Ok, Ive got Ios7 but it wont activate. How do I activate!?!
Bah!
You don't, you have to restore it from a previously restored and fresh ios6 as I described above
Don't know about the folders but no the icon structure is still left to right, top to bottom
yep, I have exactly that, same with songs, all there but very few artists.

Yep got it thanks dude
No worries.. I've just put everything back to iOS 6 and my sim back into my S4.
Surprised me really but I think I might have made a semi permanent move to android. I used to yo yo between both with iOS as my base 80% of the time.. that appears to have switched over!
Plus I don't really want to ruin my experience of iOS 7 with buggy software, there are small issues all over the place.
For those mentioning that you have to do it from a restore...you don't.
I just did a back up, and shift clicked and updated. The reason for this was that the phone is already activated.
It just pushes the update through with no problems....any particular reason why people are stating that you need to restore it back to a clean version of iOS 6.1.4?
Also followed the same process for my touch and it worked fine...

Best practice I think.
Yes, because in some cases you most certainly do need to do it that way, I did exactly what you said and I ended up with a phone that couldn't be activated, it wouldn't get past the welcome screen.
Then I did it the way I said (after reading a guide online explaining how to bypass activation) and it worked.
Most do, some don't. Its down to the app developers to update their apps to work with iOS 7 which is the whole reason why Apple beta test it like this

Not having problems here. Can send iMessages fine.
Working fine here as is everything else. Not sure about the new look but maybe it's growing on me. Seems quite dependant on the chosen wallpaper, looks good with some not so with others. Control centre is a great addition.
Only downside is the battery life at the moment and the double click still needed to get to multi tasking. Wish they could find some other way to do that!
