When I'm using bluetooth to make phone calls in my car, the connection to my iPhone 6 drops intermittently and is infuriating. I don't have this problem with bluetooth audio streaming, or with my Moto X. Is this a known bug that affects everyone, or should I go down the restore from iTunes route?

Super Dude posted:Is there any way to completely disable visual voicemail on the iphone? Every time I swap from my iphone to my android phone, voicemail notifications break. According to Verizon, visual voicemail on the iphone is some special snowflake that doesn't follow visual voicemail on any of the other platforms, and the only thing they can do about it is reset my voicemail settings. Each time my sim card is in the iphone, Apple's visual voicemail is re-enabled and I can't stop it. If you get a non-iPhone sim from Verizon then visual voicemail will be disabled.

Super Dude posted:What makes something a non-iPhone sim? The one I'm using came from my Moto X. That should be all you need. Maybe take your Moto X into a Verizon store and get a new sim card and don't touch the voicemail configuration. I had the exact same setup (Moto X & iPhone 6) and the sims that came in each phone behaved differently when swapped. Eventually, though, I learned it was easier to just: Jose Oquendo posted:Stop swapping phones like a sperglord.

dexter6 posted:Does my current status with AT&T (not eligible for upgrade until Mar 2016) have any effect on whether or not Apple will put me on their lease program? It's unclear* No effect. The Apple plan is completely independent of carrier financing/contract status. Imagine it's like you're buying a new iPhone for full retail price on a credit card with 0% interest for 2 years.

For Apple Upgrade Program/In-store reservations, I went through the checkout process and picked "Replace my iPhone" and "Pay Full Price" before the check in-store availability link showed up. Clicking it took me to safari where I could buy 1 or 2 of the iPhones I selected. My store had a ton of reservation windows left, for what it's worth.

The extra RAM in the 6S+ completely delivers. My biggest annoyance with the 6 was that Pocketcasts would always get bumped from the now playing screen whenever I paused a podcast and did anything else on my phone. If getting in the car no longer means that the first song in my iTunes library autoplays this purchase is completely justified.

Also, Touch ID being superfast means that Apple Pay is much more usable.

For anyone curious, I bought one 6S+ at Verizon and one at the Apple Store, and they're the exact same part & model number: MKV82LL/A & A1687. Edit: the one from the Apple Store was on the apple upgrade program

King of all Machines Operate posted:Can you elaborate on this? I currently have a 5S and the first song in my library plays every single time I get in the car, and sometimes if I answer a phone call as well (it plays over the person talking and I can't hear anything). Is this something improved in the 6S? I almost always have a podcast as the last thing I listened to in my car, and when I get out of the car the podcast pauses. With every previous iPhone if I did anything else on my phone, when I went back to the car the podcast was usually forced out of memory and the same lovely song would start playing. It's a small sample size and entirely anecdotal, but I haven't noticed this happening on the 6S+.

After 3 days with the 6s+, I still feel like I'm going to drop it, and it never feels comfortable in my pocket, so am going to exchange it for a 6s. The biggest thing holding me back is the terrible process of setting up a new phone again.

Dr. Tim Whatley posted:What are you having to do besides backup/restore? iTunes choked on my encrypted backup, so no app passwords, activity data, etc. carried over. That, plus the Apple Watch process is the worst. I'll manage to set everything up again, but it's basically just a time suck.

So I restored from an encrypted backup, and some apps just disappeared (maybe the ones from family purchases) and I have a bunch of apps that refuse to download. I've signed out/in iTunes a couple of times and rebooted a few times. Nothing working yet. I really hope apple fixes this before I get another phone.

I like the Anker and Insignia (Best Buy brand) cables. They're both sturdier than Apple cables. Generally MFi Lightning cables are cheap now so just buy a bunch.

I'm going to nominate the Amazon basics iPhone case as the best case. I like the Apple Leather Case, and this is pretty much that, but it starts out grippier. Also it's $10 instead of $50.

Celery Jello posted:Here's a question. I've not gotten a Plus before but am thinking about upgrading to the 8 Plus. If I end up deciding I'm not a fan after some extended use (rather than in-store), would Apple already be accepting those as tradeins for the X, or is there generally a delay before they do? You'll end up losing at least $300 from the 8+ purchase price to trade it in, even in 2 months. You can buy the 8+ and try it... if you don't like it you have 14 days to return/exchange for a regular 8.

The glass back on the 8+ makes this so much more manageable. I could never use the other plus phones because they were all slippery as gently caress.

Question Mark Mound posted:Just treated myself to some AirPods Pro in the hope that the ANC means I can keep it quieter and not be deaf by the time I’m 50. I just got some AirPods Pro and spatial audio is hard to explain but extremely cool. Turning your head changes how loud/quiet each AirPod is—that part is a gimmick. But the surround sound is impressive and provides noticeable depth to the audio. As far as I can tell though it’s limited to Apple TV+ content, and maybe stuff you purchase/rent from iTunes.

What's the over/under for a version of this case that charges your phone and airpods at the same time? $179 feels about right. https://9to5mac.com/2020/10/16/magsafe-battery-case/

GhostOfTomNook posted:Should I install the latest beta update if I’m getting a new phone tomorrow and want to get off of the beta cycle? This is going to get messy, and I can’t be the only one dumb enough to do this to myself. iOS won’t allow a new phone to restore a iOS 14.2 backup to iOS 14.1. Is the best way around this to set up the iPhone 12 as a new phone, install the beta on that, and then restore from backup? If I connect to a PC can I get around the requirement that the backup iOS version be <= target phone iOS version?

Endless Mike posted:You can, but then you lose all of your data from the time when you made the archive to when you downgrade. I think the OP's dilemma is that their current phone is on the 14.2 beta while their new phone will be on the release 14.1, so they can either find a 14.1 archive and lose the intervening date, or update the new phone, then restore it. This is correct. I can restore a months-old backup, but I'd lose a lot of data. Installing the beta on the new phone first won't be terrible, but that you have to take this step first is not at all apparent when the transfer process fails.

Astro7x posted:Never been so frustrated trying to set up a new iPhone before, it's making me do it a third time now. Going from iPhone 8 to a iPhone 12 Pro. Why the hell does it keep asking me for some random Apple ID password for an email address I've never seen before? Should I be concerned? Yeah this process sucks poo poo. First I had a ton of verizon errors, and now it's saying that there's not enough space to restore a 128GB iPhone XR backup to a 256GB iPhone 12 Pro.

The corners of my 13 Pro keep popping out of the Apple silicone case—from being in my pocket, I guess. Is the leather case any better at this, or do Apple cases just do this now?
