Apple Releases Official iPhone 2.0 Firmware

[thrice]

Still no 2.0 for iPod Touch.... and now MobileMe is down....again.

 

[k2k koos]

Anyone in the UK getting 2.0 using check for update?

no luck here , seems like it's either pulled again, servers are overloaded, it hasn't properly propagated the web yet,all of the above, or or 1.1.4 really is the latest build

Downloading in Michigan!!

 

[GeekLawyer]

Can someone (who knows what they're talking about) tell us if this is what we early adopters should be downloading and installing?

Thanks.

OK. Update is presumably done, but iTunes has been stuck on "Accessing iTunes Store" for several minutes now

Good to know i aint alone am getting the same problem.

 

[fastbite]

I'm stuck in the Accessing iTunes Store stage after it downloaded... What's going on?

 

[Slap Dash]

2.0 Firmware has been put back on in Australia although itunes store is down

 

[grider]

Downloading downloading downloading! 8:58AM NY!

172MB downloaded out of 218MB 9:00AM EST looks pretty fast! Heart is racing faster!

Close to six million doing the same thing at the same time tents to lend itself to being SLOW..... chill people. Going to change the name of this forum to Mac suicide watch

OH MY GOD, YES!

I was thinking the same thing!

And people who have perfectly good working 2.0 software w/ the same build # will most likely in a paranoid frenzy BRICK their iPhone TODAY with the allegedly somehow different OFFICIAL VERSION!

LMAO

FINALLY got it in NY. been clicking update like all the rest of you. at 9am eastern time exactly it started

Update

I now havea 2.0 phone but it is now stuck n trying to access itunes store so I can edit settings and sync options crazy stuff here!

 

[jfw18338]

is anyone else having problems connecting to the iTunes store once everything has been loaded on your phone??? mine keeps timing out.

 

[mikes63737]

Mine's waiting for activation. Seems kind of dumb, since AT&T's gotta be pretty busy right now.

 

[alecapple]

**** damn, all my contacts are gone

 

[reposed]

Anyone unpack and check them yet?

 

[EdLee]

Can some one tell me how to download it without going through iTunes? It won't let me restore, says it can't find the requested resource.

Give it time. I updated yesterday, and was getting the same error up until a few minutes ago.

Clicked restore and it is now downloading 2.0 from the apple servers.

Now it doesn't mean it's actually going to update (I wonder what error it will throw out), but I am getting the software through iTunes...

The "1,1" designation is different.

but It may just be a file naming difference as build numbers tend to be very specific, and it seems unlikely that Apple would have two versions of 5A347.

But if one was 225MB and the other 218MB something doesn't add up. If yesterday's was labeled as 1,2 and today's is 1,1, perhaps the 1,2 is an upgrade for the 3G iPhone's as they may need some additional code to work with newer hardware like the GPS chip, etc?

Wow. the 2.0 update was released precisely at 8AM here in Chicago. I was clicking since 7:50AM and all I was getting was 1.1.4.

Taking less than 3 minutes to download 218.2 MB. I'm at work on a T3 line.

Update: Well it took about 18 minutes from download to install on a 4GB iPhone with only contacts and calendar (work machine). I sync music and photos on my home PC.

But now the phone is locked and asking to be connected to iTunes. I connect to iTunes and get the following message:

X We could not complete your iTunes Store request. The network connection timed out. Make sure your network setting are correct and your network connection is active, then try again.

:-(

Whoa! "Sync in Progress" "Waiting for activation" . . .

Mine started at 9am too. I went to the "check for updates" in iTunes... probably just coincidence...

 

[pol0001]

ARRGGGHHHH ..... Not again. iTunes now tell me that there is an update but the store is down!

 

[Edrubin]

Update

WOrking now! Installing apps as we speak!

 

[design-is]

Based in London - UK, just started download after clicking a huge amount of times. It lets you in the end lol

Ummm, I don't think 6 million people downloading now. Many have jobs, lives, or are getting booty.

 

[Krush8906]

Darn

It took awhile, but iTunes finally recognizes the update. But when I try to download the firmware, iTunes tells me that the store is temporarily unavailable.
