Upgraded to iPhone 2.1, for me its the buggiest release yet. I frequently get “No Service” which only a reboot of the iPhone will fix. Also, 2.1 seems to draw more power. I now need to charge my iPhone every day, as opposed to every 2nd day previously.

I have had precisely the same issue with an Apple component cable. For quite a while now, my husband and I have been using the cable and my iPhone to rent movies. I can take it to the gym, or I can share it with hubby via the component cable and his Widescreen. No longer. Not since immediately after updating the software, when I received the same message you did.

Just updated to 2.1 when I plugged my travel cable with the headset plugged in (needed recharcge after talking 16 minutes). Got the same problem; no more mention icon, and got the error message. The headset is not a strong product, got a several flaws I believe (no light telling you it’s on, quick to lose juice, etc.). If I have to go through a restore, I guexx I’ll just use another headset…

jayrck: I searched on the error and found a number of others say it has to do with an iTunes downloading error. Check out this link:

Scroll to the bottom where the person describes this possible solution:

http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7322718

“Look for a folder called “Downloads” in your iTunes Music folder. If there is such a folder, look for files that would be the partial download and delete those, so that the download starts over from the beginning. Then try again using the “Check for Purchases” command under the iTunes Store menu.”

I have the same unsupported problem with a 3′rd party Component cable I bought off ebay. But mine no longer works!!
I can get it to play a few seconds of video before the video goes off and then doesn’t recognize the cable till its unplugged and reconnected.
I bought one of Apples $50 component cables, but also wanted to wire one in my car to the roof flip down LCD for my kids.
Didn’t want to spend another $50 so found one on e-bay that said it worked. I even double checked that it did work fine with the 3G even though the auction said it did. Its worked fine for the last few weeks, until I updated to 2.1. Now it will only play a few seconds of video before “loosing connection, or something) the cable still works fine with my wife’s non upgraded iPhone. Mine also does work with Apples $50 cable, I think they are just trying to limit competition like they did with all video products on the previous iPod upgrade.
(oh also had my iPhone give an unsupported message with a griffin Power Cable once, every other time its still worked)
