Apple Releases New iPhone Firmware to iTunes 2.0.2
Aug 18th, 2008 by MrGroove
Just grabbed the latest firmware for my iPhone. I’m hoping this fixes some of the LAG issues I’ve been having while using Contacts as well as the battery draining issues pretty much everyone I know of is having.
I just started the update and like the last update (2.0.1) it’s a BEAST and it taking FOREVER!
UPDATE: Just finished the update and so far so good. The LAG issues I’ve been having with using the Contacts has been fixed. No more lag!! Very good news. There also appears to be a few new features (push and hold on letters on the side of contacts to quickly scroll up-down). Anyway, as I play around I’ll post more updates.

thnx for the heads up. grabbing it now.
I did the upgrade yesterday and if “feels” like my battery life is actually draining FASTER now…. anyone have this problem?
@Slager98 - hmm… Last night was my first “Full” charge after the upgrade so I’ll let you know how the battery life feels on my iPhone. I’ve always had to watch the battery life on my phone (turning off WIFI and blue tooth when not in use).
If your Battery Life doesn’t improve, you might want to check Safari and make sure to close all open windows. I’ve “heard” open windows can refresh in the background and drain battery/bandwidth. Can’t say I’ve actually looked into that scenario however I guess it’s possible.
