Nope, it isn't just you--it's everyone.
Thanks, Steverino.

Others have complained of that problem. The iPhone 3G barely gets by
with iOS 4

Change is inevitable.
Conservatives should learn that "inevitable" is not a synonym for "bad."

(Sheepish grin) OK, I have a 3GS. mea culpa.
On the other hand, my son is not complaining about his 3G
being slower.

hmmm. Let me think.
O yes, there's this new-fangled thing, called Google (0r Bing). You open
virtually any browser, go to the the Search box (except in Chrome, which
has only one text entry box for both), and type in "revert to iPhone 3.x"
(you may have to try more than one way of saying it to get what you're
looking for), then pick from the many options that appear. Some will be
better than others.
I suggest you copy the above paragraph and put it somewhere you can find it
the next time you want to know how to do most anything. Then you don't have
to pester others that have better things to do than hold you hand.

There is no supported way of doing it, and any "under the table" way of
doing it is definitely going to be quite risky. May I suggest this
article on downgrading your iPhone 3G (I do not condone downgrading
simply because it could easily screw up your device)

Hope
it goes well. JUST MAKE SURE TO BACK UP ALL OF YOUR STUFF. Don't make
your device a brick.

The question was on topic & appropriate. Where your response was the

That's all? Just a 3? I'm really dissappointed.
I See
Yes, download your chosen FW, connect your 3G, click Shift and Restore in
iTunes, select your saved FW ipsw file and restore.
When finished, you'll get error 1015.
Download "iHackintosh iRecovery Package for Windows & Mac", install LibUSB
and run iRecovery from the command prompt (there are four commands).
Once rebooted, you'll be back on your chosen FW.

My 3G was quite slow when I first upgraded to iOS4. But I followed some
advice on the Apple Support Forum. A combination of Settings -> General ->
Reset -> Reset All Settings, followed by a full shut down and restart did
wonders to improve the operation.

Thankyou very much for that- the "lag" on input seems to have vanished on my
iPhone 3G, after that.

Hear, hear! As Larry Wall said, “There ain’t nothing in this world

(On the other hand, it was a bit of overkill for the OP to

Hi Wes
I only count 3 replies to him and 2 were in direct response to his post the
3rd was something I forgot to say in one of the other replies :-)
I have tried the reset option mentioned in this listing and I think it is
responding a little quicker do hope there is a 'fix' from Apple for it
though.
Thanks everyone for their help.

My 3G works fine.
Some things are quicker. For example, Stanza used to take forever to
load a big book. Now it is much quicker.
The camera zoom is worthwhile

Take three steps forward to zoom in and three steps back to zoom out,
seems to work well however beware of hazards in your path such as cliff
edges or rivers.

that's not the same as a zoom lens, not to mention the fact that no
iphone has a zoom lens (digital zoom does not count, it's a hack).

Even the iphone cannot replace a sense of humour.

The camera app in iOS4 has a simulated zoom.
Tap on the image, and a slider appears.
Slide it to make the image larger (and
quite grainy on a 3GS)

Which was a dumb move on Apple's part.
Invent a clever gesture, and as soon as
it becomes second-nature to your customers,
make them use something else.

pinching would be absolutely stupid in that situation, especially since
it would obscure the subject, and unlike a previously taken photo, the
image is not static (except maybe for still life photography).
a slider for a zoom control works like the zoom ring on a real camera
lens.
or would you prefer the p&s version of zoom, a pair of buttons labelled
w & t, which you repeatedly tap to zoom?
a slider makes perfect sense in this instance.

You think so? It didn't. For one thing, it's not pinching to zoom in,
it's spreading. And I tried exactly what works on photos: Put a finger
on each side and pull apart. Neither on a "live" not a static image
does that obscure what is between my fingers.

That sounds like fodder for a stupid flame war over definitions.

Why would you ask me that? Didn't I make it obvious I preferred the
two-finger gesture I'd already gotten used to?
> a slider makes perfect sense in this instance.
Not to me, and not to the people who had to be told how to make the
slider appear.
I prefer what I prefer. Neither the Apple haters nor the Apple lovers
can tell me what I should prefer. Well, they can tell me, but it
doesn't change me. Just like my telling you won't change you.
If you like it, you like it. I don't: I think they came up with a great
intuitive idea and they should have stuck with it.

digital zoom is nothing more than cropping when you take the photo. you
have a *lot* more control in post processing. crop exactly what you
want, which can change, and rotate if needed along with whatever other
adjustments might be necessary.

I have a 3G (Yes, I'm sure it's not 3GS), and I have camera digital
zoom. I found it accidentally. Touch the screen, anywhere in the
image, (not in the bar with the shutter button), and a zoom slider will
pop up.
