<3 my iPhone

e92ttaz2 · 11-10-2011, 10:02 AM

OMG! Iphone sucks. Not used to a phone that just works. Going back to android cause I miss the factory data reset.

reprod · 11-10-2011, 10:34 AM

I pass on both Android and iPhone... I've got Android now and I'm jumping to Windows Phone 7 next.

Bring me my phone Nokia...

rbocc13 · 11-10-2011, 11:23 AM

User error...guess you dont have an idrive or as many on here say RTFM

dassub · 11-10-2011, 11:48 AM

Wow, lots of Android hate here.. I love my Android device, and it actually costs more than an iPhone.. ah well.

hey bud, I want the phone to Vibrate WITHOUT having a ring/alert when it is not on silent, and not vibrate when it is on silent.. and if your so smart, go sit down and try doing that and you'll see it does not work

but I figure it out, I had to record silence (or buy a silent ring tone) and set this as the tone, because simply choosing "none" in text tone, the phone will not vibrate when on non silent, even if the vibrate is chosen. so I have selected vibrate, and this silent tone I downloaded, now it vibrates only without making any alert notification sounds on non silent.

Tap the "Settings" icon and choose "Sounds."

Step 3
Slide the On/Off switch to "Off" under the Silent heading to turn off vibrate completely if desired.

maybe you should get an android if you cant figure out how to do that.

love my 4S. LOVE :P

Kuch335 · 11-10-2011, 12:04 PM

sorry, but i'll take my 4g HTC droid over any 3g iphone any day.. and i can upgrade my own damn memory w/o needing to spend another $100 on a phone for 16gb

Syndicategt · 11-10-2011, 12:05 PM

Cannot opperate iPhone = should not drive a BMW. You must be one of those C&D writers who cannot opperate the iDrive and give it bad reviews.

* FYI - I use the Jitterbug phone

Why your phone problem is posted on a BMW forum is beyond me.

why? this makes no sense

just turn off vibrate and click the side button to silent. no sound/no vibrate? turn vibrate back on. vibrate/no sound. or just turn volume all the way down? what am i missing??

bob.g · 11-10-2011, 12:32 PM

the iphone isnt special anymore. there are better+cheaper phones out. i ditched mine recently and got a samsung galaxy s2, and its awesome. ppl are just sold on apple now, so they have u all by the balls.

going back android.

do you have the tech capabilities of an 90yr old? no wonder this is your first iphone.

if you don't know how to use it then ask before you complain.

Go to settings. Go to Sounds. It becomes clear that you can turn OFF vibrate when on SILENT.

Random though...why would you want sound ON if you don't want to hear your ringtone? You just want to hear the clicks of your keys? microsoft logic fail.

Wut?

Having the phone "vibrate without having a ring/alert when it is not on silent" is called having the phone on vibrate, and when you have the phone already on vibrate you can go into the settings and turn vibrate off to just have it on silent always.

It's not Apple's fault you can't navigate basic phone menus

335 oClock · 11-10-2011, 12:58 PM

hey smart ass

I want my phone to vibrate and not have a tone while I am working. this must of been the smartest thing you have thought of and are proud of yourself, too bad you are wrong and useless
