3 days using ios 11.2.1

what i can say.. it is really good! battery life superb then 11.2  thumbup.gif  thumbup.gif

left home around 2am and battery 90%

mobile legend 6 games...total around 2 hour.

youtube,fb and whatsapp and spotify

got back around 10.30am.. battery life left 38%  thumbup.gif  thumbup.gif

So What Do You Get?

Unlike iOS 11.2, the smaller iOS 11.2.1 adds no new features and has been quickly rolled out specifically to fix bugs introduced in the previous release (yes, this has become something of a vicious circle). As such Apple’s release notes simply state:

“iOS 11.2.1 fixes bugs including an issue that could disable remote access to shared users of the Home app”

Short and sweet. The good news is this fix seems to work. But, as always, Apple is playing coy. There’s also a secret fix in iOS 11.2.1 for the camera blur bug iOS 11.2 introduced for some iPhone X, iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus users and - potentially - under the hood battery tweaks given the positive responses I’m seeing from some users online.

Why doesn’t Apple declare every fix in every iOS update? Because declaring every fix means acknowledging every bug. It’s smart marketing.

Meanwhile Apple’s official security page confirms iOS 11.2.1 contains nothing new. This isn’t surprising since security updates are usually issued every 6-8 weeks and Apple is pushing iOS updates at a rate of almost once a week at present.

Thanks for sharing. But I am still with iOS 11.1.1. From your post above, it seems like a must for me to upgrade to fix some of the bugs from my current iOS.

We only live once. Once we step forward, no more looking back. That's why i scare. My battery life on iOS11.1.1 is pretty impressing. That's make me hard to move forward.

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 tongue.gif

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

you can downgrade firmware in couple of mins  biggrin.gif

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? doh.gif If yes, then no risk to go for iOS 11.2 already for me ;P

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....  biggrin.gif

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

QUOTE(kennt0312 @ Dec 22 2017, 01:59 PM)
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.
*
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. tongue.gif
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 doh.gif Hopefully still working the same as before, providing me 10 hours usage time smile.gif

Can u guys recommend a clear transparent casing for 8 plus that won't cause bubble at the back? I've seen a lot of case but some people said that it cause bubble when they put it on. Also, my budget is tight, thus the cheaper the better >.<

I am using one from Maxis, behind got word “viva madrid”. So far no bubbles 🙊

Nope, the price should be around 50+ too right. For me, a cheap one will do normally. But since now it is all glass, maybe RM50 + casing is still acceptable smile.gif

Hi all sifus, is apple warranty replacement set consider refurbish set? coz i juz purchase my iphone 8 last week.. and it cant on. Machine said will give me a replacement set.

There is no exact answer on this. But don't worry, the replacement set will be just like a new phone. Do check the phone on the spot again before you leave. Sorry for your loss of your old phone. Hopefully new one serve you the best.
