iPhone jailbreak?

[Insanity_rules]

I'm having withdraws!!! I didn't jailbreak my phone thankfully, however the latest "upgrade" version 3.1.3...1..3..5797743 whatever the fuck it was broke my phone!!!
Battery suddenly only lasted half as long, WiFi disappeared, Bluetooth no go (never did anyway, fucking thing!) and then it stopped recieveing MMS. So after a few weeks of getting a bit pissed off with having to charge my phone everynight I took it in to Vodafone and they have sent it awayyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Now I'm using a borrowed Blackberry brick and having withdrawal issues!
Hopefully I get a new phone with only a month left on my warranty or at the very least they fix all its issues, uninstall the stupid upgrade shit and send it back sooner than the 6 weeks they warned it may take.... arrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Help me.... I need chocolate

You know I always liked the idea of the iphone but the reality really sucked. Everytime they came out with an upgrade it did something even more annoying, It was hard to carry in my pocket, the apps never live up to the hype. Oh and the upgrade routine screwed with my phone three times. That device was a huge time waster trying to keep it running. But I loved it right up till the last firmware update killed it and apple blamed me (I'm a very educated computer engineer!) I finally found a fix on the internet that forced the forced restore to work.

I now love my E series Nokia even more. The firmware updates work everytime, the GPS is better, The apps do what they say they will and i can fit it in my pocket.

I still have another year to go on my contract!!! But after that I may just have to look a little harder at something like what you have. As much as I love my iphone, something that does the same things but isn't ruled by apple and their stupid bloody updates would be nice. Cheers.

A couple years back I got the 160Gb Ipod - mainly cos I wanted all of that space to save photos to while I was travelling. The experience has left me never wanting to own another apple product again, ever.

Mainly because I got it at the duty free in Melbourne airport (after security) and when I was having issues with it, and called customer support they told me I had to take it back to the exact shop I bought it from.

DOH. No amount of discussion could sway them on that point. Pretty fuckin hopeless for a "global" company imo.

Took a lot of internet forum searching and some software/firmware niggling before getting it to work. I will no longer let that itunes crap anywhere near my pc either.

Obviously a lot of people love apple products and are very happy with them, not me. I like my N series Nokia enough.

agreed

As much as I love the phone its just something about the draconian apple that I dont like

I mean it does everything i want
I have ordered the HTC Desire with android 2.1 its about the same size as I phone but its out of Apples hands ....

Thank you people, you have cured my want of an iPhone. For this deed I must thank you all very much.

What's that? To make your iPhone worth the money, you need to void the warranty? (Easily reverted - provided you didn't brick the damn thing).

Tut tut tut.

My hand feels normal once more as it has my iPhone attached again!!
Not bad I have to say, just over a week since taking my old phone in to Vodafone I have a replaced iPhone. Everything seems to be working as it should.... I can step away from the chocolate now.

I have a iPhone and have never had any of these problems. The lack of flash is a real bitch, but other than that no problems at all.
