Apple recently launched firmware 3.1 for the iPhone/ iPod Touch users. It included impressive features like minor bug fixes, save original videos while editing them, save video attachments, MMS and much more. However, there have been several problems reported on the firmware 3.1. Users report that after upgrading their iPhone to firmware version 3.1 they face problems like iPhone suddenly shutting down, lesser battery life, slow and sluggish performance and also iPhone getting bricked.
Header22 first was the first one to report that his iPhone 3G suddenly shuts down after he has upgraded his OS to 3.1 and it occurs quite often which is a big problem.
iPhone users have also reported that the OS 3.1 has further reduced iPhones battery life making life worse for all the iPhone lovers out there. A user has also reported that after upgrading to firmware 3.1, his iPhone went into recovery mode showing error 2006, 1611 and 26.
Our suggestion to all these users would be to downgrade the firmware version to 3.0 OR wait for Apple to lauch new firmware with these bugs removed.
All these users might be an exception case, but if they aren’t Apple will seriously have to look into this matter and launch a new updated OS to fix all these bugs. If you are one of these who have upgraded their OS to 3.1, and facing problems please do report it in our comments section.
