Apple Seeds First Beta of iOS 9.3.3 to Developers

salimar said:
I've noticed 3 fixes so far:

1. Time at top of screen now shows after unlocking phone.

2. Game Center now no longer shows listed as a game when viewing games

3. Safari now correctly deletes history when using "clear history and website data".

Except Safari cleared it on OS X too when doing it on iOS ಠ_ಠ. Not sure if intended but it never used it. It's a pain.

I'm guessing this is because a large number of devices are being dropped in iOS 10. They want to leave iPhone 4s, 5, 5c and iPad 2 and 3 and iPad mini 1 and 2 on iOS 9 in my opinion.

No way they're dropping iPad mini 2.
Like not a chance. It's got an A7 processor, so nope.

What's the issue there? Just quickly used TouchID to silence my alarm and unlock my phone at the same time.

I don't know specifically how to cause it, but ever since 9.0 there have been bugs with unlocking while an alarm is going off that make it stop responding to touch. I had it happen on 9.3.2.

But then if that was the only or the main thing that was being addressed then why release a beta before it is actually addressed?

You can delete it so that you wouldn't be prompted.

I don't see where to do that.
 
now i see it said:
If Tim or Craig or Phil actually knew that most educated ios users fear their updates (with good reason) and gain satisfaction from endlessly deleting the update from their device (only for it to be forced down the pipe to us as soon as we plug in......only for us to delete it once again)... If they only understood that we gain satisfaction in doing this, like swatting a mosquito over and over again that will never die till kingdom come...

If they only knew how poisoned they have infected their user base with Update Loathing....A loathing-base that increases with every iteration....

If I they only knew of the rot in the focsle that festers deeper with every update like a pestulent weeping sore....

If they only knew.

I'm getting the same error on my 6 plus also - maybe this is device-specific problem?

I also got the same error on OTA on my iPhone 6 Plus so decided to download the beta on my Mac and "Update".... BAD IDEA!! It crashed during the first 5% of the update and went into recovery mode. iTunes was trying to get me to restore so had to hard reset again and when it popped up on iTunes I closed the box that told me I had to restore. I then chose "Update" rather than "Restore", downloaded 9.3.2 and crossed my fingers. It worked, but I'm now staying clear!

This iPad Pro 9.7 owner is very happy with the 9.3.2 update that loaded without any problems.

That's going to be hard for Apple to fix then. If only *some* get the problem, they will likely have to swap out stricken units and do a post mortom to see what weird things have colluded to cause it. Hopefully it's only certain memory capacities, but if it's not. Hmm... I wouldn't want to be in Apple Engineering trying to find out, and predict which ones brick.

If you had checked you'd know that particular issue was relative to some iPad Pros not ALL iPad Pros. Like all bugs they don't affect every single user across the board. They're almost always symptomatic of lesser known issues particularly isolated to a few users, as is in that case. If it were as widespread as you'd make out to be, Apple would've seen it clearly and fixed it already. Clearly the problem isn't ubiquitous, the same with 99.9% of most bugs.

Given the amount of bugs we here at this end of the swamp have encountered, I can't wait to be one of the 'few' that will have an ancillary issue that only effects 'a few people'...

But Apple isn't as bad as Microsoft. I remember bugs that were fixed in one update being broken in another update. Apple has a high bar to reach... :rolleyes:o_O

But my comment was more about the rapid cycle of updates and their testing, and announcements. They *just* released this one, and already we are hearing rumours of the *next* update? It seems that Apple is on a treadmill for updates. I also, to save some 'Applespaining', that no product of perfect, and no update is either, but either I'm focused on the updates more, or there are a lot of them, and they seem to bring new bugs that are rather more serious for *some* people...

Carry on...:)

Same happened to my 6 plus. Deleted the developer profile and added the public beta profile and the same thing has happened.

Those phones also couldn't copy/paste or multitask. Those were the days. >.<

Copy and paste came out in iOS 3 and multitasking in iOS 4. And 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 and 6.0 were more stable on release day than iOS 7, 8, or 9 ever were even after their "bug fix" updates. So now it takes apple till a X.3 or release to get things as stable as previous versions were on release day.

Nice try though.

He has a point about how could iOS ship without cut and paste. Actually 9.0 was pretty good and these point releases are icing on the cake.

The point being the more features added and more devices supported the less likely "everything just works". You sound like a petulant child, honestly.


Anyway, my cable (came with phone, wasn't damaged) caught fire while charging yesterday. Phone was not damaged. Not it's not charging as fast and some cables won't even work (I started getting the incompatible accessory a couple weeks ago on and off which I attributed to lint).

I'm swapping the phone out tomorrow but could this be software?

Anyone know when the next beta may be out? Beta 1 is seriously draining my battery, I'm charging my iPhone 6 Plus three times a day, may need to downgrade and forget betas altogether (on public beta btw)

No one really knows. At this point (if there will be another one) it's likely sooner than later given that it's already been more than 2 weeks, but it's hard to say one way or another really.
