Does anyone have lag on iOS 8.1 on the iPhone 6 ?

Every time I get a message and hit "reply" the drop down sections comes down very chopping. The graphics are very bad. I had this issue on iOS 8 and i cleane installed iOS 8.1 but still have it. It seems like it would be software related since other apps and the notification screen seem to drop down just fine. The transitions for the quick reply just look terrible.

My brand new iPhone 6 Plus, fresh from the box, was immediate bricked by the 8.1 update. The progress bar was there, but then it went to endlessly rebooting with the Apple logo on black. Occasionally a white screen appears with an in the corner, but not tappable. It goes back to the Apple logo from there. Each reboot chirps but doesn't vibrate. Many minutes between reboots, and I let it go for well over an hour before giving up.
Force-shutdown (hold both buttons) didn't help.
Connecting to iTunes to Restore from scratch didn't help: iTunes could see the phone, but it said it couldn't wipe and restore until I went to Settings on my iPhone and disabled Find My iPhone! Which is impossible since the phone is bricked...
The phone seemed fine... for the 60 seconds I played with it before accepting the 8.1 update...
Now I'm trying all different timings and repetitions of button combinations and hot plug/unplug timings, hoping to force Recovery Mode. No luck so far. I may need a Genius appointment, and get my brand new never-used iPhone swapped for a refurb... if one is even available. Meanwhile, I sure hope nobody needs to call me on the phone...
Good thing I at least have an iTunes backup (I'm simply restoring from my old iPhone 5's backup, since this is Day One with the new iPhone).
iOS 8 definitely needed a few more months of testing before releasing it. I know they didn't want to delay the hardware just because of non-functioning software, but it was a bad call. I'd have rather had my new iPhone delayed until Thanksgiving but have it actually turn on...

  • Does anyone know of an e-reader app for the iphone that has text to speech capability? I have a Kindle 3G that can read whole pdf documents and books but I cannot figure out how to do it on my iphone 4.

    Does anyone know of an e-reader app for the iphone that has text to speech capability? I have a Kindle 3G that can read whole pdf documents and books but I cannot figure out how to do it on my iphone 4.
    All of the apps I have found on the App store either do not have the text to speech capability or if they have it they will only read a page at a time or simply read the text you paste into their window. I really do not understand what is so difficult about having this feature as Kindle provides it--though Amazon does not make the feature available on its iPhone 4 app.
    Please help.

    thanks. yes i am aware of the VoiceOver feature but it is NOT the solution to my problem. as you said, it is a solution to a different set of issues. i want the text to speech ability because i there are books i need to read but do not have the time to sit down and read them and have become used to listening to them read to me either by a professional human reader or with the text to speech software on the Kindle.
    I think Apple makes the best audio devices but i am really disappointed in this inexplainable shortcoming. if apple can give us siri they ought to be able to design a nice little button that i can push to turn on text to speech while i am in a document, book, magazine or webpage. clearly it is possible as apple has added the "reader" button in safari to have web pages dropped into the reader format.
    thanks for your suggestion though, it is what everyone suggests but it does not address the issue.

  • Does anyone have a simple program that will return the size of a file

    Does anyone have a simple program that will return the size of a file?

    I quite hate it when I receive the incorrect amount of yoctocandela per metre squared. Swarthy people
    can't properly convert poundal feet to barleycorn; throws off the whole conversion! Aaah, you get what
    you paid for.I recognize those figures; you've got your outsourced file sizes from Zanzibar; admit it! I always apply
    the scientific approach when I've got file sizes back from Zanzibar: I simply divide those numbers by
    pi (very scientific) and drop the eleven (ueber scientific, because 11 is prime even when looked upon
    as a binary number) least significant bits. And remember: never compare two floating point numbers
    for equality. (<--- that's a free tip)

  • Does anyone have any advice/hints/tips on changing the OBIEE UI?

    Hello folks
    I just wanted to put the feelers out there. Does anyone on here have any experience of modifying the overall look and feel or OBIEE?
    Fundamentally, I want to keep all the great features and functionality of OBIEE but I want to give it a more contemporary look and feel.
    Fundamentally, it's delivered through HTML so I assume it's possible to do. I just don't know where to begin or what is even possible.
    Any thoughts/comments/suggestions most appreciated. If anyone has done this and has a UI they're particularly proud of, maybe even a screenshot to see what can be done.
    Maybe you know someone who would be prepared to be engaged on a contract to do this.
    Just throwing it out there.
    Many thanks

  • Does anyone have a problem with speaker phone on their Iphone

    I notice when I am in the car and if I don't use my jawbone. And I go right to the speakerphone I cannot hear the person, I have to put the phone almost up to my ear in order to hear them. I know when I had the razor it was loud and clear.

    I have had the same problem, however, I find if I cup my hand down by the base of the iphone (where the mike and speaker are) the speaker phone is louder. With the speaker in this location you need to have some method of obtaining a "bounce" for the sound back up to your ear. However, I do not believe it is as clear, nor as loud as it should be.

