Scorbing Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 I hope it fixes the sms bugs where the whole darned thing freezes at times.. gah Well there doesn't seem to be much of anything fixed on this update. I guess we'll have to wait for iOS 6.1 to see any serious fixes, especially to Maps. f0rk_b0mb and Steven P. 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f0rk_b0mb Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Thank Gawd. iOS 6 made my iPod touch (4th gen) slow as hell and it always forgets wifi connections. Can we get a change log? Edit: ^ There's my change log. Thank you :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Guvnor Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Seems to work well on my iPhone 4S. Not sure if it made any impact on performance though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f0rk_b0mb Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 My iPod Touch (4th Gen) seems much more snappier and my wifi connections are finally being remembered. I also haven't experienced the App Sore or iTunes apps crashing on me since installing the update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMELTN Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I was having the issue with the app store and had the lines all on the keyboard at times on my 5. This fixed this for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevpan815 Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I've got something better than 6.0.1! I've got 6.1.0 Beta 1 (ADP Build)! P.S. ADP = Apple Developer Program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also haven't experienced the App Sore or iTunes apps crashing on me since installing the update. How does it feel compared to 5.1.1? Any idea how RAM usage compares? I'm reluctant to update as everything is fine here, but just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Growled Member Posted November 5, 2012 Member Share Posted November 5, 2012 This is good news. A friend of mine has been wanting an iPhone5 but he was waiting until some of the issues were fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denis W. Veteran Posted November 5, 2012 Veteran Share Posted November 5, 2012 Seems a tad smoother than 6.0. On iOS 6 the App Store app for the fourth-gen iPod touch was almost unusable. My phone's remaining on 5.1.1 until there's a newer jailbreak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f0rk_b0mb Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 How does it feel compared to 5.1.1? Any idea how RAM usage compares? I'm reluctant to update as everything is fine here, but just curious. It's actually quite comparable to iOS 5.1.1. It's a ton better than the vanilla iOS 6. I haven't had anything crash on me or slow down, and I'm sure iOS 6.1.0 (not to be confused with the current 6.0.1) will have a lot more fixes and improvements. If I were you, I wouldn't do the over the air update. It's one of my pet peeves---I hate updates, as it leaves a lot of leftover garbage behind with the possibility of wonky bugs, glitches and slowdowns. Download the .ipsw from a website for your particular device and do a clean install. See this for more info: http://osxdaily.com/2010/11/23/how-to-use-ipsw-files/ You can download the current iOS 6.0.1 firmware here at the bottom: http://osxdaily.com/2010/10/25/download-iphone-firmware-ipsw/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Download the .ipsw from a website for your particular device and do a clean install. Thanks for the tip. My 4G came with 5.0.1 installed and I updated it OTA each time. I might try doing a clean install of 5.1.1 and restore from backup just to see if there's any noticable difference. Then I'll be familiar with the process if I take the plunge and go to 6. f0rk_b0mb 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
protocol7 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Well, that didn't work. I made sure to download the correct version of the iPod software (build number also matched what is currently installed) but iTunes refuses to restore it. I tried the troubleshooting guide on Apple but can't see anything there I could try. here's a snippet from the updater log: amai: tss_submit_job: error from server=94 (This device isn't eligible for the requested build.)[/CODE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
