I still think that the Vigor will be better than the bionic. I'm gonna wait. I also don't find motorola phones that attractive anyway, HTC's are better looking and better in general.
One thing I have noticed is that system updates/app downloads take infinitely longer on my Iphone than on my Incredible. It's annoying.
Oh yeah, I forgot about you carrying around an iPhone this week. Any other comments?
Okay, this seems like the best place for this question. My wife got me an iPhone over the weekend to replace my Blackberry, and I'm about to throw the damn thing out the window. I understand that it has all these cool apps and bells and whistles to hold my schlong for me as I take a leak, but how the fuck do I simply customize the actual telephone and e-mail notifications?
All I want to do is set up different call/e-mail/text notification profiles that vary the ring/vibration/silence depending on where I am (home, office, court, meeting), and also have it give me the badge notification of a new e-mail without chiming (so it is not chiming 500 times per day due to listserv e-mails but I can still see there are e-mails there without opening the e-mail program). I've wasted hours trying to figure out what should be these simplest of tasks (including looking for apps that do it), but I can't figure it out. This is a telephone, the ring profiles should be the first and foremost attribute, just like they were on my blackberry and even flip phones I've had in the past. Am I completely blind? Or is Apple too concerned with me being able to launch a space mission from this device that they don't care about me actually knowing I have an incoming telephone call?
Yeah but when I turn off the e-mail chime it also turns off the badge notification. Maybe it is not supposed to do that?
Thanks, I'll see if those guys have any answers. Otherwise, I think this is going back and I'll see what other phones are available.
ETA: a search of those forums indicates that notification profiles were not available as of 2009. I'll see if anything has been updated, but I find that utterly idiotic, though I guess not unexpected given the general perception that Apple is not the right platform for business.
Does anyone have a rough date when the IPhone 5 is going to be out? My old IPhone is on its last legs and I don't want to get an outdated model if the new one is right around the corner.
Here's a question: when I turn on my Charge, the volume during boot up (sounds like things are exploding in space) is outrageously high. Is there a way to turn that off, or at least down? Even when media volume is set low, the boot up volume is crazy.
No clue, but I bet if you Google it, other Charge owners will be discussing it in a forum somewhere.
I have. The only answers I've found are rooting the phone.
