Never fails! Lol, each update someone actually says "Safari feels snappier".
In all seriousness I did notice in the past 3 updates, on my iPhone 5, that if I went to Settings, went out of it, and went back into it..... had more to do but forgot or whatever the reason, there would be a couple of seconds where the software would become unresponsive. Other apps, though not all, were like this as well. So far I haven't noticed it after the update.
This can be turned off by hitting the 'i' in the bottom right corner of a Passbook & adjust the settings.
It's because they want to keep iOS jailbroken. Same here. I'm not installing this. Besides, I don't use a passcode, and I don't live in Japan. I guess I'll miss out on Safari being faster though :/

It kills the jailbreak and doesn't improve anything significant. Why would anyone who is jailbroken install this?
Not necessarily negative, per say. Just saying "no thanks" to an update that really isn't necessary for them. Or at least not worth losing their JB for. And even if they were meant as negative, that's what these forums are for .Voicing are own, individual opinions. Which sometimes, ironically, might be negative.
What i find funny is people who get personally offended when others post anything negative about Apple. It's like someone just insulted your wife or girlfriend. I love Apple products just as much as most people in here. But I couldn't care less if others "think differently". (pun intended)
This update put my iphone into recovery - even it was not a jailbroken.... now my iTunes does not want to restore it.... raging.
I noticed something different after updating to the new software. I hit the power button to turn my phone on ( it had been sitting idle for about 10 mins) and I immediately noticed that the screen came on with a different effect. Sorta like a dimming effect but in reverse. Starting dim then getting bright. Happens so fast you have to watch to see it.
Anyone else notice this?

It's the Apple worshipping cult thing.
They think Apple can do no wrong, so there must be something wrong with us for wanting to jailbreak our devices to do things Apple does not allow.
Personally I think it's an immature, stupid attitude, but then this is the Internet. When has there ever been a lack of immaturity and stupidity online?
If the hardware and software can support it, then whats the problem?
So many talented devs out there creating so many cool and useful tweaks
With the Jailbreak, the iPhone is waaaaay better then anything out there.
Could someone tell me what's been "improved" in Japan's Maps?
Yeah, Tokyo and Kyoto are now in the right places!
Because you're welfare loafers, illegal immigrants, socialists, Harry-Potter-devil-worshippers, and fraudulent voters; and you devalue our marriages?
Guess I'm screwed. iPhone was plugged in and gave me the popup about updating a few minutes ago. I clicked canceled since I never update and a minute later, my phone turned back on and is now stuck on recovery and I can't even exit it with TinyUmbrella. Stuck on a loop. Guess I'll loose my JB now and be forced to update now
I don't even jailbreak my phone, just my iPad.
I depend on my phone daily, it is a critical device to me. So I'd rather not threaten its stability by jailbreaking. The iPad, if it dies during a trip, no big deal. I can DFU when I get home. So it gets jailbroken.
I hear that a lot: "my phone must be stable, I rely on it." I definitely understand this concern but
My phone is rock solid stable, and it's jailbroken with 49 tweaks. And it's not like I want to jeopardize it being a stability mess either, the iPhone in my pocket is my only phone.
Plus, if it were unstable, why not just uninstall the tweaks that are the culprits or if you can't narrow it down, restore and no harm at all?
Still, if you have no need or desire for additional features, then fair enough.

Oh sweet. I was almost worried that someone would use the pass code bug and steal all of my contacts and prank them so I switched over to the Galaxy S3. Atleast now they can't do the passcode bug.
