    Tell Tii - How to Fix location services if they are not working after upgrading to iOS5

    Hello Rob,

    I had the Issue where After upgrading to IOS 5 my location services would not work. 

    the Fix is to Goto settings, then restrictions, enter your chosen password, and turn on location service option.

    Why:  Before upgrading, you had the Find My IPhone restricted, so if someone finds your phone they can not turn it off.

    Hope this helps someone,

    Regards, 
    Dave Orr

    Ask Tii - Where is the iMessage App

    Two questions coming up a bunch are:

     

    "Where is my iMessage App? - and - "how do I activate it?"  

     

    First up - iMessage is not a separate app - it is more of a service that is used with the Messages app you already had on your iPhone.  That is the green App with the white text bubble in it. Yes - the same one you use to send and receive text messages.  So iMessage occupies the same app.  

     

    Now per setting it up.  

     

    You need to go into the settings app - and then scroll down to messages and tap it.  Then you will see the option to activate with an iTunes account.  Select that and put in your iTunes account info.  

     

    Now this is where another question come in - where people want to know if you need to get another iTunes account for each iOS device.  

     

    And the answer is NO

       

    After you enter the iTunes account info - then enter an email address to use as your iMessage ID.  If you have multiple iOS devices in your house and want each one to have a unique iMessage ID - then you will just need a unique email address for each.

     

    In my house we have 3 iOS devices with iOS 5 and iMessage set up.  All use the same iTunes account ID - but each has its own email address for iMessage.

     

    If you would like to try it out - and don't know anyone to try it with - my iMessage ID for my iPhone is rob@podcast411.com  So if you want to see if you set it up correct - send me an iMessage and I will reply.  And yes - I did turn on the return receipt - so you will be able to see if I received and then read the message.  But I am going to ask this - please don't send in tips or show questions to that - as I still much prefer emails for show related question and content.  It is easier for me to sort and put aside for the show.

     

    EXTRA BONUS iMessage TIP:

    Hi Rob,

    If you want to know if one of your friends/family is also using iOS 5.  Go into the Messages app and tap on an existing text conversation with them or start a new one. Before you even type anything, the "Send" button will turn blue indicating you are using iMessage, therefore they have iOS 5 installed as well. Regards,

    Lou Valencia

    Breaking news is ok however.

    How to get the Newsstand App into a Folder and off your home screen.

    The Newsstand icon is really not an iCon but more a folder.  So as such you can not just simply drag and drop it into a another folder.  Key in that sentence being simply.  As some have found a way where you can actually get newsstand off your desktop and into a folder - where many people believe it belongs.  

    Here are the steps required - Please note you need to be quick doing this:

    1. Take any two apps on the same screen as the Newsstand app and place one on top of the other to create a folder. 

    2. As the folder is being created you need to grab the Newsstand icon and quickly drag it into the folder as it is being created.  

    If you were fast enough - Newsstand will go into the folder.  If not go back and repeat the steps above.  

     

    Note - This process will actually work for placing any folder into another folder.  

    BIG NOTE -  If you try to launch Newsstand when you have it in a folder - Well iOS 5 does not like that and it reboots your iOS device. So if you put it in a folder - make sure not to open it up while it is in the folder.  I am assuming the same is true if you put a folder in a folder.

    Ask Tii - SIRI - How do I teach SIRI who my Wife, Husband, Partner, Significant other is?

    Hi Rob, 

    When I ask Siri to call my wife, it comes back with ... I don't know who your wife is ... you need to input your personal data in the setting screen... 

    I can't find anywhere in setting input my personal info. 

    Any recommendation??? 

    Thanks!

    Larry

     

    Hi Larry,

    What it is not obvious?

    Ok - maybe not.

    There are two ways to teach Siri who you wife is.

    One if via SIRI itself.

    To do this first Activate SiRi by double clicking the home button on your  4S.

    Then simply tell Siri who your wife, partner, significant other is by saying: “contact name” is my wife, partner, etc.

    There is another way you can do this if say you are somewhere you can't talk or don't have internet connection. 

