Plants and Zombies still instantly crashes when launched.

PopCap put the following code in:

If ios.ver > 6
then
[Stop]
else
Play

I have confirmed now, tested by myself, that if you perform a clean install* of Beta 4 the overall experience is better and a lot of bugs are fixed:

* Plants vs Zombies 2 works like a charm!! But PvsZ 1 still crashes tough =(
* Battery does not drains like crazy anymore
* iPhone heating problems dissapear.
* Faster UI performance.
* Less "lagging" issues during gameplay on some apps.

* Clean Install --> Restoring iPhone as New Device with the Beta 4 .ipsw file without restoring from iCloud or iTunes Backup

Catch: You have to register your iPhone's ID for this cause restoring from iOS 7 .ipsw will check for UDID registration

Workaround: Clean restore with any iOS 6 ipsw file (shift + restore), then upgrade again to iOS 7 (shift + check updates)
 
For the heck of it, I fired up PvZ on my iPhone 5 with beta 5 and it worked!

There is an example of an app getting fixed and the developer not lifting a finger.

Now I am debating on whether I want iOS 5 on my iPad 3.

Installed beta 5 on my iPad3.

Pvz 1 & 2 works.
Treasures of Montezuma 3 works.
Tapatalk 2 seems to work.

So far, so good.

I'm having trouble with the Kindle app. I can see my books in the cloud but I get a download error every time I try to download a book longer than a couple of pages. Doesn't matter whether I am on Wifi or LTE.

Can't download my books.

iPad 3. Beta 5. Restored clean from DFU and then a backup to beta 4. OTA to beta 5.
