[Jeremy]

My iOS 5 OTA is showing me as up to date. Wonder if I have to do it the old fashioned way?

Presuming you have one of the DP builds, yes. You can't delta update to the GM.

I know. Its depressing. Because I don't know my Twitter password to reset up all that.

 

[Vincent]

I've got a few errors during the install.

Restarting always helped
My iPod Touch is now restoring the Apps cause he's done and the iPad is next, I hope that's going to go smoother

No problems with the iPhone here. Not crazy about not being able to move Newsstand into a folder.

 

[Floris]

Being an international customer, it's clear 50% of the features aren't available, as with any platform - developers build even showed this, quite pathetic.

I got iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch, but no Siri as that's only going to be on the 4S!

I'd like to know where you read that.. lol

And yeah, it has yet to show up for me yet :/ Almost 5AM where I am, too!

I read it via the reporting on the event from numerous sites, only the 4s has the power to support Siri.

I read, on the Apple site, that certain versions of the iPod touch and iPad can support it as well. Could have miss-read, though :/

 

[Kim]

am I the only on in this forum without an iphone

No

LOL amusing thread.

 

[esper]

I've had ios5 for over a month. Yes, i have a developer account.

BTW Siri IS only on iPhone 4S

It needs the A5 processor to run, so can't run on any older iPhone models. As far as I'm aware it will also not run on the iOS5 update on the iPad 2, but I will be able to confirm this shortly.

So iOS 5 is released.

The download time for me is currently 67 minutes and counting upwards
Can y'all stop downloading for a second please? I'd love to have my copy first

Took all of 5 minutes if you already had iOS 5 beta and let it push directly to the phone. It just sends deltas.

 

[Dan]

Quite a few of my friends report back to me that they get errors during the initialization process of the phone. telling you to reconnect to iTunes, even though it is, and you have to start the whole thing over again. One person had to restore to factory to get access to the phone again.

Yikes.

Add me to that list

 

[trilogy33]

Add me to that list

+1
It makes me wonder if they'd forgotten the iPod functionality bit...
iOS5 + 3GS = Coverflow jerky slowness and app crash. :roll:

Edit:
Yes, I've done a few hard resets.

 

[Peggy]

I'm installing iOS5 on my iPad 2 now. Been 8 mins, and have 11 mins to go, if all goes well.

Siri =/= iOS 5

As usual, not all the iOS 5 features are available on the oldest models.

However, rumors suggest Siri may eventually be moved onto the iPad and the iMac.
