I’ve having unresponsiveness issues, especially with full screen video or bringing the notification shade down over an app.
We'll just have to see how it goes. And there do appear to be some new things already there beyond just fixes essentially.
But no significant new feature is added till now.
Normally when do the new features start- from which version?
It doesn't really need to be "significant" per se. Nevertheless, that's essentially where the "we'll see" part comes in.
Thanks, yes I hadn't realised you had to calibrate it (I knew you needed to for the compass). So I managed to get it to show 0 and 'green' on a flat surface, I then started up Asphalt 8 and the first game seemed OK at first. But progressively over that game and subsequent games it got worse again. By the third game I almost had to hold the phone 90 degrees from myself to play! So I then closed Asphalt and went back into the compass app, and swiped onto the spirit level, put on flat surface, and now it was way off again displaying -18, with circles wide apart. So clearly the issue is quite complicated, if someone had just played one game to test they might think there was no issue.
There is a workaround that worked in he past for same major builds. See below post.
To add, it used to also require you to change the build# in that same file. So changing both those to the previous versions would allow a restore.There is a workaround for beta users who only have a backup of 11.2 beta 1. I just did it and can confirm it works. Go to the backup location on your pc and locate the info.plist file. Open in notepad and search for "11.2". Simply change that to 11.1 and save the file and then reopen itunes (if you had it open while you made the change it will not work.. you have to close it and reopen). It is only located in the plist file one time. It will restore with no issues and restart.
You're welcome

Oh really? Do share what she told you. There is an entire thread discussing this issue. Perhaps it would help others there. I guess you can ignore my last reply to you then

What build number is iOS 11.1?

It doesn't matter. I did what she told me and it didn't work. Apparently, there is no current X beta out right now. Perhaps it'll come by next week.

If she told you that the iPhone X is part of Public Beta 11.2, yet there is no 11.2 Beta for the X, then it does matter with regards to what exactly she told you.
Yes. Same build, it’s actually iOS 11.2 beta 1
But at least it came out before my phone came today.
Looks like Apple has their "ish" together.
yea, you got lucky. but I didn't miss that much. but I hated to lose the stuff I from the past few days.
Not quite sure how I got lucky. I'm on my trusty iPhone 7+ with no issues at all!
I guess I'll update the build number in the original post if 11.2 beta 2 for the X is the same as 11.1 beta 1 for the rest of us.
yeah, that's true. not sure if it warrants a new beta 2 thread considering that this beta isn't available for the rest of us, so i just decided to tack it onto this thread
Your call. It will be tough to know what changes the new build has as its only on the X which will behave differently.
