Attn: iPhone on Optus users

Post by mrj »

We are on Optus iPhones for our mobiles at work. All users received the below message from our IT department this morning.
the IT department wrote: iTunes now has available version 4.2 upgrade for iPhone 4. Please DO NOT Upgrade your iphones to the new version of software.
It is reported that there in an increased amount of call dropouts than normal and the device to become less responsive.
There will be a network fix that will rectify this issue but will not be completely rolled out till mid December. It is recommended that you not upgrade to 4.2 till after the mid December.

yep seems pretty buggy, this is from our IT department
Please note that there have been many issues with the new release IOS 4.2 from Apple today for IPHONES. There have been many cases of devices having error messages due to updating or going into a restore state.

Please do not update at the moment as this is not recommended until Apple have released a proper IOS or a fix. If your phone does ask to update please do not do this until we send out a future communication.

Across the web there seems to be various forums with issues around this software release so please do not update for now.

protip: if you're tethering through your iphone because you have no dsl at home, don't upgrade it, because you'll feel like a retard when your phone needs to be activated online, but your only connection was through ... your phone.
