Not only are you not suppose to Hold your Iphone 4 that way...Now.. - GoFuckYourself.com

Semi-Retired-Dave · 08-11-2010, 03:45 PM

I can't even hold it to my ear to talk, so many times when I'm talking to people, they keep saying, "Hello", "Hello", "are you there"...My ear touches the Mute button. The screen is suppose to turn off when it's up to your ear. The 3G was a better phone, I never had a problem with it.

I"m sure Steve Jobs will be like, "Don't hold it to your ear when you talk."

Oh well, but it does take amazing video.

yea the proximity sensor is a known bug that should be fixed in 4.1 which will probably be out in the next month or two.
i never had a problem with it, but i also use bluetooth a lot. but i have friends that have issues

For the price of what an iPhone costs, you should be able to use it underwater in space.

Sly · 08-11-2010, 03:49 PM

If Steve Jobs says it isn't a problem, it isn't a problem. Quit your bitchin'.

iPhone is not a Mac. My Macs work beautifully. My iPhone is in a box growing spiders.

$150 is expensive?

96ukssob · 08-11-2010, 08:08 PM

I love the phone but I hate that. Happens to me often and my biggest pet peeve is the shitty bluetooth quality

Same here. Overall still a great phone.

Cleo · 08-11-2010, 09:06 PM

A lot of the proximity sensor issues are due to migrating from an earlier version of the iPhone software.

I'm still using the iPhone 3G (on the waiting list to buy the iPhone 4) and I was having all kinds of issues after upgrading to iOS4 until I restored my iPhone back to factory setting and then adding everything back in manually. It was a pain in the ass to do but now my iPhone is working properly.

fatfoo · 08-11-2010, 09:24 PM

Your ear should not touch the mute button.

Sharky · 08-12-2010, 01:05 AM

Yeah, this is my only complaint about the iphone4. I'm a convert from blackberry, so all in all I am pretty happy with it

k0nr4d · 08-12-2010, 01:10 AM

I got an android phone. It's great, much better then iphone.

ottopottomouse · 08-12-2010, 03:34 AM

Is it definitely the phones fault your ears touch it?
