iOS 5 - All the little things

[diamond.g]

Is Local Weather working for anyone?

I dont know if this has been mentioned but when you press the home button three times for multitasking and swipe to the right twice you get a volume option.

That was there in iOS 4, you're a year behind lol

Yup, working just fine for me.

Not sure if it's been mentioned, at least I couldn't find it on this thread. You can email multiple photos in one message now. Select the photos you want, tap share, and then email.

Also, the "No SIM Card Installed" popup follows the new notification system on the lockscreen (I suppose that was expected)

Kind of pointless but I wanted to contribute!

i like how those bubbles look.. blue is getting out dated. give us some black menu's now!

Is it just me or are the menu items a bit receded now?

EDIT: Here's an example.

Looks the same, iOS 4...

Well this is what happens when I type in <3 and that little arrow thing also changes. Even when I delete the Emoji keyboard it's still there. It also seems to only work in the Facebook app. Like I said before, I guess it's just a little glitch.

The arrow is just a FB icon for when someone posts on someone else's wall.

Here's a side-by-side.
My eyes might be playing tricks on me or I might be going be crazy, but I see the change.

Sorry if this was mentioned before, but I guess they dropped the camera button on the lock screen in Beta 2. Hopefully they bring it back. I actually found it useful.

UPDATE: My bad. It wasn't working for me earlier. When others were reporting their's worked, I restarted and it works fine now. Not sure if it was an iOS bug or an issue with my home button.

I didn't realize it but the double click home button wasn't bringing up anything (Music controls & camera button).

Eh.. no they didn't.

Are you DOUBLE clicking the home button?

It's still there for me.

My camera button still works on iOS 5 beta 2. I would post a screen shot but I'm on my iPhone currently.

well your side by side is lined up wrong, so that could be why

You press the home button twice.
Three-presses triggers your Accessibility options.

it does seem to have possibly a small drop shadow in iOS 5

Is it me or does battery life in beta 2 still suck?

I'm sure YMMV but beta-1 sucked on my 3GS.
On beta-2 it seems pretty much back to normal.

I was trying to line up the menus.

Well you have one from a 3GS and one from an iPhone 4 so can't really tell from them 2 pics but taking that into account id say minimal difference

I love how when you open a link in the background that bit of text shoots to the bottom of the screen.

I don't know if this was already posted, but now, when you turn on/off Airplane Mode, the little orange icon "flys" into and out of place. Nice touch.

That's not new. It's been there since at least iOS 3 I believe.

I believe that effect has existed before iOS 4.

I found one! I'm pretty proud of myself here. But this is a very, very little thing. When you're listening to music and you turn the device off - as in, all the way off with the slide to power off switch - instead of abruptly cutting off, the music you were listening too fades out - which sounds nicer. XD

Not sure if it was already discovered but in the Weather app, when you old on a day of the week and slide it to the bottom, you get weather hour by hour!
