Apple Releases iOS 8.0.1 With Fixes for HealthKit, Keyboards, and More [WARNING: iOS 8.0.1 Causing Issues With Cell Service, Touch ID]

[Redneck1089]

Download the IPSW file from Apple for 8.0.1 and just do an update by holding "Option" and clicking "Software Update" in iTunes.

You can do this even if you already installed the bad Over-The-Air-Update for your phone.

No need to do a complete restore.

Both involve a snatch...

You win the Internet.

DO NOT INSTALL! Immediately lost total cell service. This is a BAD UPDATE!

You're quick!

Just restored via iTunes and got my AT&T connection back since I had a backup from early this AM.

Haven't setup Touch ID yet, but seems the update may only be OTA?

8.0.1 (12A402) iPhone 6 Plus

What about the people who are not tech savy, this is ********!

 

[rwilliams]

If they've pulled the update, does anybody have a link to 8.0.1 on a mirror site?

 

[irnchriz]

It seems like it's broken for all who updated who have iphone 6. Check my post history if you want, I'm not here to drive up the post count. Just happy that I have my 5S as backup



Good to know, I'll be updating tonight when I get home

Worked fine on my iPhone 6 plus OTA. And my brother in laws.

Update is still live. Updating my 5s,5c, iPad Air, retina mini and mini.

Upon iTunes restore, I was told that there were "New carrier settings available for download" ... not sure if that was the underlying culprit ... maybe didn't come through via OTA?

 

[gramtrax]

Anyone remember the days when Apple stuff just WORKED?

 

[lwood1]

Just mentioned on the off chance the issue might be model specific. Tech support guy in me says document EVERYTHING!

Looks like its no more specific than 6/6+

Good luck. Update will be here soon...

 

[Nautilus007]

I don't want to restore I want to update

 

[photogpab]

ugh! updated before i saw this article.

Touch ID not working, no cell service... wtf! iPhone 6 AT&T here

I love Apple but how does an error like this get released?

 

[caligomez]

No trolling here.. My iPhone 6 lost cel. service, and I didn't even bother checking Touch ID.

Only logged on here after issue occurred. Wish I would've read this sooner.

Fix better come tonight..

 

[Tuppery Numnak]

It just works...rarely.

Can this done on a computer that your iPhone doesn't sync with?

 

[Nautilus007]

Update was pulled. Thanks goodness!

No it wasn't, i just hit download it still works

 

[iolinux333]

Isn't it obvious that this is intentional to distract us from BendGate?

I'm pretty sure you're joking but damn now I'm wondering if there could be something to it. Hmmm.

 

[mnsportsgeek]

Update was pulled. Thanks goodness!

Still there for me.

 

[MikesGravity]

Amen

anyone remember the days when apple stuff just worked?

 

[H2SO4]

iPhone 5 works fine, no issues!

Is this official or just your experience?

 

[iBlazed]

They didn't pull it, it's still coming up for me.
