Another New iOS 4.2 Gold Master Release – 4.2.1 (for developers)

There is a new iOS 4.2 Gold Master build available this afternoon from Apple (for registered developers) – iOS 4.2.1 GM seed.

This is a surprise. Generally there’s just a single gold master (GM) build before a final release of software. We’ve already seen two for iOS 4.2 – with the second one released last week said to address some WiFi issues that some users of the first GM build were experiencing. Now we’ve got a .1 release – so presumably this one is fixing some more issues that have been uncovered.

I’ve downloaded and installed this build just a few minutes ago, and so far I don’t see anything different. Please share in the comments if you’ve spotted anything new.

I have not tried this one yet, but I noticed that on the iOS 4.2 gm from last Friday, the app VLC works flawless now. Before it would stop after watching 10 min and crash.

Well that's good news. I still haven't seen anything new in it – but I'm assuming there are some fixes for issues I hadn't noticed.
