damn, that means they'll stop signing 5.0 soon

Should this be a "delta" update? I'm not seeing anything in software update, although maybe it takes a bit to show up...

iTunes is reporting a file size of 798.3MB... probably not a delta... Don't know about OTA... that could be delta

I would hope it'll be available OTA by EOD today. What a waste of bandwidth

I guess I'm confused... I thought we were done with these massive downloads and complete restore of iOS with every update... especially these .1 updates? Oh well, we shall see...

Downloading OTA/wifi on iPad - that is not showing a file size, but a download time of only 5 minutes total... so maybe OTA may be delta??

It is OTA overseas, but not yet stateside.

3gs Issues still exist? I did not update my 3gs to 5.0 because it seemed there were issues. How are things now. I am interested in updating.

Just got it OTA/wifi on my iPad1 - download took 5 minutes, screen says "preparing install"... and now verifying...

[Dperks17]

Can I update my old iphone 4? it's not activated..my 4s is

[BLiNK]

ghostface, can you confirm if the final build# has changed from the beta2?

[SnapThrow]

Just got my OTA Delta update... file size is 55.5MB. Now that's more like it...

[Gooster]

Forgot to try the OTA. Ha ha

Will do it for iPad later.

I got the OTA in the US about 15-20 minutes ago. No problem.

And for those wondering, I recall Apple saying that OTA updates would be delta, but iTunes update would be full version.

Final build is 5.0.1, build 9A405. Does that help?

Update: I just checked the developer site... 5.0.1.b2 was build 9A404, so it does appear that something has changed... no clue what.

OTA on iPad 2 is 39mb and
Took less than a minute on wifi. I will try iPhone 4s now.

[kch50428]

Total update time on my iPad1 was less that 15 minutes OTA/wifi.

(also had some streaming audio & my iTunes/iPhone update going on at the same time...)

[NoleScream]

Worked nicely OTA on my iPhone 4.

[BLiNK]

Final build is 5.0.1, build 9A405. Does that help?

thank you. i believe beta 2 was 9A404

OTA would have to be delta. I downloaded and installed and it happened in much less time than a full update.

Whats the difference between doing it ota and through itunes? an i know what ota means lol

OTA is a patch, through iTunes is a backup, install, and restore from backup.

[kch50428]

Updating via iTunes will be a full download of the iOS... at least it was for my iPhone vs Over The Air for my iPad.

[joe_fresh]

so best bet is to install via itunes? Just wondering, i was going to do it that way anyhow. Thanks guys.
