Late last night, Apple released version 2.0.2 of the iPhone & iPod Touch firmware. The list of changes? The ever-popular "Bug Fixes."
Even though Apple won't reveal exactly what the changes were, some users are reporting snappier loading of applications and a large reduction in keyboard lag. What about the 3G problems we reported earlier?
One user reports that "2.0.2 seems to include a major version modem firmware update (01.48.02 to 02.08.01)," which could indicate a software fix that was potentially on the way.
Another user wrote up a list of potential changes based on his own experience, but remember these are nowhere near official:
- More 3G bars (5 bars rather than 3 or 2) (It seems so far... For me anyways )
- Snappier transitions
- No More keyboard or contacts lag! (2.0.1 didn't fix it)
- Haven't had a crash (yet)
- No dropped calls (yet)
- Faster GPS lock-in (Around 15 secs when I am outside, wheres yesterday it took around 40 secs)
We're currently upgrading our iPhones and we'll let you know how our own experiences with the 2.0.2 update go. Have you upgraded? Have you noticed any changes?
