iOS 5.0.2

[marcusj0015]

Has this update been officially canceled? I googled it, and in the last week there were a few news stories about it so... what's the state of this release?

 

[maflynn]

Since apple doesn't pre-announce such things, there is no public state. No one knows when apple will release the next update

 

[mattburley7]

i think the next update we see will be 5.1 not a 5.0.x version because we would have had something awhile ago.

Where is iOS 5.1???

We saw a few consecutive weeks of beta builds and now nothing for almost a month. Whats the deal Apple????

Two ways to look at this, and both are speculation....

- there have been few problems found, so no need for additional beta and release on horizon

- there were several problems, or a serious problem or two found and it is taking a while for the fix

Nobody knows, even the developers (beta testers) have been rather quiet.

3rd possibility.

5.1 is ready. We are waiting on a Keynote in the next few weeks to show off the new iPad then 5.1 will be released.

OR.

The iPad 3 will just show up on the Apple Store and 5.1 will be released.

Who knows. It could be lazy engineers at the Apple campus too.

I also think that 5.1 will be announced with iPad 3!

 

[mattburley7]

5.1 will be out whenever the iPad 3 is out (most likely march)

I dont think they will just release 5.1 on its own and have a 5.2 release for iPad 3 launch.

As for the 5.1 betas..we might not be hearing anything because its ready, there is a serious bug, or there are new features, etc still getting ready for the next beta..

Simple , New jailbreak , new "bug/security" fix

 

[pizzafootbal]

Hopefully all of these issues will be solved on iOS 5.1

I hope so too, honestly, with the release of iOS 5.0.x and Lion, it feels like Apple just dosen't give a **** anymore, which is kinda sad.

Almost 4 months now and the battery issue isn't fixed yet.

I must be the only person not having battery issues given the amount of complaining about it on the forums.

You are not alone !!

I get a full days use with battery juice left over in my iPhone 4.

I consider myself a medium usage user.

 

[RedReplicant]

Yeah, I haven't charged mine in 2 days and I will probably not charge it until I pass out tonight in like 12 hours.

 

[Arelunde]

I agree that battery life with iOS5 on my iPhone4 and iPad2 is outstanding! After a lot of use, I'm rarely less than 60 percent. Most evenings when I plug them both in for an overnight charge, they are in the 70-80 percent range. I doubt any other smartphone can match that!

 

[luvraj]

Battery life not so great

My battery life is not that great. Also sometimes when it loses network like in metro or for any other reason and after I get network back my phone is constantly accessing location service. Unless I turn in off which I believe is not supposed to work that way

 

[MaxMichael]

^ How on earth? My usage gets no-where near that. What do you do on your phone!?

This 45 minutes is only from texting, nothing else, in a strong 3G area with Push, Location, Vibrate and Siri's raise-to-speak function turned off.

Yeah, mine looks like yours.
I get a 20% drop every hour.
JUST SUCKS AND SUCKS!

It's so disappointing. I can't really see how Siri is affecting it either if it's not being used with the raise to speak function or having all the other settings turned off so I can't even work out what the issue is

LOL at your Carrier name!

It's too true.

ahh, positive thinking ... hope that this possibility come true anytime soon.

I don't suppose either one of you have bothered restoring your phones, have you?
