iPhone 1.1.3 Hidden Features, Bluetooth Issues

Friday January 18, 2008 12:48 am PST by longofest
Readers in our MacRumors forums, along with some other websites, are beginning to identify hidden features of the latest iPhone software, released this week. Among them:

- SMS storage capacity bumped to 75,000 (from 1,000)
- Multi-touch keyboard
- Gmail defaults to IMAP
- Manually managing songs

There are also reported bluetooth connectivity bugs, to which a clunky workaround has been found.

I guess I'll get this started. What has been updated that hasn't been mention in the keynote or in the January '08 update video located here.

So far I noticed that now when you get an SMS message and hit "close" it will actually ignore the message and you won't see a little "1" next to it.

have you tried resyncing all music to it? disable the music sync section, sync, then enable it and sync. Maybe the lyrics get dropped normally, or they get indexed in some special way with the new version. Also may have to get the new version of itunes first.

yeah I tried looking for lyrics and can't figure out where they're at (I use the lyrics section for track notes and stuff on mixsets I have).

I noticed after updating to itunes 7.6 there's 189mb of "other" in there that wasn't before.

Lyrics work by tapping the album cover when a track is playing.
My location worked for me, although once when I tried it it told me I was in Tenerife, unfortunately when I looked out the window was still in cold, damp, dull Scotland....
