I heard they released iPhone OS 4.0.1

Now I am one of the millions NOT having a signal strength problem, no matter how I hold the phone. I honestly tried to get the problem to show up, I made sure my skin was making contact across all antenna surfaces and could not duplicate the issue.

I hooked my iPhone 4 up to the computer to update some content and was expecting to see it tell me the software update was ready.

All I got was this ....
Software Version: 4.0

Your iPhone software is up to date. iTunes will automatically check for an update again on 7/22/10
 
Still There

Attempted update earlier. It gave an estimated time of 2 hours to download so I left and came back closer to 3 hours later and it still said 2 hours. I quit it and restarted and it immediately went to a 2 hour estimate again and hung up there for about 15 mins. I just ended it and figured I'd come back later. Don't want to risk it screwing up my phone! :eek:
 
Did you actually click to check for an update? Mine didn't pop up, I had to manually check.

No and in my past three iPhones I never had to do that.

I'm not looking to do the update, just wondered why it did not show up automatically as it has in the past.

My phone is working flawlessly so far.
 
My phone was working perfectly, but I decided to do the update, anyway. I plugged up my phone, clicked check for updates (or whatever the piss it says), took three hours to download it (which was odd), & everything went flawlessly when I installed it.

You're not missing out on anything. I wouldn't worry about it if I were you.

It checks for updates every seven days. Updates are not "pushed," so you need to click "check for updates" if it hasn't checked lately. I don't remember it not being this way.
