iPhone 3.1.2 update fixes some annoying bugs

Apple has released another iPhone software update, version 3.1.2, that offers bug fixes, but no flashy new features. You can get it now by plugging in your iPhone and clicking "Check for Updates" in iTunes. Here's Apple's list of what's fixed in this update:

  • Fixes bug that could cause occasional crash during video stream
Almost 250MB seems like a pretty big update for a few bug fixes, and it's hard to tell what other improvements might be going on behind the scenes. New versions of iPhone OS generally ruin jailbreaking, so you might want to avoid updating your jailbroken phone until you know there's a way to make it work under 3.1.2. According to iPhoneHacks, 3.1.2 also updates the carrier settings for US iPhone users who are on AT&T - no word yet on how this affects potential tethering hacks, but I'm guessing it breaks them.

You bounce around picking up gems and talking to the denizens of 'Level Upland'. Eventually you feel tired and head back to ...
