I hate the new Maps app and the new AppStore UI! ~_~

Ok, I've been trying to update my 4S OTA for almost 24 hours, and have reieved the same popup (error downloading iOS 6) about 10 times. Not jailbroken, over 5G free space, have tried power cycling the phone between attempts, had no trouble updating my iPad 2. Any suggestions?

Connect your iPhone to a computer and then update via iTunes. It is fast, a backup will automatically be made and your device will be restored as it was prior to the update. There is no sense in you wasting any more time trying to update OTA at this point, in *my* opinion.

Thus far, the map app is okay, but the App Store app has gotta go.

Updating both my 4S and iPad 2 was quick. I performed the update around 1:20 p.m. Yesterday afternoon and didn't have any download or lag issues whatsoever.

*sigh* I thought I was done with the tethered updates a year ago! Thanks for the advice - I'll dust off my laptop and give it a try.

Gotta agree. Map app sucks!

Concur, I took me less than 35 minutes using iTunes yesterday at 2PM Eastern time (iPhone 4s). No problems at all.

The wait is over, and so is this thread.
