If you're a Line2 user, then you no longer need to worry about updating to iOS 4.2. In a recent email sent from Toktumi Line2 Support, the service has confirmed that Apple's recently released iOS 4.2.1 GM seed fixes the bug we were all so worried about. This means that it will now be safe for Line2 users to upgrade to iOS 4.2 when the software update hits iTunes. Here's what the email said:
We are thrilled that Apple fixed the bug in the GM-Seed version of iOS 4.2 that was causing Line2 some trouble. We sent out a warning email on Nov 17 stating that you should avoid upgrading to iOS 4.2 because it caused Line2 to keep ringing when answering an incoming call. Thanks to Apple fixing this iOS bug, Line2 has no known issues with iOS 4.2.1, the iOS version they released today to developers, so feel free to upgrade your device when it hits iTunes.When exactly iOS 4.2 will be released to the public is another issue altogether. The software update was expected to be released earlier this week, however Apple instead released iOS 4.2.1 to developers. This new Gold Master version of the iOS adds no new features, and simply fixes last minute bugs. So, while we're expecting iOS 4.2 to go live at some point next week, nobody is exactly sure. As always, we'll be reporting as soon as the update is released - so check back with us (or follow us on Twitter @AppAdvice) to stay up to date with iOS 4.2's progress.
