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.

    @ lakeview01:

    Nope. Free service by apple. The games for it will no doubt cost though. Or decent ones for that matter. :)

    What about the games you have already purchased like Real Racing or Flight Control, you don’t have to purchase them again do you?

    Do I need to purchase the games when game centre is enabled? What about my current games? I have tons of games, but none of them is showing in my account (games I own is in game centre list). Is there any way I can activate this? Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

    If you already have games that are GC enabled you will not have to redownload them.
    As Paul mentioned if you want to see what games are compatable just click the ” Find Game Centre Games in the games tab.
    This will take you to the app store. This feature wasnt working correctly earlier today but it is now.
    The only free game I think is farmville currently

    Downloaded and installed no probs. Photos look good. Took a little over half an hour which was a bit scary as I only had a hour for lunch. Got there in the end.

    cant wait for co-op! I wish Game Center had a messaging system built in?

    Heres the Project Sword demo video from the last event…it looks INCREDIBLE…PS3 level graphics…the multiplayer aspect is mindblowing, you can run the ” Epic Citadel ” tech demo for free now.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ImdjgUip0Nc

    Epic Citadel is the well, “citadel” from the start of the video, you can walk and look around the large map, but theres nothing to do except appreciate the beauty :)

    my Game CentER ID is jaywontdart , I hope to hear plenty of trumpets from you guys soon :)