    1. Go to the Contacts App. 

    2. Look up the contact that you’d like SiRi to eventually recognize.

    3. Tap the “Edit” button on the contact entry.

    4. Go to the bottom of the entry and tap on “add field”.

    5. Scroll to the bottom of the entry and tap on “Related People”.

    6. Tap the type of relationship; wife, partner, etc.

    7.  Enter the name of the person associated with that relationship.

    There now wasn't that obvious.

    Tell Tii - Issue with 2X speed and SIRI

    Howdy Rob,

     

    I use the 2X feature to zip through hours of podcasts. When I was listening to a podcast at 2X, I used Siri to make a phone call. It worked great as as my phone call ended and podcast began again it began to play at 1X even though the button on the screen said 2X. So I cycled through the settings to 1/2X, then to 1X and finally 2X and it worked okay.

     

    I found out that after you end a call just hit the pause button on your remote mic on your Apple (or other) headphones and press it again to play, it will resume at 2X. 


     

    This does bug me, but at least I can correct it by tapping my pause/play button on my headphone and get it back to Alvin and the Chipmunk speed! LOL I am really loving Siri!

    Sincerely,

    Ask Tii - What is the best way to unlock an iPhone

    Hi Rob,

    What is the best way to unlock my iPhone 4 before I sell it.

    I have version 4.3.3

    Regards,

    Quentin

     

    Hi Quentin,

     

    First don't pay someone to unlock it - Key reason - is many of those sites you see banners for to unlock - they will rip you off.  I have had lots of complaints about these vultures in the past.  There is a free app in Cydia to unlock your iPhone - it is called ultrasn0w.  And did I mention it is a FREE app. 

     
    According to the dev team it will unlock iPhone 3G and 3GS' with the following base bands -  04.26.08, 05.11.07, 05.12.01, 05.13.04, and 06.15.00.   
    it will also unlock iPhone 4 with baseband 1.59.00 
     
    To figure out your base band open the settings app - go to "General" then to "About" then scroll down to the "Modem Firmware".  As an example my iPhone 4 is at 4.10.01 - so it can not be unlocked.  
     
    Just to clarify - Unlocking means you free up the phone to work on another carrier.  Jailbreaking means you free up the phone to install apps not authorized by Apple - and to unlock - you need to be jailbroken - and then in Cydia - go to the app ultrasn0w - and if you have the right baseband for your phone - just run that app and you will be unlocked.  
     
    Let me know if you have any questions per the above. 
     
    Regards,

    Ask Tii - How to jailbreak 4.2.9 CDMA iPhone 4

    Hi Rob,

    I have a jailbroken iPhone 4 running on iOS 4.2.6 (CDMA). I want to upgrade to iOS 4.2.9, but keep my jailbreak. How do I do this?

    Thanks,

    Darrell

     

    Hi Darrell,

    Simply put - don't upgrade to 4.2.9 - There are only tethered jailbreaks available.  Stay as far away from iOS 4.2.9 as you can. 

    The latest version with an untethered jailbreak available is 4.2.8.   All 4.2.9 does is patch security holes (Read - break jailbreaking).

    So stay away from 4.2.9 at all costs.

    Regards,

    This is an invite i did for my 7 yrd old's birthday party, i used the app Half-Tone to create the six panels you can see.

    Although i'm not sure if this qualifies to be your artwork as it isn't 100% exclusively done on iOS, perhaps 90 something percent as i did use Adobe Fireworks to join them together as one image.

    But i thought you and the listeners might like to see it.

    Thanks

    Ask TII - iOS5 - How do I set up my iOS device to sync via WiFi

    Hi Rob,

    I'm having trouble with wifi sync on my ipad1. It says it will sync when my pc is available. Also the sync now button is grayed out. I have a windows pc with windows 7. Was there something I was to do on my pc? It backed up to iCloud no problem.

    Thanks..

    Larger

     

    Hi L,


     

    1. Connect your iPad to your computer via the USB cable.

     

    2. Open iTunes.

     

    3. Select the iPad under devices

     

    4. In the summary tab - scroll down to Options and select "Sync with this iPad over Wi-Fi" 

     

    5. Hit "Sync / Apply"  

     

    After that you can disconnect the USB cable and you should be able to sync via wifi.

