    upgraded iphone to IOS 5 and now my philips tower dock will not play the iphone properly, if i put the iphone in the cradle sound plays through the phone speaker, and cuts out every now and then as it appears that the dock is trying to recognise the phone..


    looks like i am not the only one http://www.supportforum.philips.com/en/showthread.php?2733-DCM580-12-Iphone-4-IOS5 if you have a dock, think carefully before upgrading!

    is it possible to revert to ios 4.3.5?


    cheers

    is there any way that we can easily revert to 4.3.5?

    I did a reboot and it worked by pressing power and home button together until apple logo shows

    Wft? That shouldn't work.
    Pressing home and power until Apple logo shows just reboots the phone (and reconstitutes the ios), it doesn't revert it to a previous version.

    Afaik, you can downgrade but it's not an easy process.

    I'm assuming you mean that the reboot corrected the issue in relation to playing the iphone on the music system....'cause it sure as hell didn't allow you to step back to a previous FW version.

    had already tried the hard reset on the iphone, no joy, the philips dock still does not recognise the phone.

    Thanks for letting us know about this issue. I would think this is of huge concern to all. Maybe a moderator should/could sticky your thread to keep it on the front page?

    Had a problem with my tower, young lad knocked off the ipod and when i put it back on the system, the ipod did not recognise. if i just tilt the ipod forward a little it plays, so the only way to get it to play is to put something behind the ipod to keep it leaning forward!!

    Ay ideas what is wrong. did i bend the socket on tower or ipod, even though the ipod is suppose to lean backwards and play,cant seem to get a connection right??


    Thanks

    This worked! Thank you all so much. I had lost belief in my tower (DCM 580/05). The firmware upgrade was so simple. Joe Bonamassa now blaring at volume 20!
