It doesn't need to log on to any wifi. It just needs to SEE the wifi routers. That's enough for it to figure out location-related information from the routers.

Turn wi-fi completely off and then try again. I'd be surprised if you were still "placed perfectly".]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20933623 Mon, 11 Aug 2008 13:25:11 EDT Re: [iPhone] 2.0.1 is Out! http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20933604 bobrk :

Wifi on my Touch worked very well, showed my exact location when at the house.

Nah...I was sitting at home on my network.

It finally did work and show the correct location...only after two reboots. Nearly perfect. :p

I just recently swapped my 1G phone under warranty. I plead my case about all of the goofy stuff that was happening--10 hour backup, etc. They had pity on me and I got a new phone.

Things were looking good at first...1 hour backup after setting it up as a new phone and reloading everything. But tonight as I sit watching the replay of the Cubs/Cards game, I tried looking up my location in Maps. On wifi it was kind enough to tell me that was actually sitting 10 miles away from my real current location. I've done this very thing before at home and this was a first for me on 2.0.1. Anyone else seen this?

Oh and add to that the typing delay issue is back as I type this at 1 WPM. Fuck.

After MUCH arm chair research on Touch WiFi problems after 2.0.1, one forum (I can't remember the name, so take it with a ton of salt) said the FUBAR rate was about 1 in 10 for 2.0

I'm guessing that 2.0.1 is less, with a focus on WiFi for Touch users.

The only things I notice are that everything seems to work faster....I use Notes a lot and typing response was painfully slow, as was tapping on the screen to use the keyboard. Safari crashes now too--didn't before the upgrade.

I was on vacation in Southern California last week, so I didn't update my phone till I got home last night.

1. Download seemed to be fine, and apparently my iPhone got backed up before the update started.

2. Couldn't update the phone. Started restore procedure.

3. Cant restore the phone. Error 6. Repeatable every time.

4. Looked around here. No one else was having this problem. Looked on the web. Saw a bunch of different suggestions, some apparently winders specific. Don't use the dock. Reinstall iTunes. Restore the phone from a different computer and then restore the back up from the original computer.

5. Tried not using the dock. Same issue.

6. Tried reinstalling iTunes. Nothing.

7. Tried restoring the phone on my MBP. this worked, and I had a blank phone with 2.0.1 on it.

8. Restored the backup from my main computer. It put everything I wanted on there, except the apps I downloaded on my trip and my photos and music. Why doesn't it do those?

Anyway, I don't get why this happens. It should be bulletproof.

I was right.

So I waited a week or so to hear of any problems with this firmware before upgrading.

The factory stock 1.1.4 Touch ran pretty good on an open AP here but not so well on one with WEP. Both are Belkin .11b access points. So I ran it on the open AP and it allowed me to check news headlines, mail, etc, without problem.

I upgraded, uneventfully, through iTunes last night to 2.0.1.

WiFI now drops constantly on the open access point. I've rebooted the touch, I've reset network and I'm ready to say with confidence (after struggling with a macbook and WiFi) that Apple's WiFi is not ready for prime time. I say this because my powerbook and my powermac (both with original airport cards), a friends iBook and two windows wireless notebooks have zero problems on the same access points.

Other than the WiFi, I also notice that it takes a lot longer to completely close an app by holding down the round button. What few apps I tried seemed to work OK until the wireless began dropping, which was - without fail - after about five minutes of turning wireless off and back on to smack it in the head after it dropped out. I never show more than two bars 10 feet from the AP. I used to get three, but would drop to two if I left the room with the AP. But I stayed connected! Googling this problem turns up a small, but growing, number of people with the same irritation.

Apple wants me to buy an airport express to solve this problem.

Yeah. I don't think so.

Problems with Apple products have grown extremely tiresome lately. This is NOT why I switched exclusively and spent a good chunk of change helping keep aapl afloat.

My edge seems to be turning on and off now (the "E" would just disappear when this happens), and the only way to turn it on again is to open safari. So I get a chance to load vidoes for about 10 seconds then I lose connection to edge.

Is this some new thing apple implemented to save battery life? Cause if it is, it's complete crap.

EDIT - Ok, now edge is just turning off randomly even in safari after about 10 seconds of not loading anything, then if I click a link or try to load a new page, it tells me I don't have service, then about 5 seconds later edge shows up again. The only way to keep edge going is if I constantly load things in safari. WTF

Also the battery life seems improved, usually at this time around 11pm I'd usually be in the red, but the battery bar is showing just a little less than half battery left. Maybe the old battery bar was inaccurate, and this fixes it.

Backup is a lot quicker, about 2 minutes. I'd really be pissed if it was taking hours like some unfortunate folks here... Stupid question, but I assume you are using USB 2.0 capable Macs, right? I wonder if PPC/Intel matters.

For the record I'm syncing my iPhone on my XP machine, simply because I wanted a separate library for just the iPhone. iPhone is hooked up to the USB port of my Dell 30" monitor.

I'd like to know that as well. After I woke up this morning I was greeted by an error message saying the phone couldn't be activated because of an error. Turns out that the SIM lock interfered with activation--once I entered the code all was well and the update was complete.

So I don't know the total time for the upgrade, but I went to bed about 12:30 AM and the backup was not even an 1/8 of the way through. When my head hit the pillow it had been about 9 hours (started at about 4:30 PM).

I can't see what's different on my phone than others that I've read about here. About 15 apps installed...about a gig free.

I've noticed about 2.0.1 that they've "fixed" the cache issue in Safari. Now all it does is it takes a snapshot of the page you were last on when you go to another page. So now all eight pages will show up (just like in the commercials!!), but the catch is that when you go back to a page it refreshes--the page just doesn't pop back up (just like in the commercials).

One nice thing is that I did not have to re-sync since I am not at my computer that has my iTunes library.

Another thing it seemed to fix was a "phantom" app I had downloaded. I went to download the Cube Runner update, and by mistake tried updating twice. So it was trying to install the app twice. Once it was updated, it only showed one button. I have two full pages of icons on my Touch, but I could flip to the third page which showed nothing. When I came out of an app. the Cube Runner icon would show on the third page briefly then dissappear. Now thankfully that is fixed.

I'm very pleased to hear, universally, I might add, about the speed improvements. Everywhere I look I see the word "snappy" being used. Very nice! It's going to be interesting to see what else people dig up in this update.. given the terse description by Apple, consisting only of "bug fixes", there may not be much more to expect than bug fixes, but then that's all I was hoping for anyway :)
