Ahh, okay. Hopefully this is rare.
I still have a 7 Plus but know that eventually some day I'll be forced to upgrade to a Face ID iPhone so stuff like this is scary. 🙂
Got a tip for us?

Anybody ever usually run these betas on their iPads? Just running the stock 12.1 on mine and seems fine so far but always run the beta on my phone
Have you tried to change the name of the data plan in “cellular data” in settings?
I have changed mine to “Personal” and that is what shows up in “about” where you get the _Label
Try naming it to something like “Brian” or something random, maybe there is something corrupt in the label?
Yes. I was up to iOS 12.1 on my iPad pro 9.7 (1st Gen). Just fine. Got off the beta crazy train. Rather my iPad than my iPhone X bc it's my daily driver.
How is this beta ? The official 12.1 memory management on my x so bad like it’s been like that since forever with with not many apps open
I don't seem to have that option. It's an uneditable string provided by T-Mobile.
IPP 12.9 G2 LTE - GP 3Beta
Having major issues with iMessage and non-iOS devices.
- iMessage will intermittently lock up
- Larger MMS messages may hang - especially if from Gallery and text added
- Selecting an MMS to delete may not result in an actual message deletion
- Changing the status of a message in the IPP (B3) will not properly update messages on linked devices (8+, rMB)
Apps
- Launching from Dock (initially) the app will pause or fail to launch
- Files - Recents may swap back and forth a couple of times before settling down into order
- Kindle - Tapping to move to next page infrequently stick mid page
- Deleting an email from stock email - account unreads don't match app tag
- Some games load / pause / finish loading (Angry Birds 2, Heckfire)
- Folders may pause on open
I initially did OTA but have done a reinstall after backup via iTunes.
Maybe after a couple of days it will settle down? 😕
Battery tbd ...
LTE signal and wifi speeds tbd ...
GPS accuracy tbd ...

This is the bug I was speaking of - dock apps won't respond to touch gestures until 1000ms have passed. This only happens if you fast navigate (i.e. swipe up to return to home) from a non-home screen.
I typically do because my phone is more critical than iPad. Seems that would be the case with most folks. So with that said, I typically install on iPad 1st then after several betas go by and no show stopping issues come up I will install on iPhone.
Took phone off charger went to unlock it, pad lock was unlocked, but phone froze. Couldn’t swipe up, nor hard reboot phone. Eventually phone rebooted on its own.
Anyone else notice this? I’m on iOS 12.1.1 beta 3.
Reported to Apple.

I don’t believe this is new at all, in fact my Xs displayed this the day after launch (iOS 12.0). Nothing was damaged in my case and in fact a hard reset fixed it and haven’t had any problems since.
Build size is literally the worst of the quality indicators for a build. Just cause an update has a tiny footprint doesn‘t mean it has less bugs or issues. Contrary to that, a big update could resolve a plethora of bugs and issues.
I also do t have that issue! Not sure why u have that I have iPhone XS Max 256 GB from T-Mobile been updating beta since day one I had the phone.
On another note my LTE is awesome 88 MB down 55 mb up compared to 25 mob down and 16 up before!! And my Face ID is crazy quick now also!
I don't think the implication there as much in regards to how many bugs it can have, but more about how it might relate to it being one of the later builds for a release as in a typical release progression later builds would usually have less changes so that they could be as stable as possible for the upcoming release. That said, it's still somewhat more of an anecdotal type of gauge.
I found the problem with this USER_LABEL_PRIMARY. I thought of possible reasons this would occur, and one that dawned on me was language selection. So... I checked my phone's language, and it was set to English. I changed it to English (US) and the label now correctly displays "PRIMARY."
This is definitely a bug. Also, folks on here really need to stop advocating 'clean installs.' Unless your phone becomes inoperable, that's not going to fix a bug or help diagnose it.
This is SUPER small, but the plus symbol on the zero key for the phone keypad is off center just a tiny bit. Unless I’m crazy.
This also fixed the Shortcuts App crashing on launch. Basically there's an unsupported language in the Language & Regions section of Settings. Once you change your language to English (US), English disappears. I will note this in the feedback app.
How is this beta for iPhone XS Max? It’s better than 12.1 ? With 12.1 I have lags , stuttering , animations are slow .. 🙁
In reading through the thread it seems that most users with the Max are seeing the most improvements. Things like faster FaceID, and connectivity and less dropped calls etc.
*Disclaimer I don't have a max and am not running the beta on my XR. Just reporting what I have read throughout this thread. And it seems max users have gotten the most love with this one 🙂
Which is odd, as, aside from the screen size, it has the same internals as the Xs. But it is pushing more pixels, as they say, so perhaps that's part of the equation.
