Apple Releases iOS 4.3.2 (iOS 4.2.7 for Verizon iPhone)

I have a first gen iPad running 4.3.1, but although iTunes says a newer version is available, after it downloads it, extracts it, verifies my device and backs it up, it then says "this device isn't eligible for the requested build".

Does that mean the first gen iPad is now officially "legacy" and maxes out at 4.3.1? Or should I try a total restore/reset and update?
 
on my first gen ipad I had problems installing and had to do a restore, but after restore its working just fine.
 
I feel bad for all of you GSM iPhone users. I really do.

Meanwhile I'm enjoying a flawless iPhone experience on my CDMA iPhone 4. ;)

I upgraded to 4.2.7 four hours ago and my battery has gone down from 52% to 48% (with moderate usage). So.. yeah. Pretty much unchanged at this point. :D
 
I love my AT&T iPhone 4 and 3GS. On the iPhone 4, upgrading to 4.3.1 was flawless with no problems. The 3GS started having battery drain. Within 6 hours, it would be at 60% with just a bit of usage. I would usually be at 60% after 24 hours. I downgraded to 4.1 where I was before. Nothing on 4.3.1 was worth upgrading to. I don't have a supported printer for air printing and for airshare, the only thing I can share back and forth to is my MBP.

Any battery problems on this latest update?

I have had a flawless experience with AT&T over the past few years and will remain with the next iPhone.
 
VZ iPhone 4: Battery usage seemed higher after the update (10% overnight with no usage). I did a restore and it seems back to normal (1-2% overnight).

No issues with any of those updates on AT&T.

Actually the reason for the battery drain is Apple updated the network baseband vocoder to the latest support UMTS/HSPA+ and better cell hand-offs in order to reduce dropped calls to an absolute minimum on GSM and similar on Verizon...

You get a trade off, worse battery life (some of it has to do with the software though, drain the BATTERY ENTIRELY, and recharge it should get to 80%-90% now... ALSO DO A SETTINGS RESET BECAUSE your phone is running on OLD settings PREVIOUS to 4.3.2) but improved performance in everything else or crappy voice calls because your iPhone can't use the latest network capacity enhancements AT&T/*insert GSM carrier here*/Apple has made or Verizon/*insert CDMA carrier here*/Apple has made.

Personally I like PERFECT VOICE QUALITY on GSM/CDMA.

When I'm @ work I charge on the computer/USB port anyways... Or in the car...

3rd party apps crash, all of the them :mad: The standard Apple apps still work.

Terrible update. :mad:

Some apps, like Wikipedia, crash immediately after you try launching them. Not all 3rd party apps crash, but many do. Do NOT install this update! :mad:

Just what will I have to reset if I do an 'all settings reset'?

Thanks

Is the reset you're referring to is in Settings - General -Reset - Reset all settings? Will it erase the sms/messages or email accounts setting?

Thx
 
So how many people can't update their iPad 1s? My wife's 16GB wifi model updated with no problem. My 64GB wifi model still says "device incompatible with this build". No amount of reseting or restoring will change that.

All of the preferences you have set on the iPhone will be set back to factory default, but your data and media will still remain on the device.
 
4.3.2 for ATT/Europe iPhone, 4.2.7 for Verizon iPhone...........funny how Apple says Android is fragmented, but has slight fragmentation themselves. I know its an old argument, but its true. Apple need to bring all updates to the same version number with the same feature set. I mean, when the heck is the Verizon iPhone going to get 4.3 already? Also, 2.3.3 Gingerbread for Android is about 80mb ;) .
