App store app "more" disappeared???

gotzaiPhone · 06-18-2009, 10:25 PM

Has this happened to anyone else? I am on the GM version of 3.0 and my app store used to have a "more" button that I could edit the button order and also had "redeem" there too. Now its gone, but my buttons (minus the "more" button) are still in the order that I put them in??? I've reset the phone and short of a restore I don't know what to do??

Mine did the exact same thing. The "More" button was there yesterday. Gone today. Not sure why. The more button allowed you to redeem coupons through the phone I believe. Not sure why it was taken away.

The more button is rather important as that's how you get to update now. I haven't had mine disappear yet on the GM.

Exactly, it was nice. But at least I'm not alone, otherwise I was going to do a restore. I thought it had something to do with my activating tethering....

luckily I had swapped the "categories" with "updates" before it happened.

Whoa... weird! I just looked again and my more is gone as well, replaced with "updates"

What's going on here?

Yeah I noticed that too. Something was wrong with that anyway. Every time I tried to reorder the functions, it would never save. I think the only thing we're missing out on right now is the ability to redeem for apps.

I was just coming on here to post about this problem when I noticed this thread on the homepage.

It was there this morning, I updated Shazam and it was fine. I checked just before and it was still on the update screen, but another App had an update. When that App was done updating, the More button in the App store disappeared and now is back to the Update button like it was in the last O/S version.

There are a lot of people experiencing this now; a few others (myself included) noticed something strange. Before the MORE button disappeared (and was replaced by the Update buttom), the wheel that appeard next to the E (or 3G) icon in the left hand side of the top of the screen that showed that data was loading or transmitting was acting really choppy - and then the More button disappeared. I also noticed that the bar with the buttons took a long time to pop up and the App store took a long time to load - and when the App Store loaded and the bar with the buttons popped up, the More was replaced with Update. Could Apple have done an over the air update to the App Store software on the phone that happened when you connected to the store?

This is very, very strange....

You guys are scaring me. I didn't face anything like that. But is there no solution for it? Beside people are having lots of bad rumor about iPhone. I will share when get to know more.

I'm having the same issues. The MORE button is gone and the stuttering activity wheel.
Glad it's not just me....
