Even More iPhone Problems Appear

You don't have to be a brainiac to see that something is just not right here

Apple's iPhone

The iPhone has been released only for a few days and a considerably large number of people have already started complaining about this handset. We're not being fault-finding here, just that when so many people say that something is wrong with the iPhone, they can't be complaining for nothing.

There's no smoke without
fire. Well, maybe just a bit, as some forums have filled with reports on problems experienced by newly iPhone owners with their handsets. There's a small chance that someone who has been waiting for months just to get their hands on one of Apple's phones will suddenly turn picky and see in the iPhone problems without being founded.

The first report has been that the mobile phone does not activate. AT&T has declared that this comes as a result of the large number of new subscribers that have been activating their new accounts these days. Moreover, the problem seems to have been already solved.

Another problem is that some users seem to be unable to use their Wi-Fi and EDGE handset performances, although at a certain time in the last days the service worked. There's a high chance that AT&T is the one to blame this time too. The number of people using these services has suddenly increased in the last days, which makes it only natural for some problems to appear.

Another situation has been revealed once someone has said to have managed to crack the root password for the iPhone. Moreover, it looks like the security system is an extremely old and inefficient one. Until further checks and confirmation, this problem is unclear. Still, the forum which earlier revealed this problem no longer has this thread available.

One last issue is that the FM transmitter does not work with some devices. When connected to such a car device, it displayed an error message which might just be a compatibility problem. Did I say that this is the last iPhone issue? We'll just have to wait and see.
