iPhone 1.1.4 fixes Bluetooth, SMS ordering bugs
iPhone software/firmware 1.1.4 apparently fixes some nasty bugs introduced with the 1.1.3 update, as follows:
SMS ordering problems Several readers reported that, after installing the iPhone software/firmware 1.1.3 update, SMS (text) messages are displayed out of order. That is, a conversation intended to appear thusly:
- User1: Hi
- User2: How are you?
- User1: Fine.
- User1: Hi
- User1: Fine.
- User2: How are you?
Apple has acknowledged this issue in a Knowledge Base article. The problem appears to be resolved under iPhone software/firmware 1.1.4.
Bluetooth blues iPhone software/firmware update 1.1.3 introduced some serious issues with third-party Bluetooth devices. These problems included incompatibility with GPS units from Garmin (StreetPilot C550, Nuvi 360, 760, etc.), some integrated car Bluetooth systems and more.
These problems are, based on some reader reports, resolved under software/firmware 1.1.4.
Problems sending mail Several users reported an issue where mail sent from the iPhone simply disappears into the void, never reaching its recipient, nor appearing in the "Sent Items" folder, and also never generating an error message indicating that anything has gone wrong.
This problem may be fixed in iPhone software/firmware 1.1.4. One iPhone Atlas reader writes:
"After installing the update, my phone rebooted, activated, and seemed normal. I started digging through the settings (I?d just gotten to the main settings menu) when I heard the ?mail sent? sound. I looked through the Sent box of each of my accounts but saw no recent entries I didn?t recognize. The last time I sent e-mail from my iPhone was weeks and weeks ago (I usually just read). God knows who just got what."
Dropped call/weak signal issues? We're still waiting to hear from more users regarding whether or not widespread dropped call/weak signal issues have been eliminated. Please let us know.
Feedback? info@iphoneatlas.com.
Has anyone else had this issue? Do you notice the fix?
double clicking while the iphone is sleeping opens iPod controls!!!
And you can control the ipod when music is playing!!!

(7 Comments)I have almost 500 business contacts in
my iPhone contacts. I found the maps feature very handy when traveling
from one customer to another and miss it very much now.
I noticed the problem just after upgradeing to the 1.1.3 version of
the iPhone software and I wonder if that is the problem. I have tried
every fix I could find in several forums and nothinf helps. The only
thing I have not tried is going back to the old iPhone software
because I haven't found a way to do that. I did find one method but it
said the phone would not function afterward so I didn't even consider
that a viable option.
Any further ideas would be greatly appreciated.
