Back in May we reported that Apple was working on an iOS 7.1.2 release to address some issues, including the iMessage and Mail attachment bugs.

Now more information has surfaced regarding iOS 7.1.2, and it looks like the update will bring fixes for mail, Lock Screen and iBeacon issues. According to sources, 7.1.2 does indeed fix the email attachment encryption issue as well as another bug impacting email downloads. There will also be a fix for a lock screen bug that can allow users access to limited apps in certain circumstances. Finally, 7.1.2 will be bringing improvements to iBeacon connectivity and a bug fix that addresses data transfer with third-party accessories.

The sources did not mention anything about the iMessage bug that impacts users when switching devices, but it is likely that Apple quietly included that fix in the build.

Apple has begun seeding iOS 7.1.2 build 11D257 to carrier partners and has requested them to sign off on the update by Friday, June 27, which hints towards a public release following that date. iOS 7.1.2 will likely be the last iOS 7 release until iOS 8 lands this fall.

I really want to know when they are going to fix the annoying status bar appearing when you close apps! It happens on more than just my phone, so it mustn't be a setting but a bug.

On the same day they announced that eMail attachments are not encrypted we got a fix in Cydia for us jail breakers, it's taking Apple like 2 month to make such an easy fix.

They were busy with everything else. They really do try compared to copying wannabes, they won't simply miss like that normally.

how to disable that crap from downloading on ? and downgrade to 6.1.3?

I'm guessing you meant upgrading, go to "settings" then "iTunes & App Store" and turn off "Updates" that will stop automatic upgrades.

Am I the only one experiencing app crashes. Every now and then it happens but that's only on 2-3 apps I am using. Not much of a problem, but other than that, everything's fine for me currently.

System apps or 3rd party? Facebook messanger tends to crash for me as well, but they update it every week anyway..
