iOS 5 Beta Thoughts

iKIKO said:
thats weird that facetime works with you. also i noticed that with some webpages when loading safari closes up....

its stable, but not that stable...maybe ill go down to 4.3.3 and wait for the beta 2 comes out :p

What issues are you having? I've not come across many...some apps just crash when I load them but I don't really use them that much. Safari seems a bit quicker, especially with tabbed browsing - no more page reloads!

iPad2 owner - any questions or problems...just ask.
 
what i found so far...

bluetooth iphone-ipad doesnt work, for me at least...only through wifi thetering

facetime doesnt work either..

safari closes when loading some web sites...and like you said safari seems a little bit faster...

i tryed some apps and none has crashed so far...

iTranslate app crashes for me.

Not had the safari problem yet.

Battery life seems good...been using it for a good 20 mins and have only lost about 2%

Hey, what happens when you click 'Buy More Storage'? Also, which is the majority for beta iOS 5: "Things that work" or "Things that DON'T work"? Plus, has the iPad's screen always been that beautiful? :)

Nobody knows. Apple hasn't turned on cloud yet.

The only thing wrong that I have noticed are the multi touch gestures. Also there is a bug with the mail app. When you touch reload (the little loopy arrow at the bottom) it doesn't re load.

Yep. Gestures don't work.

Ha. The iPad 2 belongs to the hubby. But he's not so tech saavy so I have to sync for him (although every time I touch it he starts yelling that "Im gonna messit up!") I explained what iOS 5 will do for him and he's super excited to synce from the cloud. I will have to keep that file system nice and organized for him. For my stuff though I pretty much use Xoom. :) I actually switched to Android because I hated iTunes that much.

Hate iTunes. Don't we all? :D

I downgraded. Got tired of no jailbreak.
My pulse stopped after 48 hours of a stock iPad.
Stock iOS is SOOOO boring.

I have had a lot of crashes.
Tabs are awesome though. Maybe now we can call it an actual browser. What browser doesn't have tabs? Oh I forgot. Safari does. :)

Now now. we'll have none of that kind of talk here j/k.
There only 2 things in this life I hate. ITunes and I don't remember the other because iTunes is so number 1

@Graywolf, I have so many things to comment, I don't know where to start, LOL. :p Okay, how about this:

Hate iTunes. Don't we all? :D

The only thing I hate about iTunes is how much it sucks on Windows. Other than that, I breathed it- Kept managing my old iPhone simple and easy. Although, there is something to be said on the sync speeds. I had enough time for 1 TV show on iTunes, LOL.

Really? I mean, really?... When I bought my iPhone it was jailbroken, but it was too cluttered and hectic for me; so I reverted to stock. Ever since then, I religiously updated my iPhone- Even synced like every 20 minutes, LOL. I ran stock iOS for 95% of the time that I had my iPhone- Not sure if you can survive that, @graywolf. ;)


I have had a lot of crashes. Tabs are awesome though. Maybe now we can call it an actual browser. What browser doesn't have tabs? Oh I forgot. Safari does. :)

Crashes... Eh, I expected it from a Beta 1 release. And yes, from what I saw, tabbed browsing is awesome. (Obviously, since we've all been using it on other browsers, LOL. :D) Well, I already considered iOS Safari to be a browser- Just a little mentally-retarded, if you will. XD Also, Safari technically does have tabs- since there is a release of it. Beta, yes, but still. Haha, I just love arguing with you about this. :);):D

PS. What's your age, if you don't mind me asking? ;P

PPS. @Mountainbikermark, not fair! :( I was supposed to respond first, haha.
End rant/response, LOL. :p

I had a problem with FaceTime too. I went back to 4.3.3 logged out of FaceTime. Reupgraded to 5 then everything was working after the restore
 
Did anyone have any trouble restoring their iPad after ios 5 was installed. It told me that my backup file was corrupt or not compatible.
