The XX

Author corey    Category Media, Music     Tags

One of the benefits of using an online music service, such as Pandora, is that you occasionally get introduced to music you otherwise wouldn’t have heard.

While listening to a channel based on Dead Confederate (another great band), I ran into a band called The XX. They look like a bunch of dorks, but they do make some pretty good music.

iPhone Fails to Notify for New Voice Mails

Author corey    Category Gadgets     Tags

After my brother asked if I got his voice mail earlier today, I realized that my iPhone 3GS hadn’t been notifying me of *any* voice mails for almost 2 weeks – even though I had missed several calls. Turns out I had 7 voice mails waiting for me, which I retreived manually after swearing for a few minutes and threaten to throw my iPhone into the garbage disposal.

I sat down with my phone and started to get it sorted out … first by resetting my network settings (Settings->General->Reset), then upgrading the OS on the phone (from 4.0.1 to 4.0.2), but it still wasn’t picking up any voice mails (I had left a couple as tests). Scouring the Internets revealed little (too much chaff), but I finally stumbled upon a post that lead me to the fix:

CLEAR YOUR DELETED VOICE MAILS!

Apparently, AT&T is happy to keep recording VMails for you, but if your iPhone has too many deleted voice mails – oh no, you don’t get to know about any new ones! Only took me a couple hours to find a fix … Lame-o.
