September 21, 201313 yr I just bought the iPhone 5c for $79.99 at Walmart. Sold my 4S for $250 on eBay. Well played.
September 21, 201313 yr i bought my 5 the day they came out and I'm not eligible for a year. Who do you have service through? I have 4s.
September 22, 201313 yr I hear this helps the battery life. If you're using ios7 and your battery is draining... go to Settings - General - Background App Refresh - switch it to OFF
September 22, 201313 yr Also this is exactly the same layout Palm Used to have on their Palm Pre. Swiping the apps away and everything. That was like 4-5 years ago.

September 23, 201313 yr Gave it a whirl. Thanks for the tip. Same here. Battery life seems to be a little better. I'll have to charge it overnight and see how long it lasts tomorrow.

September 23, 201313 yr I have an iphone 5 and upgraded, love it so far and am used to it enough that the little things that originally bothered me (like the white scheme) I am used to now and I have no negatives about it. My wife has a iphone 4s and she upgraded and after she did she started getting an overheating warning. She said the phone used to get really hot in the past but it never gave a warning. She called the Apple Support folks and they said it may be a new thing with the ios7 that it now gives a warning for that sooner than it did with the older verion of os. Anyway, reading on line about the issue it seemed it was a pretty big issue with iphone 4's and especially with white iphone 4's. Some of the things I read online was that Apple would replace the iphone no questions asked. We wondered about this and that is why she called apple support. She got her phone from her work so she didn't know if it was still under warranty. she got it last September. Anyway, the Apple support guy made a appointment for her at the Apple store in Kenwood Mall and told her to take it in and they would see if they could find out what was wrong. He also told her that her Hardware Warranty was going to expire in 5 days.....long story short, Apple store replaced her phone and gave her a new phone with no questions asked. so kudos for Apple!!!!! We were lucky that it still had 5 days left on the warranty. If she wouldn't of upgraded to os7 when she did she may be stuck with a defective phone.
September 23, 201313 yr Off the charger at 7:30 sitting at 74%, I haven't used it a ton but it appears it has helped a little.
September 23, 201313 yr They must have hired some of their cast offs. At least they stay innovative. :lol:i hope not! Years ago, about 7, I was a Palm Trio fan, well kind of. I kept waiting for them to fix certain functions and improve, they never did! And it's the reason I won't wait for anyone to fix minor issues anymore, you wait, wait, and wait, with no progress.
September 23, 201313 yr I hear this helps the battery life. If you're using ios7 and your battery is draining... go to Settings - General - Background App Refresh - switch it to OFFhave had that off the first day and still doesn't help. I have been out eating since noon and just using this off and on and here an hour later I'm sitting on. 84%. Pre ios7 I would be sitting on 96% or higher.

September 23, 201313 yr Just now saw this and switched mine. Does it seem to help? I think I'm seeing a slight improvement. Nothing major. I also Googled a few different ways to save battery life. Not sure if those have helped.
