Acc. to me Apple products are good for show off...

Same is the case with MacBook. My friend thinks his MacBook Pro worth Rs 80000 is better than windows laptops of 50-60k price range

There are better things out there for show off.
Almost every other person has a iPhone.
For show off,Lumia 920/htc one would have been more appropriate.
Do you know most decent Windows laptops also cost lot of money,your 50-60k dv6 or xps etc. are not even considered decent,let alone good.

Sometimes due to the annoying restrictions in apple iphones and windows phone its hard to consider them as actual smartphones.
If you compare closely on features and other misc stuff , android phones are the only true "smart" phones. (I Don't wanna start a flame war on mobile OS here.:D . This is just my view ;))

iOS is rubbish. I've said a lot of times.

One more thing, you can only read 2-3~ days of call logs. lol.

You meant 2-3 days ?
Because I can see even 15 days back of logs. Or you meant max 30 days ? Then I am sorry I don't know.

Depends on the number of calls you get. My father is able to see only ~3 days on the phone because he receives a lot of phone calls.

So I had iPhone 4s in my hands which belonged to an uncle of my friend. Had used his phone once before; Slick interface, nothing new to mention. The whole incident started when he asked me to send some songs to it. I already knew that iTunes was required for it. My friend had some software which he had downloaded to transfer songs, but it required iTunes. My "journey" began now. I downloaded iTunes. Played it with for half an hour, couldn't figure out how to transfer songs. :| Searched all over net but nothing helped me. :?

I tried some other softs, hoping to get some help. But nothing worked. A software called DiskAid allowed me access to iPhone folders with power to transfer files. But to my surprise nothing changed in the iPhone.

One more thing, there was nothing called "refresh" in music player. I really wonder what iOS architects think while designing the OS. I even restarted the phone but of no avail.

All this happened 2 days ago. I again went there today for some work and thought to give it a try once again. And again, I "wasted" an hour. :|

While syncing music, it said that it will replace the a-z of the iPhone. I was seriously not expecting this. Obviously I skipped this.

After all the effort along with the help of mighty Google baba, nothing could help me to do a small task which no one could think even time-taking at first thought. Just a right click and send to would do it. How hard it was ? But it's none other than iPawn, which really owned me. I was feeling such a shame on myself.

What's the use of so called "simplicity" which creates such complexity ? I don't know where did I sucked but I really wonder how many people would be able to do it.

Hail iJobs. :hail:

Disclaimer: This isn't an iPhone rant, more of iOS rant. And since I haven't used iPhone for prolong periods, so can't comment on other aspects, so would refrain from discussing about them.

Regards

Were those songs pirated?

iOS is rubbish. I've said a lot of times.

one of the most greatest inventions and you call it rubbish. Wow!

I did not know that. Apologies.

Yes he meant 2-3 days only.

You're able to do so because you have already JB'ed your iPhone, and I guess he hasn't.

I don't think jailbreak is of any play here. As @ico mentioned it is dependent on number of calls one receives / does in which case mine would be less calls and hence i have more log data.

there are n number of ways to consume music on iphone, official apps, IAP tracks in rhythm games, youtube, internet radio apps, podcasts
using an iOS device is different from using any other device out there, and there are some shifts in how you use your device over time, trying to give a sense of what it feels to actually like this ecosystem, and prefer it to alternatives
goes from
using free apps only > using paid apps only
having lots of music, ebooks, comics, podcasts, videos and photos > only podcasts and apps, photos and videos in apple cloud
thinking IAP is a waste of money, instead picking up content during price drops > realising that everything drops to free some time or the other, better to invest in IAP exclusively (eg: instead of picking up infinity blade when it hits $1, wait for it to hit 0 and then pick up $1 worth of coin that is with you at the start of every new bloodline1. a fraction of even iOS users see it this way, if you can check out the vehement comments against IAP at toucharcade forums, which is iOS gaming HQ.)
using apps > using subscription based services

all this takes time, nobody can be expected to know what they need and enjoy the second they pick up a pod.

I don't know what you are talking about, but syncing songs is pretty simple. Must be a problem at your side.
