Re: Yeah, but ...

Clean upgrade or did you keep all your data and settings?

Seems to me that Apple's QA and dev team don't use "real world" devices during their development and testing.

Only takes a rogue app or two to screw things up.

Re: Yeah, but ...

I have IOS 8.1 on my iPhone 5 and I get the same battery performance as I did with IOS 7.

Apple did replace my battery for free last month though - there is a battery replacement program for some iPhone 5s that have faulty batteries - find the page here: https://www.apple.com/uk/support/iphone5-battery/.

Re: Hmmm...

If you actually read some of the more sane posts on the subject, you might have grasped that TRIM is not developed to a common standard. What might be ok for a Samsung SSD is not Ok for say a Crucial one.

It is a venerable minefield.

Why try to 'trim' and SSD when you might do more harm than good. Then the outcry about 'Apple borking my SSH' would be far larger than this. The lawsuits would start flying in all directions as well. Better safe than sorry eh?

Re: Hmmm…

WonkoTheSane, Apple has never supported TRIM on third-party SSDs. Third-party SSD support on OS X has only been provided by third parties, typically by binary edits of the Apple driver to remove its Apple-only check. The change in Yosemite to refuse to load modified Apple drivers can be seen as either bug (to prevent the TRIM hack) or feature (to prevent unintended driver changes from being executed). My understanding is that this Yosemite change can be undone with a change to a NVRAM setting, restoring the pre-Yosemite behavior, if the TRIM hack is deemed more important than preventing the execution of modified Apple drivers.

Re: Hmmm...

Is the loss of TRIM really a big deal these days? With modern SSDs and their advanced garbage collection routines I'd have thought that the importance of TRIM is not what it was 2 or 3 years ago.

To put this into context we're running a number of RAID 5 systems with modern SSDs built purely for performance. As you probably know TRIM commands can't be issued on RAIDed SSDs, or at least to my knowledge not, and everything is running along tickety boo - no noticeable slow down at all, even though by my calculations would suggest that the SSDs in one of our RAIDs must have been overwritten 5 times now.

Admittedly I'm running a 1TB crucial 550 on my home iMac with TRIM artificially enabled, but I am wondering if TRIM is really necessary - especially as I borked the data transfer first time round, meaning that I've already overwritten the SSD once without TRIM being enabled, and everything still seems to run like a rocket.

To that end I'm curious as to what you guys think regarding TRIM and its applicability these days

Re: All well and good.

No, they didn't. Apparently you didn't comprehend the article you linked. If you want to use two factor authentication, make sure communication to the second factor isn't forwarded to the first!

As that article points out, the situation is even worse for Google Voice if you aren't using two factor correctly. Security is hard. Making more advanced security like two factor available at the same time you provide convenience features like making SMS available on multiple devices a recipe for people to think they're protected when they aren't.

Now maybe Apple and Google need to be smarter and not allow (or at least warn people about) the combination of SMS forwarding and two factor authentication...

Re: Still Broken :-(

Would these 'undeletable' messages be in a GMail account by any chance?

Re: Brand new iPhone 6 here, with all the latest software

If it's brand new you have 90 days of full support from Apple. Simply call them or book a genius appointment, take it in and someone will fix it for you. Apple are not a company that just takes your money then doesn't want to know.
