[GoldenChild]

I had done this yesterday as well.

Did it help? My CarPlay is working when I start my truck but wireless CarPlay disconnects randomly while using Waze or Apple Maps.

Have you tried offloading those apps to reinstall? This worked for me.

I jumped 😁

So far, things are seemingly smoother than 17.4.1.

That’s not going to happen in iOS 17.

I loathe photos today with b2. 13pm 256 (with only 128 used)

Took around 40 photos. iCloud was set to backup photos including via mobile data with no limits and I had good fast coverage, mostly of 5g .

1-2 hours later I went to look at the photos and could see them in the app but all were very blurry like low res thumbnails. (Even though the photo info showed they were full resolution)

I decided to reboot. After which the photos were nowhere to be seen either on phone or iCloud.

Needed to say I wasn’t happy

Not seen this before. Beta bug?

It reminds me of this although it's not beta specific (and I never experienced it):

New Photos Randomly Not Saving iOS 17 on iPhone 15 Pro Max

I'm not expecting any fixes from the forum, but putting this out in case others experience the issue. I took several photos yesterday throughout the day. At dinner, six photos in a row did not save. I noticed after the second attempt that it wasn't saving. I showed my wife and tried a few more...

What issues are you seeing with the files app?

What issues are you seeing with the files app?

Freeze constantly like its unresponsive and stays stuck on a screen after I close it.
If a third party app uses files then it won’t even give me access to my files on my iPhone or icloud.
Today my entire iPhone was frozen and I could only close it with lock screen and each time I unlocked it it went back to files and it was unresponsive I had to hard shut down the phone.

It seems like every few betas I get the return of the Eric Clapton > Apple Music that pops up playing when I put my device to sleep.

It returned today.

I don’t use AM and I don’t own any EC.

I doesn't matter if you use AM or not. Eric message is clear: "I will be there". And he is, indeed 😁

You could try to disable iCloud Drive in iCloud settings and see if it helps, then re-enable it after a reboot.

Do you have any other apps with Files integration that could be interfering? Like Dropbox, OneDrive etc? Files works really well for me, there must be a reason it's doing that.

This morning when I woke up I was unable to wake up my iPhone 14PM running 17.5ß2. I could hear the clicks and feel the vibrate. When I tried to vol-up vol-down sleep/wake the screen would not come on. After about 30 minutes or so, the screen finally came to life. I was asked if I intended to active the SOS mode. The phone was on the wireless charger all night. This has happened two other time on various iterations of iOS 17.

Well I had installed the GBA4Ios emulator but I removed it.

Anyone else having issues with CarPlay disconnecting?

Had this happen to me yesterday, but I chalked it up to my wireless CarPlay adapter. I unplugged it and plugged it back in and it reconnected.

This sounds like it might be a hardware issue.

Somehow, I think it may be related to the screen brightness setting. Next time this happens I will ask Siri to turn up the brightness.
