According to the first polls, iOS 4.1 finally fixes iPhone proximity sensor problems. Due to this problem, many times the calls we made were cut off since the sensor did not perceive well the distance between the ear and the phone.
There is also a great improvement in the iPhone 3 speed, which, although not as fast as with previous versions of the software, opens applications, messages and photos faster. Also, it crashes less times.
I, I have noticed that it possibly has more coverage ?. At least yesterday I had to make calls from a place where I normally had a single line and yesterday I had 2 and at times 3. And nothing at all was interrupted, and that I have it without a cover.
Has it happened to someone else?
There are rumors out there that the latest version of iOS 4.1 fixes the antenna problem. Apparently several people have already confirmed it, although I can't quite believe it.
I haven't installed version 4.1 on my iPhone yet, waiting for the JB to come out. When I install it I'll check it out for myself.
I use an iPhone 4 and just when I updated it I made a call and the same thing happened to me, the screen was activated and I pressed the speaker with my ear, then the facetime and I don't know what else, so to fix it a little xd
I have verified that no matter how hard I try to cover the antenna, the coverage does not drop
The sensor issue has not been fixed for me, I still have problems. Maybe if I cut my ear ……
Believe me about the antenna, my coverage is not going away
I see it and do not believe it !!!! It is true about the coverage, I had not noticed, but you are right that it has improved considerably, and no matter how hard I try, it does not lose the coverage bars!
The sensor thing ... It's still practically the same, I think, although I haven't tried it much either.
I don't have an ear and the speaker also activates ...;)
I have noticed that since I have installed 4.1 the battery lasts considerably less than with iOS 4.02. Does it happen to anyone else?
On my iPhone 3G - 8 GB, iOS 4.1 has greatly improved the speed. It is much more agile, not as much as with iOS 3.2 but very light. When the JB comes out and you can install some application to improve the speed SUPER.
I have kicked dozens of times on all forums against the sensor failure, and now, on my iPhone 4, it is gone (all wood for now).
I have also noticed an improvement in coverage. This weekend I will do the final test at 600 meters high, away from antennas, in the usual place.
With a catapum year Siemens I have coverage if I touch it, hands-free.
With my former iPhone 3G I also had hands-free.
With the iPhone 4G and firmware 4 it exceeded the coverage of the 0g.
With the same iPgone 4G and firmware 4.02 it had the same coverage as the one brick of number 7.
The ami sensor is good for me, tb coverage and the battery lasts as normal
Let's see the coverage is still the same ... but before if there were 4 lines of coverage and you got into the room or in other places with less coverage, all but one would go down but in reality it would only have to go down 1 or 2 it depends, because it was not precise the subject of lass lines… now yes !! XD
The coverage bars keep lowering me ... My **** what if it is true is that my calls are not cut off and for example before in the elevators I could not speak and now I am.
The proximity sensor I have not tested yet.
Greetings to all
One question are you all updating the ios without the jb ???
It doesn't fix anythingoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ...
jong ...
is that the sensor problem is so bad that all of us who have it do not mind updating the ios without there being a jailbreak yet .. but I notice that it continues with the same problem ..
The sensor theme is still not working properly. Several conversations have been cut off to me. And as for the battery, it is incredible to hit a downturn.
I am honestly very disappointed with this update.
I think the sensor is better. The coverage thing is the same for me.
What in my case has gotten worse is that the Iphone4 now takes more than twice as long to turn on ... It is not a big problem, but it surprises me ...
From what I see there are more broken sensors than others. I hope that the sensor of my mobile does not go cascando more.
I think the update has worked with those less bothered sensors. When the iPhone is started, the IOS detects the specific level of sensitivity of the sensor (worth the r.), And according to that level it acts by delaying the switching on of the screen. If the sensor is very cracked and does not enter the sensitivity range, the fix they have done in IOS 4.1 does not work.
I'm a programmer, and I know I'm speculating, but there are the people with the problem. I don't see any other solution than changing the terminal to those affected.
Does anyone have the yellowed photos? that has me very scratched ...
well ... what happened to the sensor and the cover? Go, comment pringaillos that I do not know if to update
I am still very clear that my 3G is not going to test any version of the IOS 4, no matter how much they improve they will not be faster. That 3.2 and I prefer a more "simple" and faster phone than a slow brick with many flourishes (not to mention hangs up).
I will explain what happened, I think we go: they have not warned but they have fixed the coverage (but since they were not sure they have not warned so as not to look bad again). If you do the test you will see how the bars only go down to a maximum of 1 but the telephone connection does not go down because when going down to 1 they have made the 3G connection disappear at that time and go to gprs or even the internet connection disappears, which causes coverage to rise or stay. Try it and tell me. Greetings.
