Apple Releases iOS 5 with Notification Center, iMessage, Twitter, and More

[quid squid]

working and away from the computer with my backup on it...i assume updating it from another computer will erase non-itunes music and stuff?

3 hours to go for 10.7.2 and Lion recovery.

I have the GM installed and this version seems to be the same build. But if you try to check for a software update from within iOS 5 (GM), it says the service is unavailable. Anyone else having this problem?

says for me

This version of the iPhone software (5.0) is the current version.

holy overwhelmed servers batman. just watched my lion 10.7.2 download time go from 14 minutes to 8 hours. 😱

6 minutes for 888MB of shtuff here.... let's see how long that stays true.

 

[kemo]

Is it the same build as the GM??

any1?

 

[bravo0306]

12 hours to download....looool!!!

What is the one for iphone 4,1?

I'd imagine 4S.

 

[singhjeet29]

Wow the backing up of my phone is taking considerably longer than the time it took to download the OS

 

[h1r0ll3r]

Well, I'm down to 2 hours for 10.7.2 and 18 minutes for iOS5 😱

 

[Goldfinger]

Haha, first 250MB went smooth. Now activity monitor is showing about 15-25KB/sec down 😀. This is going to take a while...

 

[JP3G]

What is the one for iphone 4,1?

4S I would guess.

How do I upgrade from beta 7? I know its not the current version but thats what iTunes keeps telling me?

 

[bushido]

now all i need is an iPad 2 jailbreak so i can update 😀

 

[funnoam]

The MD5 between the GM and this release WILL NOT be the same, because they do not include the update ramdisk in the GM (developers were forced to restore). So this release may be a little bigger in mb, it's the same.

ETA for osx is currently 9 hours on my 30/30 fiber connection. Guess is Apple is pulling some pretty hot traffic atm.

Bugger. That means that everyone who has installed the GM will have to re-install using the "official" iOS 5. Grrr!

any1?

Asked and answered in this thread a couple of times. Try reading through it before asking questions.

 

[Omniblast]

Congrats everyone, welcome aboard the iOS 5 train.

iMessages, faster browser 50k+ on browsermark , notification center, faster camera launch, etc. work very well on the GM build.

Can't wait for all my friends to have iMessages. No more text limit, plus delivery confirmations. 🙂

 

[Spete]

ah, downloading the update now. can't wait! I have a question though. I am currently running snow leopard, I am unable to update to lion because I have an older MacBook. Will I still be able to use iCloud on my iPhone 4 and iPad??

 

[22hand]

37 mins for mac osx
14 mins for iOS 5

 

[Diode]

What is the one for iphone 4,1?

I'm guessing the 4s.

If the build is really 9A334v then it is slightly different from GM as GM is just 9A334.

 

[gibbz]

any1?

Yes, same build number, (9A334)

 

[kemo]
