c3ntury Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Better overall performance. Multi-tasking (but i wouldn't care if it wasn't included.. i have a jail-broken iPod with Backgrounder) & general bug-fixing and speed enhancements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Montage Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 * Multitasking. I multitask fine through cydia apps, but would rather do it natively. * FM Radio. Hardware is there, use it. * Decent lockscreen akin to HTS Sense - with ability to enable/disable. * Global spellcheck. We feel very NEARLY there... * Better popup messaging. The dialog shutting the app is not acceptable - related to multitasking I guess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the iPad it has a dictionary, so there is a good chance this will be ported down to iPhone OS 4.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunknMunky Veteran Posted April 7, 2010 Veteran Share Posted April 7, 2010 BlackBerry Messenger <> iPhone instant messaging :whistle: Look on the App Store for Whatsapp. Reading other people's lists I'm thinking I can already do this with my JB iPhone :laugh: I really want them to finally release a native FM radio app though. Like others have said, the antenna is there - it's time to use it. Right now I have to stream radio which works, but would help me save battery life. Also making the springboard more interactive like HTC Sense would be nice. I love the weather widget my mum's HD2 has with the animations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evo_spook Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I have no idea how often I've rebooted, but my last reboot was 45 days ago. It's true though that rebooting is sometimes necessary to clear up some issues. No badly programmed app should cause you to have to reboot the phone. So in that respect, it is an OS issue. However, I think the vast majority of users don't have to reboot their phone every week. I know neither my wife's nor mine have ever needed weekly reboots. 1 Reboot in 2 years.

mad_onion Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 It doesn't feel like real multi-tasking(android) :/ more like what Microsoft plans to do with WP7 (N) No, it's not full multitasking but they seem to have all the apis in place that would be needed so that it will seem like multitasking. I love how I will be able to skype calls anytime now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayepecks Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 I didn't expect any sort of multitasking, but even still I'm kind of letdown with what they revealed. Not really anything substantial, IMO. I figured they'd try to at least one-up Microsoft, not stay on par with what they plan to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stetson Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 I think about 99% of real users' multitasking needs are satisfied by being able to stream Pandora use and Skype. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mad_onion Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Phew, my 3GS is fine then. I have a feeling that the new iphone is going to a whole new UI on it's OS...... I suspect the graphics on the 3GS aren't good enough to run anything on the level of what WP7 has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
