This is an article that came out on September 8, 2010 introducing Apple to release the iOS 4.1 update for its iPhone and iPod Touch. Apple rushed the iPhone to the public shortly after the Sprint Evo came out with two dozen security vulnerabilities rated as being critical. This also happened with the first ever in the firm’s FaceTime video calling software.
Apple iPhone and iPod Touch users need to download this update with between 308MB and 590MB in size depending on the destination device, hit Apple's download servers shortly after 1 p.m. ET on Wednesday and downloaded iOS 4.1 without problems.
The iOS 4.1 was supposed to update and fix the problems the iOS 4.0 users were complaining about like the ever since the day it came out on June 21, 2010.-- ranging from "high dynamic range" (HDR) photography to the Apple's Game Center multi-player online network. People, who have the older iPhone 3 G, have flooded Apple's support forum with complaints of degraded performance since they upgraded to iOS 4.0. Other problems were supposed to be fixed like with Bluetooth connectivity and the iPhone's proximity sensor. The issue was that the sensor didn't deactivate the touch screen when the smartphone was held up to their faces. This would cause dropped calls, or muted their calls, and "face-dialed" numbers.
Apple also had difficulties with the FaceTime calls where the call could be redirected from the bug it had, Apple said. Not only did they have problems with the iOS with the WebKit open source browser which supports the Safari on the mobile version it also had difficulties on desktops with Google’s Chrome browser.
Apple’s Aaron Sigel reported the system should be fixed with the iOS 4.1 upgrade to the iPhone 4, 3GS and 3G, as well as the iPod Touches introduced in 2008, 2009. Unfortunately, the oldest of Apple's iPhone and iPod Touch don’t support iOS 4 upgrade.
The article reports Apple requires users to download iOS 4.1 to their Windows PC or Mac using iTunes, then sync their iPod Touches or iPhones to the machine to install the upgrade.
