If you’re a T-Mobile subscriber with an iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, or iPhone SE, and you haven’t upgraded to iOS 10 just yet, hold off for a little while longer.

The tech company recommends their users to backup their devices before installing the iOS 10 update.

Scores of iPhone and iPad users reported problems and complained the new update had “bricked” their device.

Owners of iPhones, iPads and even some iPod touch devices will be able to get the update, which is expected to be made available at around 6pm United Kingdom time on 13 September. Those who still encounter such problematic scenarios might want to read the walkthrough below, where we show you the steps to revert to a previous, more stable variant of iOS.

A few features to be mentioned are, that Apple has revamped its apple music drastically making it very user friendly, and Apple has stopped the camera mode automatically killing any music recording from the device the moment it is opened. If that’s you, then you can go into Settings General About on your iOS device and you should get the fix.

Apple told Buzzfeed’s John Paczkowski: We experienced a brief issue with the software update process, affecting a small number of users during the first hour of availability.

What is your experience with iOS 10 so far? This upgrade is available to everyone, including iOS 10. If so, does this new update fix the problems? Here’s what you need to do.

iOS 10 is available now and works on the iPhone 5 and newer handsets. iPad Mini and newer models and the iPod touch 6th generation.
