Apple Releases iOS 6.0.1 with Fixes for Keyboard Screen Glitch, Camera Flash Issues, and More

[TC03]

I thought skeuomorphism was going away?

Attention to details != skeuomomorphism.

----------

What is the "-107" next to AT&T for?

dB. It indicates signal strength. Jailbreak.

dB. It indicates signal strength. Jailbreak.

Ah forgot about that, I need to reinstate it. Anyone have the field code handy?

 

[TonyC28]

Anything for keyboard shortcuts and autocorrect problems?

WTF this 'Updater App' is now yet another un-deleteable app stuck on my device? Talk about clumsy

I dunno, mine went away automatically once the 6.01 update was finished.

Also, the little spinning gears animation has been around since OTA updates first arrived on iOS 5, for anyone who cares.

Yeesh, if my wifi would only stay connected long enough to download the update...I really, really hope this patch fixes the wifi issues so I can get my battery life back.

Does this fix the issue of going to 4g instead of LTE?

 

[hppy29]

Updated ok here in the uk. Got a naff text off O2 after saying I may need help with mms and wap settings please cal ..... But it all worked fine.

No they haven't. The gear image was static in iOS 5 and only started to move with the iOS 6 beta.

Using an over-the-air software update to allow over-the-air software updates. Software Update-ception!

Still no fix for the Timer in the Clock app - anything over 1 hour 1 minute you get "h:1:01 a", only when under an hour does it function as you'd expect. (iPhone 4S)

Updated on iPhone 4s and iPad 2 Wifi-3G

Anyone know if they notice any lag with tons on incoming iMessages? That was a huge bug as well.

For signal strength indicator:

Step 1: Open your "Phone App" from Springboard then dial this number *3001#12345#* and hit call.

Step 2: Now your iPhone will launch Field Test, you will notice that bars converted to numbers. This number is indication to your reception strength measured in decibels. The closer to "0" the "stronger" your signal.

Step 3: Now Press and hold Power button until the power slider appear, but DON'T POWER OFF.

Step 4: Press and hold Home button until Field Test program is terminated. You will find that signal strength numbers still there.
Now you are done!
You can toggle between signal bars and numbers by tap on signal strength at the top left of screen.

This didn't revert iTunes Match to how it was in iOS 5 to those asking. I figured it would be back by the time iOS 6.1 is released... or really hope so.

 

[iThinkIt]

Yes, I did. I thought it was entertaining.

Installing now, even though I don't believe any of the fixes will directly affect me.

same here

App Store app is still a bit glitchy. It said I had 2 updates, but I opened it and the updates pane was blank. I had to go to the home screen, kill it with multitasking and re-open it to see the updates.

Other than that, smooth update so far. Maybe I can use 5GHz wireless at home now without issues!

EDIT: the app store problem isn't new. It was in 6.0 too. Just pointing out that it's not been fixed.

Half way through installing on my iPhone 5 the phone locked up, displayed the connect to iTunes screen and gave me the (-1) error code. Have had to do a restore...

 

[mattburley7]

i wonder if iOS 6.0.1 does really ship with the iPad mini and iPad 4 because this happened to come out right before the launch tomorrow and it will save a lot of headaches of having to do a update already out of the box.

 

[HMI]

Does this update fix the "bad grammar" bug?
"- Fixes an issue that could cause [the] camera flash to not go off"

 

[iphoneclassic]

Updated on iPhone 4s and iPad 2 Wifi-3G

Can you post an update if you see any battery life improvement on 4s. Thanks.

I would get issues if I went to send a iMessage... then sent another one right after while the 1st one was still sending.. then it would just hang and say "Sending 1 of 2 messages"

And neither would send. Annoying

Will doing this cause any problems?

I don't think skeuomorphism means what you think it means.

Installed and already seeing an improvement

I just installed the 6.0.1 update on my iPhone 4 and immediately I noticed that my AT&T cell signal in my office jumped up to 3 bars. Until now, I've never seen it get past 1 bar of signal in my office. Nice!
