A flaky power-control algorithm within the iPhone 3G seems to be a likely cause of the persistent reception problems that have plagued early adopters. ... Source: gizmodo.com --- 2 hours ago
While Apple and AT&T have both been pretty quiet about what could be going wrong with the iPhone 3G, a new source from inside AT&T has finally broken the silence on the " bug fixes " offered in the latest firmware 2.0.2. So was it fixing the iPhone or the iPhone's network ? Well, sorta both. Essentially, the 2.0.2 updated the iPhone to ask for less power from AT&T's towers for UMTS voice and data transmission. Apparently iPhones were simply asking for too much power—more than the handsets actually required—and when many iPhone users were stacked on one base transceiver station tower, the tower simply ran out of power. No/low tower power equals dropped calls and poor 3G connections. It's sort of like splitting a chicken for dinner. If everyone grabs just one piece, it can feed a family. But if Dad goes back for seconds before Mom sits down to the table, someone is going hungry. The problem will not fix itself until the firmware update is distributed to more handsets. So update your phones and bring me another piece of chicken. [ DailyTech via CrunchGear ] ... Source: forums.macrumors.com --- 2 hours ago

Hardware, software, firmware, or networks. No one really knows what’s going on with the iPhone 3G that’s causing all these network problems, but new data points to the problems being rooted in the wireless network itself. At this point, we can rule out the iPhone’s antenna as causing the network issues. And, Apple has announced that [...] ... Source: www.intomobile.com --- 5 hours ago
There’s nothing worse than paying for high-speed 3G wireless data and then getting shafted with artificially-limited data speeds. iPhone 3G owners have been complaining of sluggish 3G data speeds, resulting in speculation that the iPhone 3G’s hardware or firmware were to blame. But, with Wired’s global iPhone 3G data speed survey suggesting that the network [...] ... Source: www.adsensechat.com --- 4 hours ago

Roughly two months ago, Apple unveiled the iPhone 3G to much fanfare . Not long after the release, complaints arose regarding the apparently spotty 3G performance from the phone, a problem that has been blamed on a variety of factors such as software thresholds for signal strength and shoddy 3G chipsets . This led to not only one , but two lawsuits against Apple for false claims of 3G performance. On the flip side, a survey conducted by Wired magazine profiled 3G signal strengths and reliability around the world and postulated the root cause of the iPhone's problems may not be Apple's problem but AT&T's.

![iPhone 3G Antenna Re-Tested With Problem Phone: Still Nothing Wrong With Hardware [IPhone 3G]](http://gizmodo.com/assets/images/gizmodo/2008/08/iphonetestwebb_01.jpg)
Filed under: Culture , Handsets , Orange , Misc , Apple Folks, be honest with us here -- did you really expect Orange and / or Apple to say anything other than this? Amidst reports that iPhone 3G line sitters at Polish Orange stores were actually paid to be there , the carrier has shot back in order to defend its dignity. In an e-mail reply to an Ad Age inquiry on the matter, a spokeswoman proclaimed that as "part of the excitement around the launch of the iPhone, some of [Orange's] team has been joining customers outside [of the] shops." She also noted that "sales were strong" and that Orange "was happy," though actual numbers were not revealed. So there you have it, now make of it what you will.
