Ios 7.1 problems with iphone 4s

Since I did the update to IOS 7.1 when I want to close down applications I try double clicking the home key so that I can swipe them closed, however it doesn't always work immediately. My IPhone 4S is about 2 years old so not sure if it is the phone or the update. Subsequently this is going to have a huge drain on my battery. Anyone else having this issue? Ideas how to fix?

Can you post a screenshot?
Did you try a
Reset: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Note: You will not lose any data

IOS 8 battery problem with iphone 4s

I installed IOS 8 over the weekend on my iphone 4S. My phone is completely dead because of the battery drain to fast. for example it was 100% fully charged, left alone for 20 min later (without using it), the power went down to 72% . or went to bed power at 85%, the phone went dead next morning. another occasion: left the house at 65% power, it went dead after 2 hrs WITHOUT A SINGLE USE. I went to the Setting so many times to see anything that unusual, I turned of: Background App Refresh, Turned off Location Services (each App too), etc.. I done everything I can, still the battery draining too fast. Apple what have you done, this is causing so much grief !!!! I need help !!!! another problem, when I am in an App ( i.e. CNN) to see the news with video. I see the video, but no VOLUME. looks like the volume button is disabled nothing there.

This sounds as if an app keeps running in the background although you don't use it or allowed it to use it in the background.
Did you already check Battery usage to see which app you didn't use much (or not at all) causes a major use in battery. See also this article and this one on iMore.
I've seen others who had background process off for e.g. Google Hangout and Skype but still had major battery usage since iOS8.
Please look also into the apps who are allowed to use 'Background refresh' and 'Push Notifications'.
I've had similar issues with another Dutch app called Scoupy after 6>iOS7 upgrade. I deleted the app and it resolved the battery drain. The app released an update (months later) which resolved the drain finally. It was however very hard in the previous versions to find out the app which caused the drain. In iOS8 that is much easier now.

Reception / Battery problems with iPhone 3GS after upgrading to iOS 4.2.1

There are major reception and battery problems with iPhone 3GS after upgrading to iOS 4.2.1.
I can not believe that Apple did not test this for major bugs like this one is.
I am a business user and can not effort to have bad reception. Apple wants to gain in the business clients... I never had this with my former BlackBerrys!
I need a reliable phone not a play thing like this is right now, it just needs it to work propely. And if a major bug like this comes along, fix it immediately. After the iPhone4 story, now this...incredible! Going back to my reliable BlackBerry! It just ain't reliable and takes forever to fix a problem.

I have the same issue after iOS 4.2.1 update. I am using iPhone 3GS officially unlocked by Apple. I tried using different SIM cards and both carriers show same problem when using phone in 3G mode. Phone falls back to EDGE mode showing 'E' from '3G' at start. I have reset the phone and rebooted several times and moved to different cell areas in the city just to verify the problem.
I had no such issues earlier. I also have Nokia E71 which shows full signal and has no such issues.
I have posted the bug on apple iphone feedback page. I hope they Apple will fix the problem and test the release properly on all models before releasing to public.

HT1222 Is anyone having problems with iPhone Bluetooth to BMW s since iOS 6.1

Is anyone having problems with iPhone Bluetooth to BMW s since iOS 6.1?

Yes. I had an iPhone 3G and when upgraded to 6.1 the bluetooth connectivity failed progressively and eventually the phone just wouldn't connect. I broke and reestablished the pairing am few times and each time it would work for a while then disconnect to the extent I thought the bluetooth hardware in the car was failing. I then got an iPhone 5 and the same issue remained. In the last few days I've paired an old Blackberry with the car kit to rule out the BMW hardware. Blackberry is fine so it has to be iOS incompatibility.

Ipad air using iOS 8.1.1 refuses to mirror or use airplay. Same problem with iPhone 5c.

I use an iPad Air to deliver keynote presentations via Airplay using Apple TV. Did this a few months ago no problems. Tried yesterday to deliver a presentation iPad refuses to mirror/airplay. Both are on same wifi - signal is good. Select tick box for airplay (mirroring tab is selected) but nothing happens! After barely a few seconds tick box jumps and selection is removed. Tried hundreds of times same result. Have tried powering down and re-staring all the equipment no joy. Restarted router no joy. Interesting to note have same problem with iPhone 5C (and 4S which is still on IOS 7). Any help gratefully received. Thank you.

By accident solved my own problem. Apple TV and iPad were working on the same wifi network, close to the router, with a strong signal. That signal is boosted to the far corners of the house via a network based on the Airport Extreme & Express units. Perversely Airplay & mirroring only works when picking up that weaker wifi signal via a different channel! Now to see if a similar solution works for the iPhones.

Same problem here with and I've done everything shy of a total reset which I also find unacceptable. This problem exists on all iMessage platforms (iPhone, iPad, and Mac) so I don't see how restoring my iPhone would help the problem.

Sir i have a problem with iphone its factory locked how to unlock

sir i have a problem with iphone its factory locked how to unlock

You have asked this question 3 times. Each time the answer being the same. ONLY, the original cellular provider can unlock the phone. However, if the phone has been previously hacked to provide unlocking, the fact that you have updated it has now re locked it. It is possible that it might never be ale to be properly unlocked.

iPhone warranty is not international. You will have to return your
iPhone to Saudi Arabia for repair/replacement. Either take it back
yourself or send to friend/relative for them to take to Apple. Apple
will not accept international shipments for repair nor will Apple
ship repaired/replaced iPhones out of the country where the repair
was done.
