Sorry to say this, but FaceTime can't run on your phone (at least not officially) and probably never will. There are two major reasons for this:
1. No Second Camera - The most central reason that FaceTime won't come to the 3GS or 3G is that those models have only one camera on the back, while FaceTime requires a user-facing camera. The user-facing camera is needed to take video of you while also allowing you to see the person you're calling on the screen. While the 3GS or 3G's back camera could take video of you fine, you wouldn't be able to see the person you're talking to--thus negating the idea of a video chat.
2. No Software - Because their hardware doesn't support FaceTime, Apple doesn't make the FaceTime software available for either of these models, even with iOS 4 or higher installed.- Answered by Alex M from Houston

Can I use the Nike+ Running app with the Nike+ shoe sensor or does it only work with my phone's accelerometer? I'd prefer to use the Running app.
I have an iPhone 4s and just bought a new pair of Nike Structures'. I also bought the Nike + iPod Sensor. However, I intend to do running workouts almost exclusively. Is there a way to tie the Nike+ Sensor to the Nike+ Running app instead of having it report to the Nike + iPod app?

- Asked about: Nike + iPod Sensor
Best Answer
It doesn't appear so - I went to Niketown this past week and asked them - until last week I have been running outdoors with my iPhone 4S with the Nike+ Running app (no sensor) without issues - I like the interface and "post to facebook" features.
But since I also want to run indoors I inquired whether this same app can allow me to run on a treadmill while placing the phone on the treadmill cup holder/cradle (instead of shaking the phone's accelerometer like a madmen at my gym). The "running specialist" at Niketown Seattle told me that in the case where I want to run indoors I would need to buy the sensor (which I did), but she also warned me that the specific RUNNING app does not work with the sensor, and I would need to use the Nike+ iPod app.
So basically when I:
- run outdoors I use the iPhone 4S and the N+ Running app (and GPS). Great Facebook visual feedback
- run indoors on a treadmill I use the iPhone 4S and the N+ iPod app (and the sensor). Not sure if it even has FB posting capabilities
Leave it to the geniuses at Nike software product development to confuse the heck out of people - beats me why they can't just consolidate the Running and iPod app.- Answered by Lewis L from San Gabriel

voice recognition applications
I am deaf. Is there an application available for iPhone that will translate the spoken word into written world I can read?

Answer
I don't know of any general-purpose voice-recognition apps that would do what you would need, but there are apps that support telephone relay services. One app I can recommend (because I helped write it) is Sprint IP. It's completely free, and it will allow you to place and receive calls on your iPhone through a relay operator.

iOS 6 enables you to go over cellular and wifi. I would recommend to keep your facetime over cellular to an all time low because facetime will consume your data quickly.

The iPhone does not come with Navigaition. You have download it from the App store!
But if you are willing to compromise use apple's Maps app I find it pretty easy for getting around.
The best Navigation Application in my view is TOMTOM- Answered by Abdullah Y

Yes. If you sync both iPhones to the same iTunes account and library on your computer, then you will be able to copy the apps and video onto your new iPhone.

As soon as you sync your new phone with your iTunes account, all of your apps should transfer. My iPad and iPhone share all of the apps, and I'm going to get another iPad for my kids so they can share all of the game apps, too!
