On the bright side, you guys should get fantastic battery life now!

No Service from my AT&T iPhone 6

Lol. Except Searching is what causes huge battery drain.

Not if the phone is constantly searching for a network!

Same. In Apple store now. Do all their devices usually say no service? Because everything in the store is out. Reps have no clue either.

All display devices will no service because the phones don't have SIMs or valid SIMs.

I just turned my phone off. iMessage and everything else I can just do on computer so I'll just save battery.

I was the one who posted about a verizon phone with an ATT sim not working, but as part of my troubleshooting I put the verizon SIM that came with the phone back in and I still get no service (and the service is still active on the verizon account), so it looks like it may be more than just an ATT issue.

Seems to be an iPhone 6 issue. In the main 8.0.1 thread, folks from other countries are reporting the same issue.

No service here ether. Tried a reboot and getting the file to try and downgrade back to iOS 8.0

 

[ajm222]

Yeah, I just asked. He said they've seen some of this happening but they've apparently been able to restore service by restoring the phone? But he wasn't sure where the problem was originating. Looks like I've got a brick until I get home. Unless I can wipe from phone and restore from cloud.

 

[AustinIllini]

TouchID and phone.app apparently aren't working either per twitter.

So Apple just bricked 10 million new phones, this is going to end well.

This is definitely a big issue. If you haven't updated yet, don't!!!!

VZW iPhone 6 Plus Updated to 8.0.1 OTA
No Service
Touch ID does not work either

 

[BrettDS]

When did you guys update? If it was within the last few minutes I wonder if they've already pushed out a working version.

 

[AustinIllini]

Now they have ****ing done it. Furious doesn't even begin to describe how I feel right now.

 

[MSK5959]

Whew! Glad I didn't update, and saw this before 😱

It is for me! I haven't updated and my 128GB iPhone 6 has got to be worth $10,000 USD in China right now, might buy another BMW if this goes on for long.

Anyone with a T-Mobile phone have a problem?

 

[AustinIllini]

Some Apple devs are on the chopping block in Cupertino.

Same here what do we do? Can we go back to 8.0 somehow?

 

[AustinIllini]

In before "This would never happen if Steve Jobs were alive"

But in all seriousness, I'm not sure there's anything we can do. Go back to 8.0? Does that work?

 

[17MBPC2D]

This is almost comedy gold...."it just works"...ya...no.

****^ I don't find your sarcasm amusing

The end tester(s) @ Apple that gave the go ahead to release this update needs to be fired
Sad....Steve Job has passed away

Calling the loss of a wireless signal and touchID "brick" is a bit extreme, no?

Anyways working fine on my 5S here when I just updated in the last 10 minutes.
