iPhone Bugs

You have no idea what Safari is going to do with your web pages. Sometimes, I'll put the phone to sleep overnight and have the page still there in the morning, and sometimes it'll clear a page and have to reload after five minutes.

It doesn't really have to do with time; it has to do with available memory. iPhone only has 128 MB of memory (and it doesn't use the flash for virtual memory) so once it runs out of that, it'll clear out Safari pages and reload them when you scroll to them again.

Given that some background processes run on it, this may happen even without your input or action. Not much to be done about it except adding more memory (how come no one is putting "more memory and a faster CPU" on their iPhone 2 wish list?)

The camera glitch where pictures taken only show up in the Camera Roll as little blank grey outlined squares, that once clicked on, crash the camera app and send you sailing smoothly back to the Home screen.

Yeah, had the same thing. I went to the Apple store and they told me it is due to some data (my settings or something) that was screwing up the phone.
They did a restore, but not from a backup! A fresh restore to factory settings and the camera works now.

Voicemail doesn't work over bluetooth under 2.0

I just crossgraded from the official 2.0 software 1,2 to 1,1 firmware on my original iPhone without a hitch, but this problem occurs in both firmwares:
When I listen to a voicemail with my bluetooth headset connected, the phone doesn't give me an option to play it back through the headset. It only shows the 'speaker' button in the top right. In the previous 1.1.4 'speaker' changed to something like 'sources' and allowed me to listen over bluetooth. Anyone else seen this?
BTW: when I put 1,1 on, I did a 'clean' install without restoring from a backup.
 
locate me doesn't work on my 2g phone. ive reset, restored etc. but it was fine on 1.1.4

any solutions or anyone else have this?

I've noticed that if you try to position the cursor using the magnifying glass in text that is near the top of the screen, the magnifying glass will be off the screen. Anyone else have this issue? It is rather annoying because generally when I'm positioning the cursor the text is near the top of the screen because the keyboard is taking up the bottom.

I've noticed a similar but different bug: I was trying to position the cursor using the magnifying glass in text near the top of the screen, just as you were... but my problem was there just wasn't any cursor. I could move the magnifying glass around and view the text enlarged, but there was no visible cursor to position.

I tried several times, disengaging and retrying, but didn't get the cursor. I scrolled the sceen a little so it wasn't at the very top, and voila, the cursor was there and I was able to position it just fine.

I haven't been able to duplicate the problem again, though, but it definitely happened the one time, and I'll be keeping an eye out for it happening again.
 
I have the same problem!
it only works on wifi, but then it will locate me completely wrong.
it did work friday though, but not anymore

Email Crashes everytime i send a message

Everytime i try to send an email from 2 of my 3 accounts on my iphone , the email app crashes and puts me back on the home page.

Also Microsoft Word opens everytime I plug my iphone in to my laptop.

Three times now this has happened with 5 bars of signal. The signal will totally drop and the phone says "no signal" - just dropped it entirely. Then I reboot the phone, and it says "no sim". I reboot again, and same message. Reboot again, and it locks in 5 bars of signal, no problem.

Today is the first time this has happened - it's been perfect before now. Anyone else having this issue at all? Sounds like it could be hardware or software related.

I am having the same problem. It started this morning with 1-2 bars, then all of the sudden, NO SERVICE! I was like WTF?!?! I shut the phone down completely and rebooted, worked fine and has worked fine most of the day.
 
The ring volume slider is not saving correctly. i put the ring volume to max, turn off the phone, turn it back on, and i go back in the sound settings and notice the volume is half way. wtb fix!

bug in text input (mail, notes, etc.)

Here's one I had made a thread about:
https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/522371/

Start a new email. Then write anything you like and end with a period. Now, immediately after the period (no spaces) enter any capital letter. Then hit backspace. It should just delete that last capital letter. Instead, it goes on a deleting spree erasing everything you've written unless you stop it quickly. To stop it you have to hit shift (up arrow) and it will stop.

For example, type:
Please fix this bug Apple.Q

Then hit backspace to delete just the Q. It will, then keep deleting everything before it unless you stop it with the "shift" key.

Doesn't seem to always happen, but I was able to get it to work on the first try. Interesting.

Yes, same problem on my iPhone. Wiped out two emails this way. This doesn't help when getting familiar with the keyboard.

BTW, why won't the keyboard do Landscape when typing emails? The keys will be larger, which will make it easier to type.

Exchange ActiveSync will not push new messages to folders OTHER THAN the Inbox.

that may not be a bug, it maybe by design. even in Windows Mobile you have to choose folders to sync. If you click on one of the folders on the iphone it will then sync that folder, but it does not auto push to them that I have found, but again I think that this is be design and not a bug.

Confirmed with my iPhone 3G 16GB
 
Hey guys I'll keep it short.

Have an iPhone 3G synced with my Google contacts.
I'm from The Netherlands though so I have addresses like this, that's how we do address formatting in Holland:

(Street name) Imastreet 31
(Postal code + city) 1124 GB Amsterdam
(Optional, province) Noord-Holland

It syncs to a contact, I open the contact in my contact application, tap the address and Google maps opens, but it puts "Verenigde Staten" (Dutch for United States) after EVERY address!! It drives me nuts because I have to correct it every single time because the app can't find this address in the United States (doh it's in Holland).

I already tried putting "Nederland" instead of "Noord-Holland" so it knows sure what country to fill in, but still "Verenigde Staten" is put in.

Anyone has any helpor idea how to report this stupid bug to Apple? I would like to assist them in reporting this so..

Greetings, Daniël B.

Ah Ha! So that's what causes it! Mine has done that a couple times while typing email but couldn't figure out how to reproduce it. Just tried it twice and it did it both times.
