Apple has released the Gold Master version of iOS 4.1 to developers barely more than four weeks after the release of iOS 4.1 Beta 3. There have been a plethora of problems reported with iOS 4.0 and its incremental updates, but according to Steve Jobs today the following issues will be addressed in this new iOS release:
- Proximity sensor
- Bluetooth issues (muffled audio/connectivity)
- Slow performance issues on the iPhone 3G
There is no word on whether or not the update addresses the complaints about yellow tinged photos when using the rear camera on the iPhone 4.
Registered iOS developers can grab a copy of the new beta at developer.apple.com/iphone. The rest of you will have to wait until next week.
