I don't use my phone for business I don't have much to back up. One day I'll be like the cool kids and use a cloud server.

Dropbox gives you 2GB free. Any pictures AND movies that you make gets uploaded into the cloud. Dropbox is special because as you load more stuff in, it gives you MORE FREE space! I am not used to people giving me free stuff! :D

So, i use both iCloud and Dropbox.

iOS6 no longer requires PW for updating. It only requires when you buy an app. This makes sense. Remember, Apple is seeking security measures to compete with Blackberry. Apple has no interest in the viral-filled openness of Android.

Here is a suggestion...take your iPhone AND laptop to Apple store. Why are you waiting 3+ years to find the solution when it is only a mall away?? :welcome:

My incompetence not withstanding, itunes is a PITA. I agree that the infrequency I've had to use it is a plus, I've done IOS updates right on the phone for example, and icloud makes it nearly obsolete if you want it to be, but I still don't like itunes.

Icloud isn't the answer for me as I don't have a dataplan (before your head explodes, take a few deep breaths, lol). I've gotten by just fine using wi-fi at home, work, friends places, etc so far. This was a cost saving measure, data isn't cheap here like it is in the US, or even other provinces with other carrier options.

The not requiring PW's to update apps is a good move, I like to hear that.

I've used itunes on 3 computers with my phone, which I have a feeling is related to my issues. My main computer is a desktop, and I won't be hauling it into the apple store any time soon. Any other ideas? I've been to the apple store once for a solution, and the guy showed me how to back the phone up to icloud, but that doesn't fix my itunes related woes.
 
OK Thai, lets hear what you have to say when 183 million xsheep have said “no thanks.”! Show us some more of those amazing tests.

And? You want to talk to me about what? Do you even have JB yet? At least, the above has a CHOICE. Do you have one? No.

Hey, how about this...try to answer my previous post before posting?

Prove everyone here that you're not a liar. Prove to everyone here that you are a man of your word. Prove that you're not a lying little punk. All i see is that you hide like a little boy when confronted with questions about your statements...and then take cheap shots. GROW A PAIR.

Classic Koz in denial! :D Just like JB fixing the over saturation that you claimed? I still see nothing from you Koz to back that up! Liar.

Remind me, how do you know that JB enhances battery life on your phone?? Do you have proof???????

So, JB straight from Google and Samsung will support FLASH? So, after updating your phone in the future to JB, you will be able to play FLASH materials on the OEM ROM? Show me.

How can you say fact when it has not happen yet?! Weird!

Show me where JB fixes screen saturation!

For Koz, jellybean is this great pie in the sky...see how he no longer claims superior CPU/GPU performance even with JB!! :D

Where is the meat, Koz?????????? Show everyone here that you are not full of crap. Simple request.
 
You're right I don't want it. Most of the cool features I either already have or they don't work on my device.

Jailbroken 5.1.1 is far more powerful than iOS6 is so why upgrade? If I had a stock OS I'd probably update in a heart beat though and live with the few quirks. I don't use my phones map app because they all suck, I have a dedicated GPS that I use for navigation and the phone is a back up. Also losing the YouTube app is a welcome feature for me.

I personally think the stock YouTube app is crap and the mobile site much faster and higher quality video. I use SBSettings to hide the YouTube app on my Springboard.

Try Jasmine app. I like it better than Youtube app. It is free. I chose to donate to the developer because i like the simple clean interface.

IanB, sorry, i am no expert with iTunes. I just know how it works to make my system work.

But, to note, iTunes is PITA because you made it so when you set it up initially...on 3 machines!

Looks decent, gets great reviews. Idk if I'll be able to break my habit of using safari and the mobile site. I've been using it iOS3, since at the time the native app didn't offer HD video and the mobile site did.

What happened to all your kool-aid BS? Do you think I have some obligation to answer your silly questions? Who’s the little punk at the keyboard resorting to personal attacks and name calling (what a coward!) Gee, after the personal attacks next comes deleting my posts and threatening to ban me. OMG you don’t have the power to do that anymore. What a nightmare for you! The one thing I did prove is; what a POS you are and that the only way you can try and make your point is through BS and personal attacks.

Despite my posts about the i5, it is still one of the top phones and many people will enjoy it. This is all that really matters. I hope everyone who gets the i5 enjoys it as much as I enjoy the GS3. I just wanted show Thai for what he really is!

Hahaha...you're the one caught with your pants down, Koz!! Actually, my silly questions can be summarized in one statement: SHOW THAT YOU'RE NOT A LIAR AND BACK UP WHAT YOU SAY. Simple. No BS. Let's cut the BS...i agree. Prove me wrong that you're not a dirty little liar.

And before anyone forget, here is your original post:
Sorry Gents, the i5 is beat before it even comes out! The Samsung Galaxy S3 is the best phone on the market (including the i5). It's got a bigger/better display (4” LCD vs 4.8” AMOLED) and a faster processor. The deal breaker for me is you can not simply replace the battery (also the S3 battery has more capacity – 8 hrs vs 11 hrs), the i5 doesn't have a microSD slot and the connecting cable is new and proprietary (you must use an adaptor for any accessories). The S3 can use a micro HDMI cable to attach to any TV. Apple also forgot about the future with no near-field communication (NFC) - the ability share content across phones and pay for purchases.

The i5 is a day late and a dollar SHORT!

This is an iPhone 5 thread. Why are you even commenting in here? Do you have one?

Not the nice person that you claim, is it? Hell, most of what you wrote is wrong and proves your lack of knowledge.

I have backed up everything that i type out. How about you showing the same courtesy to other members about what you write.

Ask Koz about how he feels about JD Powers!! It is hilarious!! :D

Thumbs up if you're still running 5.0.1 jailbroken lol...

I don't want to lose my cool features like up/down scrolling, individual password protected apps/folders, widgets, unlimited amount of apps in folders, built in camera timer, SBSettings, installous, etc etc...

Of course, I'll have to start over when I get my new iphone 5. Just waiting on the life proof case to release!

Sorry Snowflake, I'm done with your BS!

If anyone is interested (probably no one!), then you should know that Koz and I have been arguing/debating for years! He is very enthusiastic about what he owns (to the point of being blinded IMO). I tend to be the devil's advocate in some cases.

Here is a case in point: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/lexus-gx470-460/67467-gx-460-compared-2010-4runner-2.html

See post #21 and on. You can see the similarities with which Koz attacks/argues. This is a repeated behavior.
