CNET News - Tuesday, October 3, 2017 at 3:35 PM Apple update for iOS addresses iPhone 8 crackling noise - CNET Apple's latest iOS update addresses a bug that affects some phone calls on the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus. Gabriel Sama/CNET Apple released an update to its iOS mobile operating system on Tuesday to correct a handful of bugs, including a fix to eliminate a disruptive sound that some iPhone 8 users are experiencing through their earpieces during phone calls. Not long after the iPhone debuted last month, users began complaining in online forums of hearing a "crackling" or "static" sound that disrupts the audio when they make calls. The issue appeared to affect both the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus on different carriers and in different parts of the world. The release of iOS 11.0.2 on Tuesday should correct that issue, as well as a photo issue and an email bug. From the release notes: - Fixes an issue where crackling sounds may occur during calls for a small number of iPhone 8 and 8 Plus devices - Addresses an issue that could cause some photos to become hidden - Fixes an issue where attachments in S/MIME encrypted emails would not open The update comes a week after Apple released iOS 11.0.2 and two weeks after the release of iOS 11. Apple didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. Solving for XX: The industry seeks to overcome outdated ideas about "women in tech."
