This is a true story, it happened about 6 months ago and I thought I should share it with you to avoid what happened to my iPhone. (Temporarily of Course)
FIRST OFF, the number 2 things you shouldn't do, (that I did)
1. Blast music through your tiny iPhone speaker in the graveyard. (Why did I do that...I was so not smart there.)
2. Ignore the expected, using my iPhone IN GENERAL was a bad idea too, And I'm going to explain why.

THE STORY:

My friend and I went to this tragic cemetery, All these poor people, I wanted to believe in Ghost's, EVEN IF I DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING, My iPhone acted very strange, after I started playing the music out there in the middle of the cemetery, (So dumb) My iPhone suddenly starting this HORRIBLE LAG, Like the iPhone was underclocked to 30MHz, It WAS HORRIBLE, The music skipped and then abruptly stopped, I couldn't even exit to my home screen, THEN all of a sudden I get a text from a friend who wanted to go but couldn't, I tried to reply, but the screen was pretty much unresponsive, and we heard a noise, so we run outta there!
And when we left for the sidewalk, IT WORKS PERFECTLY, NO LAG, MUSIC worked when I pressed play.
But It serves me right, I had no business in disturbing those poor spirits that just wanted to be left alone.. But it wasn't any problems with my iPhone, it was on the 1.1.4 firmware, LOCKED of course.

Thanks for reading, What are your thoughts?:eek:
 
Yeah, it's normal. Steve said it was one of the features of the Iphone, he said the Iphone being such a great device, it also had to be respectful. So he told his minions to add all cemetery's of the world, to the maps application. In few words, the Iphone knows when you are in a cemetery, and disables itself.

I hope this helps. We care
 
OMG!!!! :eek: Your iPhone is haunted!!! Take it back to the Apple store and demand a new one. Tell em it's infected with spiritz! Or, if you don't want a refurb, you need to gets it's demonz exorcised!

On a lighter note, if this happened 6 months ago, why are you telling us now. Man, I would have ditched that piece long ago. Due to the GPS on it, the ghosts probably followed you home.

Your all so RIGHT!
I should have posted this a long time ago, Was it 1.1.4? AH!
Or was it 1.1.3?
UGH I CAN'T REMEMBER!
 
why post something that happened to you 6 months ago.

go back there with the 2.1 firmware and see if it does the same thing.
 
Dear God, I have a problem, please help me! :(
FINE THEN! I will go back there.
With friends too.
 
I don't drink alcohol. Ever.

This thread is so completely stupid that I will now commence to drink alcohol until I lose consciousness in the hopes that, along with the rest of the night, I will forget ever having read it.

Bottoms up.
 
If your phone magically was given the power of copy and paste, let me know and i'm moving into that cemetery
