Try going to settings > general > reset > reset network settings. Some people had wifi/ network issues during the betas and that helped.

Thank you, Fordman1981. It's faster now, with no stalling so far.

Good, jmc, ye shouldn't be have slow issues. I never use a beta version, so never experienced any issues at all. I've been using Mac since Mac Plus, '86, System 3.xx. I've been using OS X since it came out of beta, almost 15 years now on about 9 Macs - we have never had a single OS X System related issue! Not one. iOS for iPad, iPhone is also based on OS X.

I'm guessing that being sort of stuck in Apple's ecosystem is a deal killer for many, as well as the inflated prices.



What is it with the cutesy-poo names for mobile operating systems anyway?

I have no idea, but the names are stupid.

I know I'm in the minority here, but I wouldn't buy an Apple anything. While the devices are well build and their custtomer service is great, their closed ecosystem, non-expandable storage and lack of customization are deal breakers for me. Android KitKat and the new Lolipop are rated as high or higher than the current iOS and the HTC One (M8) is the higest rated phone on the currently market (including the iPhone 6). 10 best mobile phones in the world today | News | TechRadar

Contraty to what others would have you believe, Android is as secure as iOS, they are both based on Unix software........

Not even close 98% of all malware is on android devices. All this customization people speak of for "open source" android is one of the things makes them so vulnerable. I have the article that backs the 98% number somewhere too if the android lovers need proof too.

Jellybean is 4.2
KitKat is 4.4
Lollipop is 5.0

Very few devices are running Lollipop right now.

My tablet (Samsung Galaxy III) is Jellybean
My phone (new as of Wednesday) is an HTC and is on KitKat.

My wife has the iPad. She loves it. Obviously, I like the android environment. The nice thing for each of us is the ability to sync all of our devices. Photos I take with my tablet are almost instantly available on my phone, and vice versa.


Mine is reporting 4.1.1

This thread is of considerable interest since I知 contemplating getting an ipad air 2 or a Samsung Tab S. I have issues with BOTH, Apple痴 restrictions/storage/priority issues, Samsung (android) many which I have with the phone may or may not exist with a tablet all related to productivity.

I had ?till have?aptop issues, and that has forced me into using my Samsung S4 for allot of email and internet use. The good, I知 finding I like the phone, and thinking I like a decent size tablet even more, for the type of things I do now, mainly emails/internet browsing?orums like this one. The bad, any email (or forum response like this one here) of any substance?otta do on the laptop due to keyboard. BUT, I知 reading that with a keyboard dock (for lack of a better name) an ipad or tablet sort of solves these issues. Question?an anyone verify this is indeed true? From my reading almost certain I would require some type of keyboard.

Other issues. I致e experienced with the phone, and I realize it is not a tablet, but it is an Android device, and wonder how well a tablet handles these issues versus the phone::::

Printing?致e printed using Brother痴 iPrint. It works, but zero control on format etc?eally sucks. Need something better.
Email?sing Gmail. The android app does not have group capabilities, killer for me on forwarding. And when I do forward, it adds those stupid >>>> symbols, these problems do not exist on the laptop.
USB?nderstand Apple does not have?aybe the Samsung? Is it really needed?...thinking of camera card transfers.
Removable storage? have a 48gb micro card on the phone and it is FULL with pictures. I could NOT manipulate the pictures on the card using the phone, I formatted everything/folders/pictures on the laptop so the gallery wouldn稚 go nuts and make you scroll scroll scroll through pictures, never really finding them?hort of it, file/data manipulation on Android is not pretty?s it the same on tablets?
Office functions?...Although used seldom now?知 typing this into word to be pasted to the forum, and I do have a fair number of word docs and spreadsheets I still use.
This Samsung phone comes up with a slow charging use original charger?I AM using original charger, and from the internet this is a common problem with this phone (shades of the laptop issues)?nyone know if Samsung tablets have the same problem?

Hoping some of you have some of the answers. BTW, using CM security on phone and have no security issues that I am aware of.

And on edit...I wish this forum would handle paste from word docs better than what you see above, the ' in some words destroys it, along with multiple dots that I use as a 'pause' in what I'm saying.. I'll leave as is so you can see, I think you can read through it....but I find that aggravating.

I have an iPad and it's quite nice. Having said that, I would NEVER purchase an Apple product. The iPad came to me as a freebie.

My complaint is that Apple is pretty much a proprietary product - meaning everything comes from them through iTunes. That means you generally pay for the things you want. With Android devices - my cell phone is a Samsung Galaxy - free is the name of the game.
