I never really noticed/cared it was there before so I don't miss it...

Has anyone else noticed when you swipe to unlock, the sound isn't there anymore?? I've hard reset and All. Still nothing, all my other sounds do work fine.

Same here. I still haven't figured out in getting it back. I thought a hard reset would work but no luck.

Wallpaper bug still exists where the picture appears 'zoomed in' and cannot be resized.

May be a bug... or may be a new feature...

Question: I've installed all the betas so far and always did a clean install of everything, apps included. It gets really tedious... Is it safe/recommended to restore an older "backup" from a ios 6.1.4 for example? Or will some things conflict. Thanks

that has been gone since beta 1. I don't think it is coming back because now the play controls are always on the lock screen when the device is locked.

The transparency on the phone search has increased to the point it's unreadable (may depend on your wallpaper image)

Update still not showing up for me. Took forever with beta 4 as well...

I wouldn't. I had a LOT of battery drain issues when I restore my 6.1.4 backup to Beta 1. This could be a placebo effect thing, but I will do a backup to iCloud, and then restore from iCloud fresh. It seems to help weed out all the "crap" that old iTunes backups tend to hold on to. I did it when I noticed the battery drain problems, and it immediately fixed everything. It was like night and day. I'll do that when the GM for 7 comes out.

i messed up my backup of 6.1.4. so lost all my data lol... beta 5 seems to run amazingly smooth on my iphone 5.. i think im going to stick wid dis one... otherwise i usually go back to 6.1.4 after checking out da new beta.. no bugs so far. pretty much faster and smoother den da last beta

Turn off Paralax and your wallpapers will be sized properly. You still can't zoom or move them around though. Now it seems like the zoom in on the image is even worst.

yea, getting really annoyed with this one.

I don't think it's a new feature it definitely has to do with Paralax yes but when you select an image it says scale and move but you can do neither. They're probably just working on it still hopefully.

When iOS 7 is official people will do upgrades so when I first started with the betas I sort of simulate the same things to see what bugs pop up. The way I do it and I'm not saying it's right just saying it's what I do. Is I do an option+Restore with the ipsw which wipes the phone and installs the OS. Then I restore from my latest backup which puts back my settings and everything else. I've been restoring since beta 1. Sure I have issues but that is the point of using a beta so when I get them I report it to Apple. This is my daily device and I have been using the beta since beta 1 with my restores so take that for what it's worth. My device is personal so if you need yours for work then you might have issues that you just can't have happen with the phone.

The little bars for NC and CC now take on colors depending on your lock screen image.

Questions:
1. Anyone notice if they have they solved the issue where embedded album art (that is art inside the actual mp3 file) was sometimes not displayed at all?

2. Anyone have any idea if they will add an option to remove album art from music player lists, like Artists view? With album art in the list you get far fewer entries per screen and makes you scroll a ton more than when you had no art and like 8 artists per page. It be nice to disable this for people like me with large media libraries.
