The system is iOS. v. 1.12.0
Same here. Everyone said squid can spawn in any ocean biome, so I started a massiv farm around my icy base. I was wondering beforhand, because I never ever saw any squid around my base. So I got a bad feeling and tested 1 of 9 (Frozen Ocean Biomes)-chunks by building 1/9 of the spawning/collection-System. Still a big project, because you have to prevent the spawning of water mobs in an huge area (9 Chunks diameter). After clearing out all the left mobs manually and by changing game modes and prevent turtle spawning on beaches, too, I got a ton of fish spawns and zero squid spawns so far. Perhaps it has something to do with bubble culumns, but I'm pretty sure squids are able to spawn in it, like cod und salmon. So yeah. It's a another bug.
I noticed that my trading hall (screenshot given) lost its function.
I‘m worried that my librarians lost their trades, but can not confirm it yet, like Arnold did above. I guess I have to craft some beds.🙂
Well, I’m a little bit disappointed. If I had the knowledge beforehand... I had a stockpile of books by now. Well, rebuilding after a major update is kind of fun and challenging. But losing beloved villagers after hours and hours of breeding... A shame.
After two weeks of playing, I recommend the usage of the teleport command (https://www.digminecraft.com/game_commands/tp_command.php) to free yourself. No further bugs. Everything is normal, except I will never trust an end portal ever again.🙂
Follow these steps:
(get a realm)
reupload the world into a realm
try to join over and over again until success
toggle cheats on
using the teleport command while trying to remeber the dircetion of the portal you entered to get back to the main island (f.e. in my case relocate 20 blocks south)
export your world
(get rid of the realm)
Note: There were still some issues rendering the area properly. I managed to leave the end. No bugs until now. I was able to revisit the end without lag. It is a great advice to never use an end portal again, unless you have a backup of your world.
@mega spurd Perhaps you can add this workaround above. It is a smooth way, because you don’t lose your stuff, only your achivments.

Well, a better solution without killing yourself is following:
If you are able to load your world via the upload to a realm-trick, you can free yourself by using the teleport command: https://www.digminecraft.com/game_commands/tp_command.php
If you remeber the direction of your end portal correctly, you have a chance of landing on the main end island, if you shift your destination by a few dozen blocks.
Of cause you loose all all your achivements, but you got your world back without dying and lossing your stuff.
Hi guys,
there are plenty of good videos out there explaining the circular spawn rules. One big issue is the accumulation of mobs in the transition zone. Therefore mobs in the spawning/despawning area are able to move a few blocks away from you and are outside of the spawning/despawning zone. The accumulation lowers the spawn rate inside the zone, which can result in almost no spawns around you. Especially a problem if you work in a small area, which you often do, because you want to build something at a given location. This is a design failure and isn’t easy to fix, unless you redo the hole spawn system again.
A possible workaround is to switch the game mode to friendly now and then to clear the map of hostile mobs like drowned.
Here some screenshots from my guardian farm, where I worked dozen of hours to find a ring of hundreds of drowned outside in the ocean.
Well it worked for me 😃 reupload into a realm, try to join, using the teleport command (relocate 20 blocks south back to the main island), export. There were still some issues rendering the area properly. I managed to leave the end. No bugs until now. Im able to revisit the end without lag. Wish me luck.

@Auldrick
Again thank you for your reply. And your little dive into the devs point of view. I discovered several other bugs, e.g. the health regeneration doesn't work. I'm kind of amazed, that it is possible for a savegame (or a piece of software in general) to fall apart so tremendously, despite only using the oppurtunities that the game provides (no mods, datapacks). It's like an accident you have to look on.
I don't care about achivements. So I will give it a try by using commands. I have several versions of my world by now, one which is very "bare" right after getting stucked. I will copy it again and work with this one.
I also like your elegant idea of deleting chunks. But using some kind of a backup extractor to access my iOS-files, transfer it, edit it, transfer it back and load it properly is kind of a long way to go with many unforeseen problems. I don't want to go down that path right now.
Well of course I tried to figure it out. I’m a little restless. So breaking blocks still gives a red stone signal. So they have to disappear afterwards in the process of breaking.
And if you place a shulker box it duplicates, cause it remains in my inventory while showing off in the world. So the game is a little less broken🤨 I can duplicate all the stuff I have already in a shulker box.
@auldrick A new approach. If I invest another hour or so to reload my world again via the realm trick, still trapped. Can I use commands to free me? For example set my position to somewhere save? Can you confirm there is any way to use commands to solve the issue?
Does anyone after rescuing the world (in my case via the realm trick) with entities dont appearing at all? (Except of throwing your stuff out of the inventory)? So my game is still broken...
Thank you for your reply. As I described, I managed to get out using the realm trick. After deciding to give my world a try, because a fix isn’t coming soon, I figured out that the world is still unplayable. If you break stuff or slay mobs, no enteties appear. But you can still throw stuff. Perhaps there is still a rendering issue with enteties you might check. God knows what else is broken, too. It is kind of ironic after all the trying to get the world back that it turned into a museum. Perhaps it is for the better to bury Minecraft for ever. I don’t get the feeling someone cares. Yeah pandas are cute, but what about a stable game with proper mechanics? But this doesn’t belong here.
You lucky guys didn’t leave the game while stucked. Otherwise it is possible to break your save game. A literally game breaking bug should be something for a hot fix.
There is a fix coming. Honestly mojang should inform and warn us to not use end portals at all till this has been fixed. I can not understand why this issue is so low prioritiezed to get fixed, as I understood, at the earliest with the next major update. Or why it happend at all with the amount of beta testing prior 1.9.
And Dont be foolish to use an end portal until it is fixed.
And don’t be foolish to use an end portal again, until the issue is fixed.
BTW: 41647 is almost the same issue. There is a fix coming.
While waiting I post a workaround here, too.
For all others the trick with the realm is working for IOS. Should be mentioned or pinned under possible workarounds.
If you got a broken save game upload it into the realm, join the realm, switch to hard mode, die because of starvation (jumping may make it faster due random damage from blocks), respawn, exit realm, download world out of the realm. Voila! If you have loading issues while dealing with the corrupted save, especially while joining the realm, try over and over again, even with the very first step. I tried for an hour.
And if you are a lucky one with an ender pearl left and don’t wanna loose your stuff, you can try to get out and if failing try it over and over again, too. I said good bye to my gear. (Sadly the full armour and trident, pick and so on, are not the worsed, my 300 rockets are, so hard to get gun powder)
Glad to here that there is a fix in the (near?) future coming. Does it mean that the already broken save games / portals going to be unbroken again? Do I die and lose my stuff anyway?

Please stop deleting stuff. It's flooding my Inbox. ⚠️
Hi Silentw.,
i build your squid farm and followed your advice to place it in icy biomes near coast. Unfortunately there is perhaps a bug, that prevent spawning in at least one biome called „frozen ocean“ (https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCPE-47591). It took me some weeks to set up the farm... so can you write down a comment on your video to warn others? Or perhaps you can confirm this bug in a testing world. I’m playing on iOS. So there not really any options to set up a map for that purpose. Thx.
