In years past, the GM has been released roughly a week before the OS is available. I would imagine that the announcement on the 10th means that the OS is available on the 11th or 12th, so it's possible that it went GM today. 

 

Apple probably has 7.0.1 in the can, too.

I'm sure the GM seed will be leaking to the other parts of the Internet soon. 

[illest_ios]

apprently its not going OTA. so does that mean i will have to wait until the 21st?

 

i hope my beta doesnt get deactivated...

 

[illest_ios]

im hoping someone can answer this, if i dont update to GM will i get  the finalized verision OTA? or should i back up and restore back to 6.1.4?

 

im so stumped about this.

Apparently you need access to the iTunes beta as well to install this file?

[Fraydog]

Mine installed without the iTunes beta. I was kind of surprised. 

[Deval]

Yep, you just need the iTunes beta to sync your device. I ended up using my 11.0.5 Win7 version and restored my iPhone through iCloud. 

 

I'm going to flash my iPad now, should be interesting.

[sbolen]

I love the new wallpapers. Great additions.

[Deval]

Running great, although I'm seeing weird glitches. Randomly the device will not unlock by swiping the text message, and other times, when unlocking the screen, the sound does not play.

i finally got around to installing the GM, ,maybe still working some bugs before the public release i say...

Are you guys having issues with the 3G signal constantly dropping to 1x if there is no strong LTE?  We have two phones running iOS 7 GM and 2 still on 6.  When there is not LTE signal the 2 that are on 7 struggle to get data.  The other two don't have this problem - demonstrated by using all 4 phones to try and get data in the same place - the two that have iOS 6 get 3G, the other two start off with 3G and within seconds drop to 1x and start getting error messages. I spoke to Sprint Tech Support and was told they don't support iOS 7, so I kept quiet waiting for public release. I did a clean install of GM, and both phones still have the same problem.

I have that probably sometimes & im on iOS 7 Beta 6 , what I do to fix that issue is AirPlane Mode I turn it off & on & 3G usually comes back stable & strong.

I think Apple got rid of the unlock sound , I haven't heard it since Beta 5.

Mine has been running smoother than iOS 6, I had 6.0 so I wouldn't lose my jailbreak. I prefer Android over iOS, but is iOS 7 has made leaps and bounds (control center). I upgraded and it had an issue, so I'm on a clean install of iOS 7 and unable to sync with my laptop.

It's there, but you have to be on GM. Mine is back now.

They ruined the ring tones for me personally

Opportunity knocking -- go make similar ringtones and sell them in the iTunes Store.

iOS7 is out now.

One thing I found interesting about the final release is that it will put a "1x" in the title bar instead of the "o" now.

I like the 1x instead of the GPRS o. Apple should have fixed that when the iPhone 4 came to Verizon a couple years ago.

Out and it's pretty good.  I too noticed the 1x badge and I appreciate the fact that we can get a bit more clarity on that than a dot for people.  It's easier to explain at that point oddly enough.  

 

Good to see the signal dots aren't the only way to view signal strength.  You can still keep tyour dBm rating if you had that enabled in Field Test mode.  

 

Sprint carrier version is now 15.0.  PRL stayed the same for me (60797 on a 4S), FWIW.  

 

Anyone have any info on what they exactly change from carrier version to the next?  Ex.  14.0 -> 15.0
