iPhone iOS6 question for all you experts....

Why the fuck does my phone give me an alert sound but no alert message every fucking 20min?


Fucking Apple! I want Jobs back! Someone ressurrect him!

Did you get new phone or just Os6?

Ghetto iPhone 4 ($99 when Siri came out)

I think I figured it out.

The Mail, Contacts, Calender thing has a button now that says Fetch New Data.


It was ON.


I think if it's on, it'll still "ding" when it updates the mail server thing, even though you have the fucking Notifications turned off.

I'm still on iOS 4.2.1 and have no intention of going to 5, much less 6.

He came back to create a superior product.....

I think you all need to continue using Apple products. They are perfect for you!

I plan on using my new iphone5. I compared it to the Samsung and it is a better product IMO.

But he said he cameback as an item, not to create the item. Also did he come back as one phone or all the S3s? Theres too many layers to this "joke".

He came back as the prototype that they build the S3 on. Have fun with your iPhone. It suits you all.

Have fun with the inferior S3. Not everyone can be a winner!

Jobs did nothing at Apple except wear turtleneck sweaters. He was willing to spend his fortune on destroying Android. Never worked and probably never will. You can sell more products because there are more idiots on the earth that would buy crap but really destroying Android. Then you need a superior product wich Apple will never have.

The only problem I see with the Android platform is the ability for Android to cross platforms.

This creates a programming issue every time a manufacturer creates and markets a stronger, more advanced product.

It's almost like an oxymoron, but every time a manufacturer comes up with new hardware, Android software must be continually modified to support that hardware and take advantage of the new hardware's abilities.


In the case with Apple... You get ONE, and only one hardware platform. It's old, maybe backwards, but software providers don't have to do much aside from releasing their stuff and not really having to worry about different hardware configurations.

This allows software people to easily market their apps for the Apple market, whereas Android... Android has 100 different versions of the same software for the 100's of hardware configurations.



Other than that... Android has the capability to be more dynamic and cutting edge... it's the software app providers that have to spend more money to keep their apps competitive with the different hardware.




Apple seems to be much better with apps for the disabled, though.... and I've spent money in the Apple app store, which I don't want to necessarily want to repeat if I went to an Android phone.

Android users love their phones so much they hardly use them.

can you provide a date on when that graph is used from? that just might be relevant.

looking at recent data, your chart is probably pretty old

It's about 6 months old. The url will tell you everything you need to know.

unfortunately i am not digging through some website that is primarily a general web news blog to find data. i linked up directly to a highly informative page that does this kind of tracking as its main business.

it shows your pie graph as rather innacurate.

Your data is probably showing unique users. Mine is showing actual usage. Mine isn't counting grandma who logged onto AARP once last month from her free android device.

Bottom line is iPhone users actually use their shit. It is more profitable to work with apple. It is easier to use their stuff. They have far superior customer support and product quality.

two completely different stats. i suspect one site counts wifi vs non wifi or something like that.

considering the lead apple has in the tablet space and android is far behind, including that data or not will change a lot of numbers, and most ipads are wifi.

i spend a shitload more time browsing on wifi on my tablet than i do on my phone.

apple will do fine, but they are losing ground to quality android products. they don't have the best camera anymore, and the worst maps app of all the mobile phone OS's now. and the android OS is simply becoming as fluid as iOS.

You clearly do not understand the underlying technology and neither does the author of this article. There is no denying Safari's use as significant, but to surmise all that you have off this pie chart is hilarious.

Also, you should read your own articles....

To compile its results, Net Applications collects data from the browsers of visitors -- in this case, the mobile traffic -- to its network of more than 40,000 Web sites -- so it's not measuring overall market share. Only the number of unique visitors are counted, and only one unique visit per site per day. In total, around 160 million unique visits per month are tallied in the results.

edit: for clarification

good catch.

the site i linked:

"StatCounter is a web analytics service. Our tracking code is installed on more than 3 million sites globally. These sites cover various activities and geographic locations. Every month, we record billions of page views to these sites. For each page view, we analyse the browser/operating system/screen resolution used and we establish if the page view is from a mobile device. For our search engine stats, we analyze every page view referred by a search engine. For our social media stats, we analyze every page view referred by a social media site. We summarize all this data to get our Global Stats information."

Also, I'm not trying to be condescending to burn, but it's articles like that which really throw a level of ignorance out there. It really would require an explanation of how the development environment has evolved over the past 6 years in both the android and iOS platforms to have an understanding as to why these numbers will never be accurate.

The real bottom line is that both platforms offer great experiences. iOS allows you to live in a box, which is great if you enjoy that box. Android users live outside of a box, which is at times more treacherous.

edit: perhaps I should be drinking less... edited for more clarifications - sorry fellas

what do you think of windows mobile? man i think as a mobile OS from scratch it is probably the best of the bunch. they just need more app developers onboard. shit if i was MS i'd spend like 4 billion just to have app developers get onboard.

i'd strongly consider switching to them if they had more apps. even with my investment in android.

Windows mobile has one of the absolute best ux designs- the presentation and transitions are just phenomenal. I don't think that platform gets enough attention at all.

However, you are 100% correct in identifying the problem, lack of app developers. However, cross platform development to the rescue! With web standards and the maturity of html, css, javascript (and all subsequent libraries like jquery, sencha, etc..) I think you'll find most application develop start to be truly cross platform whether it lives in a mobile browser or in a solution like phonegap (which wraps those applications in native app). Thus giving life to these brands with mass application selection

Strictly my opinion here: The smartest move for microsoft, blackberry and similar manufacturers (amazon kindles, nooks, etc.) could do is to press for this concept of cross platform development via phonegap and others solutions. It really is the only way to attract application development.

This iphone5 is WAY better than the S3 I almost got. Glad I didn't get it

The iPhone 5 is waaaay better than the SG3. I have it on good authority. (Unless it is only better than the one he was gonna get. Hard to tell with the way he worded it)

It's better built. Feels like the materials are superior. The display is much crisper on the iPhone. The cameras were the same in quality on the S3 and iPhone. Speakers are similar. I like the smaller size of the iPhone. The iPhone seems snappier than the S3. I like the apple maps. Music is great on the iphone5 as its always been. I like the newer browser now. It opens the same thing on all my devices.

S3 is nice. But glad I stuck with apple

I prefer to be able to update to the latest OS despite what my phone's creator or mobile operator says I can do with my phone.
