After installing iOS 6 battery life is awful on iPhone 4S

Hello All,
I just want to share a problem I am having with my iphone 4s. After installing iOS 6.0.1 on it, the battery life is very bad, I could probably say unacceptable, after fully charging it, it would not last even 12 hours before the battery runs out and also i have noticed that the battery or back of the phone gets hot, I would say hotter than before I did the upgrade. I am just wondering if anyone could share some thoughts. I hope Apple comes out with a fix to this issue because I have noticed that a lot of people are having this problem.
Thank you

Hmmm...Apple doesn't support downgrading. If true you must have jailbroken your phone rather than properly repair the problem.

  • After installing lion, battery life cut by 75% and browser speed slowed to a crawl

    My Mac Book Pro was working perfectly fine until I installed Lion.  Now my battery life has been cut but a least 75% (only lasts about 45 minutes on a full charge) and it has also affected the speed of my browser.
    Can anyone help?

    There is a 190 page thread discussing the battery life and health issues assocaited with ML that you will find in this forum located here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4135250?start=0&tstart=0 .  Some people have had some success in installing the ML 10.8.2 combo pack over their 10.8.2 instance.  Some have had success in performing a clean install.  Others still have problem, and others have moved back to Lion or SL.  In your posting, are you saying you've installed Lion or Mountain Lion?  I'm assuming that latter.  I've recently reverted back to Lion until I have more confidence that Apple has tackled the issue.

  • HT4623 why am i experiencing short battey life after installing ios 7?

    why am i experiencing short battey life with my IPad after installing ios 7 1 ?

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery

    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

    In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.

  • Why after installing iOS 7 my iPad started to reboot by itself, my battery lost autonomy and the iPad got slowwwwwwer?

    Why after installing iOS 7 my iPad started to reboot by itself, my battery lost autonomy and the iPad got slowwwwwwer?

    For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).

  • After installing iOS 6 update my ipod touch 5G doesn't work anymore

    after installing iOS 6 update my ipod touch 5G doesn't work anymore. Can anybody help me? Please!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My ipad 2 won't hold a charge after installing ios 7

    I use the authentic Apple charger and my ipad 2 won't hold a charge after installing ios 7. What is the fix for this miserable wasteful upgrade that made all of our iPads unusable ! I Shut off location, turned off  brightness, shut down and  took off apps.  WHAT NOW for my iPad ?

    Batteries eventually fail, and it sounds like that's happened with your iPad. You'll need to take or send it Apple to get the battery replaced. See:

  • Volume buttons don't work after installing ios 7.0.4

    I have an Iphone 4 (MC603B/A) and after installing IOS 7.0.4 the volume buttons and the mute switch don't work. Also, if I receive a call or a message I don't get any sound.
    There is no sound either if I play a video. At the same time, the alarm does work and the voice in the GPS works also.
    Any ideas on how to resolve this issue?

    After installing iOS 8 update on Iphone 5C, I can't open any files in my emails. Why?

    Hello Rach Ryan
    First I would try closing the app from multitasking and then launching it again. To do that, double tap the Home button and then swipe up on the app to close it completely. If that does not work, then I would restart your iPhone.

    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

  • After installing IOS 6 on my iphone 4, why is my camera taking purple pictures?

    Immediately after installing IOS 6 on my iphone 4 on 9/22/12, when I attempt to use any of my phone apps, everything is colored in purple tint (see attached image). This includes taking video as well. If I flip the camera to the self facing camera, the purple goes away. This only happens on the front facing camera. I've tried googling this issue and cannot find anyone else complaining about this. Any ideas???

    So, now I'm starting to feel like I'm the one and only lucky SOB to have this purple issue. For anyone who reads this, some more detail. Since posting this thread, I did a full reset from my iphone and that did not resolve the issue. Then, last night I did a full system restore from itunes which took about 4 hours and that didn't solve it either.
    After all this, I started thinking that perhaps there's something wrong with the lens hardware but yesterday for approx 3 full seconds, the camera was normal then there was a stutter and it went purple again. Sounds like a software issue, so I'm really baffled why a system restore wouldn't cure this. Ugh!

  • After installing IOS 6.1, how do I get items in "Music" to stop moving?

    After installing IOS 6.1, how do I get items in "Music" to stop moving?

    I was having this same issue.  I went into Settings -> iCloud and turned the Notes sync ON (which when I tried to do previously, i was prompted to create an iCloud email address which I already had).  Once I turned that on, I went to Settings ->Notes and I now see a "Default Account" selection which is set to iCloud.  Now all of my new notes save on the phone and on the cloud.  This doesn't fix the fact that I appear to have forever LOST all the notes I had before iOS6.1.  Apple, we're still waiting for a response???

    I would really like to know how you managed to do that seeing as how the MBP is not capable of running iOS
    iOS is only for mobile devices such as iPhones, iPads and iPods
    The MBP uses OS X instead
