    Have not myself had any issues and have not heard of any friends or colleagues who experience issues. Sounds like media spin...

    Which model phone(s) involved?

    Thanks Apple, 

    You seemed to fix the problem where my phone could make calls and TouchID was working perfectly. 

     

    iPhone 6, ATT, OTA.

    Heads should roll. Not devs. Head of test. If they have one.

    Still showing up under Software Update on my iPhone 6.  Really, Apple should have pulled this release by now...

    Except for all of us with issues... like my new 6 which now says No Service and doesn't have working Touch ID.

    Why is the answer to always blame Tim Cook. The CEO does not do code pushes. LMAO! Do people even think before they say this stuff?

    Fishes and rotting from top. Etc.

    Man I don't know what be happening but I never, ever have any of these problems.  I just updated 2 iPads' and 2 iPhones and have been running smooth since like iOS 6.

    Updated to IOS8.0.1 immediately when it came out and have not experienced any issues what so ever? Is this story validated?

    Hi Johnny

    Did you install the update via itune or directly from your iphone?

    It appears to be affecting 6 and 6 Plus uses who did OTA update. This is a serious **** up on Apple's part and someone needs to be fired.

    How would it be to stage upgrades to one city or to apple employees. For a few days. World wide.

    Updated immediately on an iPhone 5s with AT&T as my carrier. No issues whatsoever.

    Touch ID works fine.

    I can make phone calls just fine.

    Have the folks having this issue tried to simply power-cycle their devices?

    Tim's the CEO. The buck stops with him. And yes someone needs to be canned over this. You don't release an OTA update that removes people's cell phone service on the brand new phone they just bought.

    Better through iTunes than OTA?

    In other news, it's refreshing to see an Apple scandal with real evidence behind it for once! Hope it's resolved quickly.

    back up data.  wipe it clean. and re-install the old iOS, reload the data back.  Will take about a day of work.  Just give thanks to Apple for taking a sick day off.

    That's why he is CEO - he is supposed to take responsibility for yet another screw-up at Apple.
