iPhone and iPad update just (just) released online

[Lionheart]

Hey all,

Just a heads up.

For those that have iPhones and iPads, a new software release 'just' came out. Its nearly 1AM. I think it was released about 12:45AM. I had just tried to update the iPad and when I tried the iPhone, it found an update. Now iPad has one also.

My iPad is still in the updating stage. iPhone is done and runs fine. Even has the same programs running in multi-task that were running before, Contacts are still in the memory. :d

EDIT: iPad now done, still in the 3.X.X series, doesnt have multi-tasking, etc. Mostly things like WiFi and other bug fixing.

No changelog released with it?

EDIT: Here we go.


Just in case you weren't aware, Apple has released new software update for iPhone and iPad. The iPhone 3G, 3GS and newly released iPhone 4 get iOS 4.0.1 update for better signal bar displays. The iPad (WiFi and WiFi+3G) gets iOS 3.2.1 update for fixing a number of issues. To install the update, you'll need to plug your iOS running device to Mac or PC with iTunes 9.2 installed in it.

The new iOS 4.0.1 update for iPhone and iOS 3.2.1 update for iPad comes just a day after iOS 4.1 beta was released (http://www.techtree.com/India/Techtree_Notes/Apple_iOS_41_Update_For_Developers_Available/551-112283-889.html) to developers. While many continued to report about antennae issues in iPhone 4, the new iOS 4.0.1 firmware update brings cosmetic fix for iPhone 4, 3GS and 3G. The support note (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1061) states that the iOS 4.0.1 update "improves the formula to determine how many bars of signal strength to display".

On the other hand, the iPad versions get iOS 3.2.1 firmware update brings a number of fixes (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1060) that include:



Improved WiFi connectivity
Fixed an issue that could prevent copy and paste of single-page PDF attachments in Mail
Addressed an issue that could cause video playback to freeze
Improved reliability of video-out when using iPad Dock Connector to VGA Adapter
Added Bing as an option for Safari's search field


A notable feature here is Microsoft's Bing search engine being added as an option in Safari's search field.
