I am the opposite. 5 mins into using the phone i realized why i jailbroke my iphone 4 years ago before selling it. Tried to download an app (skype?) from the apple store and it wont let me... 50mb restriction, had to use wifi. Wtf? i have 6gb plan bitch. hate these stupid rules. its got nothing to do with free cracked apps, i just hate Apple's "my way or the highway".

try updating to the ipad baseband and then downgrading using redsn0w, then use ultrasn0w. just did it for a frnd's 3GS, worked like a charm.

yeah i booked my genius appointment for sunday since i work today....with the nick/scratch on top i could just get a case but i also spent 900 bones on this phone so i assume it would be perfect out of the box...question is if i go to the apple store to replace what are the chances they have them in stock? plus what if i open another one and its even in shittier condition? can i just keep on switching it till i get a perfect one?

Think you'd be better off switching to white iPhone since it seems like the coating is really weak on the antenna.. Only released a day and many people complaining about it already..

to all the PM me for sim activation they are all done. those that have issues ie had to do a plan change coz compatibility issue i PMed each one. turn on/off your phone thx. those on fido not getting LTE. try reset your phone and make sure you were activated thru itune and not wifi.

Hows the line? How many phones are you getting?

If you don't mind... If they hand out cue cards can you pick one up for me? 16gb black.

Exacty how I feel. Once you jailbreak, it's hard going back to stock.
With a 6gb data plan, on a stock OS, I hate how you view YouTube videos in crap quality on 3G opposed to wifi.. Had to use to unrestrictor to get around that

Any of you going to Rogers today? Can you please let me know if they have any stock on the blk 16gb. My status with Rogers reservations has been in progress for the past 3 days. Had it shipped to oakridge but haven't received a call from them. Thanks

I never got a call from Fido. My time was wasted when they had the phone on hand and said they would call me first before I can pick it up.

I lined up another time, person at the counter asked if I got a call or email. I just said yes. Phone get.

Tim Budong 09-22-2012 09:39 AM

The scratch issue is a grey area if you take the phone to genius. Someone I know had it switched three times LOL

Nabatron 09-22-2012 09:44 AM

^^wtf thats fucked up! That is pretty insane I would have to say! Well I'm going to exchange it till its fixed. Since all of us here paid our hard earned money for a product not to come in poor condition upon arrival. It's good the apple store changes them out I have'nt had a bad experience with there customer service as of yet...

HonestTea 09-22-2012 09:48 AM

Anyone know the current line up situation at Apple Stores? lol

BaoTurbo 09-22-2012 10:17 AM

Anyone know the line up at Rogers? Reserve list? Anyone?

Anandtech has more benchmarks up, and this phone rips.

AnandTech - The iPhone 5 Performance Preview

Boy do Tegra 3, Mali400 and Adreno 225 blow as GPU's. Adreno 320 is looking good, and is pretty equal with A6 or A5X (slightly faster in some tests, slightly slower in others).
