Apple Seeds iPhone 2.1 Firmware with GPS Features

[whosyourtator]

Not in my Dev Center

I cannot see the download either. Great, not only has Apple not approved my contract yet, but now I'm second class and cannot get this download either. "That thing got my blood aboilin'!".

10 bucks per .1 of a version

I can't remember the reason why they charge for the updates. hanging my head in shame.

 

[spazzcat]

You guys are on drugs if you think there are going to be major features like this included in a .0.1 update.

This is a .1 update, but agree with you

 

[solipsism]

I got it off http://developer.apple.com/iphone. I been a paid member since May, so maybe they haven't turn it on for all paid developers yet?

Thanks, but it's not there for me. I'm a paid SDK member ($500/year), but I have not paid the $99 for the certificate for uploading to the App Store.

Screw copy and paste... Just give me stability!

Stability and better battery life!

 

[GNice]

New features are HIGHLY unlikely...I'll be happy with more stability and increased performance for starters.

 

[Hawkeye411]

I just want my smooth UI, and stability back.

Edit: Actually no, I want smooth UI, stability, fast browsing speed, removal of SMS typing lag, push email to work properly, Safari to quit crashing, better battery life, and copy/paste.

OK, thats it.

DITTO!!

Apple just fix the damn bugs!
I swear I have to restart my iPhone once a day because it slows to a crawl at times...

It's been SEEDED...it's not publicly available yet.

Oh maybe that is why, I think only iPhone developers get these Betas???

 

[wonderbread57]

Faster isn't the word for it wow...

it is a .1 release by the looks of it -- not that I think we are going to get copy/paste.

 

[scottder]

I want stability and a calendar with more options, repeating alarms and ability to select a ringtone/sound for the alerts as well. Thanks

I'm fully paid up (ADC Select member, iPhone Dev Program) and I don't see anything on the main iPhone page except the usual links for SDK 9m2199a (final) and things like the Program Portal. It doesn't appear to be listed on connect.apple.com for me either; most recent thing to download there is a QT seed.

 

[spazzcat]

Pages seem to download instantly for me. But I could just have a good connection today

I think you are confused or confusing us. You are not running the 2.1 firmware are you? If not, then your fast downloads have nothing to do with 2.1 firmware story.

 

[aznelementmaste]

New iPhone Sdk?

New iPhone SDK?? I thought that the official SDK was published!!

I hope he's confusing us and is really running 2.1 cause I would LOVE Safari on the iPhone to load as fast as it does on the desktop... Its saddening when I have to wait for 30 seconds for something like NYT to load when it loads in 1.5 seconds on the desktop

 

[PurrBall]

I don't give a crap about new features, I just want them to make this thing stable. Mine's been rebooting itself multiple times a day with 2.0, not to mention that Safari is laggier that ****.

Can we get copy/paste please

I have been an iPhone user since the week after the launch of 1.0 and for the life of me can not figure out what the obsession is with the iPhone and copy/paste. Is there something I'm missing?

 

[angemon89]

Awesome! Hopefully its more stable. Copy & Paste would be good. Maybe some MMS if were lucky.

More stable is all I'm hoping for really.

 

[oticon6]

I definitely agree on the stability issues... there's much to be resolved.

Lag in SMS and contacts is painful, and things definitely break and require a restart every few days.

One thing I'd really like to see is internal apps being exempt from the one-app-at-a-time rule somehow. If I receive a message while playing a game, the game pauses and a dialog is displayed. That is good. If, however, I choose to reply to the message, the game exits and I lose my progress. This needs to change!

Oh, and the ability to SAVE IMAGES FROM SAFARI would be good!

 

[cloudnine]

Copy and paste?

BORING.

 

[pcmike]

Yes, yes you are. For instance, say someone sends you an eBay auction number via AIM or TXT or something and you just want to copy the long number into the search box on ebay.com. Oh..... too bad.. no copy and paste you're screwed. Now you have to either find a piece of paper and write it down or ask the person "nicely" if they could please send you a link to the auction via email so you can hopefully click on it.

[cloudnine]

I'm just hoping for...

1. No more lag (I've had periods up to 30+ seconds where the phone just becomes unresponsive)
2. Stability (I have absolutely no idea if it's the apps or if it's the 2.0 software, but applications crash ALL the time on me)

And that's about it. That would be a huge deal if they released the push functionality for applications that soon before September... it would almost make up for the MobileMe fiasco.

Almost.
