iOS 8.0.1 released (update: pulled due to issues)

[kch50428]

Go get it..

Edit 10:39 AM Pacific Time - Users are reporting that Touch ID and Cellular Service is broken with this update on iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. Hold off updating until further notice

Note that the no service issue isn't happening to all users... Caveat emptor on updating your device.

Edit to add: if you updated OTA and are having the "searching" issue... Try connecting to iTunes and restore the iOS that way...

And a question.... This update has been in the hands of Apple's carrier partners for supposedly at least a week...how in blue blazes did one of them not catch this?

From the blog... How to fix it... iOS 8.0.1 kill the Touch ID and cell service on your iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 plus? Here's how to fix it! | iMore

I wonder if it fixes the bug where the 3rd party keyboards don't show during quick reply?

Do not update to iOS 8.0.1! It's causing no cell service and touchID is not working! Just FYI!

Apparently you can use your 3rd party keyboard to enter a password now without the OS defaulting back to the original

rebooting does not help. Not good since I need it for work.

Re: iOS 8.0.1 released

Re: iOS 8.0.1 released

I can't imagine them not releasing another update later today to fix this.

Resetting network settings did not help!

Just curious... What service provider and phone do you all have. I have AT&T on an iPhone 6 Plus. My friend has a 5s and updated to iOS 8.0.1 and has sprint. His phone is working fine.

I think if they didn't today then there will be what I believe is a legitimate gripe with Apple.
