[Official] iOS7 Discussions and Thoughts

[sanjeevrana]

is it worth to get beta loaded?

Well, nothing is broken and 99% of my apps work fine ... so its a matter of choice for you now

 

[maxheadroom]

thks for the advise
But to all this I like to have them turn on to enjoy the feature(maybe off for the AD tracking).

Something is wrong then ...

Disable Background Refresh totally
Disable Siri
Disable Ad Tracking
Give your WiFi static IP and try to keep it off in non-Wifi areas

I am getting pretty good if not better than iOS6 results

Agreed but this is to help you narrow down the issue ... and maybe do a full DFU restore then backup restore.

Thks. I did using DFU, reset my musiclibrary, even without restoring my backup. Test between 2 restored ip5 (2 restored, 1 didnt) and they all the same draining battery.
To thinking my ip5 might be the problem, I restore back 6.1.3 and I will still get 2.5 days of battery. Beta 5 I didn't have much of the prob.

Does this happen to any of you guys as well?

Sometimes, the tracks i'm playing in stock music app restarts from random parts of the song for no apparent reason..

Happens all the time to me, especially when I unlock my phone to check messages and stuffs. Running on ios 7 beta 6. Hope it will be resolved when the official ios 7 is out.

Nope ... should try to install the beta as new via DFU

Just updated to iOS 7 GM. Cannot sync with iTunes, need iTunes 11.1 .. Just a heads up for those who want to update, remember to download iTunes 11.1 Beta as well!

 

[jermx9]

iTunes Store on device also doesn't seem to be working. Opens and crashes almost immediately.

 

[Kyubi]

so release date is 18 september?

 

[Tokieda]

anyone tried ios 7 gm on iphone 4, does it lag?

 

[endokid]

looks like iOS7 is upgradable via wifi - but how does it retain the backup data?

 

[BattleSheep]

Why doesn't Apple talk much about
iOS7 during the iPhone event...

This is the first time
they just skip skip thru their OS

I'm facing the same situation as you right now. Do you think all will be fixed once they publicly release iTunes 11.1 and iOS7?

They've alr talked abt iOS 7 during the WWDC in June. They had a thorough intro. U can refer to their keynote on their website

Try closing all apps and a restart ... if still no go, try removing the Apple ID from iTunes Settings and then re-add it ... If still fail, then you need to reinstall as fresh OS

Yes

iOS7 is not upgradable from Beta to GM over the air on WiFi ... you need to have the full ipsw file for update/restore and can be done via iTunes only.

Not sure what u mean by "Backup data" ?

I'm facing the same situation as you right now. Do you think all will be fixed once they publicly release iTunes 11.1 and iOS7?

Yes, public release of iTunes 11.1 will resolve all this since its mandatory for syncing to iOS7 devices (Gm and forward)

I knew about that
but its a event for iphone so its kind of weird
that they just skip past the OS...

WWDC was a developer conference
this event was a iphone event...
so its kind of weird they dont talk about
what have changed since...
