Just noticed today that there is a rotate pictures option in photo albums app once you click on image and hit the icon on the bottom left which brings up the options. On 4.3.1

......is your phone JB'd by any chance?! My iPhone 4 is also on 4.3.1 and there is no such option of 'Rotate' in the photo app??

Can other people on the same version check if they have this too?

EDIT - ....actually - it may be possible that this option only shows with pictures that are in Albums and not in Camera Roll. I only have pics in my Camera Roll (don't have any synced Albums) - can someone confirm?!

I just updated to 4.3.2 from 4.2.1 and find my phone to be kinda slightly slower.. the zooming animations when opening/closing apps are skipping a lot more than they did before

Not able to rotate on 4.2.7.:eek:
 
I just noticed when I get a group SMS text msg.. it shows the names of the people it was sent to.

I didn't know that.

Argh, you still can't clear a single number from Recent Calls? You can only Clear All.

So annoying!!

Stop trying to hide your calls from someone and this takes care of itself :)

Sorry, had to do it.

^ Kind of arrogant really. Some of us would like to keep a concise log of calls - and not limited to just 1 number - in the call list. This was a simple screenshot captures this and eliminating unrelated calls is just prudent. This function was there in 3.1/3.x I believe yet its been recently removed.
 
OK, so I copied a tracking no. into my notes today and went to copy it into the online tracking section in the browser. If you press and hold the tracking no. in notes it now comes up with an option to track package!! Pretty cool!
 
yeah!! i get more hidden features. thanks you very much for you posting :)

anyone know of an app (legit or otherwise) that enables you to easily toggle between Edge and 3G?

seems like this would be very handy to do quick internets stuff 3G and then go back to boring Edge to save battery.

anyone?
