My iPhone (2G) is going to sleep mode in minute after the use. If I get any call am not able to hear the ring. I miss important calls. Am using iPhone since one and half years and this problem am facing since couple of months. I need to check frequently if I received any call. Please help me to solve this problem.

3 -4 times a week my screen will fade to white and I have to shut it down for a few minutes before the screen returns to normal. It’s a 3G… Is there anything that I can do? Please help.

Today I also got the Iphone but had a lot of issues for activation of the same . My BUSINESS ACCOUNT Can’t be activated with the Iphone . the other option is to open a new account . Now my question is when I have brought the 500 bucks phone from apple why can’t I simply put the same and get my phone activated ?

The i phone issues are NOT resolved as the press release suggested on july 2nd. As of July 7th, the problems are alive and well. There are major problems still with activating and then getting your phone added to your family plan. If you are a business person with your phone through your company—-YOU CANNOT USE YOUR NEW IPHONE THROUGH YOUR BUSINESS ACCOUNT. You will loose all the benefits you may have on your voice plan through your company. You will be forced to open a new account billed to you personally with all the high costs associated with not sharing your minutes or benefits of your corporate plan, or if you have an existing family plan already separately from your business, you still may not be able to add it to your account or be forced to go to a new family plan and loose rollover minutes you have acrued. Either way—you will loose your benefits your company plan has afforded you in that you will have to get a separate and new account for the iphone. I do not sense that there will be any reasonable solutions offered, at lease any time soon, so I would BEWARE if you are thinking about buying a 600 dollar phone that after the purchase, after the fact, you find out all the horrible news about your service and activation. This comment is in no way intended to serve as a slam to at&t. It is to genuinely make the customer, even the longstanding loyal at&t customer, that they may be forced to make choices they do not like in order to even be able to use the I-phone, or they wont even be able to use it on their account at all especially in the event of those with company accounts. I hope this is helpful to anyome contemplating the iphone.
