My argument is if we’re always worried, we’ll never take that step over. Of course it’s your life not mine hehe, just saying no offense

Yes, agreed with the above. That's why we only make sure it is safe, only step forward. Thanks though.

It depends on your luck too.
You were lucky to have a stable IOS 11.1.1, while some hit problem.
I had problem with IOS 11 on the 6S. I have to keep chasing for new updates.
Now with IOS 11.2.1 it looks stable.
For the SE, I stayed back with IOS 10.3.3

Noted bro. Will hold for abit, until i see the need to update my iOS version. Thank you for sharing

Ya, good point. I had an unstable 11.1.1 on 7 Plus, causing battery drain. 11.2 solved that.

you can downgrade firmware in couple of mins

I think 11.2 is perfect on an 8plus tbh... at least better than 11.1.1 for sure from what others have shared hehe

Do I need to do back up so that i can downgrade? Is it hard? Any link that I can follow? If yes, then no risk to go for iOS 11.2 already for me ;P

Thanks for reply. Waiting him to reply, maybe there is other way to restore to older version ops.

By the way, how to restart phone to clear cache? I have tried to press down volume, power button + home button.. But when i hold a lil longer, SOS rang my phone gg. Any idea?

as long as u backup 11.1.1, then upgrade to 11.2 and perform another backup ( now u have 2 backups = 1 for 11.2 and another older for 11.1.1), once u downgrade ios, u can backup the older one.... hmmm its very easy to downgrade firmware, but first u need to make sure the firmware u wanna downgrade is still signed by ipsw (https://ipsw.me/ = check availability). if its not signed means cannot downgrade..

EDIT: just checked 11.1 is not signed anymore... so yea u cant downgrade it..

Thanks for your afford on checking this for me. Appreciate your work. Hence, I will continue sitting and wait for the right time.

im also as particular as you when it comes to battery and performance, but trust me bro I think 11.2 is a good move for you (iphone 8plus), other models I dare not say but from all the reviews so far, I think its a must get... though I wont hold any responsibility if it doesn't turn out well on your device, coz u know ... luck....

heard that this version is the best of iOS so far. keep that, when you wanna sell your phone will be even easier to sell to stay at that version.

it is different command in i8/+ & X.it is a bit tricky compared to earlier models.

follow this:
press volume up 1 time,
press volume down 1 time,
long press power button until your screen show up apple logo

edit: you have to do the above steps quickly. press and release quickly on each volume button.

Does anyone know how to bring up the Notification Center while Youtube is playing in landscape/fullscreen mode?
Most of the time Youtube will show suggestion videos list when i swipe up.

Yea. Thanks for your advice. I know the responsibility is on me. Appreciate your input for boosting my confidence to step forward.

Yes! Done! Would it harms my phone? It's my first time doing it. Yes! My phone restarted. But my during the process is so scary, my screen was like got 1 line in the middle, then Apple logo appear and disappear and appear again. And now started up.

it won't harm your phone, don't worry. this function is meant to design for us to clean up/restart phone.
whenever you found that your phone is slowing down, heat up for no reason etc issue, you can always try with these method first before proceed for checking in service center.

Nice. Thanks. But i just did the clean up/restart phone without any reason Hopefully still working the same as before, providing me 10 hours usage time

ok hope u'll make up ur mind on the upgrade..

Will shout in this thread when I did it Thanks. haha
