Pretty large for a delta update on 14 PM

 

[tosbsas]

Built is 20B5050f
12Pro 501 MB

 

[Banglazed]

IPSW is up

 

[SumYoungGai]

Can anyone check if the GPS bug is fixed and if camera rattling is fixed?

Pretty large for a delta update on 14 PM

Yeah, 5gb or so on the 14 Pro.

 

[GBstoic]

Only a small download for iPadOS. Apple are labelling it Beta 9.

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

Thank you @Banglazed On a roll!

 

[Diamond Dog]

Can anyone check if the GPS bug is fixed and if camera rattling is fixed?

I am sure several people, myself included, are clamoring to update just to find that out! I don’t use social media (so camera is fine) but my GPS has been impacted, so I’ll be sure to report back post install.

Yes, it was very quick on my ipad, barely had time to go to the bathroom.

 

[OhMyMy]

Yes, it was very quick on my ipad, barely had time to go to the bathroom.

As you should before you update any Apple device.

 

[Mountaindla]

As you should before you update any Apple device.

It's just sound upgrade practice.

 

[Spocky]

As you should before you update any Apple device.

................and after.

 

[dannyyankou]

Picture in Picture bug is still there

 

[TL24]

Can anyone check if the GPS bug is fixed and if camera rattling is fixed?

I hope the GPS issue is fixed for my 14 Pro, never had the camera rattling so can't say much about that.

I'll report back once I'm able to test out the GPS after it's installed.

 

[dk001]

Doing 13 ProMax OTA and iPad Pro 11 OTA.
Just did an ipsw on each ....

 

[lindros2]

#1 or #2?

 

[michaelscott91]

Finally able to see the charging status % on the Lock Screen like it was prior in iOS 15😁

 

[Simacca]

New battery % icon. Much better now.

 

[papbot]

#1 or #2?

Only time for 1. “Install” came up before the zipper!

 

[dbrose]

I would assume the issues found since the iPhone 14 released won’t be fixed in this beta. Would imagine next beta. Thoughts?

 

[dannyyankou]

The battery indicator icon now drains as the number goes down

 

[OhMyMy]

App Library misalignment issue fixed.

Mixed feelings on the new battery icon.

 

[TitsLegendary]

New battery % icon. Much better now.

Wow this is sweet. Haha small but huge topic but it’s cool to see that they keep an eye on that and further improve it.
I like it!