    I created this artwork using safari for google images and found background image off of Flikr, then used sketchbookexpress for most of the work. The two apple images are old pics I saved from an apple wallpaper jailbroken app. I also used the photoshop express app to crop and resize. This was all done on my black 64 GB 3G iPad 2 running on AT&T with jailbreakme dot com 4.3.3 Jailbreak. It will be nice when we can start doing editing right from photos app. Hope you enjoy.

    Ask Tii - Issues updating to iOS 5 - unable to update to backed up settings

    Hi Rob, 

    Just wondered if any other of your listeners had my "happy" experience 
    ( not really) when trying to update to iOS 5. 

    For some reason my iTunes didn't recognize my iPhone after the update. Told me I had to restore by new iPhone or backup. Well I tried the backup restore with all of them and I got an error that said " backup error unable to restore" so in tried turning firewall and other security off, read things on the web such as manual left click on "Devices" in iTunes
    And do a backup restore from there. Nothing worked and needless to say I had to completely restore my iPhone as a new phone. This was very aggravating as all my settings and apps are like they were never touched. Thought this really su*+ed. 

    Thanks for all the great podcast and keep them coming. Great info. 

    Doug 

    Cincinnati 

     

     

    Hi Doug, 

     

    You were one of the lucky few - by and large most people had a very easy time with the update - even if it took 8 hours.

     
    You can now if you want try to go in and do a Restore from back up and pick an older back up.
     
    You can check quickly in iTunes to see if an older back up is available 
     
    In iTunes go to the preferences and then to Devices - and then see if there is an older back up from earlier in the day or past few days.  
     
    In the list you should see your iOS device - and the most recent one will just be the name.

     
    The older ones will be the name and a date next to it.

     
    If there is one there - then go to iTunes and select Restore.  And restore you iOS device and when the option comes up pick one of the older backups to restore from. 

     
    Good luck and let me know if this works for you.

    Ask Tii - Unlocking for CDMA iPhone 4S - why can't we.
    Hi Rob,

    Quick question. The 4s can be purchased unlocked but only for gsm not CDMA.  What gives. Can you explain the issues here?  I'm a Verizon user. But would buy an unlocked phone to use in Europe, but it seems like a non-starter. 

    Mitch.  
     
     
    Hi Mitch,
     
    At this point it looks more political than technical.  
     
    But if you purchase an iPhone 4S this week on Verizon - if you travel internationally - you will be able to roam on GSM - but you will be paying for it via Verizon.
     
    You will not be able to set up your own deals locally. 
     
    When Apple in November releases an "unlocked" iPhone - it will be set up to be only GSM - meaning it will not work with Verizon or Sprint.  
     
    This again seems political rather than technical - since They state that you can use your verizon and sprint contracted phones on GSM.
     
    I do expect the unlocking / jailbreaking community to stage their own coup - so to speak - and truly unlock the iPhone 4S in the future.  But who knows when that will be.

    Ask Tii - Upgrading a Jailbroken iPhone to iOS 5

    Hi Rob,

    I have a jail broke iPhone 4. I'm giving it to my wife.

    She wants no jailbreak.

    Do I just upgrade to iOS 5 and it will blow out the jailbreak?

    Thanks.

    Larmer


     

    Hi Larmer,

     

    Short Answer - Yes.

     

    Long(er) Answer  - Yes - just do a normal upgrade to the new version of iOS - and it should completely blow away the jailbreak.  However - make sure to back up before doing this. Or really for any upgrade. 

     

    If you really want to make sure all goes ok - restore now to iOS 4.3.5 - and then do the upgrade to iOS 5.  

     

    Regards,

    Ask Tii - Should I get AppleCare+ or a Squaretrade Warranty

    Hi Rob,

    The big decision left on the iphone4S is Apple Care or Square Trade. I know they are a sponsor, but Apple Care looks like they now cover two accidental incidents with the same 50 deductible as Square Trade and it is much more fun to go to the Genius bar with Apple Care, when you have a phone problem as they usually fix it on the spot. No waiting. So what do you think. Is there something I am overlooking. I will be in line Friday at the Apple store in West Hartford Ct.

    Thanks Penny

     

     

    Hi Penny,

     

    Advertiser or not I want people to get the best deal / offering.  Regardless of if they are an advertiser or not - I want the listeners of this show to make the best decision.  

