I'm hoping to install this soon. I'm a registered developer, but use my iPhone at work too. What I need to know is if people are having MAJOR issues with the basic functions. I can handle rebooting the phone once or twice a day. I can't handle having the email or phone simply not work.

So, as people work with the following functions, can you report if you have problems?

mail (incoming, outgoing)
phone (dialing, voicemail, signal strength)
ipod (music, videos, movie rentals, podcasts, volume issues)
apps (3rd party apps -- which work, which dont)
MobileMe (does syncing work right? calendar? contacts?)
Camera (syncing to iPhoto work ok?)
Safari (does it crash all the time)
iTunes (does syncing work right? what about backups? do they take forever?)
 
Netnewswire-Works
Tweetie-Works
Facebook-Works mostly. No pictures are showing up for contacts

Calls-Outgoing Working/Incoming Working
Mail-Working
SMS-Working
Safari-Working
Mail (Exchange and MobileMe) Working Also a search inbox feature now!
 
So far, every app I've tried works, including:

100sounds (my app)
PocketGod
NowPlaying
iDice
FreeMemory - surprised it worked, even freed up some memory
iStat - again, surprising
Google Earth
GL Golf
iSteam
Wobble... maybe I should've kept that one to myself
Urbanspoon
Zenbound
 
Youtube wasn't working. Restored and did not backup, instead set up as new phone. Works now.
 
Youtube works for me. However, I haven't restored from my backup yet. I'll report back and see if that's why it's not working.
 
iCopter (seems to work fine)
Cameraman (Main Menu screen is distorted, crashes when you return to main menu from game)
Crash Kart (seems to work fine, however the graphics are CHOPPY!)
Cube Runner (Choppy like Crash.)
Dactyl (seems to work fine)
Enigmo (seems fine)
Facebook (No pics)
Fieldrunners (seems fine)
Four Free (seems fine)
HoldEm (seems fine)
Knots (seems fine)

Myspace (seems fine)
Netnewswire (seems fine)
Twitterrific (seems fine)


I'll edit and add more later.
 
iMob doesn't work. The menus are inaccessible.

edit: just checked and my YouTube works just fine. I did an upgrade (not a clean install) when I installed 3.0 this morning, if that matters.

Photos - doesn't work correctly. Unable to drag/move zoomed pictures. Oops, Apple. ;)
 
Photos - Yep once zoomed they don't move. (Actually if you release one finger slightly before the other one the photo will move slightly to the side of the unreleased finger. Slightly, Very Slightly.) This has to be an oops.
 
Byline - works, minor visual formatting issues, but functional
Shazam - works normally
Cube Runner - visuals are maybe slightly choppier, but it's hardly noticeable and doesn't affect playability
Facebook - doesn't show user pictures, but works other than that
YouTube - doesn't work if you restore from a backup (which is what I did), does work if you set it up as a new phone (supposedly)
TwitterFON - works normally
BeeJive - works normally, even shows profile pictures in Facebook Chat, something the Facebook app won't do haha
Sportacular - works normally
Wikiamo - works normally
Urbanspoon - works normally
i.TV - it's a buggy program to begin with, so it's hard to say if the issues are due to 3.0 or just it's normal issues haha. could just be my cable provider's listings.
Blocked - works normally

Did you even try to use beejive for more than 5 seconds? It crashes so easily. Its unusable.
