Hi,

If you get the dialer bug where tones are constantly playing, just remove
the phone app from App Switcher, this usually cures it.

It's a bug though that Apple should never have let through, like many of
them.  We'll be demoing that bug later today on our podcast.  It's easy to
reproduce.

All the best

Steve

Hi. I've been using IOS8 on my iPhone 5S and it's going well. There
seems to be a glitch in the appstore where double tapping the purchase
button doesn't always work. I love the new keyboard which has improved
my typing speed with suggested words and auto completion. I couldn't
get Fleksy to work for me as it only funtioned properly when Voiceover
was turned off.  I've had problems with the dialing keybpad where dial
tones were constantly played and I had to restart the phone.