     

    Here is what I know about both - AppleCare+ and SquareTrade.  

     

    AppleCare+:  $99

    As I understand it with the new AppleCare+ - you do need to purchase it at the time you order.  If you pre-ordered - you might want to call Apple now before it is delivered and ask if you can add it now if you want it.  As I am sure once it is delivered - Apple will be pretty strict about not allowing you to add Apple Care - At a min they may require you to bring it in for a full inspection before allowing you to add it.  Here is Apples link to AppleCare+:

     

    http://www.apple.com/support/products/iphone.html

     

    Per the $49 Service fee from Apple - that is per each occurance and you are only covered on up to two occurances.  So in most case this is going to be when you shatter the glass on your iPhone 4S.  With AppleCare+ you can do this twice.  Each time it is a $49 service fee (duductible).  So two breaks and you are out another $98 bucks and according to Apples T's and C's - the coverage for any more breaks will cease.  

     

    Here is a link to the PDF for the Terms and Conditions for AppleCare+

     

    Some Exerpts from their plan:

     

    ADH (Accidental Damage from Handling) coverage only applies to operational or mechanical failure caused by an accident from handling that is the result of an unexpected and unintentional external event (e.g., drops and liquid contact) that arises from your normal daily usage of the Covered Equipment as intended for such Covered Equipment. ADH coverage does not include (a) protection against normal wear and tear, theft, misplacement, reckless, abusive, willful or intentional conduct associated with handling and use of the Covered Equipment, (b) protection against any other act or result not covered by the Plan, as described in Section 4.2 below, 

     

    From Section 4.2

     

    The Plan does not apply to:


     

    (i) Installation, removal or disposal of the Covered Equipment, or provision of equipment while the Covered Equipment is being serviced;

    (ii) Damage caused by (a) a product that is not the Covered Equipment, (b) abuse, misuse, fire, earthquake or other external causes, (c) operating the Covered Equipment outside the permitted or intended uses described by the manufacturer, or (d) service (including upgrades and expansions) performed by anyone who is not a representative of Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider (“AASP”); 

     

    This last part probably means if you jailbreak and then have an issue - Apple could deny coverage.  But personally I think they would be hard pressed to justify not replacing a shatered screen just because you are jailbroken.  

     

    NOTE:  It is being reported and recommended that if you did miss out on buying AppleCare+ when you pre-ordered or ordered - you can bring your iPhone into an Apple store with in the next 30 days - probably less now - and get it added.  You can get help from any sales associate - so no need for a genius bar appointment. 

     

    SquareTrade: $99

    There is also a $50 deductible per claim.  

     

    SquareTrade will repair or replace an iPhone for pretty much identical reasons as AppleCare+.  Accidental Drops, Liquid events and other accidental damage - not from willful neglect.  

     

    You have 30 days from point of order to get the Squaretrade warranty.  They also have an iOS App - where you can get the warranty for some time after the 30 days.  But best if you are getting it to get it from the site in the first 30 days.

     

    From the SquareTrade site on how the repair procedure works: 

     

    You can file a claim online or on the phone. Depending on the issue, we will either fix your iPhone or arrange for a replacement. To fix your iPhone, we give you free overnight shipping to-and-from our depot and 80% of iPhones are fixed the day of receipt. If you prefer the convenience of your local Genius Bar, you can take it there and we will reimburse your repair costs.

    Our 5-day service guarantee: We will replace OR fix and ship back your iPhone within 5 business days of receiving it at the depot. If it takes longer, let us know and we'll be happy to refund the cost of your warranty.


     

    So you can bring your iPhone to the Apple store to be repaired - but you will be out of pocket the expense of the repair - until Sqauretrade can reimburse you.  

     

    Squaretrade has also stated in the past - that they are ok with you doing a software jailbreak of your iPhone - they will still cover you. 

     

     

    Comparison of Cons:

    Con for AppleCare+ - two breaks of the glass - and no more warranty.  You are talking about minimal costs to repair those.  So on your second break of the glass - you are better off repairing it yourself and saving the 2nd even for somethng worse than cracked glass.  If you jailbreak - there is a chance Apple will not cover you.  

