Yeah, it would, but then again, if it's anything like the iCloud restore calculator then no thanks haha. That thing is wildly inaccurate.
Got a tip for us?

Same here. I'm trying to find a quick and easy way to downgrade from iOS 10.3.2 beta to the official 10.3.1. I'm actually tired of all the beta updates and my Onkyo App is now broken on the last beta. So yes, it's the complete opposite and Samsung should be shamed for not understanding the importance of software upgrades. They make a very sexy phone but when these devices carry a premium price tag updates should be top priority. But sadly most consumers do not care about updates.
The whole update took about 20 minutes. I don't know why, but the 7+ update speed is much slower than my older 6s+ was. Also as mentioned you can't go by the progress bar which is always wrong.
Isn't it nice to use a company that cares about its customers security?! Major updates always get followed up with a fixer update that is significantly smaller
If only the updates didn't often come with bugs and poor design changes, and weren't permanent.
Not completely true, you can still fall back to an earlier version, mostly 0.1 backwards, for as long as those are signed, after that you can't.
Cool, thanks. I never upgraded to 10.3 because of the iTunes requirement. Still worried to upgrade to the new filesystem with the impending death of 32-bit support.
There's some circumstantial evidence that 32-bit devices aren't getting the new file system. Someone reported the update on his iPhone 5 took about 10 minutes, which is way to short to convert to the new file system.
Download the iOS 10.3.1 ipsw file then use shift/update in windows or whatever the Mac keys are in iTunes and browse to the ipsw file you downloaded. That will "update" to the version of the ipsw file.
7 plus took 15 mins to install.
And don't trust the progress bar. It goes from 40% to 100% in 2 seconds

Done... the update in my SE took about 8 minutes..
The progress bar.... erm.. progressed.. to about 20% kinda slowly... Then, the screen went black... and it after 3 or 5 seconds, it lit up. Then the progress bar went to about 30% fast, when all of a sudden, it got to 100%. Then, it just asked for my 6 digit code.
Everything seems to be ok.

Up and running just fine on my iPhone 6S and iPad Air 2. The update took awhile, even though I had 10.3 installed already.
I was wondering that. Not giving the old devices the new filesystem would seem to be what Apple would plan. Usually, Apple would put something like that in a major number change release. I assume the WikiLeaks as others have noticed pushed up the release of the new system and today's wifi update.
I am getting the error message "Updating to iOS 10.3.1 requires at least 770 MB of free space on your iPhone. Please change your media sync options to make more storage available." and I have 4 gigs free....what gives?
She's kinda stupid, which is why I do not use her. She can barely get the weather right half the time.
Just one week after releasing iOS 10.3, a major update that included Apple Filesystem and Find My AirPods, Apple has released iOS 10.3.1, which appears to be a minor update to address bugs and other issues that have popped up since the release of iOS 10.3.
iOS 10.3.1 is available as a free over-the-air update for all iOS 10 users, and it can also be downloaded via iTunes.
According to Apple's release notes, iOS 10.3.1 includes bug fixes and improves the security of your iPhone or iPad, and a security document suggests it fixes a Wi-Fi-related vulnerability. The release notes do not go into more detail about what bug fixes might be bundled into this release, so we'll update this post if and when we learn more about the content of the iOS 10.3.1 update.

My only issue is…Why can't we download anything over 100mb on cellular,not everyone carries a wifi pocket device around with them or is near a wifi booth. Maybe iOS 11 will give us the ability to Download over 100mb via cellular
They could give us the full technical info to carry out the attack.
Or, they could publish the full code and the patch details so that we can circumvent the patch and still perform the attack.
/sarcasm
Google already did that

This issue was reported in January. It looks like Apple managed to leave it out from 10.3 or Broadcom/Cypress was really late getting it to Apple.

turns out I COULD NOT update through iTunes, but OTA worked fine. Weird. iTunes kept telling me I needed more media space.
I found that Touch ID is much quicker to unlock the phone now. I can't tell about wifi as I am not on my home wifi system

Maybe the updates are slower because on the 7/7+ with the A10 Fusion Chip the system is just using the two energy-efficient cores? Just a wild guess on my part.
There are occasionally very short windows that let you go back if it's immediately after the update was released, if you're lucky.
But with very rare exceptions, the updates are permanent.
