Cowboys 1st Round Draft Pick and iPhone trouble

Friday, April 23rd, 2010

It had been a stressful day from the start. Dez Bryant woke up to learn that his month-old iPhone was malfunctioning, and he ended up at a local Apple store waiting hours for it to be repaired. Ultimately, he was given a replacement phone – with all of his contacts erased.

Given his reputation for unreliability, Bryant knew some might be skeptical of his story.

“Look,” he said a couple of hours before the draft began, whipping out the phone. “It’s a brand new phone. Can you believe this happened today, of all days?”

Solution to White Apple Logo Screen of Death on iPhone

Friday, March 19th, 2010

Apple’s Discussion boards are buzzing with a huge problem affecting many users of iPhone OS. People are starting to call it: “White Apple Logo Screen of Death.”

The problem manifests itself during an app install or update. During either process something interrupts the iPhone and/or iTunes from completing the task. Then the iPhone spontaneously reboots. The screen goes dark, comes back on, displays the Apple Logo, and at some point the iPhone boots and it’s file system mounts. The file system mounting is noted by two short vibrations, beeps or both. The phone actually appears in iTunes and if you have an App on your Mac like Phoneview – you can actually browse the iPhone’s media. iTunes will also display the “beachball” and stop responding. iTunes usually has to be force quit in order to get it to respond by relaunching it. The iPhone unfortunately never boots past the Apple Logo. Most users panic at this point considering the iPhone to be “bricked. “

Many people are encountering this problem regardless of whether or not the install or update is being done on the iPhone itself or from iTunes. There simply is no rhyme or reason to it and it’s not the fault of any particular App. The worst part is that since some people think their iPhones are “bricked” they return it to the Apple Store. However, replacement phones exhibit the same problem.

If you fall victim to this bug, you can send in your iPhone to Dr. Cell Phone for a complete restore on the iPhone. This is a process that can take hours because of inordinately lengthy backup and sync times. Rest assured that usually your iPhone is not “bricked” only stuck in some kind of endless loop. In order to break this loop we need to do a factory restore of the iPhone.

Dr. Cell Phone now offers the software diagnostic and repairs at all of our repair stores in Dallas, Tx and Houston, Tx. If you are outside of Texas and would like to mail it in then Dallas location is the mail-in repair facility.

If the iPhone can do video calling, will AT&T’s network handle the pressure?

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

Apple is known for keeping a tight lid on any information related to its upcoming products. As a result, rumors fly high and it’s not until the day of release or the official announcement of a new product that the public knows for sure what’s coming from Apple. To that end, it’s no surprise that the latest rumor around the “iPhone 4G” supporting video calling is getting everyone excited.

Here’s some quick background information: video calling on the iPhone has been rumored for a while, and even before the iPhone 3GS made its debut, there were rumored photos floating around, depicting a spot for a front facing camera. Well, the 3GS has been out for a while now, so the people are hoping for a refresh in the form of the “iPhone 4G”. What makes these latest rumors around video calling a bit more possible, though, is that a substantial mobile operator in the UK seems to be the source of them.

According to FSM.com, the UK’s O2 has updated its latest iPhone plans and in this update is the addition of prices for video calls. While that might be enough to get the rumors really flowing, the system files in the latest SDK are also showing the ability to do video calls.

All signs are definitely pointing towards video calls coming–at least to the UK. The bigger question will be whether or not AT&T will offer the video calling and if it does, will the network be able to handle it?

Recently AT&T mentioned that it wasn’t worried about its network’s ability to handle the traffic from the iPad since it figured most people would use it on Wi-Fi. With the next generation iPhone potentially offering video calling, one can only assume that AT&T will once again be called out for its network capacity issues.

As an iPhone user I would like the ability to do video calling but definitely don’t want to see my quality of service suffer. It seems that my iPhone is finally working the way I need it to on the AT&T network, but with the introduction of the iPad and the potential of video calling, my iPhone will no doubt suffer the consequences.
