I just upgraded from an iPhone 3G to an iPhone 3GS and have noticed some differences.
The Wi-Fi bars seem to jump from full to one, so it gets strong and weak alot.

And the battery doesnt last as long.

Is this the same for other people?

My brother has an Iphone 3GS on Vodafone and he is always losing reception. Has anyone else had this problem because he has rung Vodafone numerous times and the problem hasnt yet been resolved.

My brother is really pissed so he rang some place, i forget what its called, to speak to them about trying to get out of his Plan because of him not being able to get reception.

Edit: I think he rang the ombudsman.

Does anyone else get a problem with 3G on Optus?

Sometimes I get a O icon where the 3G icon would be at the top (next to carrier name) and I have no idea what it means, is it no 3G coverage or something?

Im with Optus and the "O" basically means that the connection is too weak for 3G, either way the internet works, but EXTREMELY slow. I turn off 3g to get the O icon and just surf on the iphone sites.

I have been on optus for about 5 days now and this is the first time i have had the O turn up, is it because of rain or just optus themselves.

The latest update for the iphone 3gs is meant to fix the problems with reception dropping out.
I sometimes get the O when im not in a good coverage area but if it happens and you know that you in a good coverage area then just go to phone setting and turn 3g off then back on and it should be fine.

Im sorry but a phone's battery life does not get better over weeks, a battery has a certain limit it can go for, you probably just use the internet less than you did in the first few weeks thats why your noticing longer life with your battery.

Come to think of it i disabled 3G networking and now use 2G and keep WiFi off when its not being used.

makes a huge difference. And Auto brightness as wlel should be on! Everyone will notice a diffference then!
