Apple Releases iOS 8.1.2 With Fix for Disappearing Ringtone Issue

[teslo]

Ios in its current state right now is much more stable and alot less buggy then Android Lollipop right now, so i dont know what your talking about and i dont think you do either

the vocal minority always assume their experience is the norm. every software/hardware update or release means that - to someone, somewhere - apple's failure to deliver 100% perfection to 100% of everyone (aka: themselves), means 'apple is dropping the ball and their standards are slipping.'

rinse and repeat.

Fix the ringtone problem and leave all of the other iOS8 problems in place.

Draw up a list for us, will ya?

I want better battery life! And to fix the screen locking issue.

And for the love of God why can't we download OTA updates over 4G/LTE yet if they are under 100MB???

I have a 30GB plan and can't use it all because of this.

One bug is pretty annoying. Try to open at photos app any album with swiping gesture on iPad.

 

[tazdevl]

Still doesn't fix multitasking gestures randomly stop working on iPad Air and Air 2.

Apple still sells ringtones? I guess they fixed this since it makes them money.

Hope it fixes all the annoying bugs with the 3rd party keyboards as well as the Spotlight issue where no keyboard is showing up.

But as I'm on 8.2, I wonder if these bug fixes were included in 8.2 beta or are coming in a future update.

This is the most annoying thing ever!

 

[unplugme71]

We're talking about an operating system, incrementing the minor version number to fix a purchased ringtone issue.

how else do you release an update?

x.x.x revision B? lol

Not even remotely funny. Bury that dead horse already

15 up-votes say otherwise.

Blame the carriers for that!

Knowing all to well, the trend of troubles associated with recent OTA apple updates...I'll stand by for a week or so

So in summary, iOS 8.2.1 is what we are really waiting for. Got it!

iOS 8.2 will introduce "major new features", but also a handful of new bugs.

iOS 8.2.1 will have those bugs cleaned up.

 

[Dezryth]

Damn, they just can't get iOS 8 right at all. Just imagine next year (software year) when iOS 9 comes out.

It's a bug fix patch. What are you complaing about?

 

[MaxPayne79]

Does this fix the fact my iPhone 6+ reboots every couple of minutes?

Hope it does.

 

[pnoyblazed]

first time my phone didn't prompt me that it will restart automatically, I had to manually install the update after it finished downloading.

 

[Ken Kaniff]

The only thing that matters is if this patches the jailbreak or not. Someone find out!!

 

[poe diddley]

Ugh. Ringitones. Can we get safari fixed? That's all I care about.

 

[iPro97]

Anybody know if it fixed the iPad Air 2 speaker popping noise?

 

[dannyyankou]

Might as well delete Asphalt 8 to clear space since it's crap on a 4 inch screen anyway.

----------

Anyone know if this fixes the double / echo e-mail notification sound?

This happened to me twice today. Hope it's fixed.

Broke the connection with my Garmin Vivosmart and didn't fix my calendar timezone issue. When will I learn. Thanks Apple

Has this fixed the safari problem where it always refreshes tabs or pressing back button on a website? I won't update until that's fixed.

That's a low memory error. The only thing to fix it is add more RAM or Apple modifies memory usage algorithms. That would be a major change and wouldn't be in iOS 8. Maybe 9 or later. This is just my opinion.

 

[dannyyankou]

Safari copy - paste bug FIXED

Can anyone else confirm this? The only other mention of it was in the 8.1.2 bug fixes thread, and it was posted by the same person.

 

[JetBlack7]

Well then what's the point of even having Macrumors at all if we're not going to believe anything on it?

Why are you here? To read things just so you can not believe them?

That's not what I meant to say. I just said to don't believe everything you hear/read because they could say they fixed the ringtone issue and added bug fixes so people thought they really did something else, so to justify this release since realeasing this update just for one fix would be ridiculous. Just that.

kind of like mp3s on iPods
