iPad Air, iOS 8 and random reboots with blue screen

iPad Air looks on 8.1 much more stable than the 8.0.2. Finally the iPad Air works as it should.

After restore, from Recovery mode, mine was good for a few days then started rebooting again (i have never had a blue screen). Upgraded to 8.1 last night and it rebooted several times within the first hour. I plan to do another recovery mode restore today and see what happens.

To those who blame Safari, i disagree as I rarely use Safari and have seen crashes after confirming Safari was not running.

After updating to iOS 8.1, no BSOD(Thank God😁). But I'll let you know if I exprience any! 🙂

No BSOD after updating to iOS 8.1

after recovery mode and restore as new, constant reboots while doing the iPad setup. HELLO, then choose wifi network, sign in to itunes, then crashes and reboots.

Same issue on non-retina iPad mini. trying IOS 8.1 and it reboots even more frequently.

LLike a number of others, I have upgraded to 8.1, from 8.02, and so far no BSOD with 4 hours use. Previously would have had at least 4 restarts. I hope it stays this way.

Upgraded and restored from backup. Still crashes with 8.1. Will try a fresh install (again). It just doesn't work 😠

I am very happy. Not a single restart in 8 hours.. I know the patter, tried provoking BSOD but iOS 8.1 has solved it as apple promised. I was planning clean install but later thought first try OTA, if it doesn't work I wud recover.

but it worked completely fine..

unfortunately few guys still hv issues.

my observation so far:

• OTA update seems to solve this issue completely.
• Restore after updating to 8.1 is not working...

so,

• perform update OTA (u wil need 2.3 gb free space to update)
• if doing a clean install, follow process for recovery mode, download clean 8.1 from apple through iTunes and update. BUT DONT restore from backup. it seems to screw it up again... just have a clean install of all apps.

Bo boivie... If ios 8.1 didn't solve it for you... I would recommend taking it to the apple service centre and asking for a replacement... Remember BSOD can also be triggered due to hardware issues... have it checked... It's not worth breaking your head further with restores...

for me on both my devices iphone and iPad air... Ios 8.1 has solved the blue screen crashes... Both updated over the air... 100mb download...

BBravo...since I updated to iOS 8.1 the random restart issues are gone. But it is only 24 hours. I played games and did a lot of browsing without restarts. Thank God.

I'm now stuck in Recovery mode getting an 4005 error when I try to restore. It may well be that something is wrong with my particular iPad

Ive been having this exact problem. It's irritating, I'm now doing a restore.. im giving up. ive run out of options.

NNo more blue screen of death after upgrading to iOS 8.1

thank you apple 🙂

Same as Birju.

OTA update. No restore needed. No probs so far.
