Apple Releases iOS 6.0.2 Software Update for iPhone 5 and iPad Mini, Fixes Wi-Fi Bug

2007 called...

... and it said "here, get your update before anyone else".

Thank you.

 

[cdcdoc]

Nope...just Iphone 5 and Ipad mini.

so this isn't for my 4S or iPad 4?

There is something awesome about deploying an OTA update to fix a wi-fi problem. Just sayin'.

Forstall's last hurrah!

 

[doctorossi]

Grrr.

I hope they can get the OTA working because the new iTunes does not play nice with my phone.

 

[Jason99kr]

Downloading right now, I think it's hotfix about iPhone 5 Wifi connection issue?

 

[Aluminum213]

hmmmm....can you fix a "wifi bug' while using the wifi to update the phone

That's what I'm wonderinh

 

[Snoosedaddy]

I hope it also fixes the "Unable to Check for Update" bug that I, and everyone else here, seems to be getting.

 

[lordofthereef]

Eh. Can't get it OTA. I'll wait until 6.1. Nothing has been amiss for me this far.

My iPhone 5 only shows (most of the time) one bar of Wi-Fi, although it works as though it has all bars...my wife's does not have that problem...OTA not showing up yet in DC...

Hoping it also fixes the problem of the iPhone 5 hanging in No Service mode. It's such a pain.

I cannot get OTA but sure enough iTunes offers it up. In the process of downloading the update right now. I have been having glitchy Wi-Fi so I hope this addresses that problem. I've already swapped a phone at the store because of it.

Time for some iPhone 5S rumors!

A couple of my friends who don't look at MacRumors and others tech blogs at all have told me that the 5S will be released in early spring.

I'm also not able to update OTA and I'm just gonna wait. I don't want to download over 900 MB for this minor update since I'm not affected by a wifi bug that I'm aware of.

I'm anxious for the purchases made on an iPhone/iPad to transfer back to iTunes.

Edit: Like others are reporting, OTA available when I tried at 11:02 Cupertino Time.

 

[treichert]

If you can't get it right now, just use iTunes. I'm updating through iTunes right now.

If you can't get it right now, simply try again later.

I'm not gonna plug in my iPhone and download hundreds of megabytes when I can simply wait half an hour.

the only issue i had with the current one, was when i was connected to 3gI sometimes would get a "no internet connection" issue...

 

[Jason99kr]

Seems like it's hot-fix on iPhone 5 wifi connectivity issue.. hmm

 

[Stuipdboy1000]

OTA download seems to be working (for me at least) now.

 

[L-U-R-C-H]

It works now!

 

[jimbo1mcm]

just got the OTA update on my IP 5. Installed okay. Took about 5 minutes.

 

[duneriderltr450]

They need to release an update to this update. Only then would I be able to update my devices with the update and update update.

 

[RowdyYates]

Restarted phone .... OTA update available.

 

[Jessica Lares]

My iPad Mini got this update. Nice. And yeah, it works on iTunes fine, no idea what's going on with the in-iOS update feature.

 

[PROBOUND]

What about the iPad 4!!? Same issueee!!

How come there is no update to the iPad 4??? Ever since i upgraded from the iPad 3 i've had serious Wifi issues identical to my iPhone 5's issues.

Also the iPad 4 suffers from barely responsive home button! Not sure if this is firmware related or not. The only way i've temporarily fixed it for now is by doing a Home Button Calibration found on Google search.