     

    Con for SquareTrade - You are out of pocket the cost of the repair if you take it to the Apple Store.  At least until they reimburse you.  Also with Squaretrade - while they will do multiple repairs - once those repairs are more than the replacement cost of a new iPhone (unsubsidized) then your warranty is up.  So while it may be 5 or more glass breakages, it may only be one drop from the 14th floor balcony.  

     

     

    So which Warranty is better?  I don't think either is better than the other - overall.  But it looks like come Mid November - if you did not purchase AppleCare+ at the point of order - the comparision is all moot as your only choice then is Squartrade.  

     

    I will add this for those not familiar with Sqauretrade - they are an advertiser on this show.  And the feedback from those that have had issues and filed claims has always been postive.  I am sure it wil be similar with Apple.

    Rob,

    Great news, I have done it! I hacked my brand new iPad 2 to work with
    my iPhone 4 AT&T SIM card!!!

    Step 1:
    - Download iPhone Configuration Utility from Apple's web site (get it
    here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL851)
    - Install utility -- it installs in the Utilities directory (see a
    screenshot of the icon HERE).

    Step 2:
    Create an APN for AT&T as follows:
    - Connect iPad to your Mac
    - Launch the iPhone Configuration Utility
    - Click on Configuration Profiles
    - Scroll down and click on Advanced

    Step 3:
    Enter the following data for AT&T -- in the US -- (see Step 3 image):
    APN Name: wap.cingular
    Access Point User Name: WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM
    Access Point Password: CINGULAR1

    Step 4:
    - Click on your iPad under devices (see Step 4 Image)
    - Select Configuration Profiles
    - Select Install on the profile just created

    Step 5:
    - Place iPhone 4 AT&T SIM card on your iPad 2

    Step 6:
    - Browse/download/etc on the plan you already paid for!


    If you have any questions or need more details let me know.


    Best regards,

    Sergio

    Tell Tii - Experience with AT&T and Ordering iPhone 4S - Laurie B

    Hi Rob!

    Laurie in Frisco again.  After listening to the latest episode - I thought maybe I'd better stay w/AT&T instead of switching to Sprint as well. I talk & check data at the same time a lot.  I went to the AT&T site & pre-ordered a 4S this morning.  When I got my confirmation e-mail it stated that my phone would ship in 21-28 days (but, no guarantees)!

    I don't want to wait that long - so I stopped by my local store to see if I could cancel the order & just come on Friday & wait in line. Their answer was NO!  Something about ordering it online has already changed my account.  They wasted no time charging my card either. 

    I spent 45 minutes on hold in-store trying to reach someone who could cancel this order & the person we reached also said the order couldn't be canceled because it was already being processed.  If that's true - then why the 21-28 day wait?  Doesn't make sense. 

    Then I came home & tried to call again in hopes of reaching a manager who could resolve this for me.  This lead to another 2 1/2 + hours of run-around; I talked to 8 different people, got transferred 5 times, hung up on 3 times & I had to call back twice more.  Most of that time was spent on hold being tortured by awful mus-ac.  I finally reached a guy named Dave that could actually see my order, but needed to transfer me to the Premier General Dept. Because the order was "already in process" & he couldn't cancel it either. He transferred me & promptly at 9pm I was disconnected AGAIN!!!  Apparently, that was quitin' time for AT&T. 

    It's so bizarre.  I'm guessing they've put me in a new 2 year contract based on this pre-order & I have no choice but to stay & wait FOREVER for the 4S to ship.   

    Warn your listeners please & let me know if anyone else has had this issue & if there was any resolution. 


    Thanks!
    Laurie B

    Ask Tii - Can I pre-order to pick up at the Apple Store?

    Hi Rob,

    I can't figure out how to pre-order to pick up at the Apple store. The web site seems to be for order that will be shipped to your home. What am I missing?

    Thanks

    Penny

     

     

    Hi Penny, 

     

    Sadly this time around - Apple does not appear to be letting people pre-order to pick up at the Apple Store.  

     

    That means you are 100% rolling the dice when you wait on line this Thursday evening / Friday Morning.  However if you wait in line at an Apple store starting Thursday eveing or even really early Friday Morning you should be ok. 

