How do I get it to install the file? It just says your phone is up to date(8.0.1)
For some reason I can just remember watching WWDC 2014 and keep hearing "It's really great" over and over again. I'm not experiencing really great.
It probably won't install anyway as it won't pass the "verification".
Just leave it, and wait for the revised 8.0.1 (or 8.0.2)
If his out in the middle of nowhere with no computer around ,why would you update the software to your only communication device ?
Whoa, weird. I was actually in the process of updating it when I saw this post. Then my phone finished the download and it "failed to verify" and stopped. I guess it got pulled AS I was updating. Phew.

It's weird that this happened because other than Skype on my computer, my iPhone is my only way of making calls, and I was thinking about a situation like this the other day when updating to iOS 8.
While it was updating, I thought to myself: what if I had to call 911 (I have an anxiety disorder)? You can call 911 with Skype I think, but I think you're not supposed to as they can't trace your call.
Maybe I'm unusual in that this is where my mind goes, but an update that renders your phone unable to make calls seems dangerous to me.

I did the same as you, but both my 6 and 6+ lost cell connection and TouchID....
I'm as staunch an Apple advocate as anyone here, and while I think those who are talking about this being "another" Apple problem, I'm pretty irritated they would let something this big and bad get through.
Apple has never had any problems ignoring the idiotic masses and taking their time to make sure things work properly. I hope this isn't a new trend for them.....
Wow. Looks like I wouldn't have been affected anyways, but I'm kinda glad I just now heard about this update and effectively missed the entire thing.
I'll just be over here chillin'.

What I love most about MacRumors, is you can read this before updating...
But ... I'm an idiot so I updated the second I realized it was available :-D

itunes won't even restore even more, says iPhone is not eligible HA. Must be because the pulled 8.01. WOW
Select a backup one before that one, most likely made a 8.0.1 backup when you plugged in.
Should be pretty obvious how this bug escaped notice - it only affects you if you do the OTA update. No one would have tested the OTA update until it was live.
I think this will probably affect some testing procedures at Apple in the future.

Apple doesn't seem to be as thorough as they once were about getting things right before release... Is that why their OS is now free, do I smell a conspiracy?!
