How many of you have bit the bullet and installed iOS 16?

Been on the RC for over a week so no drama today.

 

[tomtad]

Just gone for the Deep Purple Pro on Sky Mobile. Arrives this Friday apparently 🤞

 

[BillGates1969]

Yep couldn’t wait until Friday.

Got to create a lock screen now

Also finding haptic keyboard strange so turned it off for a while.

Didn’t know there was one lol until you just mentioned it (haptic keyboard) so I just turned it on lol.

Haptic feedback on the keyboard is a total game changer 🙂🙂

Does anyone know who Apple will use for shipping the iPhone?

DHL and DPD. Luck of the draw which you’ll get

iPhone 3G was my first too! Back when it was exclusive to O2, so I got the phone from an O2 shop. Albeit this was a month or so after launch.

Apparently I did the same, because I just found this relic while going through old stuff!

I got my first iPhone on PAYG on O2, they allowed me to unlock it so I used it on Three

@lyesbkz reading your doc there looks like you had unlimited data on O2! Back in the day what a rarity

I’m not getting any of this?

You need to turn it on. Sound & Haptics.

When the iPhone first came out you could only get it on O2 and with a special iPhone contract which was always unlimited data, it was the internet phone after all. I had the original iPhone and the 3GS with this. Then it changed when they opened it up to all carriers.

Mine has always been turned on but I’m not feeling any difference since updating.

Delete - fixed it. Thanks also fixed my Mail sounds lol didn’t realise they’d turned off they’ve been off for soooooo long

Do we have a media section of this thread? I wanted to see pics of all the leather cases that people have bought. I don't know how far back it is. The colour on the packaging is different from the case so these pics would help a lot.

Yeah. Have to keep in mind that, back in the days of 3G, people probably weren't managing to burn through hundreds of GBs of data a month! I wonder what the average data use was on these phones.

Before the iPhone there was the almighty Nokia N95! Kept that for 3 years before eventually getting the iPhone 3GS.

Very interesting!

Hi all. Joining the bandwagon with a 14P 128GB Deep Purple through EE. Took a break last year on the 13 and joined here with my 12 64GB in Blue.

I have some EE 20% perks and discounts if anyone wants one?

Can I have one please?

 

[sahajesh]

I doubt this is true. I think the phone's sensors can tell if you're in a fast moving vehicle even if you haven't set yourself in any mode. Unless you have a source for this?

I heard this on a podcast, either one from Relay FM or ATP - in any case, the link from Apple here didn’t indicate a need to enable the Driving focus mode so that’s good.

iOS 16 didn’t fix my new Mail notification sound loss 😢

Gave up with those email app a long time ago, it’s terrible

 

[Jadesharp1992]

for anyone that has lost male sound, you need to go into settings, mail, notifications, customise notifications, and then you need to go into each account, and make sure that everything is switched on. They’ve changed it around ages ago. Hope this helps!

 

[Zari]

Anyone ordered from Currys? They said that the expected delivery date is 16th but again has message depending on the stock. so fingers crossed....

My order says ships by the 16th. Said the same for launch day last year and I got it on the day 👍

 

[Macsidia]

Good morning all, we're another day closer to getting our iPhones!

Good morning everyone, if you’ve been running the betas of iOS 16 or watchOS 9 now would be a good time to remove the beta profiles as tonight iOS 16.1 and watchOS 9.1 betas could come out. Have a great day 👍
