iPhone 1.1.3 update leads to problems?

It would seem that the latest iPhone/iPod touch update is doing a bit more harm than good. There have been reports that the 1.1.3 firmware is far less stable than the previous 1.1.2. Some of the problems with 1.1.3 being reported:

  • Error message during/after install of iTunes 7.6 and firmware 1.1.3
  • Loss of sound output from the iPhone's built-in speakers
  • Bluetooth devices that worked with 1.1.2 no longer work
  • Mail problems
While these problems certainly don't sound good, there are some remedies that seem to work. For the loss of sound, you can try turning the phone off and then back on or plugging headphones in and out. iPhone Atlas has listed some of the reported iPhone problems and some of the remedies that you can try. As always, be sure to check TUAW often for the latest iPhone news.

I have an unlocked iPhone 1.1.3 and I see there's 3 updates waiting - TuneWiki version 2.0, NES Vesrsion 2.0 5-1 and BSD Subsystem Version 2.1

Should I update these?

Thanks

I am having major problems. Iphone won't go to voicemail, and every call i get seems to " Call Failed". I called Apple & AT&T to get it resolved. They passed me around to six different departments, and then hung up on me.
I was trying to talk to my girl, and the screen wouldn't work. I have never jailbroke this phone, and have installed all the updates. I almost wish now, I never bought this piece, and I have been with MAC's since the beginning.....

I have been having Mail problems since this update. New Gmail messages come in blank with the 'Download remaining x.x KB' button at the bottom. Hitting this button does nothing. However, I can access my Gmail fine through Safari. Other apps have also been less stable.

Why doesn't Apple address these problems with a fix or at least acknowledge they exist and will be fixed ASAP?

I have not encountered any of the issues previously mentioned, and for a couple of days after the update, I didn't have any problems. Now, however, the ringer intermittently does not work, but the speaker still works. I can play music through the speakers, and I can have phone conversations, but I don't hear it ring. Volume is on max, and the ringer is set to on. Please tell me if anyone else has found a solution to this issue. Thanks.

I have just watched iTunes install the 164.2mb software update Version 1.1.3.

Installation failed right at the end

I then asked iTunes to do a RESTORE and now my iPHONE has been bricked!!!

I bought my iPhone from an apple dealer and will return the phone tomorrow, minus the sim as I need to have a working phone!

07956-544202 is my number...I wonder if it will work tomorrow.

Update 1.1.3 seems to crash more frequently than before. The iPod application seems to have memory leaks and moving through cover flow view soon causes problems with large numbers of album covers, only displaying default note symbol and frequently returns to the home screen. After playing with cover view for a while, all applications immediately return to home screen.

Still no SSH terminal application, still no bulk email delete?
