Im getting a little pissed off

[Vultren]

I just checked my phone and well... no music, videos, and playlists. If I knew 1.1.4 was going to be this disappointing I wouldn’t of done it. Now, because of the dumb update that I didn't need (as far as I know) I have to sit on the computer and load every single song and video back to my phone.

I was starting to think that this isn't like Apple to make the update so lame, there’s gotta be something more to it. I just find it hard to believe that this was just a "bug" update. The Starbucks thing would really make me happy, but until then I’m very unimpressed and disappointed.

Is any one else with me?

I'm really sorry to hear that. I did the 1.1.4 upgrade to both my Touch and my iPhone with no hiccups whatsoever. Everything was working as before once the system was done with the update. I didn't lose anything.

Were you/are you a Jailbreaker?

sorry, but im not with you. im not pissed at all. maybe im just not as techie as some, but i bought this phone in july of 2007 and the company that made it keeps providing these free updates. sometimes they add new features, but other times they just make the phone do what it does better. what's there to be pissed about?

i am with you in thinking that there may be more to this update than we can see right now. patience, grasshopper. it's all life until you die.

Nope, wasnt jailbroken.... but on top of all this, apparently I have 5.6 GB of "other". I have no clue what this is... or how its there.

I'm thinking about doing a restore, but If I do that ill lose all my contacts

Couldn't have said it beter myself. This phone is still the iPhone! It is not perfect but I think apple has don a great job of updating it regularly.

You don't lose your contacts when you restore.

You can do a restore and then use a back-up. You won't lose anything.

Yea I’m doing that right now... that’s seriously too bad.

I guess I’m not pissed, maybe I’m more "disappointed"?

if you keep your music in iTunes, and your contacts synced to your computer like you're supposed to, then all you have to do is restore and resync. it'll take 30 minutes max, which is mostly automated by iTunes... it requires very little effort on the user's end.

weird s%#! happens with software once in a while no matter what company makes it. That's why you back up your stuff.

Weren't we all required to agree to the same terms when we bought this thing, that Steve now owns our souls and shall use us to beta test his software and fatten his pockets before he releases the mainstream version of the iPhone, unlocked at $49 with 20 hours of battery life, full bluetooth support, dual core processor, 64 gigs of memory, flash and java, 3G, wifi-N, EVDO/CDMA, GPS maps, cut/paste and a high definition camera with a lens on the front and back, video, MMS, and webcam support? Or were they just pulling my leg?
