iOS 5.1 Finally Ready for Release

[Gregoris]

Hate to sound stupid but how do I go about this? Lol I've never updated an iPhone before. Is it available yet?

its not available yet but if you are on ios 5 then go into the settings > general and software update or you can plug your device into the computer and open itunes and it will notify you that there is a new update when it is available shortly

Sadly because I am on the beta, I have to wait till I get home and do a manual update

 

[Gregoris]

you are better off waiting any way because nothing from apple is working and the download failed half way through for me

 

[CliffyDontCare]

Same here lol

Agreed

Thats the spec for the update I've just done. I can't see any change at all other than single home button click now shows camera icon instead of double click.
