8.1 is available now, just started download via OTA.

 

I am glad someone is brave enough to try it first.  Let us know if there is an issue.

Downloading now.

Me three. ITunes said the servers were down so I wonder what that is about.

I am on day 21 for my 6+ order. I was hoping I would get it sooner. I thought that maybe sprint was playing loose with the shipping times. well maybe this will be the week I get it.

Probably a few people are trying to download it with you at the same time.

I was just coming here to say that. Definitely used to be Sprint 17.0.

[cyclone]

. Mine says 17.1 I also noticed you gained a small amount of storage back from 55.6 to 56

I have 8.1, and I have to walk to my other office on the other side of campus here in a few minutes.  I typically pick up B41 for a couple blocks.  I'll try to not stumble into someone while my eyes are glued to Field Test mode.

*edit* nevermind

started download around 1210, was stuck on 'preparing for almost 40 minutes.

 

rebooted at 1255, still upgrading now.

 

finished upgrade and back up to home screen around 103p.

 

so just under an hour for me from download/upgrade/home screen, 6+/64g.

The update went without a hitch for me. Started around 15 after 1, finished installing by 1:40.

Mine just finished up.

Boo on Apple for making me use touch id just to have Apple pay enabled.

With me still being in a cast it gets annoying to have to do my code or fingerprint everytime I need my phone. Guess I'm waiting a few weeks to try it out.

[cyclone]

I didn't gain any storage on mine but it also changed to 18.0

Hopefully soon. I ordered my 6+ 1 month ago, and I'll finally be picking it up in the store tomorrow adder it's been sitting there almost 2 weeks.

I can't wait for someone to report their phone is connecting to 1x800 over evil nasty unusable PCS.....This would be my dream..

The sysadmins at work are pretty good about blocking Apple's update servers -- otherwise, I'm sure they'd get crushed with people trying to download every iOS update out there... 

 

I found a loophole -- toggle WiFi, ping the server, get the 'updates available' (in this case, iOS 8.1) and flip back on WiFi, begin downloading and installing.

 

And now I feel like MacGuyver. 

[jamisonshaw125]

Well text message forwarding is finally on. And I just got an email from apple with a download link for yosemite...I'm gonna click it and see what happens lol

[CaryTheLabelGuy]

8.1 seems to be working good. I haven't put it through its paces totally.

 

We shall see.

Am I reading this right that the update allows for picking which data networks your phone will connect to? Wonder if this means you can sort of force LTE and also if that will effect receiving calls?

Hopefully the WiFi problems have been corrected with 8.1. I had to reboot at least once a day (my iPad Air and iPhone 6 running 8.0.2), both at home and at work just to regain lost signal. I'd go to WiFi in settings and no SSID's, just the spinning wheel. If it's fixed, oh happy day!
