iOS 9.0 Beta 3 Bug Fixes and Changes

[FatPuppy]

I did a clean restore and it is absolutely horrible. There is a delay when pressing an icon, CC lags really bad, the music app is slow af and laggy, the the phone is really hot, almost uncomfortable to use.

Wasn't it only for iPads?? I never tried it on iPhone, only because I thought it was just for iPad..

The two finger text selection worked great for me on iPhone 6 on beta 2. Hope they bring it back.

Apple Music works fine for me. All the tabs load.

Anyone got a bug where Siri talks fine but the two beeps when you hold the home button and he starts listening doesnt play?

Beta 3 is horrible! Besides the bugs I had at first with the Camera and Menu Bar, I'm now having problems where the phone will think I'm in landscape, except my icons will stay in portrait mode. Everything else, my background, control center and notification center, and the app switcher all show up in landscape instead of portrait.

Try holding down both the Power and Home button for at least 20 seconds.

No luck, just showed Apple logo several times and then nothing, dead. Might have to put it to DFU mode and restore. =.="

Rebooted my 6 Plus multiple times, still no Camera icon on the lock screen and the menu bar bug has been driving my nuts since b2. I'm afraid of backing up and restoring via iTunes because of the b2 bug where it corrupted backups.

No idea what to do now.

You can rename your backup folder (append the date or something to it) then it should be safe and iTunes will create a new one you can fool with. You will still have that one available to restore from if need be and it will appear in iTunes along with the new one.

Even after Reset All Settings?

Tabs aren't one touch auto opening from Safari, neither are apps (YouTube). Holding gives me a prompt, which I can then choose 'open in tab', etc. Maybe force touch is enabled

Yeah I went ahead and created a new backup folder, but it was something with the backups b2 was actually making. They were incomplete from what I could tell and not usable by iTunes. Weirdly enough, my beta 1 and 8.4 beta backups all worked fine even after backing up on 9 B2.

Even after Reset All Settings?

Well, that fixed the menu bar and Camera icon, but the landscape mode keeps glitching on me. I'm gonna try another reboot and see if that fixes it.

The Apple Music page in the Music app is very buggy. I want to sign up for the individual plan but it seems like I'm clicking both when I tap it. Don't want to risk it

You can sign up in the newest iTunes as well.

My camera icon on the lockscreen is there. While they squished a bunch of bugs, like my "back to app" doesnt hang it goes right back instantly now, overall performance is crappy IMO. As noted the status bar comes in late going into apps and out to the homescreen, and everything just feels slower overall than Beta 2. Maybe the status bar makes is feel slower, but it just doesn't feel as smooth as Beta 2 was.

This beta is pretty bad. Worse than beta 2. My phone is hot, battery drain is bad. iCloud storage still isn't fixed and its laggy. Also, can anyone tell me how to get spotlight to show me my apps when I search for them? I start typing and it suggests webpages and apps in the app store, but the search won't show me my own apps!

 

[jt999]

Is anyone getting contacts to show up in Spotlight search?

Not showing up here.

No but they are showing up in 'Top Hits'.

Is anyone having trouble downloading iCloud playlists?

I have News from OTA update and an Italian Apple Store Account. iPhone 6+

Yeah not feeling this beta.

 

[jsamuels]

News only support USA and Australia for now.

Not so. Im in Italy with Italy Apple Store Account and News was included in OTA update..

Alright after settings everything back up after the Reset All Settings, everything seems much more stable. I mean, much, MUCH more stable. Working pretty good now.

It seems to have carried over from beta 2. Not working for me either.

Guys, didn't the screen used to rotate when you turned the iPhone 6 Plus upside down?

Is anyone getting contacts to show up in Spotlight search?

Working for me
