The iPhone OS 3.0 Update
The download went surprisingly quickly, considering my lowly 1.5-2.0/Mb/sec connection.
The first time iTunes tried to install the software, it failed.
I disconnected and re-connected my iPhone, and the update went smoothly.
When it came to the point that iTunes contacted the activation server, the process crashed again. The message appeared that the SIM was not inserted properly. What?
I was considering removing and re-inserting the SIM, when the message appeared on the iPhone that the SIM was locked. I entered the unlock code, and the activation was successful.
iTunes then said the iPhone was ready to use.
I disconnected the iPhone, and the icons were scattered randomly across six screens--few of them in their previous positions. Some screens had only two or three icons. Some screens were full. Some of my favorites that I had on the first screen prior to the update were now several screens away.
I rearranged the icons. The applications I have tried all seem to work fine under the new OS. The first that I tried, of course, was Zombieville USA. It worked fine. That was my main concern, understandably.
All seems well now, but I sincerely hope that the issues that plagued me do not happen to uninitiated people who turn in fright from the process!
Laura's iPhone, on the other hand, completed the update process without issue.
