just hoping for some kind of fix for this data connectivity bug...all I want are bug fixes...I'd be okay if they skipped a major iOS release and new iPhone release this year to focus entirely on bug fixes and refinements.

Agree with wanting bug fixes but, to stop the apple money machine, your taking the second part toooooo faaaaar! :eek:
 
I just want better battery life. Something that can be easily helped by adjusting data management in the OS
 
The only thing for sure is that there's nothing sure about any of it (as usual). ;) :)

i'm talking about the rumors and i don't understand why are you always making negative comments to my posts.. MacRUMORS is about the news and RUMORS and i'm just talking about what i read on the internet..that's all..

btw.. c u next week :cool:
 
At this point, we are probably closer to 8.2 and the Apple Watch release than actually getting a minor update to 8.1.3.

Uhm, no.
At the earliest 8.2 will be released in mid March. 8.1.3 was seeded to Apple Store employees so it will be released soon (probably next week).
 
Can't come soon enough for me and my 6+.
My clean install of 8.1.2 has robbed me of approx 1.5 to 2 hours of usage time per charge cycle (compared to 8.1.1) and it is also buggy as hell. If Apple had shipped my phone with a functional non-buggy o/s I would never have 'upgraded' it in the first place. I'm sick of iOS upgrades! Just give me a decent, stable o/s and let me get on with things. iPhones take more 'maintenance' than my Windows laptop and Android tablet put together. This 'they just work' thing is a myth. Perhaps once upon a time they did, but not for some considerable time. iOS7 was a buggy, frustrating mess and so is iOS8. People rave about 7.1.2 but that was an unfinished, battery draining bugfest. Sure the best build of iOS7 we ever got but that's hardly anything to write home about.

I don't agree at all with your assessment of 7.1.2. It worked great, no real issues to speak of. 8.1.2 works great, no real issues to speak of. I'm purposefully saying "real" issues. Copy/paste, orientation, occasional loss of home wifi password are all present. None of which as show stoppers by any stretch of the imagination.

Spinning data wheels in Safari, landscape/portrait lock-ups, screen freezing, random unresponsive touchscreen, worse battery life than the previous update, app crashes (worst ever in any version of iOS for me)...all of these things make for a bad update in my book. Perhaps the 6+ is affected more than other iPhones?

I have none of what you describe, but I don't have a 6+ either.

I'm not making negative posts in relation to your posts, simoly posting realistic posts.

As for rumors, it's been made fairly clear in various similar posts you've made in the past of your that quite a few of them were simply your own personal guesses and wishful thinking. Even with rumors relating to release dates more than often being fairly baseless and inaccurate, pure random personal wishful thinking is even less so.
