iOS 10.2 Dev Beta 1 Changes, Bugs, and Fixes

[Poontaco]

Tried BT headphones today with the 10.2 update. Preivously would have skipping making the headphones unusable unless I turned off LTE. Now it seems to be working with LTE enabled.

Same for me. That was driving me crazy. I was getting worried that it was something I was going to have to live with.

Is anyone else getting a stutter when closing a folder? Clean install from new, and whenever I close a folder it stutters.

It appears apple watch notifications are a little wonky. My phone is pumping out the notification tone in some instances.

Wallpapers still DO dim on the home screen AND the lock screen.

However, it depends on the wallpaper. The OS decides whether or not to dim it.

If it's a VERY BRIGHT wallpaper, it won't dim, but it will use black app names instead.

However, if the wallpaper isn't quite as light but not enough contrast for the app names, it will dim. I've seen this on numerous wallpapers since updating to 10.2.

Try it for yourselves with this wallpaper.

my field test is working just fine with my intel iPhone 7 (A1778)

edit: Nevermind it just reverted back to the standard signal bars

iMessage read receipt bug is still on. Send someone iMessage and when she or he reads it, it marked as read. Then kill imessage app sliding it up and open messages again and that read status is changed to delivered. Happens everytime.

View attachment 669822 I've had a problem since updating to 10.2 where the + button in Music doesn't show up in playlists I've subscribed to in Apple Music. For example, in the "My New Music Mix," it doesn't display any way to add the songs, even if I 3D Touch on a song I don't have. More annoyingly, even if I were to search the song, I cannot add it into my Library as it thinks I have it already.

Just wondering if you have found any resolution on this. I'm thinking about giving the beta a try but this would be tough to deal with.

Bug: the "clear" button for recent Apple Music searches does nothing when tapped.

I did a new search and the button seems to be working fine. Strange.

Yeah, the rainbow flag is broken.

So are the last two columns of people before you get to the articles of clothing.

Last two columns work for me, but the rainbow flag does not.

Mine has randomly started to work as well.

You have Increase Contrast On.

Thanks for the response! I fixed it up

Just had a bug on my 7+ 256GB on 10.2 where I open the camera, and the picture goes from clear to blurry in a second. Can't refocus. Stays blurry, and won't take a pic. The screen even locks on the blurry image, so it shows the same image as I move the phone around. Every time I closed the camera app and reopened, it would do the same. A hard boot fixed it.

My videos widget shows "No Videos" on both my iPhone 7 and iPad Air. Does anyone else have this issue?

been an issue that was supposed to be fixed already.

my phone all of a sudden this morning is trying to re-index/sync all my 4000 pics with iCloud photos. they are all already there and synched in iCloud, but the photos app's data wheel is spinning like crazy and settings claims its uploading 3000+ photos. took 10 minutes for newly taken photos to show up on my MacBook where they usually show up instantly. anyone else having this issue?

also, the camera app keeps defaulting to live photo every time I open it, even though I have the preserve camera settings (including the live photo setting) turned off.

See the third settings description again in the preserve menu.
You need to have it turned ON so it doesn't revert back to always ON Live Photos. That setting is a bit backward if you ask me. But it does work properly as you want it to when checked.

Just notice something really strange with video recording (1080p at 60 fps), the sound skips when there is sudden loud noise, not sure if this has anything to do with 10.2, take a look at the 3 videos I shoot in the last 2 days, I am on iPhone 6s+ 10.2 beta 1

vid 1, all is normal until the engine comes on

vid 2, tried the same thing the next day, same problem, sound skips when the engine comes on

vid 3, normal regular Sam's club footage, all is normal

Weird - whenever I try to click the families in the last two columns of people, they end up showing up as faces instead of families.

file a bug report.

Apple will only fix it if they get multiple people complaining about it.

yea, I read that menu item 3 times trying to decrypt it. sounds awfully redundant and stupid, not to mention worded all messed up. what a stupid feature.

 

[atlchamp]

do you guys notice that when you head into a music album it takes a couple seconds to show "downloaded"? is this just my phone or a bug?

With it switched on it keeps (preserves) the setting. And it does state in the text below it " Preserve the Live Photo setting, rather than automatically reset to Live Photo turned on". Think of it as a "keep settings as they are" switch.

Has anyone else got this annoying problem of having to turn off Live Photos every time they wanna take a damn pic!!!

Have you tried playing some videos to populate it?

Same here, will likely be fixed in future releases. Sometimes it fails to show up at all!
