I love my iPhone but…
I love my iPhone. I love my macbook. I love my (brand spanking new) 24 inch iMac. And I love my shuffle. As you can tell I’m a bit of a mac geek. But in all seriousness I do love my iPhone, it has everything you need – phone, internet, email, facebook, twitter, calendar, photos, music, videos and lots more. And it’s great when your with your mates trying to figure out who that tv star is… You know, that guy… He was in that show back in the days when Felicity and Jack and Jill was on… He had a little sister and his parents were divorced… You know the guy.
Okay starting to lose the plot.
As much as I love my iphone, it’s seriously starting to give me the s%#ts! The first time it stopped working I took it to the “Genius” at the apple store Genius Bar – I’m not just calling him a genius because he fixed my iphone, that’s his actual job title. It was pretty cool at the apple store, the Genius said if he couldn’t fix it he’d give me a brand new one – right there and then. He even had the box ready to hand over. But he did fixed it so I just kept my 2-week old iphone.
For the past couple of days it keeps saying “No service”. It did it for a few hours the other night while I was waiting for someone to call, I was at a friends place and I know her place has perfectly fine reception. Unbeknown to me no one could call because I had “No service”. My phone was just sitting on the couch all night without reception, then hours later it decided to work. Now it’s fair enough when you’re go through a tunnel or you’re in the elevator, but we were on the top floor of a 3-story apartment. Very annoying.
As much as I’d like to, I don’t think I can blame apple or vodafone for this problem. A few days prior I was playing around with the setting on my phone and accidentally switched the carrier from “vodafone” to “automatic” – big mistake! I think what I did was tell the phone to look for any available network and connect to that instead of only looking for vodafone. There were a few times I looked at my phone and it said Telstra. Eek.
Looks like I have a date with my iphone manual tonight. Otherwise hopefully a “restore to factory settings” will fix it.
