Apple Releases iOS 17.2.1 With Bug Fixes

[Tbar71]

iPad Pro not available yet.

In such a case I really don’t understand why they didn’t delay the 17.2 update simply by one week because regarding to the forum and bug reports there were some noticeable bugs remaining.

Instead of my custom wallpaper, my home screen is now just showing my lock screen solar-system diagram as the background.

[ETA: Re-editing my Home Screen wallpaper in Settings fixed it.]

Yup, same thing happened to me. I was able to fix it by switching to another wallpaper and back, but the problem comes back after a reboot.

Bug fixes and bug introductions I guess.

sell the watches again...

Really hope this fixes WiFi issues that were introduced in 17.2 with iPhone 13 Pro.

No iPad update to 17.2.1?

Yeah, I am not seeing an update for iPadOS 17.2 to 17.2.1, either. Only iPhones are showing an update available here.

I'm new to the betas. Does iOS 17.3 beta presumably already contain these fixes? Or does one have to downgrade to get them? Assuming you can downgrade?

Hopefully they fixed the bad battery life on 15 Pro Max. My 13 Pro Max did a better job by far.

Why do these updates show up on my phone immediately when announced on MacRumors but take quite a while to show up in the Finder, when my phone is connected to my Mac?

I am old school. I prefer updating my devices in the Finder, rather than over the air.

Came the x.x.1 updates ever on finder/itunes? Not only OTA?

Is anyone else having this problem?

Next backup size still isnt showing up in icloud. It just says loading. Other ppl had this problem on their macs, but this is on my phone. My new phone that I just bought in october to be exact. I thik it mightve fixed the glitch where it didnt show the right app size for messages app under icloud storage. I think thats what mightve been causing the icloud backup to increase instead of decrease so much. Even when I had 0 texts and manually deleted them. I also have the messages in icloud turned off. I have 25 contacts 1 photo 0 texts so I couldnt figure out why my backup storage was increasing instead of decreasing when I didnt have much on my phone. I noticed it took a week from Monday to last night to recalloberate itself.

I leave everything to auto update. Set it and forget it.

Does that honestly work?

Someone please update this and check if the Apple Watch sensor still works and that they didn’t disable it in this update

IF a watchos update would disable SpO2 and not mention it - Apple would get sued

Why?!? It is the same for me as well.

 

[DavidLeblond]

I have a different wallpaper for my home screen than on my lock screen. After this update, my home screen wallpaper was reset to be the same as the lock screen one. I was able to resolve it by switching to another saved wallpaper and back, but that was still really odd. Has anyone else had this happen?

That broke for 17.2 for me. I was hoping this release would fix it. I fixed the wallpaper once and then it broke again.

Someone test the macOS syncing 😂 please

Testing now on iOS 17.2.1.

Been syncing for 5 minutes already. Still stuck on Step 2 Preparing to sync.

I'll give it another 5 minutes and then declare iOS 17.2.1 did not fix the syncing issue and nuke the MDCrashReportTool with

pkill -9 "MDCrashReportTool"

in Terminal to force sync to resume assuming that workaround will still work.

 

[Jason_9]

Mine updated normally.

 

[Permanent Sigh]

"update provides important bug fixes" - typical apple as-clear-as-mud explanation.

WHAT bug fixes?

“More ways to block services trying to get into iMessage” 😉

 

[Apple_Robert]

I am kind of surprised there is no watch update as well.

I am getting spoiled with these quick install updates. 😁

 

[contacos]

Is this another Pegasus bug fix? Why can’t they push them the quick fix kind of way (forgot the name)

Yep. iOS 17.2.1 did NOT fix the syncing issue

But this still works to resume syncing:

pkill -9 "MDCrashReportTool"

in Terminal.
