONE!!!!
HAHAHA THIS IS UNREAL. I WAS HAPPIER WITHOUT THE 3.0
TALK ABOUT UNNECESSARY HYPE. THE ONLY THING I GOT WAS A LANDSCAPE KEYBOARD AND VIOCE RECORDING HAHAHA AWESOME.
I WANT MMS NOW NOT IN 4 MONTHS AND I WANT TETHERING.
WHY WOULD I BUY A 3Gs SO I CAN RECORD VIDEOS AND WATCH THEM MYSELF AND NOT SEND THEM TO ANYONE OR SEND ANY MMS FOR THAT MATTER.
THE iPHONE 3Gs THE WORLDS MOST ADVANCED SHITBOX (let’s have a magnetometer and a accelerometer with no MMS hahahahahahahaha WOW FUCK AT&T
I think its very funny that people believe AT&T will try to upcharge MMS on the iPhone. Yet AT&T has not upcharged ANY service for the iPhone. Data plans are the same rate as any PDA/Blackberry device as well as the messaging plans are dead on the same. The only thing that is different is that APPLE requires the data plan with the phone.
AT&T already stated why MMS isn’t supported at the beginning. I do not have a link to the article but it was on Boy Genius and it refers to an opt out code put on every iPhone account since launch 2 years ago.
I’m jacked as I updated my iPod Touch to the 3.0 OS and immediately checked to be sure it worked with my Anycom BAR-10, which has the Stereo Bluetooth profile. HOWEVER, for some reason it will connect, but will simply not play music or sound altogether…. What’s up with that????
To be sure I was using the bluetooth profile correctly on the iPod Touch, I paired it with with my Motorola S9 HD stereo headphones and it worked fine. So, why won’t it work with my Anycom BAR-10 device as I use that in my car all of the time!!! Any ideas/help would be greatly appreciated, otherwise why is this not working???
FYI – the link below is for the device I am referring that is A2DP compatible!!

Iphone OS 3.0 = epic fail!!! what a joke, so i guess all the 3G users that arent available for the subed price will have to only have landscape text, spotlight search and voice memos, what a joke!!!!!!!!
@Joe De La Blanco,
can I still do the AT
man, i am with you.. fuxx ATT
whatever excuse they have , it is fuxxing BS
fuxxing joke
@ “I paired it with with my Motorola S9 HD stereo headphones and it worked fine. So, why won’t it work with my Anycom BAR-10 device as I use that in my car all of the time!!!
Obviously it is not an iPod, it’s your headphones…
FIX! WORKS!
At the point at which the software is being extracted (assuming you have been able to download it) turn off your internet connection.
The software installation then proceeds without a problem.
At the point at which you get the message saying “can’t connect to the itunes store” turn your internet connection back on. Then unplug the usb, plug it back in and it it will reactivate.
WILL THE 3Gs ALLOW MMS OUT OF THE BOX? (STUPID QUESTION I GUESS IM JUST HOPING)
IVE BEEN WAITING ALL THIS TIME FOR A LANDSCAPE KEYBOARD HAHAHAHAHAHAHA WOW THEY SURE SEEN ME COMING
A couple of quick comments. One, I just updated my iPod touch (gen 1) no problems.
The shake to shuffle on music is kind of cool, the unified search is nice. Haven’t played with copy/paste yet but that is a big deal, regardless of wishing it was available months ago.
Also, the Google Maps update is sweet (previously unavailable for the iPod touch), and I esp. like the workflow ease of looking in my immediate area, searching for a restaurant by name, seeing it on the map, clicking, seeing street view and then being able to add to address book.
All of that said, I want to put a bow around fact that this release is somewhat akin to a “block the kick” by Apple to keep developers from even contemplating developing for Android, Pre or Blackberry, so most of the feature adds are to drive developers to do even cooler stuff.
That may seem like a “SO WHAT” if you just plunked down $9.95 for the touch upgrade (as I did), but when then next 50K apps roll out, and a quarter of them take advantage of things like hardware accessory support within apps; multi-player gaming; add levels/stories/virtual goods, the new mapping and media APIs, you will be a happy camper.
If you care about such things, here is a post that I wrote on the topic:
ANALYSIS – iPhone 3.0: Block the Kick Strategy

Final note. Many forums are bemoaning server delays, lack of app store access today.
It’s nature of the beast, when 10M people (a guess, figuring 25% out of 40M devices) simultaneously try to access and download a big fat binary, so expect delays.
If that freaks you out, wait until tomorrow. It’s not like they will run out of software.
Cheers,
Mark
No video update included?
^^Jackass
Hey shitface David Thande, go fuck yourself.
Where is the PUSH update!!!!! They demostrated it during the conference. WTF!!!
Hey James, after I sit on your moms face, I’ll go fu*k myself with images of you in rapture!
has anyone had their Iphone corrupted by a bad 3.0 download today? After the download, my phone’s screen won’t turn off after non-usage and my mail won’t stay open.
D-
What problem did you have to fix with the 3.0 download?
Pretty funny David Thande, especially coming from a seemingly shit for brains internet geek suffering from alcoholism.
That’s the short story of your life isn’t it hotshot?
D.
The issue is not with the Anycom BAR-10 as it works flawlessly with the Sony Bluetooth Dongle (TMR-BT8IP) with my iPod Touch, as well as my Blackberry!!!
