Apple Releases iOS 6.0.1 for iPhone, iPad and iPod

Posted November 1, 2012 at 5:14pm by iClarified
Apple has released iOS 6.0.1 for the iPhone, iPad, iPad Mini, and iPod Touch. You can download the update by connecting your device to iTunes to download or via OTA update.

This update contains improvements and bug fixes, including:
● Fixes a bug that prevents iPhone 5 from installing software updates wirelessly over the air
● Fixes a bug where horizontal lines may be displayed across the keyboard
● Fixes an issue that could cause camera flash to not go off
● Improves reliability of iPhone 5 and iPod touch (5th generation) when connected to encrypted WPA2 Wi-Fi networks
● Resolves an issue that prevents iPhone from using the cellular network in some instances
● Consolidated the Use Cellular Data switch for iTunes Match
● Fixes a Passcode Lock bug which sometimes allowed access to Passbook pass details from lock screen
● Fixes a bug affecting Exchange meetings

For information on the security content of this update, please visit this website:

If you have an iPhone 5, the updater will download an app first that enables OTA updates then it will download 6.0.1.

We'll keep you posted on any other changes.

if they will fix Brightness problem, battery backup will go down, just because of this reason they are not fixing.

Maps is server based, hence server problem, not app.

Is anyone able to save SHSH blobs for 6.0? I tried using TU and iSHSHit but neither worked. I didn't think Crapple closed the signing window that fast. I'm still rocking 5.1.1 but was hoping to snatch the blobs. I shouldn't have out it off for so long I guess.

Not paying much attention, are yopu? There is not likely to EVER be a jailbreak coming. Deal with it.

I'm still on 5.1.1 but if you upgraded your iPad or 4S then I would recommend upgrading to 6.0.1 using iTunes and knowing Apple they usually keep the window open for about 2 days just like they did with iOS 5 after 6 came out I was able to downgrade back to 5.1.1, one thing for sure use iTunes!

Same here. Wouldn't be upgrading until there's a JB. It's fine as is.

My iPad 3 gen got a lot slower after the update. Does this update fix that?

Does the "updater app" delete automatically when the OTA updates are finished, or do you delete it yourself? And, can you even delete it?

It disappears afterwards.
