Visually that size increase is hideous, mostly due to the fact that the step increase isn't consistent between bars 3 and 4. Blind designer much?
Got a tip for us?

Thanks. Don't have an iPhone 4 yet (still on 3GS), but will be getting the white one for my wife when it comes out (if the proximity sensor issue is fixed).
If you have proximity sensor issues return your phone for a new one!!!
The proximity sensor problem is bad hardware in some phones, bring it into the Apple Store and they will replace your phone.

This might actually be funny if they'd ever promised a fix for the grip problem.
The proximity sensor is not a flaw it is bad hardware, people have returned them to the store for a new phone and did not have the problem after that.
There doesn't have to be. A 4.x version is more for new features (and considering this is a beta), it will only contain back-end and GUI updates. We need to watch out when 4.x.x appears. I can only imagine this update doesnt include any baseband/radio updates.
Please people, don't get excited. We all know there's some serious hardware defect and a software update will not magically make it disappear.
The software part of the signal fix requires a modem firmware update. (The modem contains the signal processing algorithms.)
There's no fix yet.
IF this is true, why are people getting multiple phone replacements that all do the same thing?
That's because those same people set over realistic expectations for this update.
And update that never mentioned or promised to fix the antenna issue to begin with.
I think ANYTHING apple does short of giving away free bumpers is going to infuriate people. Especially the DUMB media.
Been looking around and I don't know if it had changed before but the game centre has an entirely new look.
Hmm, I liked the old one. more apple like
make sure you 'update' (not 'restore') in iTunes, if that doesn't work put your iPhone in restore mode. But it really isn't worth the effort, trust me.
I am having way worse signal issues with this upgrade. I could only deathgrip to 1 bar previously and now I can easily deathgrip to searching with no signal. Also experiencing way more dropped calls.
My proximity sensor issue seems fixed. It is way more sensitive now. I can make the screen idle during a call with just barely hovering my hand above the sensor.
