iPhone 2.0 Firmware (5A347) Available Early

I installed this update to my iPhone this morning and it has been working great, but for some reason, the update added the app "Contacts" to my iPhone. That usually is only for the iPod Touch (because of the lack of Phone capabilities).

Is this normal?

Same happened to me except none of my data is synced with the phone. That, and my visual voicemail doesn't work.

Changed my mind



Shift key for Windows users.

THANKS!
I couldn't figure out what the hell option was.

option + click will do it.

Do PCs have this?

Is AIM supposed to be working?....or do i have to wait until this update is officially released?

AIM.ipa is working fine for me. Everything is where it should be and I'm able to send/receive IMs.

Same happened to me except none of my data is synced with the phone. That, and my visual voicemail doesn't work.

That's odd. All of my data/content synced and my visual voicemail is where it should be. You might need to re-enter your voicemail password.

2.0 Fixed all the problems I was having with my car's Alpine iPod deck. (Base cut out at high volumes, iPhone forgetting where I was last time I was in the car, shuffle reverted to alphabetical song listing after first song, hitting back now goes to the beginning of the song instead of the previous song...)

That and the AppleTV remote make 2.0 well worth the update

update

If I upgrade my phone to 2.0, and decide I have made a mistake can I go back and restre it to 1.4 so that it can be jailbroken and unlocked? Or will this stay 2.0 after I do it?

So you clicked the upgrade button, not the restore button?
Thanks

Steve

Yes. Option-Click check for upgrades then find your firmware. It is Shift-Click on windows.

yes, but were you searching by name or clicking an appstore icon?

Is anyone having issues with receiving phone calls?
No one can call me, but I can call everyone just fine.

You're quite opinionated, considering you're the bonehead who seems to think that original and 3G iPhones will be using the same firmware...

Mind telling me why that's not possible? It's not hard to write API calls based on hardware specs. Why maintain two different code branches? That would require two different development teams.

Feel free to prove me otherwise, sucker.

You mean like when I plug in my iphone on the dock? How it just pops up? Yea...mine is definitely not doing that.

Do I have to have bluetooth on or anything?

I installed on my original iPhone and it worked. Data still there. and I just downloaded Super Monkey Ball.

arn

so how's it in real.. like how are the graphics and everything? comparable to PSP or the PS1 perhaps?

Ugh, okay so this is what I've done so far:

1) Downloaded the firmware (iPhone1,2_2.0_5A347_Restore.ipsw). It downloaded as a zip file, and then proceeded to auto-unzip, so I had a folder -- iPhone1,2_2.

2) Tried Option-Clicking, to install on iTunes, couldn't find the ipsw file.

3) Read up that I needed to zip the folder back to a zip, and then rename an ispw.

4) Tried re-zipping the folder into iPhone1,2_2.ipsw and then iPhone1,2_2.0_5A347_Restore.ispw.

5) iTunes would not update from either ispw file.

6) Tried restoring directly to the file. Restore broke.

7) Reset the computer, disconnected/reconnected iPhone. Tried restoring again. Nope.

8) So I just restored the phone back to 1.1.4. Everything's as I last synced it last night (lost a couple texts, but not a big deal).

Any suggestions?

you need to be on the same wireless network as the computer

You can't downgrade to 1.1.4 once you've upgraded to 2.0

It's done over WiFi... make sure you have sharing turned on in your iTunes preferences. Not that i can get past the passcode bit though

 

[Eric Lewis]

its now in iTunes 2.0

 

[App1€]

How do I backup information just hit sync? Cause I have done that and thought I was doing it right, but when I got my new iPhone from the genius bar it didn't have any of my contacts?

Also what are the New Zealanders using if 2.0 isn't out yet?

are u on a mac or pc. if mac the problem is that safari automatically unzips the file when you download it. go to safari preferences and then in general, deselect the check box for "automatically open safe downloads". then redownload and once its done u should have "filename".ipsw.zip. simply delete the .zip part and use this to do the option click restore thing

No issues with current 1st gen iphone, early upgrade. Install went with relative ease. I followed the instructions here:

xp machine >

1. Downloaded new itunes
2. did a final synch
3. downloaded new fw
4. upgrade (took ~ 12 minutes)
5. iphone came back up factory default with signal/full activation
6. for some reason new contacts icon was placed on third desktop, where it would have been if pre-upgrade desktops were not wiped
7. Itunes auto-recognizes the device as needing a restore or new phone activation (nice!)
8. restore competed, to include SMS and previous visual vm (heard rumors that this would not be case. very pleased)
9 Tried to get the remote control app in app store, and prompted to go to purchases in itunes to get it via synch.
10. Itunes check purchases says istore is temporairly unavailable

I want some apps!
