Apple releases iPhone software 3.1.2
 

Rest in peace, iPhone 3.1. It was just last month that the most recent iPhone update hit the streets and already it?s been superseded by the younger, faster, better-looking iPhone 3.1.2 that Apple released on Thursday. Whither iPhone 3.1.1? I?m afraid we may never know.

iPhone 3.1.2 appears to be focused mainly on providing bug fixes for a few problems introduced in iPhone 3.1. Apple specifically calls out a problem where iPhones may not wake from sleep?it remains to be seen if this is the issue that some users had dubbed "coma mode". In addition, the update fixes an intermittent issue that could interfere with cellular network services and require a restart, and a bug that could cause a crash while streaming video.

Once you update to 3.1.2, you'll also be able to download a new carrier update, though what exactly that's for we don't know at this time.

The update weighs in at a hefty 306.2MB on my iPhone 3GS, and is also available for the iPhone 3G, the original iPhone, and the iPod touch. As always, it's available only via iTunes.

Thanks for letting us know. I'll get it.

cool yeah I went in coma mode a few times..

I noticed tethering was still enabled in my settings even though Apple/AT&T was suppose to have killed it with a recent update.

kicks ass on my laptop when theres no wireless around.

Just letting people know who have the 3.1 probs.

I'm personally on 3.0.1 with hacked carrier update(mms enabled)

(didn't want to update no update for jailbroken yet...)
I use too many cydia apps to lose em so ill wait..

Ahh isnt it cute. Apple finally has a product that has mass appeal and market share. Now they are the ones behind the eight ball doing bug fixes and new versions and sub versions every other day.
I just feel it that soon there may be some very bad iphone abilities created by others to exploit many of its so damn fucking cool functions.

This is sort of how Microsoft feels like when you have the dominate product on the market. People look for and find every single crack, even better if they can cause havoc.

I do love smart phones though. They fucking kick ass. I just use a G1.

appreciate the heads up!

Fan boys will say that this will just enhance the apple experience and when Microsoft has updates it's to fix flawed software.

Flaws are undocumented user errors.

How did you know?