     

    Good Luck getting your 4S.

    Ask Tii - Is it still safe to Jailbreak?

    Hi Rob,

    In Ep 194 - You said something about that it's not safe to jailbreak any more.

    Should I not use any cidia apps anymore.

    I have an iphone4 and ten 4.3.3. All I use it PDANet & spoof.

    Thanks,

    Alan

     

     

    Hi Alan, 

     

    What I said is that Musclenerd reported that the site - Jailbreakme dot com - was sold to an unknown entity.  So it is not safe to use jailbreakme dot com to jailbreak.  It is still fine to jailbreak - just use Redsn0w or limera1n.  But do not use jailbreakme dot com anymore.

     

    Sorry for Any confusion on that.

    Ask Tii - How long can Apple remain the leader in new tech.

    Rob,

    With the passing of Steve Jobs the visionary how long do you think apple will remain being the leader in new technology and new ground breaking products.like the iphone.

    Robert

    Hi Robert,

    Remaining the leader in new technology requires a few different thngs.  

    It requires a mindset / culture to do this - That is something by all acounts that Steve had in place prior to his retirement. 

    It also requires capitial investment in R&D - This is something Apple has done over the years and clearly is in a better place to spend money on R&D then anyone else since they have more money than anyone else.  This link is to a post talking about the massive resources Apple is putting towards the custom chips they produce.

    http://techcrunch.com/2011/10/09/apple-1000-engineers-chips/

    And it requires being able to slaughter the cash cow if you think there is something better you can do.  Apple is doing this with the iPod line.  Once the reason for Apples stock take off.  Now barely a few minutes of a 2 hour presentation. 

    So how long Apple stays in front - is really up to how long Apple can keep the culture Steve Jobs left them in place.  And with Tim Cook in charge by most accounts - that could be for a long time.  

    Regards,

    Rob W

    Ask Tii - Can you pre-order the iPhone 4S for Sprint on the Apple site?
    Hi Rob,

    I think you have to preorder directly from sprint. What do you know?
    Regards, 
    Eric Y
     
    Hi Eric,
     
    The Apple site gave two options - one was for those that were upgrading and already a Sprint customer.  That one let you pre-order.
     
    The other one was for those that were either adding a line to a Sprint account or were new to Sprint altogether. For those of us in the second group it said to visit the Apple store on the 14th - it would not let you pre-order.

    Pre-Ordering the iPhone 4S

    UPDATE 3: It looks like for new Sprint Customers - you can not pre-order - It says the following:

     

    At this time, we are only taking online iPhone orders for current Sprint customers upgrading a phone on an existing line. If you're a new customer, or simply want to add a new line to an existing account, please select this option and click "Continue".
    There you'll see how and when an iPhone can be purchased at your local Apple Retail Store.

     

    Which then takes you to this message:

     

    In order to purchase iPhone with a new Sprint account, or to add a line to an existing account, please visit an Apple Retail Store.

     

    So at least for those jumping to Sprint from another carrier or Adding a line - no Pre-Order for you.  Walkins only. 


     

    UPDATE 2: Pre-Ordering is now live -  Go HERE

     

     

    Update 1:  Engadget is reporting on a 3:00 AM ET launch for pre-ordering.  I will stay up and see if this comes to pass. 

    ---------------------------

    Sometime between 2:00 AM ET and probably 9:00 AM ET the iPhone 4S will be available to pre-order. 

     

    When it is available I will send out a push with the URL to pre-order and also update this post.

     

    Here are two links from the iPhone Pre-Order in June 2010:  

     

     --------------------------------

    If you will want to pre-order for delivery to your house you will need to go here - http://store.apple.com/

    If you want to reserve an iPhone 4 for pickup at your apple store you will need to go here - http://store.apple.com/us/go/iphone4

    ----------------------------------

     

    If the past is any indication it likely will be around sunrise on the East coast.  

     

    Again this post will be updated as soon as I have more info.

    Ask Tii - What time will the iPhone 4 be available for pre-order?

    Hi Rob,

    I am very excited about upgrading from my iPhone 3G to a 4s!

    Two questions:

    What time on Friday will they start taking preorders?

