QUOTE(M4A1 @ Sep 23 2014, 10:55 AM) yes updated my iphone 5 since 1st day some function is nice such as timer for camera but alot of function is not there yet ie. when msg come u...i suppose can reply on the spot, but cannot my apps turn left and right screen macam slow respond safari macam become slow...open new tab like need 1 second delay and etc etc... so DONT UPGRADE YET...regret here..see even dannykhoo17 also ask dun upgrade...i also ask my gf dun upgrade Was so delighted when I got the update notification. But I remembered seeing somewhere in /k/ that people updated to iOS 8 and their phones suddenly became slow.  Thought they are trolling so decided to ask a more serious subforum here. Manatau really the truth. Thanks a lot guys for your prompt responses!

QUOTE(zuhaili87 @ Sep 23 2014, 12:21 AM) After 5 days of using iOS 8 on my iPad mini retina (& just a day on my 5s  ), ive decided to switch back to iOS 7.1.2. The difference is huge man. At first i thought iOS 8 is fast enough on my iPad but sadly no. iOS 7.1.2 is much2 faster and snappier and not to mention much more stable than iOS 8. To me iOS 8 needs a lot of work to be done, the experience is really bad, with so many minor but noticeable bugs. (wifi, touch sensitivity, keyboard auto jump, photo upload, compatability, etc..) i hope in next update Apple will fix all of that stuff. Till then, will stick with iOS 7.1.2.  Can still revert? Apple still sign 7.1.2? Can you give me a link to show me how to revert please? Can I just restore from my backup?

Thanks, the only reason I am planning to revert is that I plan to get the 6+ and pass the 5s to the wife, and it is better for her to have one that is snappy and fast. iOS 8 in 5s is not bad. It's quite fast too.. but iOS 7 would be snappier!

QUOTE(shockk @ Sep 22 2014, 12:54 PM) Thanks for the heads-up. Will refrain updating to iOS 8 for my iPad Mini until they fix this major issue. Anyone who have updated their iPhone to iOS 8 and having WIFI issues ever since, give this a try, as it seems to be working on my iPhone 5s Just have to monitor it for the next few days to confirm it is a permanent fix QUOTE Disable a Wi-Fi System Service Setting
If resetting network settings did nothing for you, you may want to experiment with toggling off a wi-fi system setting. MacRumors reports that some users have had a positive impact by disabling this setting, though it’s not entirely clear what exactly this specific setting controls (it is possible it’s a wi-fi based geolocation service, hence why it’s in Location Services settings).
Head to the Settings app, go to “Privacy” and then to “Location Services”, where at the bottom you will find “System Services”, then flip the switch to disable Wi-Fi Networking. This does NOT turn off wireless networking in iOS. SoS

The hands off feature is quite confusing , some area u need wifi connection but need not the Internet , some area just the Bluetooth will do. Like calling need to connect to the same wifi network. Why can't just link through Bluetooth ? We have Bluetooth hands free and no problem at all. Besides that , for the airdrop to enable all the time , the battery dies even faster . I'm using iPhone 5. Decided not to go iPhone 5s , not worth the upgrade. But iphone 6 , yes
