iOS 8 Beta 4 Bug Fixes and Changes

For some reason I still don't see My Photo Stream in iOS 8. I want all my pictures from my iPad/Mac that were on Photo Stream to be accessible on my iPhone running beta 4. I have Photo Stream enable on my iPhone but iCloud Photo Library off. I had it on and nothing appeared so I turned it off. Help anyone? This new iCloud stuff confuses me.

EDIT: Fixed. I just disabled and ren-enabled Photo Stream.

ive had the same problem as you havent found anything to make it work again

Don't know if this will help you, but it worked for me:
I turned off Notes sync on my 5s, and unchecked Handoff on the 5s.
(Not sure if this had anything to do with it, but Apple made me change my Password, which I did after unchecking notes and handoff.)
I restarted my 5s. I put in my new password, and then re-enabled notes and handoff, and it now works seamlessly for me.

Lemme know if this helps you.
 
I found this bug:

Cannot make calls from contact or name pane in Messages app. When you press the phone button and select a call type (Phone call or FaceTime voice) or the FaceTime video call button the phone freezes and does not make the call.

I found that as well. The only way I could make calls was from within the Phone app itself.
 
Lock Screen and Music Crash

I noticed this morning that if I tap the camera icon on the lock screen while music is playing, it crashed the music app. I repeated it at least three times.
 
I'm gonna try Reset All Settings tonight when I have time to set everything back up.

Tone it down bro! So instead are you suggesting that people listen to your recommendations after running iOS 8 for a total of a couple of hours? Relax.
I can't chill out with people who reply like "omg leik speak 4 yourself lolz my beta runs fine" or when they have no clue what they're talking about
 
Found a run-around for QuickReply "123" and Emoji's!

Okay I'm sure most of you love the new QuickReply feature on the LockScreen and miss your Number ("123") keyboard + Emoji ( :) ) keyboard.
Here is my easy run around to hold you over till beta 5.

1.) Hit the "Shift" key (this will allow you to hit "Return") right away and then quickly hit "Return".

2.) That's it! Now you can backspace to your original spot and now you'll be able to access the Number Keyboard and the Emoji Keyboard! Keep on QuickReplying!

IOS 8 Beta 4 phone call bug

Not sure why, but if I receive a phone call from my Favorites list, when I swipe to answer the call, it doesn't answer and the phone won't stop vibrating. I have to shut down phone and power it back up each time. Anyone else having this beta issue?
 
i noticed yesterday while on the phone(speaker) i would be on a call and once i adjust it,it was fine for a sec, then seems like the volume is turned down.Once i just push the volume buttons either way, its back up! Never happened in Beta 3

Keyboard for wrong WiFi password

It seems as though when you go to enter a WiFi password and you get it wrong, yout don't get your keyboard back to try and re-enter the password unless you go out and go back in. Anyone else?

Thanks for the tip. It works flawlessly.
 
Quick Reply Bugs:

1.) I am having problems with Quick Reply (On the Lock Screen) turning my messages into "Text Messages" rather than "iMessages", even though iMessages are activated. Seems to happen off and on.

2.) The Auto Correct suggestions sometimes go above the top of the Lock Screen for Quick Reply text (words).

3.) In Quick Reply you cannot use the Magnifying Glass sometimes while you hover over text (words). The Magnifying Glass is just black.

Let me know if you have either #1,#2,#3 or all of the same problems.

Just watching a YouTube video in Safari and the guys says "so this is a whole series of..." Then siri pops up with "whole series" recognised.
Strange.
 
Found a couple bugs in the Maps if anyone can confirm my findings.

1. If you close out Maps after viewing current location, then re-enter Maps, no matter what it, it shows the details of your previous location details viewed

2. If you close out Maps then pick a nearby location on the Map, it may initially show an ETA of 5 times the usual drive for that location. For example, you pick a nearby marked location that is 18min away by car. Close maps completely then re-enter Maps. Tap the same location and it'll show 1hr 32min. Re-tap the location and it'll show the normal 18min drive time.
 
"Flashy" Glitching Lock Screen

Anyone have a weird/trippy/major-glitchy lockscreen sometimes.
What I mean by that is when you cancel out notifications (by swiping left and pressing "X") whether it's a message, reminder, email, etc. and then it flashes like crazy until you lock it/put it back to sleep.

Anyone else have this crazy "flash" glitch?
