Must be a few tweaks for things like GPS access?

randomrazor · Jun 9, 2008, 05:18 PM

I think this version will tell us a little more what the gps and 3g can and can't do ... can't wait to see what people find

admanimal · Jun 9, 2008, 05:21 PM

GPS locations would just be accessed using the same old Core Location service that has been in there since the first beta, so probably not much has changed because of that.

Just installed and...... Safari seems snappier

App store now states "The App Store is not supported in this country."
Instead of "Cannot connect"

looking forward to seeing what the updates can really do

safari is definitely much snappier and stable. exchange pushes are also more push like than before. still no message search or copy/paste. ringtones also seem to fail now.

Seems my interface builder crashes whenever it tries to access the library...

MadDoc · Jun 11, 2008, 06:45 AM

I get the same problem,

If I open IB and scroll the library - as soon as I get to about the level of the datepicker control the app just hangs.

IB also won't even open when I double-click a .xib file in Xcode.

Anyone else suffering from this? I have repaired permissions to no avail.

MadDoc,

MadDoc,

yeah. me too.
i can click on a .xib file, but i can't drag anything from the library and when i scroll down it stops responding.
what can we do? i wrote to apple, but no luck.

Re-download the SDK.

I also had this problem with Interface Builder, I re-downloaded the SDK, and no longer have this problem. Seems Apple re-uploaded the SDK yesterday or the day before due to this issue.

and you are ok

This may sound weird but what is your system timezone set to?

Just try setting your timezone to 'Cupertino, USA' and run IB - see if it fixes the crash. I think it is a bug in the Cocoa Touch DatePicker widget. It fixed mine.

MadDoc,

AJB · Jun 16, 2008, 01:56 AM

Just found this while browsing for additional iPhone 3G details ... See links. Beta lists carriers in iPhone 2.0 Firmware ... some of which have yet to
announce (eg. Telstra in Australia):