  • Does anyone have issues with iOS 5.1.1?

    My iPod Touch 4G is running (I say running, It's actually imitating a slug on sleeping pills) iOS 5.1.1. It normally crashes (Goes into recovery mode) about once a week. For an example, when I wake up, I check the time; and it won't even open when I press the home or sleep buttons. Then it will kick into the much-loved pre-crash loading screen. Sometimes it will snap out of it's trance, other times, I will let it sit for a half-hour or so, and when I come back, I find myself staring at the iTunes logo in rage -_- So I'm wondering if this is a known problem with 5.1.1, or If I recieved a device with a bad OS or hardware.

    I personally have an iPod Touch running on iOS 5.1.1 and have no such problems. However, I do notice my iPod is running slower, and will freeze, though it's rare, maybe once a month or so.
    May I suggest formatting your iPod?

  • Does anyone have any real answers to what specs the Best Buy version of the U43JC has?

    I called Best Buy 1-800 number numerous times and everyone keeps giving me different answers. And being on the phone with them so often I figured out what they do, they go bing.com or google.com and do a search. They have no real facts other than what other websites are saying.
    1) Processor: It says I5-450m, but the processor speed states "2.26Ghz" which is the speed of the I5-430m. So, I5-450m or I5-430m?
    2) Built in Webcam says on Best Best as being 0.3mp....but every other website that is pre-selling this model says 2.0mp..So, 0.3mp or 2.0mp?
    3) There is no mention of built in Bluetooth for the Best Buy model, but other sites selling the U43JC says built in Bluetooth. Does the best Buy model have built in Bluetooth?
    4) There is no mention for the U43JC of having WIDI (Intel Wireless Display Technology) but all the other websites selling this model state it having WIDI. Does the U43JC that Best Buy is selling have WIDI?
    5) I know Asus offers a 8 cell battery with 4400mah or 5600mah......All the other websites specifically state 8cell 5600mah. Which 8 cell battery does the one Best Buy is selling have?
    6) All the other websites mention the U43JC having 2-2.0 USB and 1-3.0 USB, while Best Buy mentions 3-2.0 USB. Does the Best Buy version of the U43JC have 1-3.0 USB?
    Lastly what is the difference between a Asus U43JC-BBA7 which is how Best Buy labels it V.S. the Asus U43JC-A1 which the other websites mention it as?

    --"I called Best Buy 1-800 number numerous times and everyone keeps giving me different answers. And being on the phone with them so often I figured out what they do, they go bing.com or google.com and do a search. They have no real facts other than what other websites are saying."
    Only BBYs buyer will have such details on product. They don't answer phones.
    ---1) Processor: It says I5-450m, but the processor speed states "2.26Ghz" which is the speed of the I5-430m. So, I5-450m or II-430m?"
    It's called a "typo", and congratulations...you caught it. You get a cookie now. The unit has the 450M.
    ---"2) Built in WebMD says on Best Best as being Amp...But every other website that is pre-selling this model says Amp.So, Amp or Amp?"
    WOW...that's TWO typos! TWO cookies for you.
    3) The BBY unit has no Bluetooth.
    The unit is built to spec by BBY corporate buyers. Looks like you're more into the factory model.

  • Does anyone have problems upgrading Premiere Elements 12 with the latest update that will fix bugs and improve the stability of the program?

    Hi there!
    I can´t update my software, it starts to download and everything but when it is supposed to start the update I only get an error message.
    The update is to the 12.1 version of the software and with a size of 67 MB.
    The error message that I get is like follows:
    "Adobe Premiere Elements 12.1-update
    An error has occurred during the installation of this update. Cancel and try again later. Error code: U44M1I210"
    Can anyone help me to find a solution of this problem please?
    I run 64-bit version of Windows 7. (And I have the 64-bit version of Premiere Elements 12)
    Best regards!

    lily
    Please look at the following possible Premiere Elements 12 solution for the 12 to 12.1 Update.
    I am assuming that you are using Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit. If others, please supply more details.
    Do you have Premiere CC or any Creative Cloud products on this same computer?
    Right click the Premiere Elements 12 desktop icon and select Run As Administrator. Also, assure that you are running your
    computer and Premiere Elements from a User Account with Administrative Privileges.
    Disable the antivirus and in particular the firewall(s).
    Then open Premiere Elements 12 to Expert workspace Help Menu/Update and determine if you can Update from 12 to 12.1.
    Thank you.

  • Does anyone have a script that embeds and downsizes the images placed in a file?

    WEll?

    Wouldn't this vary significantly from person to person, company to company? For example, we have a ton of starter scripts from previous projects and have an automate prompt generator, so a net new script would only take a matter of days, unless it's something very different than we've seen before.
    Additionally, there are times that you want, newer people, to build something from scratch so they can have a better understanding of what they are doing and how UCCX scripting works. I guess I'm saying that what you're looking probably doesn't exist and if it does it will not apply to you very well.