Hello everyone, I have an iPhone 4 updated to version 4.1 and to make it clear: THE SENSOR DOES NOT WORK !!!!! I am so fed up that I'm going to the samsun galaxy s !!! It seems incredible that with what it costs, every time I receive a call (and there are many a day) the happy iPhone always makes it to me, I suppose that there will be people who do well, but I do like the ass. I feel cheated but fabric. And I'm waiting for the update like a Mongolian, and everything so that it goes as in 4.0.1.
Good luck with your iPhones !!!! Before a phone that is hyper beautiful / cool fluid ... in the end what fails is the most basic ... as a phone.
Greetings to all!
I hope the problem is fixed for all of you, from the first day I have not had problems with the sensor, the other day I did notice that I had problems with the bluetooth of the car which is a parrot 3100 and now it does not work for me, I know They cut my calls if I use it, but well it's not important because the truth is that I use the car a little, but it fucks me with the hands-free of the motorcycle but hey for now I'm not going to update to 4.1 just for that. I said that everything is fixed. regards
@manuel maybe you did not read the contract well, to be an apple user you have to have faith as in any religion and endure hard things, then paradise will come, the promised land, heaven, but while you are on earth you have to suffer.
@jobs I see already…. but is that having faith ... if this faith is expensive, isn't it? I understand that it does not happen to everyone, but whoever does… is so uncomfortable and irritating that failure….
We have already seen that the same problem happens to some and some does not happen to them, the luckiest are from week 32 and up, the sensor error may also be hardware, the coverage problem may be covered by software in end to see if on September 30 there is good news for everyone, a greeting
Pep – it seems that the coverage is better (at least the bars have increased), but the coverage continues to dance a lot for me, to the point of going from 4 lines to zero. And honestly, they can give me 20. huge, but if I don't have coverage, I don't think so much. I hope that on the 30th they will report that the defective iPhones will be exchanged, otherwise it seems to me that the insurance that I have put "fully comprehensive" can be used, because it seems like a joke.
I have not yet come out of the scare suffered in August with the sensor, and a few minutes ago I had another one. For the first time I got the warning of high temperature alert. The funny thing is that it is 10 o'clock at night, I have air conditioning and the temperature of the Mobile is about 26 degrees.
I have searched for this alert message on Google and I have been scared because I see that it is not the first case that the little message of yore comes out without the terminal getting hot.
Jobs! , you are giving us to salt ...
The truth has not gone bad for me, I can use the phone without being dirty about it! That I spent a whole month claiming and making trouble with the technical service. (Total so that they would NOT change the device after sending it 2 times to fix it ...)
Still does not go like my old 3G but I really can not complain ...
Go fabric haha apparently nobody of you is doing well for me, the new update is going like a shot, it turns on fast sensor, good i coverage, the coverage is not going to luck, i had a lot of alive haha iphone 4
@Stunned. If you do the coverage test at 600m altitude you will have a better signal xq the higher the height, the greater the gain. The worst situation is in an urban center inside buildings, garages ...
On the apple page they already put that the percentage of bumpers that they asked was so low that they gave to think that there was almost no coverage problem that there were very few cases and that after September 30 they will continue giving bumpers to whoever asks for it Greetings
Today I have been in the Movistar store with my iPhone 4, which I already sent to the guarantee and they returned it the same ... and when the clerk saw the sensor on the iPhone she was blown away ... it worked as God intended ...
But Apple's technical service returns it to me anyway… what a shame please… and I keep repeating it, IOS 4.1 doesn't fix all the sensors… don't lie to me.
I do not understand with the quality controls that currently exist how these things happen.
Greetings to all ...
I continue with my crazy iphone 4!
Manuel
Manuel if you can return it or keep trying to get a new one because there will be no revision, they will not pick up the defective iphones and they will give them a new one unless you tell them and tell them, the sensor, eh, some are incorrectly installed so some never I failed them and some were fixed with ios 4.1 but some I always fail and it will always fail you need to do something and have it changed, on September 30 and then they will continue giving bumbers if you do not believe me, go to the apple page there greetings manuel is coming
Hello, the battery also happens to me, it barely lasts about 12 hours. With version 4.0 it lasted a little more than a day with the same configuration. How will you fix this now?
As far as I can see, no one comments on something that happens to my iphone 4 and I hallucinate ……… .. last night I had problems with the happy sensor again …… ..so far so good, but what was my surprise when I looked at the terminal and see that right on the sensor, THERE WAS A RED LED ON BUT WITH LIGHT A LITTLE TENUE …………. I called apple again and after having an open issue waiting to update to 4.1 and check the sensor, I They have said that the sensor really has a problem and that they send me the terminal for repair, which after waiting for the operator who attended me, tells me again that it will be replaced by a new one ……………… will it be true ??? ???
It suited me perfectly with version 4.0.1 and 4.0.2. But it has been updating to version 4.1, and suffering many problems with the proximity sensor.
The screen turns on and off intermittently during calls, no matter how close the iPhone is to my ear, and inadvertently I always end up pressing a button with my face that I shouldn't. I have tried restoring, but everything remains the same.
Is the same thing happening to you?
