iOS7 GM

Recommended Posts

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.

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.

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 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.

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

    • T-Mobile interferes with NextWave's network, FCC finds https://www.lightreading.com/5g/t-mobile-interferes-with-nextwave-s-network-fcc-finds At this point, T-Mobile should just open up the checkbook and pay whatever it takes together rid of NextWave for good. 
    • Flashback (January 11, 2018): Sprint Says No to mmWave, Yes to Mobile 5G https://www.lightreading.com/5g/sprint-says-no-to-mmwave-yes-to-mobile-5g Sprint's CTO said Wednesday that he is not sure that using millimeter waves to deliver 5G services is a practical economic use of the high-band spectrum and that Sprint will be focusing on using its existing bandwidth to deploy 5G, at least initially. "What is the cost to deliver a bit over millimeter waves? Where is the business case on that?" John Saw asked at the Citi conference in Las Vegas. The logic here is that using sub-6GHz networks to deliver 5G -- Sprint Corp. (NYSE: S) is using 2.5GHz -- will allow operators to get better coverage than mmWave (typically 28GHz or 39GHz) and re-use its infrastructure.
    • It looks like they have 700mhz of 24ghz n258 in those areas anyway. Seems like they've been trying to streamline mmw to just n258 anyway.
    • New n261 license reduction for Brooklyn and Queens kinda gives insight into T-Mobile's mmWave plans going forward. While it sucks that they aren't going to widely deploy it in the outer boroughs, they chose great areas to retain the license. Downtown Flushing, Long Island City, Dumbo, Greenpoint, and Williamsburg all make the cut which is pretty obvious given their density.  I'm surprised to see Red Hook make it in and the entire waterfront along Sunset Park. Maybe they plan on some mmWave small cells along 1st Ave in Industry City. Also looks like they retained the license in the party section of Bushwick/East Williamsburg where Elsewhere, House of Yes, Brooklyn Mirage, etc. all are so that would be cool to see get covered in mmWave. In Queens they scooped up Citi Field, Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, and all of Flushing Meadows Park which should be helpful for all of the festivals that take place in that part of Queens. Also looks like they kept the license for LGA but not for JFK.
