I'm on 4.1

Didn't fix it at all. Happens to all my calls if I don't use the headphones. I keep launching into facetime, misdialing and hanging up on my friends.

This phone does everything except work properly as a phone.

I upgraded to 4.1 and the proximity sensor isn't as bad as it used to be. I've only had two "phantom" touches in the last week or so. Hopefully they'll tweak it again with the 4.2 update.

^^^

its the design itself, i realized that if i hold it differently, the proximity sensor doesnt screw up. usually the proximity sensors is put beside the speakers, thats usually the best or proper spot imo. since the iphone 4's proximity sensor is above the speakers

I wish apple just allows us to press that top right button so that it locks the phone when you're chatting instead of hanging up on the person.

Damn, I was supposed to get my iPhone today, but I didn't.

Whoever at UPS was doing the deliveries in my area decided to skip my house, fucking asshole. Tracking said failed delivery, and I didn't get a door hanger.

hmm jailbroken on 4.0.1... my battery life is pretty decent it usually lasts a full 14 hour day with medium use or lasts like 48 hours if i dont use it much at at all.

what do you guys keep your brightness settings at? mine lingers around 50~60% bar.

the worst is my house, i get 1 bar anywhere, on any room, so my battery drains as it keeps looking for signal i guess..

but i havent experience any drop calls.... i use my phone with 1 bar or almost none and my calls sounds clear..

i do have auto brightness on, and yes about 50% on the bar

do you guys have location service on? i have it turned off all the time unless i need to use it for gps or poynt.

and fetch data on email is done manually like everyone else.. i actually thought i have shitty battery life coming from bb user, and looking at the reviews around the iphone 4 saying it can last 2 days on average use

i have the batt doctor app and i actually find it drains the battery when i have it running on the background..

just wondering as ive never really done this with other cellphones and i didnt own a mp3 player prior to the iphone4:

If i connected my iphone 4 to my Alpine car deck via the iphone aux/usb cable, would i "overcharge" my battery, and potentially cause the battery from not being able to hold a long charge?

either by overcharging it or constantly charging and uncharging or not charging up to 100% or charging while the battery still has life?

anything i should be aware of??

I think all iPhones have it. How much you are affected by it depends onthe shape of our head

You gotta turn off bluetooth whenever you're not using it if you didn't have it off already.. that thing drains batteries like a monster

Not for a while. The dev-team allocated ALL their team members to working on the jailbreak. So until that's released, no unlock.
