Another Gold Master iOS version. The Cupertino, California-based Apple today released the iOS 4.2.1 GM seed (Build: 8C148). Like other GM seeds, this firmware is also meant for registered iOs apps developers only. The new GM version is available for all iOS 4.x devices, such as iPhone 4/3GS/3G, iPod Touch 4G/3G/2G, and iPad (Wifi+3G). Just a couple of days ago, Apple rolled out an updated version of iOS 4.2 GM to address the Wi-Fi connection issues for iPad. This is definitely a surprise move from the company as the tech world was expecting the final version of iOS 4.2 and not another GM seed. At the moment, it is not quite sure what was changed in iOS 4.2.1 gold master as compared to iOS 4.2 GM.
However, a reliable source of Macstories who has an inside connection within Apple confirmed that the company released the iOS 4.2.1 build internally last night to fix major Exchange and audio devices issues. These issues were also documented on the official Apple’s developer/support forums. The report also suggests that that the iPhone maker might release iOS 4.2.1 publicly next week, meaning, Apple might skip iOS 4.2 altogether.
