you can't there is not even an option for it!

I think you're misinterpreting what I'm asking. I know you cannot send MMS (there isn't even a way to do this right now), I'm asking what happens when we RECEIVE an MMS.

so i'm finally done restoring my back up and putting my media back on the ipod and i found some new features/differences. i'll keep adding to this as i find more.

• on previous versions, whenever i restored from a back up, the original apple applications would go back to the position they were at before the restore but the app store applications wouldn't. now, app store applications go back to their position from before the restore
• applications no longer install on the first page, even if you have an open space. it automatically goes to the last page.
• also, if you only have one iTunes account tied to you're iPod/iPhone, you can still re-download apps on the fly without paying again.
• the push notification settings for mail has been moved to the mail, contacts, and calendars menu in setting instead of being on the main settings menu.
• the options under "Add New Field" when inserting a contact is not segmented and you can now add important dates (i.e. anniversaries, i think this is new but i'm not sure) and you can am IM usernames to contacts
 
I was wondering if anyone was having trouble viewing previews of movies from the itunes store. It says "movie format is not supported". I find that strange since the store is made for the iphone/ipod touch, it would have a preview in a format compatible with the device(s).

if you already have it, how do they know you didn't pay for it? do they look into your iTunes purchase history or something?

Good point, but for all we know there might be a slight update to the build version next week.
 
Alright, I'm probably just stupid, but I'm having troubles.

I downloaded the file, un-zipped it and was left with a folder called "iPhone1,2_3.0_7A341_Restore.ipsw". I then opened iTunes, option-clicked on Restore and navigated to said file... and can't select anything.

Help?

Are you on a Mac? I just put mine in the "Downloads" folder, made sure to sync my iPhone one last time, clicked "Option", Restore and selected the file from the download folder. Ran into a little hiccup during the restore though. When my phone re-booted, it thought my phone was brand new and gave me the choice to register the phone for the first time or restore it. I chose restore not knowing if it was going to restore 2.2.1 or 3.0, but it restored from 3.0 and seems to work pretty well. Damn location box keeps popping up though for all the applicable apps every time I go into them (Do you want to use your current location) Other than that, works great so far.:D
 
Downloading right now.

I hope it doesn't brick the mess out of my phone but everyone else says it's working so I'm crossing my fingers.

i thought landscape was supposed to work on all apple applications. youtube isn't going into landscape and it gets annoying because in youtube you have to keep switching back and forth from portrait (while browsing menus) to landscape (while watching a video)

that's true.

that's true.

I'm pretty sure it said Apple apps with text fields get landscape mode.
 
To anyone who is thinking about trying this, I can't stress enough, make sure your phone isn't jailbroken, make sure you have the latest version of iTunes and above all, don't forget to sync your phone one last time to itunes
 
This is really irritating and I've had the same problem nearly every time I've tried the "restore from custom ipsw" method. The only way I was ever able to get around it was to restore my device and have iTunes download the file for itself. I'm not sure how to get around it with this because iTunes won't download it for another week...

I'd love to see a solution for this.

From what I understand is your ispw is automatically detecting itself to a zip file or rar file.... So when u try to shift select you wont see the file...

The solution I can think of is ... my computer > Tools > View > then uncheck hide extentions for known File types .... now go to the ispw and remove the .zip or .rar file type...

This might not help you ask I might have not understand your exact problem.... But give it a try...!!!

What i did was go into safari settings and made it so it doesnt automatically open up the file as a folder. Now when i go under my downloads i just right click and change it from zip to ipsw

works fine for me!
 
I am tempted to get it now, but I love the anticipation of waiting until next wednesday!

The feel of anticipation I think is so much fun!

Speaking of which, when does Apple normally post updates? Will it be on iTunes at 12:01 am next Wednesday? Pacific or Eastern?
 
Man my biggest wait is A2DP .... Did anyone try stereo bluetooth streaming from iphone.... I have been waiting for this for so long ... Please someone confirm .... If it works I will get the GM now ....
