Go get it folks…. iOS 4.1 available now!

iOS 4.1 available now

Finally after much waiting iOS 4.1 is available for download now… why are you still reading this, you should have plugged your iPhone in and hit the Check for Updates button by now! (unless of course you are jailbroken, in which case stay well clear of it). Keep reading for some details of the latest version of iOS.

iOS 4.1 brings a few bug fixes and a number of new features.

New

New features include Game Center (as I am sure you are all aware), Ping for your iPhone, HD video uploading (Upload HD video to YouTube and MobileMe from your iPhone 4),  and of course HDR for the camera (iPhone 4 only).

Once installed why not log in to Game Center, register and then Tweet your ID with #gamecenterID tag so others can add you as a friend.

and improved

One big fix is the proximity sensor issue and I can confirm it is now fixed in iOS 4. Prior to the update I pretty much put someone on hold on every call. Since the update it has worked flawlessly. Also included are fixes for Bluetooth connectivity issues and iPhone 3G performance issues.

Unfortunately it doesn’t change the method for signing up to FaceTime. We had heard that it would be changed so that registration would be done via email address instead of an activation text, however it seems as though this would only be for the new iPod touch and the iPhone 4 still uses the original method. As such ported numbers may still have issues.

Go on, you know you wnat to

So what are you waiting for, hit your iTunes “Check for Updates” button and install it now… already got it? Tell us what you think in the comments below.

    im not sure about this, can someone confirm?

    according to dev-team http://twitter.com/iphone_dev

    dont update your ios 4.1, its a trap, which people who has firmware 4.0.2 ( which i assume all people that has deliveries around august/sept will shipped with it) might not be able to jailbreak your device FOREVER if u upgrade to ios 4.1 now.. dev-team reccomend for us to wait for their official jailbreak release..

    I just read this and at the moment im not updating to ios 4.1
    i might be wrong about this but just to let yall know :)

    Downloaded & installed iOS4.1 within about 30 minutes today, went through smooth as! My 3G iphone is heaps more responsive now, apps opening much quicker and not hanging like they did on 4.0.1. Lost my jailbreak apps but the new speed makes up for it…till the next j/b lol

    well after freaking ages, it seems that when I upgraded with a fully charged battery, the iPhone’s battery completely discharged. After an age, I got the charge signal and then now she’s back.

    Crazy
