iPad Air, iOS 8 and random reboots with blue screen
I Updated my iPad Air 16gb wifi model with iOS 8 yesterday and since then I am facing random reboots with blue screens. Is this a known issue or am I in trouble ?
Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
I Updated my iPad Air 16gb wifi model with iOS 8 yesterday and since then I am facing random reboots with blue screens. Is this a known issue or am I in trouble ?
Guys maybe this should help, all I did is turn off most of apps in Background App Refesh leaving the very essential once.
i just got off playing Real racing 3 and Asphalt 8 without any reboots
iOS 8 on iPad Air... Same spontaneous reboots. Seems to be random.
Wonder if it's connected to the fact that I can no longer do screen shots?
Facing same blue screen of death issues on my ipad mini retina. They happen randomly. Last one happened during skype call. hope they fix it soon.
After installing iOS 8 is randomly rebooting after a short blue screen too.

HI
I too have the same issue on my iPad Air, The device reboots randomly after the ios8 update.
This happens at least 4 to 5 times a day for the past 3 days.
Hoping for a fix asap.
thanks

After a fresh image update from .ipsw file... Before 2 days... I have not seen the issue again...
This could be temp fix option
Sent from my iPad
II'm having the same problem.... Tried restoring with backup and also setting up as new after restore
also tried resets... None of it works.... Hoping there is an update that fixes it soon as it is clearly affecting quite a few ppl....
was was planning on taking it to the apple service but I guess I will wait for an update first
I have iPad mini ratina.. BSOD happens once in a couple of hours after iOS 8... caution: don't try to restore with DFU mode... nothing works... i figured that it is something related to iCloud sync... If I switch off iCloud from iPad and use it, problem seems to be over... no BSOD... but than whats use of using iPad without iCloud.!!!
btw anyone noticed that all the complains are coming from iPad air or iPad mini retina (both running A7 64-bit chip)
is it related to A7? Yes.. Last year same BSOD issue surfaced with iPhone 5s & iOS 7... (again A7 chip) Iphone 5S screen keeps turing solid blue
after some research, I figured that its indeed 64 bit chip issue...
Apple might know about it as "64bits-backboardd-iCloud"
something called "backboardd" is causing kernel panic and hence this BSOD..
BSOD is 64 bit architecture issue and long known problem for windows machines... somehow i m surprised that apple is unable to fix this even after having issue last year with iOS 7 update... how can you pass on same bug in new iOS?
We all need to wait for a quick iOS 8.0.1 update in a couple of weeks.. till than learn to live with it because apple knows it and will fix this under "improvements and bug fixes"...
SSame here. iPad Air 32 GB showing BSOD after updating to iOS 8. About 5-6 times a day. Apple please fix this issue At the earliest.
It is very frustrating. Its getting hanged up and rebooting with blue screen. Please fix it. I am not able to perform any work on that.
Well the ipad air to me has been a flop, safari never did work correctly and ive been using mercury to get away from the refreshing tabs and no crashes. I actually waited a couple days to do a google search on ios8 fixes for ipad air and guess what - i found this thread. Ill stay on the ios7 thanks. Its been almost a year and im considering taking this in and getting a new one to sell. Ios6 was solid, i have two ipads still on it and zero issues.
Same issue here.
In fact it occurred on my first IPad Air which got locked into a reboot cycle shortly after upgrading - requiring a replacement from the Apple Store.
Now same issues with IOS 8 on my replacement Ipad...
Had two more BSOD in the last 3 hours of use on my iPad Air.....just put this problem out on the Twitter wire as well.
Theres a BSOD for iOS ?, Interesting...
But it probably means that your device is running low on memory (not space).
Please view this article and see if that helps: iOS: Force an app to close

YOur funny. Look at the logs on your air if you have one, its full of memory full errors, thats the problem there is not enough ram memory for these 64bit proc