    And do you think an iPhone 4 case will work on a 4s?

    Thanks

    Dave

    Hi Dave,

     
    Last time around the pre-orders started around 8:00 AM ET.
     
    http://tii.libsyn.com/pre_ordering_the_i_phone_4
     
    Here is my post on this last time.
     
    I will be keeping an eye out for this tonight and early tomorrow and will put up a post on the main blog page going over the iPhone 4S pre-order status. 
     
    Per the Cases for the iPhone 4 working on the iPhone 4S - All indications are that the two are identical size wise - so iPhone 4 cases should work fine with the 4S.

    Why the iPhone 4S really IS the iPhone 5
    Why the iPhone 4S really IS the iPhone 5

    ...I am sooooo tiried of reading blog post after blog post about how the iPhone 4S is a marginal update, or barely an update.  Or you pick the negative retort.  Because when I sat there on Tuesday and was reading about all the new features being announced - I was thinking - Wow this is as big an update as the iPhone 4 was vs the 3GS.  So I need to ask - What are all those that are bemoaning the iPhone 4S really upset about?  Seriously - I am asking.  Because I don't have a clue what they are thinking.

     

    It actually made it to the point where I started to question my sanity on this matter - so I decided to put together the chart you see above.  

     

    CLICK HERE FOR THE LARGER VERSION 

     

    What I did in this chart was put in all the new features of the iPhone 4 vs what was in the iPhone 3GS.  And then also all the new features of the iPhone 4S vs what is in the iPhone 4.  And when I was done with the chart - I felt a lot better - No I am not crazy - the iPhone 4S really is as big an update from the iPhone 4 as the iPhone 4 was from the 3GS.  Still don't believe me - then go back look over that chart again.  Actually I find when looking at all the changes objectively - the 4S is actually a bigger update than the 4 was.  

     

    Clearly calling it the iPhone 4S - in some peoples mind is the real reason they are feeling it is not as big an update - which is pretty lame for so called tech journalists.  Sure - I would have liked to see it called the iPhone 5.  But either way it is still a major update. Some reasons I think Apple went with the 4S vs 5 name is that with the 3G and 3GS - they both had the same case.  So to with the 4 and 4S.  Also in 2012 - with the 6th iPhone (dare not say iPhone 6) - it is likely going to be LTE - it will also likely not be released until the fall of 2012 as well.  And when this 6th iPhone is released - it will NOT be called the iPhone 5 - it will be called the iPhone 4G - as in LTE = 4G.  And guess what it is likely going to be in the same package as the 4 and 4S.  

     

    I read in a post where someone said they are just waiting for the iPhone 5 - well guess what the iPhone 4S really trully is the iPhone 5 - it is just not called the iPhone 5.  Per all those rumors about teardrop packages, wider and bigger screens and 4G be it LTE or WiMax - those never made any sense this year.  And other than LTE - I don't see any of them making sense next year. 

     

    So next time you read a post about someone bemoaning the iPhone 4S - send them the link to the chart above and ask them to justify their position based on that REAL info.  

     

    UPDATE:  I updated the graph to better illustrate all the specs of the iPhone 4S.  In the graph now the top 7 iteams are all improvements vs the 4.  The last 8 items in the 4S column are all new just to the 4S.  Plus the last 9 items for the 4 are ofcourse also in the 4S - incase you want to compare vs the 3GS.  No mater how you slice it the 4S is a great device.  

    UPDATE2: iFixit has opened up an iPhone 4S and sadly it is still at 512 MB of RAM. Chart has been updated accrodingly.

    Ask Tii - What are the specs on the Front camera for the iPhone 4S

    Rob,

    The specs look great for the iPhone 4S.

    I am getting one, but any specs on the front facing camera?

    Regards,

    Thomas

    Tuscaloosa AL

     

     

    Hi Thomas,

     

    It does not look like the front camera changed.

     

    From Apples site we find the following.

     

    Front camera with VGA-quality photos and video at up to 30 frames per second

     

     

    Which is exactly the same as what they have listed for the iPhone 4 front facing camera. 

     

    So until iFixit or someone else rips one apart and says it is different than the old front facing camera - it looks like we will have to assume it is the same. 

