Edit - first day instead of frost. PA, you really need to fix the edit function to allow editing for say, 2 minutes after posting.

Agreed. I remember when ios4 came out and it bricked so many iphones, or caused them to lose connectivity. This seems to have had more robust testing with the developer releases, but there can still be irreversible glitches. Apple's solution: upgrade to the 4, which was one of the phones having the problem!

46. Droid_X_Doug posted on 19 Sep 2012, 14:25 1

Going from iOS 4 to 5 had first day 'issues' as well. There was a validation server in the upgrade loop that went offline for most of the first day. The result of the validation server going offline was that the iDevice (Phone, Pad, and Pod Touch) appeared to have been bricked.

Like the new features but the maps are awful!!!

yeah... nokia maps is far more superior than this! and google map is feel threaten to this!

apple's mistake is buying a lame mapping company! but i do hope that they will evolve!!

Actually, you do have to wait an entire year to get any update at all. They only release one update a year. iFAIL.

21. darkkjedii posted on 19 Sep 2012, 12:48 3

That's so not true apple does quite a few .x updates during the year.

26. 305Bucko posted on 19 Sep 2012, 13:07 5

yes they certainly do... to FIX bugs!

5.0.1 to fix the battery drain issue caused by gps locator. 5.1.1 to fix photostream (could not delete photos) among varioous other annoying bugs.

not so much an update but a patch

oh they did make changes... primarily to bad software bugs.

updates are not always "enhancements"

android has bug fixes too. but they dont call it an "upgrade" (ex: 4.0 / 4.0.4 / etc)

I unfortunately bought my wife one and it literally hasn't changed. I can't stand how small the display is, nor do I ever want to use that thing. It's really uncomfortable to hold in the hand because of the rigid edges. She loves it though, which I am trying to remedy by any means possible. Hard to get out of that ecosystem though. And it is good for people that have tiny hands (females) and slow people. I kid!

My point is iPhone users don't care what features android phones already have, if we did care we would have a android phone. So stop crying because people would rather buy the iPhone than your precious android

now you just sound like an upset child. dont talk about jelly bean if you know nothing about it.

just because you finally got an update you feel it gives you the right to criticize other OS's. ive had 3 biggish updates for my phone in the last year but i dont then go tell others they wont see updates for there phones

Don't try to act like I don't know what I'm talking about. My friend brought the Motorola photon last year and he don't even have ics.

Android only give updates quick to the big name phone that's selling the best

Because you don't.
PS, about the photon, don't blame "Android ",blame Sprint.
Android doesn't give updates. Google updated its nexus,and that proves that android has fast updates.

You just showed how simple minded you are. Do you really think iPhone users are the only people who say that?

I can't believe you just stereotyped someone by the cellphone they own.

no but on this site its mainly apple fanatics who say stuff like that, and then start arguments and when they cant handle it they accuse the other people of hating apple etc

im not stereotyping you just on your phone, thanks to your comments i have enough information to know your very immature and very defensive and at the first sign of criticism you either say something against android or some childish mom comment etc..

I think the fastest updates I've yet seen were from Nokia after the 900 launch. Didn't even know there were problems and they had a fix for it, AND a $100 bill credit, on top of many pre-ordered phones were $50-100 off the purchase price (I got mine for free and had the $100 credit. Didn't make a payment for two months! :D )

19. Quezdagreat posted on 19 Sep 2012, 12:46 0

dude you're crazy. the map looks great, the data is provided by the best tom tom.

google came out with a youtube app in the marketplace finally. Plus theres always the mobile website, which works much better than than both apps

54. wassup posted on 19 Sep 2012, 15:21 0

The maps are meh at best. Tom tom isn't the best, Google is.
Street View is what I need apart from everything else. Thankfully my S3 has the best OS along with the best hardware out there

62. PapaSmurf posted on 19 Sep 2012, 18:09 0

The YouTube app actually works better than the mobile site. And to be honest, I just saw the new Maps app and its ugly and not worth using. Google Maps is the most polished Maps application in the world. Then its Nokia Drive.
