Apple releases 7.0.5 to fix network errors in China for iPhone 5s and 5c

IMG_2272

Apple has just released iOS 7.0.5 to iPhone 5s and 5c users to correct issues with ‘network provisioning’ on Chinese carriers. The update totals 35.4 megabytes in size and only appears for affected iPhone 5c and 5s devices, as the bug fix is only applicable to these devices.

Although the fix is relevant to China, the update appears to all users who have the non-US models of both the iPhone 5s and 5c. The exact nature of the “provisioning error” is unknown.

    Why even bother to do a separate update for just that???

      Because there are tens of millions of customers who are not able to use their product as intended.

        There are tens of millions of developers in China who cried about it? Get over your self…

      Next time you whine about a bug or feature request, we’ll say the same to you.

        It’s a beta! If you dont expect bugs dont download it. But it’s dumb to address one issues when they could’ve done when improving other features

        >>It’s a beta!

        No, it’s explicitly a release version of the software. That’s why it was released. As a release version of the software.

        We’re not talking about betas. We’re not talking about prerelease software. We’re talking about release software. Release software can have bugs.

        >>But it’s dumb to address one issues when they could’ve done when improving other features

        That’s not for you to say. And how DARE they fix one problem and not another! MY problem is OBVIOUSLY more important than YOURS!

        Come on.

      Wow….and I’m saying this as someone who for the most part enjoys Tallest Skil’s commentary…
      But way to make him look like the level headed reasonable one…you sir…sound like a d!ck.
