I've been using iOS 7 as my daily driver since about Beta 4 (yes I'm a developer; 1 through 3 were a little iffy for me). Anyway as I've been using GM for a couple days I've noticed a couple of small things that COULD features be intended features/changes but may also be bugs. I figured I'd ask MR before filing a bug report.

Firstly the Field Test Mode number indicator doesn't stay permanent. In previous versions of iOS this would stay after leaving the field test app... Following the same setup path as usual this doesn't work (phone>dial *3001#12345#*>hold sleep wake>hold home button)

Scaling images to set as wallpaper doesn't work. They just bounce back into place without the slightest change

Anyone else having these problems? Or are they intended?

Thanks,
Simon

YES!! the wallpaper scaling thing drives me nuts. Replaced my "good" wallpaper and wanted to go back but couldn't. Did a screenshot of the pic I wanted which was "better" for sizing purposes but lost some quality

network field test numbers

Mine wasn't sticking either. I made it stay by entering the *3001#12345#* as usual, but instead of first holding the power button until seeing the slider and then holding the home button - I held both the power and home at same time forcing a full shutdown. When the phone powered back up...voila...my field test number was there and is staying.;)
