For some strange reason there are few things apple products tackles inferior wrong date, and now users discovered the “doomsday date” for the iPhone.
(page3): it turns out that about a set date to 1 January 1970 and switch off the phone, waking the not to life again.
the bug applies to both iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch models with 64-bit processor and running the operating system iOS 8 or later. In practice, all i-gadgets of the iPhone 5S and until today.
Some users have reported that the mobile phone has come to life again after five hours, while for most experiments have not led to the mobile had to be replaced.
It is unclear why this failure, but one credible theory has with time zones to do, and that the date of 1 January 1970 means that an internal clock is set to less than zero, and this confuses and crashes the whole system, writes 9to5mac.com.
Now it’s obviously not a particularly relevant issue having to set the date 46 years back in time, but it is interesting that such a simple adjustment is able to make a gizmo to several thousand kroner useless.
Apple has over the years struggled a bit with the time change.
a few years ago stopped the alarm clock to work after the phone had changed from summer to winter – and the following year joined alarms to work when a passed New year.
in iOS 7 fails calendar functionality to handle daylight again.
and now it has been revealed a new issues are related to the time change.
It turns out now that the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus may have problems with battery measurement if you change the time zone – or if you set the clock manually.
According to Apple, this leads namely that your phone’s battery level indicator stops to refresh themselves. The consequence of this is in the phone may run out of power, even if the phone stubbornly claim that you have plenty of power left.
If you find that the battery indicator is no longer updating itself is Apple’s solution the good old: Restart your phone again.
