iPod Touch

My iPod Touch 16GB isn’t playing nice! I have these screenshots of what it’s doing to me! Still has wrapping! I might have to take this to Apple.img_1147.jpgitouchserial.jpg

  1. I wouldn’t. I’d offer that thing up to an iPod hacking team. My bet is that you’d be able to get a pretty penny for it, since it apparently shipped with the diagnostic software and no OS loaded.

  2. I LOVE the icon for the Cereal, er, Serial Number. :)

  8. I wouldn’t take it to Apple just yet. I’m sure there are plenty of people who might be interested to check this out in a little more detail ;)

    sell it on ebay with a reserve price higher than retail, I bet you make something decent off of it!

  10. Some advice. Do not take this back to Apple. Put it on E-bay and wait for the bids to come rolling in. :)

  11. get in touch with the hackers and get that bluetooth radio turned on ;)

  13. Dont send it back!

    Hackers would love to buy this off you!

  14. You should try to hard-reset it. As apparently there is OS X installed in it, according to the screenshot you made of the serial number page, put the testing team didn’t rebooted back to OS X and left the phone on the maintenance menu.

    At least it seems then that there is some hidden menus… Can you enable Bluetooth with that menus?

  15. sell it on ebay, someone will probaly be willing to pay a good price for it, more thhan a new one costs.

    ipod hackers could find it extremely intresting.

    it says “speaker”… at first I thought it might be referring to the headphones but seeing as there’s also a button for headphones… or does the ipod touch have speakers?

  21. I’d hang on to that one. You will definitely get some nice offers for that unit

    dude… sell that shit to hackers… lets get some crazy homebrew apps for these things. Then maybe I’ll buy one

    Whoa…. Scary. What else has been going on with it? Could you take a look at our blog story on new iPod touches and verify some of the facts in it? Maybe in comment form?

  29. and how much you say you paid for this crap? lol :D

  30. $399 for the 16GB is what I paid, plus tax. I was originally going to get the 8gb. But, when I saw they had stock of just the 16gb, i fell for it. lol.

  31. dude – don’t sell it. Then the Chinese pirate/thieves will get a hold of it and make their rip-offs even faster. They don’t need any help.

  32. They look really nice. I would love to have one, but I just wished they had them priced for less.

  36. no, this is the iPod Touch. I already have it in hand. The one that was supposed to come out Sept 28th. This is not an iPhone.

  37. bandgeeksareawesome Says:

    bro, that crap never works. It’s just like the iPhone issue. Apple always has a problem with their latest prototypes. I’d say ship it back to Apple and tell them it’s complete crap.

  38. Apple sux.

    Can’t even replace the battery – you are being used

  39. It’s dusty. Clean the screen cover. XD

  45. Switch the Cheerios to Froot Loops and you’ll be good to go.

  46. It’s probably the touch screen that is messing it up. Those touch products are so touchy. LOL

  47. I got the 16gig yesterday and I’m having the same problem:/ i synced my itunes library to it but it stills boots up in diagnostic mode. I’ve tried everything i can think of but nothing has worked. This is frustrating:(

  48. you should poop on it.

  49. Down with Apple!

  50. Hi,

    My personal apologies for any inconvenience this unit may have caused you, please take it into your nearest Apple Store for a full refund and a 100$ gift voucher which is redeemable towards your next purchase at any Apple Store.

    Kind Regards,
    SJ

  51. Wow, I hope you’ll get it fixed soon! Looks cool though.

  53. This is so obviously fake, how can you people fall for this?

    Cheerios box for the serial number? Buttons? There’s only one button.

    There is no bluetooth on the device so there would in no way be an option to enable it.

    Temperature.. 45?

  54. hay

    cherrybear here i was just woundering if know how much an iphone costs dats all thanx

    ~cherrybear~

  55. Is that previous post really from SJ? Let us know!

  56. This isn’t a photochop.
    Its legit, and you should sell it.

  57. [...] New iPod Touches ship without an OS. Goo! I don’t know the ins and outs of modern manufacturing, but when you don’t have an actual hard drive to load software onto, that means blank chips get loaded onto the iPod and then flashed with the OS. I suppose that makes sense, but isn’t that something they could, you know, check for? Which brings us to our next little nugget: 20″ iMacs have faulty screens? Are you kidding me with this? I don’t even know what to say for this, we’re dealing with an all-in-one computer here, you can’t exactly skimp on the screen and upgrade it later. When you’re asked to spend over a grand on a computer you probably have certain standards, unreasonable as that may sound to Cupertino. Speaking of unreasonable… [...]

[...] Esta iPod probablemente vale mucho más de lo que su dueño pagó, ya que en vez del sistema operativo, contiene un programa de prueba de Apple con varios iconos con curiosidades como WiFi, Bluetooth (que se supone que la iPod no tiene), acelerador de batería, altavoces (que tampoco la iPod Touch tiene), número de serie (con un icono de una caja de cereales),etc. [...]

  63. This goes to the people writting in other languages, share the love, write also in english, or learn other languages ;-)

    Ich bitte dich, scribieren in englisch. Deutsch is sehr gut, aber, bitte… Deutschland rulez… :-)

    In the below paragraph I say that in gizmodo.com they said that they passed music via bluetooth to a sony rolly… and that there are several things “they” don’t recognize in the touch.

    Hey, en gizmodo.com mencionan que en una reunión que tuvieron en japón habia un rolly (de la sony, reproduce musica por bluetooth) y este estaba bailando y tocando musica por medio del bluetooth de un iPod Touch. Otra cosa interesante es que el chip del wireless no es el mismo del iPhone, puede que ahí este el bluetooth. Además hay un montón de chips que no saben de que son en el touch.

    bye…

  64. Nicaragua rulez….

  65. That is a big mistake made by Apple!

  66. very interesting, but I don’t agree with you

  67. hi

    Mine was the same this i sold it on ebay for £250 but on mine the Bluetooth Icon was flashing as if it were trying to enable its self.????

    If anyone knows how to enable bluetooth tell every 1

  68. It looks amazing! Thanks for posting it. I hope to be use it soon and help improve and advocate it even more.

  69. Have U plugged into your computer yet? plug it in, open up itunes ,if it shows ur ipod, go to summary and hit restore, the process takes a kinda a long time but not that long, and after it reboots, let it sync and then slide to unlock and TADA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    but U should try to have some iphone-ipod touch hackers help U out , they could like, turn it into an iphone and all that junk. that ipod is pretty cool though

    hope I could help

    Dyl

    what the hell, its gotta be fake the top picture it says “serial number” there is a picture of a box of cherios sorry but i dont think that is like apple.

  72. Seizzure Says:

    i want to lol at all your faces for believing this is real

    as that guy before sed, look at the temperature

    there is no bluetooth on ipod touch

    and the ceral box is just taking the piss out of you all and the dude must be loling right now.

    i could do exactly the same thing as this, just create on macromedia fireworks 320 by 480 picutre, enter these fake pics, upload to ipod, view image on it own, jobs a gooden

  73. This case makes the iPod very easy to grip. The belt clip rotates well and grips well. The rubber protects the iPod very well from drops. The only thing that is not protected is the click wheel. When I travel, I keep the iPod in cheap camera case with the headphones so that it is protected.

    When I first received my TouchSkin, the clip was not securing tightly to the case because the piece that holds it was stuck. I sent the company an e-mail. A few days later, they sent me THREE replacement clips for free. This level of customer service is not seen these days so I am very happy with my purchase.
