Adrian@TORQEN Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 So through a pc yeah? Yep, on PC use Shift Key + Update button in iTunes Quote
350 Russ Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 On iPhone6? I doubt it yup iPhone 6 which is now running 8.0.1 or whatever its called. On vodafone with no probs making or receiving calls and touch id is fine. maybe i got lucky Quote
Cragus Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 Cheers Octet - I'll hold off on this one. Have to say - loving the 6 though. Glad i didn't get the plus after hearing the bending rumours circulating this morning. :-o Quote
Adrian@TORQEN Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 “If Apple CEO Tim Cook is going to blame anyone for the fiasco, it’s probably senior engineer Kim Vorrath,†Carlson reports. “Vorrath is the chief bug-catcher at Apple. It’s her job to make sure all Apple products are bug-free before launch.†“Vorrath has a notorious temper,†Carlson reports. “According to Lessin, Vorrath was once so furious at her colleagues that she slammed the door to her office so hard its handle broke. Fellow Apple executive Scott Forstall had to use a bat to break her out of her office.†“The last time Vorrath was in hot water with her bosses was when Apple launched a very buggy Maps application back in 2012,†Carlson reports. “After that fiasco, Vorrath’s own boss, Forstall, left the company.†Quote
Adrian@TORQEN Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 Anyone want to predict what the next Samsung commercial is going to be about? Quote
GMballistic Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 More bad news sorry Adrian. Apparently the new iPhone6 can't resist being shot with a compound bow. Better sell those phones now mate before they're worthless. 2 Quote

BulletMagnet Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 No good against a .50 cal either... Quote
spursmaddave Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 Wow those videos are soooo cool Quote
Adrian@TORQEN Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 WTF is wrong with some people... Quote
4RE Leather Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 Hand up who's Left Handed . . I guess Apple failed to think that one through, the "digital crown" will be on the wrong side I'm right handed, but wear my watch on the same arm. Never bothered me I have 3 U-Boat Classico's all of which have the controls on the left side, and I am right handed. I suppose people will just take it off to work the functions. Otherwise its going to be a pain in the jack until your used to it. Quote
spursmaddave Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 WTF is wrong with some people... I know I just don't get it 16 million people have watched the 'bendy iphone' vid on uTube so I guess there is your answer.... Quote
Adrian@TORQEN Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 (edited) Some more... :| I'm going to start smashing my car in to the wall to see if it bends... Edited September 25, 2014 by octet Quote
StevoD Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 but didnt the IP6+ bend in peoples pockets under normal use, bit different to putting your car into a wall Quote
rabbitstew Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 (edited) Shock news, thin aluminium device is able to be bent by someone being heavy handed with it. Having watched a mate try to bend/snap my GS4 and fail miserably (dont ask) and having a billet aluminium HTC One M8 in my pocket that you can drive over without bending it, I dont really accept that TBH. These guys tested a whole bunch of smart phones including htc & samsung and found that the iphone 6 was the only one to bend out of the ones they tried. http://gadgets.ndtv....-results-597662 Also it doesnt appear its because of people putting phones in their back pockets and sitting on them, its apparently happening when phone is kept in front pocket (like i keep mine) for long periods of time.

These guys tested a whole bunch of smart phones including htc & samsung and found that the iphone 6 was the only one to bend out of the ones they tried. Quite, otherwise Im sure we would have heard about M8's etc. bending as well - theyve sold a couple after all. Likewise, the GS5 sold 11m units in its first month, if there was a bending problem (which I dont understand how a plastic phone can bend anyway) I think we might heard about it. Its what I said on the last page, Apple release something thats technologically 2 years behind the game, overpriced and doesnt work properly (IOS8 has been released twice now, IOS6 Maps didnt work, bendy phones, iCloud security, Livestream, iPhone 6 preorders) and the iLovers get all aggressive about it ........... without considering every other release by every other company works fine and moves the game on. Ive got nothing against the products, if you like them then more power to you but dont try to make out that all the rest are the same because they arent - cutting edge hardware, properly tested software and reasonable pricing is actually a good thing believe it or not Quote
pjf1985 Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 The current trend of wearing skinny jeans probably contributes to the bending of iPhone's....and other things Quote
Neilp Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 I'll still love my iPhone even after its a bit bent Quote