     

    Regards,

    Ask Tii - Siri and Voice Over
    Hi Rob, 
    Congratulations on getting so many predictions correct on the iPhone 4S.
    I had a question from a reader on my blog. I hope you can help. He is married to a blind woman who is very excited about Siri on the iPhone 4S. But she uses VoiceOver on the iPhone and wants to make sure that VoiceOver will work with Siri.
    For example, if she asks Siri, "What are the best Hungarian restaurants in Tuscaloosa?" and Siri pulls up the results, will VoiceOver read the results to her?
    I am planning on testing this when I get the iPhone 4S, but they would like to know this before the launch date if possible.
    Any ideas on this?
            Thanks in advance for your help.
    Kind regards,

    Hi Carolyn,
     
     
    http://www.apple.com/iphone/features/siri.html
     
     
    In this video about Siri - at about the 57 second mark they show a blind user using Siri.  
     
    It sure looks like it will be a great addition for Blind users.
     
    More to come on this for sure.

    Hi Rob,
    Is Siri in iOS 5 or is it only in iPhone 4s?
    Thanks

     

    Hello,

    Siri is only for the iPhone 4S at this time.  It is likely the next iPad may also get it.

    But for now only the iPhone 4S has the processor and RAM needed to run it.

    Regards,
    Name Redacted.
    Hi,
    Just port your number over to Sprint and go with them for the iPhone 4S.
    What you save per month for the plan will make up for the ETF - early termination fee.
    But I think the articles above and people upset are being disingenuous - We all signed up for a 2 year contract when we got the iphone 4.  We all knew the rules and now when they don't change them again in our favor some are upset.  
    Again in this case - fine - people can cancel their contract pay the ETF and move to another carrier - where you can get the lower price. 
    But I don't think being mad at either Apple or AT&T is warranted - at least not in this case. 
    But going to a droid is just cutting off ones noes to spite ones face.

    Ask Tii - Where should I order my iPhone 4S from?

    Hi Rob,

    I'm leaving on a trip 10/15, and really want to try and get the 4S 10/14 before leaving (upgrading from 3GS).

    2 questions:

    1) any difference between getting it from Apple vs Verizon?

    2) any suggestion as to whether I'm more likely to be successful pre-ordering with supposed mail delivery 10/14, or going to store (apple or verizon) morning of 10/14?

    Thanks much!

    Hi Emory,

     

    I am in the same boat as you - I also leave for a trip on the 15th. 

     

    What I am doing and recommend you do is on the Morning of the 7th - Reserve your iPhone 4S to be picked up at a local Apple Store. 

     

    The key reason I recommend this vs the Verizon store - is there is no telling how many the Verizon stores will get.  Yes - a reservation is supposed to mean it is reserved - There was a great Sienfeld episode on that.  But if push comes to shove and there is a dearth of iPhone 4S's who do you think is getting short sheeted - the Apple Store or the Verizon store?

     

    Definitely do not go with the delivery method - as nothing would be worse than it being delivered to your front step after you left on a trip.  And even if they don't deliver it to your front step - do you really wanted it sitting in a warehouse somewhere while you are gone - it could get lost there - just seems like to much potential for something to go wrong.  

    Finally - One last reason to get your iPhone at the Apple store.  Last year when the iPhone 4 came out - I ofcourse was one of the first ones to get it at the Apple store.  When I went to my car and turned it on - I had an error / warning message about it being over heated.  I took it back into the Apple store - they quickly swapped it out with a new one - as they had extras they could do that with.  Others I heard from that had issues on the first day at AT&T had issues getting a replacement right away.  

    So figure Murphy will strike and go with the Apple store as our safest bet.  

     

    Good Luck.

    Ask Tii - How to transfer Music from iPhone to Computer

    Hi Rob,

     

    I wanted to know what program I can use to copy my playlist from my iPhone to my new computer's iTunes, since my old computer  stop working. I don't want to lose my music which I only have on my iPhone 4.

     

    Thanks.                                    

    Stephen M.

     
    Hi Stephen,
     
    Here is one that was recently brought to my attention for transferring playlists to a mac.

    There is also i-FunBox (PC) - which was talked about on episodes 83 and 97

    Please let me know how this works for you.
