Jun 30, 2025 7:03 PM

Apple released iOS 8.0.1 update yesterday to fix iOS 8 bugs. However, as it turned out the iterative build introduces more problems than solving the previous ones. A huge number of iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus users reported having no cellular reception and inability to use Touch ID. While it may seem that Apple isn't doing anything about this incessant problem of troubling updates, a new knowledge base document reveals that Apple is readying iOS 8.0.2 for release.

We have a workaround for you if you have an iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus and you lost cellular service and Touch ID functionality today after updating to iOS 8.0.1. You can reinstall iOS 8 through iTunes by following the instructions below. We are also preparing iOS 8.0.2 with a fix for the issue, and will release it as soon as it’s ready in the next few days. -Apple.

Apple had released the iOS 8.0.1update to users with the following bugs and changes:

Fixes a bug so HealthKit apps can now be made available on the App StoreAddresses an issue where 3rd party keyboards could become deselected when a user enters their passcodeFixes an issue that prevented some apps from accessing photos from the Photo LibraryImproves the reliability of the Reachability feature on the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 PlusFixes an issue that could cause unexpected cellular data usage when receiving SMS/MMS messagesBetter support of Ask To Buy for Family Sharing for In-App PurchasesFixes an issue where ringtones were sometimes not restored from iCloud backupsFixes a bug that prevented uploading photos and videos from Safari

Hope you have already downgraded to iOS 8 manually and fixed the issues. We are hoping that the next update is properly tested out and solves the issues rather than bringing in the new bugs.
