iPhone 3GS Solutions – No Burn July 3rd, 2009
If your iPhone 3GS sometimes attempts to turn your hands into blistered grips, or you turn your pocket into a mild inferno, you have someone to blame: yourself. Of course, Apple is not blame here. They have released a mild set of notes on the topic, but admits no wrong doing. Now we have some directions for how to prevent, and improve your iPhone’s performance.
If you missed what is happening overall (Pre user?), take a look at this. iPhone’s have been randomly overheating, burning users, and refusing to be used until a more agreeable temperature is reached. Great for a new product launch.
PCWorld, the gentlemen that they are, have complied a list of tips and tricks, but from the community and from other sources to keep your iPhone at a fair temperature. You can read them here. I have not had this issue in the year that I have had my iPhone 3G, and given how it seems to be an accelerating problem, i want to hazard that recent design changes are causing problems. This must be very depressing to the old 3G owner who shelled out the $500 to get the 3GS only to have it turn their fingers into charcoal.
Apple, take this public, fix the firmware, or launch a recall. Being “coy” in this situation is akin to being an asshole.
