   defib you had to wait till 1:00 now you can upgrade to 3.0 i just did. it also matters what time zone you are in. you should probably look at the article on this website about the release times. good luck!

    Ryan on June 17th, 2009 1:01 pm:

    You need an app with notifications (tap tap revenge 2.5) for that to show.

    Hopefully Jailbreak will be out by the time I get home!

    Ok, so I’ve been running the 3.0GM the day after WWDC. The only thing I’m looking forward to right now is the push notifications. And of course my new iPhone 3G S on Friday. Has anyone heard anything about the push notifications yet? Right now I’m looking for that extra “Notification” tab in settings. And its not there yet. Am I missing something to get the push notification started?

    [Reply]

    

    Bharat on June 17th, 2009 2:25 pm:

    Get tap tap revenge 2…that is the only app that supports push notification for thye time…therl b other apps later

    Updated to 3.0, but can’t connect to appstore to finish it…. I guess apple screw up again…another network down issue…

    Great “iPhone Activation Server is currently down, check back shortly”

    Probably would have been a good idea to let people start downloading before the sun was up for the whole country.

    Peter on June 17th, 2009 2:14 pm:

    Do you get this message too?

    “We could not complete your iTunes Store request. The network connection timed out.”

    

    Thomas on June 17th, 2009 2:28 pm:

    Nope, it let me download 3.0 and it checks my current software…then a message pops up that the Activation Server is temporarily down.

    So frustrating.

    had the same issue. unplug it. turn off iphone. then turn it back on and plug it back in. it activated for me after a brief message saying it might take awhile. phew.

    Thomas on June 17th, 2009 2:45 pm:

    Okay, now that seems to be working for me.

    Thanks!

    I’ve tried by switching off n on my iPhone but no result. Still it shows the activation server is down. Any idea when its going to be online again…..;) can’t wait.

    Viresh on June 17th, 2009 4:35 pm:

    There is a workaround.

    When iTunes is extracting the file, switch off you internet connection on your computer before it completed the extraction. This will bypass the activation.

    After the iPhone has been updated, just re-enable your internet connection and once iTunes connects to the iTunes Store, it will activate your phone.

    Enjoy.

    I have updated to 3.0 with my 3g. But my batt percentage function stays. i heard that it has something to do with the 500mb dormant space due to cydia. and i jailbroken it 2 days ago, so is my 500mb still stuck there? or i have to click restore instead of update. Please advise guys.
