So my iPod had been disconnecting since I got it. I assumed it was a problem with my MiFi device, but it wasn't. My iPod constantly disconnects no matter what WiFi I'm on, MiFi, truck stop, dads house, moms house. Even sitting right next to the router didn't help.
I did a lot of of research on this issue, and I found out its not just my iPod, or iPods in general. It's all Apple products. I read reports of iPads, iPhones, and even Mac computers having this issue. I failed to find a solution.
Well I've been beating the crap out of my iPod after the first month I got it (because of this issue). I had it for almost a year. Constant disconnecting is extremely frustrating. And when I say it disconnects, it's pretty much random. Sometimes once an hour (very rare to go this long). Sometimes within 5 seconds of reconnecting. Sometimes every 10 seconds for 2 minutes.
Imagine watching a YouTube video, and it disconnects 7 times in 5 minutes, and it takes about 8 seconds for the Network menu to pop up to reconnect. Very annoying. Well this happens all the time on my iPod.
To release my frustrations of this thing's disconnection issue, I beat it up. I've stabbed it with a pen, leaving a nick on the screen, I always slam it agains the table. Throw it at something. Punch it. Hold it hard and twist it, bend it, ect. It just won't break. Until now.
You should see my iPod. It's hideous. Screen won't snap back on, only held on by glue on the bottom. The back looks like the moon. It's full of dents and craters. The middle of the back is caved in, and there's dents on the sides. You can see the backlight around the edges of the screen, and in the camera hole.
I have to give it credit for being a tough device though. I'm surprised this is the first time I broke it. It's not really broke though because I fixed it. The connection to the screen came undone, so I pried open the screen and plugged it back in. Doing a small amount of damage to the display though. Little bit of grayness in the bottom right corner that won't go away. The screen was already popping out, because of all the abuse I gave it in the last couple months. Just took a tiny metal thing and finished prying the bottom. Fairly easy fix and I'm proud of myself. I also had the power bottom get mashed in. I pried that back open.
This crapper only needs to last 2 more days. I ordered a Razr Maxx and it's at home waiting for me. Hopefully the Maxx doesn't have any issues.
So anyone else with an iPod or Apple device have this disconnecting issue? I was thinking about waiting for a 4g iPhone if I don't like Android, but if it has disconnecting issues I'll pass.
