iOS 9.3 beta 3 today?

[George Waseem]

Wh-what? You guys want beta 3 already?

I'm more than happy with beta 2. It's super smooth and stable for a beta, and eons better than iOS 9.2.1.

I could stay on this beta for a while longer. But yeah, we could see beta 3 next week, not this week.

80% of all threads I've read about beta 2 say that it's worse than beta 1, it made my iPad's battery worse than ever & it shutdowns at 5% instead of 2% & also made my iPhone's animations stutter everywhere & battery that needs to be charged 2 times a day. The only noticeable bug that I can say was partially fixed is the poor scrolling although it still stutters in some apps. Not because it's super amazing on your phone doesn't mean that it runs beautifully on other devices.

Obviously very different experience with different devices....I am sure Apple is trying to give all devices the best possible IOS...very difficult job, I would say....my iphone 6 is btw smooth as butter

9.3.3, we are currently on 9.3.2

No, you are on 9.3 Beta 2, not 9.3.2

 

[vertsix]

Your obviously NOT on Tmobile

I am, actually.

 

[Zaft]

No, you are on 9.3 Beta 2, not 9.3.2

Yes same difference.

 

[gwhizkids]

Yes same difference.

You make statements like that and wonder why no one takes your complaints seriously?

 

[912181]

Yes same difference.

But, but.... Joking?

 

[C DM]

Yes same difference.

Except that it's not.

 

[ajiuo]

Yes same difference.

(9.3 Beta 2) is not the same as (9.3.2). It's actually the same as (9.3.0 Beta 2).. Apple just does not ever use (x.x.0) they just shorten it to (x.x). (9.3.1) "could"be the version after (9.3) and (9.3.2) "could" be the version after (9.3.1). I say "could" because (9.4) will likely be released before (9.3) ever makes it that far.

The version hierarchy kind of works like this... (x.y.z). x = a major version, y = a notable change, z = bug fixes. The beta version is completely independent of that... Beta indicates the test stage of a version prior to being released. First it goes through "Alpha" testing. For example right now there is probably an IOS 10 Alpha 1.. Or where ever they are at on that... Alpha testing is internal company testing and the public never sees it... Then they move to "Beta" testing... Apple has developer betas and public betas....

 

[Zaft]

Point is you get what I mean.

 

[C DM]

Point is you get what I mean.

And it's still not the same. You can also type in ALL CAPS or use some l33t txt spk to type that people will also probably get what you mean, but it doesn't mean that's the same thing as not doing it or that it's somehow useful.

Ok I was incorrect. Im gonna go crawl back in my hole.

The issue wasn't that you were wrong; it was your complete nonchalance at being wrong. If you want to be taken seriously on complaints you have about a particular build of software, take care to identify the software properly. Otherwise, you are just going to have the "ignore" button applied to you.

 

[intofx]

I am, actually.

Let me be more specific then. Your obviously not on Tmobile, roaming and trying to use cellular data. It's a fact that pb2 killed roaming cell data. So yes beta 3 would have been great today.

These boards have become jokes. All I see is arguing and people calling one another out. The mods need to step their game up here smh

Off topic but I doubt iOS 9 will see a 9.4. 9.3.1 for sure, maybe 9.3.2 but doubtful.

Going off last years timeline. 8.4 was released in April. 9.3 is said to be released this year in the "spring". Current rumours puts Apples March event on March 15. 9.3 will most likely be releasing pretty much same time to add support for the 5se and Air 3.

That leaves iOS 9.3 only a bit over a month "behind" in the timeline of where 8.4 was for release. That's not enough time to squeeze out a 9.4 and then a 9.4.1. It's really only enough time for them to do a 9.3.1 and maybe a 9.3.2

8.4.1 was in beta same time as 9.0 was. Same will probably happen again this year. The final version of iOS 9 will be in beta along side iOS 10 beta. They always leave an iOS version with a "z" update (as you labeled in the x, y, z above)

More off topic (and not arguing) I always thought of the (x, y, z) as x = version number, y = major update to that version (since these often offer something new or some changes) and finally z = minor update (nothing changes and just small bug fixes.)

yup.
meanwhile i posted an image of Illuminati as a joke (pretty good one I'd say...lol) about the new NightShift icon and THAT gets deleted...double standards!

Yes, PB2 did kill cellular data for some things and I am annoyed by that, but I am not going on an endless tirade complaining about it because...

It's a beta.

 

[asv56kx3088]

Definition of a "fact": A thing that is indisputably the case

YOUR OPINION IS that. Fact is verified by all, not subjective findings by only some.

The performance regression is measurable and can be tested, it involves no value judgements (if measured in terms of FPS), and hence it is a fact (or a positive statement).
What you are talking about is you think that it's me perceiving the micro-stutter, but NO, the 6 plus DOES have significant frame drops while pulling NC & CC, it is in no means a normative statement.
I hope this clears the confusion.

As I recall quite a few people had similar complaints (if not worse) when it came to the 6 Plus even with iOS 8.

HAHA I think you're the one on a endless tirade. You said beta 2 was great and you would stay on it. Then you questioned why people wanted beta 3. I answered why... because roaming doesn't work!

Being a BETA we found and BUG and would like a UPDATE to FIX it. Its not a complaint, this thread was about hoping that a update would come out today. Thats all. Your happy with beta 2, congrats, you may now leave this thread since it doesn't involve you.

Yeah I am, thanks. I got Wi-Fi most of the time so most apps that don't work on cellular work on Wi-Fi right now, so it's not the end of the world. I'm loving PB2 because of the speed, which outweighs this issue.

No, it really isn't.

They don't clamp down on trolling, but they sure as hell clamp down on people who defend themselves or speak up against trolls because the mods don't.
