iOS 6 Beta 3: New Features & Improvements Thread
- Thread starter gmanist1000

To answer my own question and that of others, my iPad randomly decided to ask me if I'd like to use my number for iMessage, so basically I think it is just a matter of waiting 
3D is definitely expanding to cover the outer areas of cities and nothing is left flat.
Cant wait for maps to be improved more on ios beta 4 whenever it comes out.
Quick question those pics, well the ones with the houses, is that in the USA ? specifically illinois - chicago ? that looks similar to my friends alley lol i recognize it from somewhere
How random lol I stared at it for a while and i was like wow i recognize that place i used to live there its on the 4900 South Wolcott block
thanks
Songs not in alphabetical order
Since iOs 6 beta 1 artists, songs, albums, almost everything but my playlists aren't displayed in alphabetical order (In music.app). See I have N, then O and then N again. Haven't found threads about this yet, anyone have this problem too? Anyone fixed it?

there seems to be a bug with passbook even though it has yet to be turned on. When you open passbook it turns up ur brightness setting even if u dont have auto brightness on or anything
can anyone confirm?

On Maps, did the City or Town name change when you zoomed before? From black with a dot to a larger grey text.
Dunno if you guys have noticed, but the mail app's "swoosh" sound for sending mail is played earlier than last time. This is not something new in Beta 3 but rather has been like this since Beta 1. Just wondering if you guy have noticed it. Last time in iOS5 or earlier the "swoosh" sound comes after the progress bar is completed (meaning mail has been sent out). But now in iOS6 Beta 1,2,3 the "swoosh" sound occurs the moment you tap "Send". So the "swoosh" sound can no longer be an indication that your mail has really been sent out. Irritating.
Gosh, i hate this. Even Beta 2 behavior was stupid because every time I wrote an umlaut, I needed to swipe up. Now it's just back to iOS 5 behavior and that is even worse.
Does anyone tried yet to downgrade?
For those who have problems with iMessage:
I solved changing my apple's ID password (I had a very old one with no numbers nor caps) with a more secure one with new apple's requirements.. now everything's fine.. all is synced..

That's intentional. It's so that scanners can more easily read the codes. It was mentioned in a WWDC session.
Pish.
I've restored to and upgraded to iOS 6 betas 1, 2, and 3 and to get back to 5.1.1 you enter DFU mode and click restore on iTunes.
Quit scaremongering.
Read it yourself here, I just posted what I read, am not sure of the thing

I had the same problem where my iMessage was resetting every 10 min. Since I have changed my password it seems to be quite stable. Fingers crossed. Thanks for the bit humar
It's pish.
iOS 5 betas had the same notes, but you could downgrade via DFU mode. You CANNOT restore on its own, you need to be in DFU mode.
