Q: Does ANYONE Have a Working iPad with 1000+ Apps after Updating to iOS 9.x?

Nov 1, 2015 3:59 AMby FLBeachComber,thanks for your non-helpful attitude which only make you look foolish
this has been documented with 2 Apple Senior Advisors who have been working on it for several months. My iTunes account has service mode turned on and Apple has loaded (or I should say attempted) to restore on a 9.x device. Image restores with no issues to 8.4.1,devices.
Have been to Apple genius Bar 4 Times. They felt the backup was bad til I proved that i could brick any virgin phone setting up as new if it was on iOS 9.x.
I Won (and thus lost)
Furthermore, their lead service is in the Apple Engineering Group and he has never seen anything like it
so take your attitude and stuff it!

I'm just curious as to why you would spend that much time on this? What are you trying to accomplish?
That's 25 40 hour working weeks. Six months. I would have given up a lot sooner.

If you have that many apps and folders on your iDevices, then you deserve to have devices that no longer work and completely bricked with NO solution in sight.
What are you trying to prove by doing this? iDevices are not full blown laptop or desktop computers.
These devices have limits. This will be the same for any mobile device.
And no one believes your 1000 hour baloney!

Nov 1, 2015 10:36 AMby FLBeachComber,Again, 8.4.1 worked fine under these conditions
I have worked every hour night and day on this since 9.x was released to solve this - as Apple Techs can attest from contact on phone, tests and emails all hours or fhe day and night.
Interesting that this "community" has now turned into trolls.

I asked a simple question about why you're trying to do this, what the goal is. Sometimes, if people understand what you're trying to do, they can approach things from a different angle and give you suggestions for paths you haven't considered.
However, when you start spouting nonsense like:
I have worked every hour night and day on this since 9.x was released to solve this
You lose a lot of credibility.
The fact that between the launch of iOS 9 and today, minus the 1000 hours you've spent on this "issue", you've only had 272 hours to sleep, eat, bathe and work may explain a lot.

Luckily I do not care what anyone here believes.
The only people that matter work for Apple and they know it is true.
Not what some trolls think on an Apple "Community" Forum.
You really know how to win friends and encourage people to help you!

Nov 1, 2015 11:02 AMby FLBeachComber,After your post, I have worked for another 6 hours, reloading iOS 9.0 from itunes on a 6s+ 128GB and installing 1100 apps while setup as a new device with no folders.
1002 installed (while this number is never the same, this is just when i tested it with a power cycle to test whether it was bricked.
Same results as above.
According to Apple, for years, You can install as many apps as you have memory for.
However, there was an issue widely reported that was only solved with 8.4.
It appears iOS 9.x broke the fix, although the end results are not the same. Pre 8.4 the device would just constantly reboot. Post 9.x the device turns into a "Zombie" where no apps can be deleted, updated, installed, backed up or restored.
