iPhone 7 and iOS 10: Let's Chat About It

iPhone Launch.PNG

 

 Hello Community!

 

As you all have heard by now, the iPhone 7 is coming Smiley Happy.  As a lifelong iPhone user, I always look forward to these launches.  As part of the Community team though, this is my first time being able to have a great discussion with all the other fans out there.  I wanted to start this thread to be able to get the community together and make this the best iPhone launch ever!

 

For those that are curious, my name is Tim and I have been with AT&T for 17 years now.  You might know me from such handles as @ATTMobilityCare and @ATTTimCS.  I actually started when I was 19, and still see myself as 19, not 36 Smiley Happy.  I am an avid gamer, and love technology.  My other big passions are movies and my daughters.  I have turned them both into gamers at this point lol.  We have iPhones and iPads throughout the house so these OS updates and device launches are pretty exciting around our house.

 

What are you most excited for?  Have you already preordered?  I will try and be a pretty active participant in the discussion and answer questions and concerns when I can.  With that said, I also want this to be a great place where other fans can talk and share their thoughts!

 

See below for some of the most helpful links and let’s get started.

 

Thanks so much,

@gphipps,

 

Not sure if you figured it out, but if not.  go to settings>general>accessibility>home button>turn on "rest finger to open".  

 

That should take car of your frustration.

Buckfever,

 

No, I had not firgured that out. Thanks!!

 

I figured it was probably a setting buried somewhere. Didn't think to look in accessibility.

I ordered the iPhone 7 128gb Matte Black on sept 19 online with an estimated ship date between sept 26-oct 3. On Tuesday if I did a new order the ship dates were sept 21-23! And since Tuesday it changes by one day meaning today is ship dates of sept 23 into next week. Should I cancel my order since if I ordered today and if the ship dates are accurate I'd be getting my quicker with a new order?

I was misled by AT&T local store in Portsmouth, Ohio. They said that a program existed, and it did, where I can trade my old phone back for $650 when I buy a new iPhone. They said the deadline was Sept. 30 and they told me this on Thursday Sept. 22. I went back yesterday, 27th and they informed me that they were wrong. They said that the sell ended the 25th. They admitted that they were wrong. I would have bought the phone before the 25th but I was told the 30th. I was not the only one. I am punished by their mistake. They now said that I can get $150 for the old phone. Unfortunately, I now have to pay $500 more because of their mistake. I will go and talk to Verizon unless AT&T stands with what they have told me. I was misled. Why can't I get the deal that I was promised?

Mistakes are made by the personnel in the store and you or anyone else should not be punished. The only type of AT&T store I use is a company store, stear clear of the retail stores due to lack of experience. I don't know which you used but if it was a retailer, don't go back, find a company store instead. It's hard because they look the same, ask before committing. I've been with AT&T for over 13 years and also some times prior, I'm a retired Soldier and moved a lot. AT&T provides the best deals and great customer service, you'll want to stay. I'm not an employee, but I will use AT&T until the end.

Hi Tim,

 

I recieved my iphone 7 2 weeks ago and have had terrible cellular service. I had an iphone 5 with AT&T and had no issues. Now I have little to no cellular service whenever I'm in a building - at home, at work, in stores. Should I bring the phone into the Apple store where I purchased it or is this a known issue? My husband also upgraded and is having similar issues. Please advise!

 

Thank you,

 

Julie

Hi @Sunspot32,

 

Take a look at our Wi-Fi calling thread.  In addition to seeing all the devices that currently support it, you can also find links on how Wi-Fi calling works, and and FAQ!

 

Thanks
