iOS 11 Beta 2: Changes, Bug Fixes, Enhancements, etc.

Yeah, I would also set Fetch to something other than 'automatic'. There could be a bug with the 'automatic' setting where it gets stuck pinging the server constantly, which may explain the high CPU usage with the mobileassetd and dataaccessd processes.

I changed it and charged the device up to 100%. Letting it run right now before I check battery usage. Thanks again for your help.

I caved in and installed iOS 11 public beta and, surprisingly, it's been pretty good so far. Only a minor wallpaper rotation bug but all my apps seem to be working fine and nothing strange.

Knock on wood!

Beta 2 still seems extremely laggy on my iPhone 6 Plus...

After 1 hour 48 minutes, no difference with putting fetch on manual. Guess I gotta suck it up till beta 3.

This is the way to report issues. Notice: He didn't generalize and say "ALL" iPhones 6+

That sucks. Hopefully we'll get DP3 on Wed. next week and it fixes it.

What is your ‘Fetch New Mail’ set to? Mine is on push but have you tried to set it to Manual or Fetch Hourly? I don’t get a lot of email on iCloud so not sure if this would help for the time being or not.

I don't really have important emails to use push or fetch settings so I keep mines on manual for all emails and turn off push. If I'm expecting an important email, I turn on push and set push for the email account I'm expecting to be deliver to. With manual, it will only fetch new emails whenever you launch the mail app. It also help with battery drain if your phone keeps refreshing.

I have following issue. After I installed the beta I can't finish the configuration, because the app dock is in front of the continue-Button. Is there a fix für this bug?

Did you try swiping up to bring up Control Center and then swiping it away?

Really strange move. Don’t like this at all. Taking away one of the most frequently used 3D Touch enabled features boggles my mind.

Yes, I tried it but you can't swipe up on this screen. Also on home screen you can't swipe up.

Not saying this is or is not the reason, but the article states a possible explanation:

It’s unclear why Apple would remove something that was so useful — perhaps it interferes with the gestures of the upcoming bezel-less iPhone 8 somehow, although it’s hard to envision how it might clash.

I ended up downloading the .ipsw for Beta2 update 1. Took about 2 hours on my awful connection. With nothing on the iPad, CPU usage is well over 65%. So it must just be the build.

Probably a bad bug on the iPad Air. Try signing out of iCloud completely and see if the CPU usage is still high?
On my iPad Pro 9.7, b2 is running great and battery life is also great. Better than my iPhone 7 so I think there are a lot of device specific bugs in these releases.

Yeah did that yesterday. My iPad just does not like this build at all.

Sucks. I can't think of anything else to do except wait for b3 comes out and hope it fixes it.

Yeah, at this point thats all I got. I tried the restore. Didn't work, so restored back to my backup I made this morning. So at least its not too much time wasted.

Ain’t that interesting why would they disable it on current devices where it’s not interfering with anything?!

 

[VSMacOne]

Yes, I tried it but you can't swipe up on this screen. Also on home screen you can't swipe up.

Did you try Restarting the iPad?

I ran into the same issue with my Air. A restart fixed it for me.

Activation Lock semi bypass bug

 

[tzxsean]

Can someone please help to confirm toggling off wi-fi icon in Control Centre merely disconnect your device from Wi-Fi network .. not turning Wi-Fi connection off?

Is this a bug or the intended feature?

 

[Strelok]

This is probably mentioned somewhere, but looks like the Bluetooth button is still useless in the control center. It turns on Bluetooth but can't turn it off.

 

[RoboCop001]

Does the Apple TV control centre remote work in beta 2? Or is it just usable with the Siri Apple TV? I have the last gen Apple TV.
