Upgraded it on my 5S, went and killed the Touch ID too.

Skip this upgrade.

That's a farce if true. Heads should roll.

Updated on iPhone 6. Have no signal now.

I'm voting this one as 'worst iOS upgrade ever'.

It's true, Carrier is gone from settings.

It killed your signal and Touch ID? I thought it only affected 6 and Plus?

Lucky I cuaght this news before hitting the update button. What actually saved me was I hadn't got my phone connected the work wifi since updated to the 6

Saying no signal on mine, but I was wrong about the Touch ID, a restart sorted that.

To fix loss of cellular service

If you've already installed the update and are experiencing these issues, a potential fix has arisen. Reinstalling iOS 8.0.1 through iTunes (and not via the over-the-air software update) apparently restores both cell service and Touch ID functionality. But that solution does no good for iPhone owners without immediate access to a PC or Mac

This is why carriers generally vet OS releases. Pre- iOS anyway.

My guess something went wrong with the OTA installer on iOS 8. Still no excuse.

Apple should test this on thousands of devices before release.

Frankly the coupling of the OS with hardware is a mistake too. It makes the original OS buggy as it has to make a schedule. Then there needs to be a rushed update.

Bad day for Tim Cook.

Something off though. I thought the new iPhones were released with 8.0.1?

They really don't help themselves at times.

Frank Lee Midere · 24-09-2014 6:23pm

Update pulled.

8.0.1 out now
