E_b_l_s Neutral Newbie November 30, 2010 Share November 30, 2010 I received an email from apple stating that the new 4.2 is out. I am using a 3gs. I had upgraded to the 4.1 and regretted as my phone now freezes often and the apps tends to auto exit. I have never jail-broken my phone before. Has anyone tried the iOS 4.2 on a 3gs yet? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interested to know if 3gs can support it or not. Upgraded to 4.2.1, no issues so far If nvr JB why have problems? can share what those problems are? @kingcopa : 4.2.1 can aldy be JB and it is working fine. just that it is only a tethered JB if you are using newer 3Gs and IP4.

Quirky 3rd Gear November 30, 2010 Share November 30, 2010 I am on 3GS. Just upgraded to 4.2. I find it more stable than 4.1. When I was on 4.1, used to have a number of apps which will crash. Now that I am on 4.2, have yet to encounter an app crashing. My phone never JB before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
E_b_l_s Neutral Newbie November 30, 2010 Author Share November 30, 2010 My phone tends to get laggy (espcially with typing) and sometimes even freezes, the apps auto exits.. Basically stuff that was never experienced before with ver. 3.4.1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically stuff that was never experienced before with ver. 3.4.1 i have that too, think because of the multi-task function, need to manually close all the apps.
