iOS 6.1 Beta 5: New Features & Improvements (fixes) Thread

[Am3r1ca16]

Did you steal my screenshot? You should at least give me some credit for it...

Maybe i took the screenshot and i didn't bitch about it. I remember taking a screenshot too. hmm

 

[Mrg02d]

So lets find out what's new kids.

Yes, like toggles maybe? Apple SURELY must have a good reason to delay things with a beta 5...

 

[cuonglogan]

Please let us stay on topic. I'm still looking for the changelog and the expiration date

 

[GIZBUG]

No OTA update. Oh well time to wait for someone to leak BETA 5's IPSW to the internet.

inB4 you're not a developer.

let us know if u find it

 

[javaGuru]

I'm an iOS dev but I haven't installed any of the betas yet. How stable have they been? I'm contemplating whether I should install this one or not.

 

[TheBigKing]

lol macrumors are full of kids fighting for a screenshot get a life lil kid's

 

[AlphaDogg]

They changed the baseband

I'm still checking for new things.

 

[WeegieMac]

Don't expect any changes. I'd take the ML dock to make it feel like am actual update. It's a very poor update for a .1 release, it adds no functionality to the phone.

I wouldnt be surprised if that's the only thing they changed even with the 5 weeks they had.
At this rate, RIM will have a better mobile OS than apple at the end of this year.

Hope there's more... This beta took forever.

You see, the build works as a holdup. An excuse for Apple to investigate further - maybe - my theory is that with all the news that has been growing and firing up latley and not to mention the tweets, Apple feel threatened.

Now thats just my theory.

Are you referring to the jailbreak news?
If so, then apple needs to quit playing this childish game.

Other OSes are now making visible progress, but iOS is still sitting there with its cute grid of icons.

If I were Craig, I would hire all the talented developers in the jailbreak community to give iOS a boost.

The jailbreak community is so small compared to the user base of iOS, Apple has bigger fish to fry.

I agree. iOS is getting tired and old. Apple needs to step up.

 

[WeegieMac]

If this is truly the GM build then it will install and activate on devices without a Dev account.

So, come Guinea Pigs ... come!

And which fish are you referring to ?

 

[GeorgieAcevedo]

Lmao @ the screenshot argument. Holy **** #####

What's there to lose?

Well, it does install and activate, according to this:

What makes you say that?

I'll unregister my 3GS's UDID and test on that.

 

[techishi]

That was a poor example. More like, more important things to worry about.

 

[mattburley7]

the build # is way different then beta 4 so it seems like this is GM to me

It installs and activates without UDID and has the ID of a final build not a beta.
