          Got my iMessage and Facetime sorted out finally. Guy at apple told me that it seems like most people that did the update via WiFi are having this issue. Told me to DL the new 7.0.2 to my comp then when finished update my phone. Then had to back up my phone anderase everything off of it. Then restart it like a brand new phone. Once it was setup like new i could activate my iMessage and Facetime!!! Lastly was just a matter of restoring all my backed up info. FINALLY FUCK!

            Downloaded 7.0.2 this morning. Haven't had any problems with the first version though

              ^7.0.2 is the 3rd version 😉 (7.0.0,7.0.1, 7.0.2)

              7.0.1 has a nice 'bug' that with the phone locked, if you click the emergency area, then activate Siri, she'd dial the whoever you requested. I was playing with it at work on some guy's phones, freaked them the F out. Very happy to be running 7.0.2 🙂

                  Honestly, my life would be easier if I didn't pay attention to some stuff. Very loosely work related, and my mind's got a kink for such things, so I go with it 🙂

                    My grievances against iOS 7 are well-documented here, and doubtless tiresome.  I have to add another, specifically to Music, specifically to a behavior I already griped about, the landscape album art browser.

                    I hate it for all the reasons detailed above, though I forgot to mention that, regardless of what you're listening to, the nonsensical UI always starts out with the first alphabetical album title.  So, even though I'm listening to an album starting with "W," this obtuse UI, which wouldn't even be useful if it started there in my album listing, compounds its uselessness by starting at the top alphabetically.

                    But here's something EVEN WORSE.  Even if I am watching a music video, I found out today, against YEARS of established UI convention, rather than showing me a full screen of the video, it goes to this goddamn stupid album tile view.  That's right folks, there is literally no way to get a full screen view of a music video.

                    What in the unholy fuck is going on at Apple?

                    Here is the ONLY way I can view a music video:

                    Think it, be it.

                      MCL I don't listen to music on my phone (not hating, I just don't), it is such a core piece of their offering, seems totally off. They're not even updating iPods any more, really. I would imagine if you rotated your phone it'd properly show the video, either that or start it through Videos. I imagine they've changed the nature for doing what you're trying to do….or hope at least....

                        It's a straight up regression, full screen in iTunes is gonzo, period. Check out the obnoxious behavior on iPad:

                        That's right, the video is bigger in a portrait orientation than it is in the video's native aspect ratio for the device.

                        It does work in Videos, but that's not good enough. I shouldn't have to launch into another app. In fact, they could even link from Music to Video to have a decent workflow.

                        Think it, be it.

                          Okay, so there is a solution, which is good, but I agree that it's a regression in functionality. What were they smoking? I still believe they rushed 7.0 out. I'd prefer no parallax but images for breadcrumbs. Having text for breadcrumbs is rather annoying.

                              Offices about it being rushed is correct that's my suspicion as well

                                Ok, don't laugh. I just bought a 4S with iOS7.

                                It's my first leap into the world of smart phones (obviously, I am a "late adopter".)

                                Any advice on a nice case? Not giant and rubbery. Something a little sleek. Possibly even a handmade leather option?

                                    I have a ballistic case for my 5. Very slim and protective. May be one you can use.
