Jan Zdarsa Ekugcineni i-Apple iphendula ezindabeni ezibikwa ngabasebenzisi be-iPhone 4 futhi ikhipha isitatimende sabezindaba esisemthethweni lapho bezama ukuchaza ukuthi kungani ifoni yomuntu iwisa amabha angu-4 noma angu-5 lapho ibambe i-iPhone 4 ngendlela ethile.
Encwadini yayo, i-Apple ibhala ukuthi iyamangala ngezinkinga zabasebenzisi futhi yaqala ngokushesha ukuthola imbangela yezinkinga. Ekuqaleni ugcizelela ukuthi cishe isignali izokwehla kuwo wonke umakhalekhukhwini ngodwi o-1 noma ngaphezulu uma uyibambe ngendlela ethile. Lokhu kuyiqiniso kokubili kwe-iPhone 4, i-iPhone 3GS, kanye, isibonelo, kumafoni we-Android, i-Nokia, i-Blackberry nokunye okunjalo.
Kodwa inkinga yayiwukuthi abanye abasebenzisi babike ukwehla kwamabha angu-4 noma angu-5 uma bebambe ifoni ngokuqinile ngenkathi bemboza ekhoneni elingezansi kwesokunxele le-iPhone 4. Lokhu ngokuqinisekile ukwehla okukhulu kunokuvamile, ngokusho kwe-Apple. Abamele i-Apple babe sebefunda izibuyekezo eziningi nama-imeyili avela kubasebenzisi ababike lokho iPhone 4 reception ingcono kakhulu kune-iPhone 3GS. Ngakho yini eyabangela?
Ngemva kokuhlola, i-Apple yathola ukuthi ifomula ababeyisebenzisa ukubala inombolo yemigqa kusiginali yayingalungile ngokuphelele. Ezimweni eziningi, i-iPhone ibonise imigqa emi-2 ngaphezu kwesiginali yangempela endaweni. Abasebenzisi ababike ukwehla kwamabha angu-3 noma ngaphezulu ngokuvamile bebesuka endaweni yesignali ebuthaka kakhulu. Kodwa abakwazanga lokho, ngoba i-iPhone 4 yababonisa imigqa yesiginali emi-4 noma emi-5. Mude lowo kodwa isibonakaliso sasingelona iqiniso.
Ngakho i-Apple izoqala ukusebenzisa ifomula enconywe ngu-opharetha i-AT&T ku-iPhone 4. Ngokwale fomula, manje izoqala ukubala amandla esignali. Amandla esignali angempela asazofana, kodwa i-iPhone izoqala ukubonisa amandla esignali ngokunembe kakhulu. Ukuze uthole ulwazi olungcono lomsebenzisi, i-Apple izokwandisa izithonjana zesignali ezibuthakathaka ukuze bangacabangi ukuthi abanayo nhlobo isignali lapho isignali "kuphela" ibuthakathaka.
"Ngephutha" elifanayo ngisho ne-iPhone yasekuqaleni iyahlupheka. Ngakho-ke i-iOS 4.0.1 entsha izokhishwa maduze, ezolungisa lesi siphazamisi ku-iPhone 3G naku-iPhone 3GS futhi. Ekupheleni kwencwadi, i-Apple igcizelela ukuthi i-iPhone 4 iyisisetshenziswa esisebenza kahle kakhulu okungenantambo abasikhiqizile kuze kube manje. Iphinde ixwayise abanikazi be-iPhone 4 ukuthi bangayibuyisela esitolo se-Apple zingakapheli izinsuku ezingama-30 futhi bathole imali yabo.
Lokhu kungaphezulu kokulungiswa kwephutha lezimonyo. Lokhu kuchaza ukuthi kungani abantu endaweni enesignali eqinile bengenazo izinkinga zokuthi amabha ehlehla kancane noma alahle izingcingo. Njengoba kulotshiwe ekubuyekezweni kwethu (kanye nokubuyekezwa ku-iDnes), ababuyekezi abakaze babe nenkinga ngesignali ebuthakathaka. Ngokunjalo, abanye ababuyekezi abavela phesheya bangeza ukuthi lapho bebekade bephonsa khona izingcingo, bangakwazi ukushaya izingcingo nge-iPhone 4 entsha ngaphandle kwezinkinga.
Hhayi bo! Ngangiqala ukungabaza u-Apple. Angiyithandi indlela asebebhekane ngayo nayo isikhathi eside, ngithemba ukuthi kuzohamba kahle ekugcineni futhi okwamanje ngijabule ngokufaka kwethu okuhle :)
Ngilapha futhi ngenxa yalesi sitatimende nesixazululo, angikhathali ukuhlale ngithuka futhi ngikhononda nge-Apple futhi izothula isikhashana :).
Ngakho-ke ngifisa ukwazi ukuthi yini abagxeki be-iPhone 4 ne-Apple bazoza nayo lapha futhi
ngakho ngethemba ukuthi lokhu kuzoxazulula enye inkinga... ingabe ukhona olaziyo iqiniso mayelana nengilazi eku-iP4 ethambekele kakhulu ekuklwebheni kunezinguqulo zangaphambilini?
Ngeke neze..
kahle .. ngithemba nje ukuthi isitolo sezinhlelo zokusebenza eLondon sizogcinwa ngokugcwele ekuqaleni kuka-Agasti futhi ngizoletha okungenani eyodwa ezweni lethu :) (mhlawumbe kuzoba nenguqulo emhlophe futhi)
Phe, iphutha elinjalo nokuthi libize "ihlazo". Ngethemba ukuthi kuyiqiniso futhi ngethemba ukuthi isiqeshana esisesimweni se-iOS4.01 sizosilungisa;)
Isiginali yami ekhaya nayo iyehla nge-iPhone 3G yami, ilokhu ishintsha phakathi kwe-Edge ne-3G (yayicasula ngaze ngathenga i-Wi-Fi), ngakho-ke kuqala isiginali iyehla bese “ilayisha” ukuze igcwale futhi. Mhlawumbe ngemva kuka-4.0.1 ngizoqala ukukubona ngeso lengqondo kahle.
PS: Angikaze ngiphuthelwe ucingo, futhi bengingazama njengoba bengifuna :-)
Ngangine-iPhone 4 mahhala, ngemva kwemizuzu engu-15 ngayinika othile. Kwanele kimi lapho isignali yami iphuma egaraji, lapho ngase ngivele nginezingcingo ezingu-20 futhi akukho neyodwa yazo eyaphuma. Isignali yefoni iyimbi kakhulu. Ngilinganisela u-20-30% omubi kunawokugcina. Anginantshisekelo ekuhlolweni, nginentshisekelo kweqiniso. Nginefoni entsha njalo ngenyanga futhi ngiyakwazi ukukhokhela isilinganiso esinjalo. Namanje angazi ukuthi ngizothengani, ngilinde uhhafu wonyaka (
