Make your own ringtones for FREE in iTunes!!! It works!!! One step they left out on the video is to write down the original start and stop time to change your original song back in iTunes on the original song.

Copy and paste this link

Another headphone tip. We know you can skip forward by double clicking, but you can also skip back by hold then double click. almost like morse code. So if skipping foward is (tap, tap) skipping back is (hold, tap, tap)

For the music lover in you. Download "Pandora" from the app store. It's a free download. Pandora is a free internet radio site (www.pandora.com) that allows you to establish your own music list based on artist, song, etc. I setup an account online first. An email address and password is all that's required. After the account is setup, type in the name of an artist you like. The site will begin playing a selection by that artist. From that point the site plays songs by artists with a similar style. The neat thing is the music is non-stop, commercial free and what you setup online plays via the pandora app on your iphone. You can estabish different "stations" (example: love songs, jazz, gospel). So whatever the mood you have non-stop music to fuel the fire. Enjoy.

Here are some tips you guys may find useful.
1. Two ways to save images
You're surfing the Internet in Safari and stumble upon a photo you'd like to save. Simply press and hold on a photo when on a website and you'll be prompted with a menu asked if you'd like to "Save Image." Once the photo is saved, you can view it offline, email it or set it as wallpaper.

On a related note, if you want to take a screenshot of a website or application, press down on the Home button and tap the Sleep button. You'll hear the camera click, see a white flash and the screenshot will be saved.

2. Oh those magic headphones
Those trendy white earbuds do more than you might realize. The iPhone's headphones have a small button on the microphone and it performs multiple functions. For example, press once to start the iPod and begin playing a song. Press again to pause the track or double-tap to skip to the next song.

If a call comes in, press the button once to answer or double-tap to send the call right to voicemail. During a call, press once to hang up.

3. Browser tricks
Want to know an easy way to scroll to the top of a website in Safari? Simply tap at the top of the phone screen, where the time, battery and signal bars are. Doing this works in most applications, but in Safari it also brings up the URL to type in a new website.

If your preferred search engine is set to Google in Safari you don't need type in the "www" and ".com" for many websites. For example, simply type "usatoday" (without the quotes) in the URL window. If you need to type a domain suffix (e.g. ".net"), press and hold the ".com" button for ".net," ".edu," ".org" shortcut keys and use your finger to slide between them.

4. No place like Home
There are many uses for that circular Home button, located in the center and bottom of your iPhone. If you've got ten pages of applications to peruse through, you can quickly go back to the first page by pressing the Home button once (here's where you should drag and drop your most used apps). By the way, you can also tap the bottom left or right corners of the screen to switch between pages instead of swiping your finger across.

Double-tapping the Home button brings up your phone's Favorites screen, where you can list the people you call the most. If you prefer, edit the Home button's function in Settings so when you double-tap the Home button it takes you right to your music playlists.

5. Little-known email tips
You can delete unwanted emails en masse rather than deleting one at a time. In your Inbox, simply click the Edit button and check off the emails you want to delete with your finger and then choose Delete. Otherwise, to delete a single email, simply swipe the email sideways and you'll see the red "Delete" button option.

One of the biggest issues iPhone users have is typing an email on the "soft keyboard" with the email's vertical screen layout. But there are a handful of free App Store downloads, such as EasyWriter, that can resolve this by letting you hold the phone horizontally (landscape view) and thus offering a wider keyboard with bigger buttons.

I had those problems too. If you are still within your warrenty period I would take it back to the apple store. I had a problem with dropped calls and the new phone helped
