Iphones Are Rubbish

  1. You could always make things easy for yourself and buy a drug dealers phone.

    It’s got a great game called snake on it and you won’t have any of the issues you’ve mentioned.

  3. No! I prefer to do nothing. If the iHaveToPhone goes nuts again l will probably give up with it, but otherwise I'll leave it be with the eSIM of my, main number and I will take a Samsung with the physical SIM of my other number in if I go somewhere that doesn't involve carrying luggage. For instance, if I end up flying anywhere, then I will just take the iphone If I just drive, then I'll take both phones. For stuff like going to the theatre or cinema, where I need a phone to show a ticket, then the Samsung will work best.. I keep tickets on my Google drive with which, Android works best

    I think call divert is just a code you dial on the phone. I'll need to familirise myself with that divert code and how to stop diverting, for when I leave the iphone at home.

    Taken yesterday. Most photographs don’t load. The resolution is too great. This is ALL Apple on my iPhone. I don’t know how to adjust the camera resolution. The phone camera is very good but it has an idiot at the controls! Also, when away from hotel WiFi, it takes time for the pic to get to the photo library, where this site needs it to be.

    i need to play a bit more.

    I take back any criticism of Apple. An idiot was driving without a license.:weary_face:

  9. Pictures load quicker when on wifi
    Mobile data takes ages!!
     
  10. I’m on 5g when outside. I thought that it was supposed to be faster. It is not here.

    i don’t know where the problem is. I had a text fail, but I retried it just now, on the hotel WiFi and it went straight out.

    The phone uses Movistar here and I won’t know if it’s something to do with roaming, Movistar, or something else, until back in the Uk. Although there was no problem when here a couple of months ago with a different phone, it too went to Movistar.
     
  11. That was another fail, BIG TIME

    The post is gone. I want into town this morning . This shitty, carappy fone joined in the celebration by going 3g with Orange, who still exists in España, Nothing worked still, I got back to Sardine City and switched it back to Movistar on 5g, but still nothing worked- even after a couple of restarts. That’s another thing, I don’t believe anything really does restart as all of the apps that were loaded before are still loaded and struggling after restarting.

    I can forgive a lot of things if my life is made easier. I struggle to forgive if my life is spoilt.

    This is a test post
     
  13. hahaha are u on a wind up?
     
  14. I've got other photos but nothing loads here as it is all claimed to be too big!

    Santander town is fecking hilly! They have these cable car things to help people. The gradients are insane! I got a taxi to the top and came down. Even then, I struggled. Where the cable car stops at the bottom, it's still insanely steep. There are escalators going up, but not going down, Locals seem to manage and they must be fit. I could never live there.

    Into town and I recognized it. I went to something there before, went in the same coffee shop that is right near a taxi rank. Back to the hotel is not that far in terms of mileage (that's because everything is in kilometers here!) but feck me, it's insane! So hilly, yet all built on.
     
  15. That's the carriage just before stopping to let people on. It's insane! Probably the track is at 45 degrees!

    I am here for another two weeks. I can't just drink coffee and beer for two weeks or maybe I can?
