I've found a number of problems since upgrading to 3.0. My WIFI doesn't connect at all, and can't find WIFI networks anywhere, it doesn't even seem to search. It's also lagging quite a bit on startup and seems to hang a lot when I'm switching between apps for if I receive a call while using an app. Basically, it's what everyone else is mentioning as their problems.

I'm guessing that I'm going to need to go down to Apple (thankfully, I have one near by) and see what they say about the WIFI. One of the best things about my 3G phone is that I'm usually always near WIFI networks and it's much easier than using ATT.

What sort of info will I need for Apple to get a replacement if that is necessary, I bought my 3G from ATT a couple months ago on an upgrade, I hope that isn't going to matter.

I'm kinda disappointed that it seems so many people are having problems with 3.0, but such is life....

the downside about doing that is losing ALL of your information. If you were far on some games then you'll lose your data and its just a pain to start over like that. Apple or these developers should come up with an alternative.

I cant get into wifi at all, and youtube loads VERY slowly.

ive tried restoring and reseting just as apple said, and im nervous to bring in my phone for repairs, because i dont really use wifi or any of that, 3g gets it done.
Also, turning to landscape is VERY slow to, usually takes about 10 seconds, even in safari.

The exact reason why I haven't restored my phone.
Plus, I want to keep all of my texts, etc...

I wish you were able to restore the phone, then choose which things to bring back on the phone. I.E. You saved game data, texts, etc...

Default Voicemail message flag not displaying (Rogers)

Hi,

I am truly enjoying my 3GS for 2 full weeks now. What a toy!

When I get a new voicemail message. Nothing pops up on the screen to tell me a new message is received. I can retreive it fine, but I have to guess I have received a new message.

I dont not have a visual voicemail package.

Missed calls are showing up fine. So are SMS messages.

Anyone can help ?

Thank you,

Best Regards,

Luc.

I'm having the same problem, only I have visual voicemail.
In order to see if I have voicemails, I have to restart my phone. When I turn it back in they will all pop up. I restarted my phone randomly today, and had 5 new voicemails. Theres obviously some bug either with my phone or 3.0, because I never had this problem before updating.

Anyone else experiencing voicemails not showing up until you restart your phone?

I've had problems with WiFi as well. Generally I've had to reset my wireless router or turn off my iPhone and turn it back on again.

I've had similar issues with E vs 3G. Sometimes when I have E, I'll turn off my phone and turn it back on and then have 3G again. Weird.
