Can I revert back to iOS 5.0 on my iPhone 4S?

I have been using the Sprint version of the 4S since the day it was released and never seemed to have an issue with battery life.  However, after downloading the iOS 5.01, my battery life seems to be markedly diminished.  Thus, is there a way to revert back to iOS 5.0 until Apple has a chance to better understand what went wrong with 5.01?

No, and don't be tempted to hack the phone to do so.  Not only would downgrading not help, but you may never be able to update again (as well as trash your warranty).

  • How can I revert back to IOS 4.5.5 from 5.1.1 on my 3GS?

    When using the Network this either wifi or other, the phone blanks out with a black srceen with an apple icon. I have to plug it in and let it set for a while for the mail screen to come back on. This has happened ever since I updated to IOS 5.1.1. I need to revert back to IOS 4.3.5. I need to know how to accomplish this.

    There is no supported method of reverting to a previous version of iOS.
    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • Can I Revert Back To 2.0.1 On The iPhone Or Will I Lose All My Info?

    Hey, so maybe you all have read my last rant on how bad 2.0.2 screwed up my iPhone's web, 3G, and basically every other capability of the iPhone. Anyway, I was wondering if it was possible to revert back to 2.0.1? Will I lose my music, apps (I only have Facebook and that one was free so not worried there), contacts, calendars, etc..? I have all my calendar and contacts backed up to my computer but my music was all taken from burned CDs no longer on my computer's hard drive. Will I have to load all that music back on if I do a reset of my phone?
    Any help would be great!

    You don't "have" to. I have two new iPhone 5 that are prompting me to upgrade to 6.0.2. They are running the "out of the box" iOS  (6.0.1) and I will not update them until 6.1 is released.

  • How can I revert back to iOS 5 after upgrading to ios6

    Can I Uninstall ios6 and reinstall ios5

    While I see no reason this discussion should be prohibited as the previous poster indicated, I will retract the link I provided earlier. Although it does not involve jailbreaking, further investigation suggests the method given there won't work.
    Unless anyone's come up with a better idea, looks like you might have to wait till they sort out the problems with youtube, maps and so on - or buy an Nexus 7...

  • I updated to new ios and now it is not syncing properly.  How can i revert back to the previous installed version?

    I updated to new ios and now it is not syncing properly.  New songs are not showing up on the ipod display but when I view the device on my computer, they are in the playlist but there is a dashed circle beside the missing songs.  It previously synced perfectly before the IOS update.  How can i revert back to the previous installed version?

    Downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple.
    Try:

  • How do I revert back to IOS 10.8 on my 27" iMac?  Since I upgraded to 10.9 on Monday I am unable to use my buttons in the App Store window, notes or ibook window.

    How do I revert back to IOS 10.8 on my 27" iMac intel version?  Since I upgraded to 10.9 on Monday I am unable to use my mouse buttons in the App Store window, notes or ibook windows.  It works everywhere elese but not in any Apple application system windows.

    I'll try it. I don't have much confidence in it actually working since I'm having the same issue with all mouses (Bluetooth and wired) and my Bamboo Create.
    Can you also tell me how to revert back to IOS 10.8 in case resetting mouse preferences do not work?  I have already gone back and restored my system to before the up grade but it didn't restore the IOS system.

    All we can say in this Apple forum is that downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple.

  • How can I revert back to version 5.1 from 6.1. Bluetooth support told me that version 6.1 is not supported. I highly doubt it. My voice recognition reconizes " Call my wife command".

    I just bought a new car. Hyundia Hybrid. My bluetooth is not Reconizing my command to call a contact. I've been back to the dealer and no luck. When speaking to Bluetooth support directly he doesn't see Version 6.1. and suggested going back to Version 5.1 which is documented to be compatable with my Iphone 4s.
    I doubt it because  voice recognition takes the command " Call  Wife" Can I revert back to 5.1 without clearing my phone back to origional settings?

    I'm sorry, but Apple does not provide a downgrade path for iOS. Because downgrading is unsupported by Apple we cannot discuss it on these forums, but you can use Google to find information on how to install an older version of iOS on any iDevice.

  • Please change the view in the top sites, the 6.1 upgrade has reverted back to a plane two dimensional view, which is a little plain. Can I revert back to an older version via my time capsule save?

    Please change the view in the top sites, the 6.1 upgrade has reverted back to a plain two-dimensional view, which is a little dated. Can I revert back to an older version via my time capsule save? C'mon Apple upgrades supposed to leap into the future not the past. :-(

  • Ever since the most recent firefox update, every time I try to download anything firefox stops responding and will not do anything until I restart it. Can I revert back to a previous version, or is there a fix for it?

    Every time I try to download anything firefox stops responding and will not do anything until I restart it. Can I revert back to a previous version, or is there a fix for it? When I restart firefox, then the download continues and all is well until I try to download something new (which I do quite often).

    You may well find this article of interest and help in sorting out your problems: [[Installing a previous version of Firefox]] The article does contain a link for previous versions, but also points out other troubleshooting advice that may be more appropriate in some instances.
    Another useful article is [[Basic Troubleshooting]]
    I hope you sort out your problems either by downgrading or finding the cause of the problem.

  • My Adobe Creative Suite 6 (I guess student edition) expired HELP! Can I revert back to CS5??

    Can I revert back to CS5?? (I have a comic deadline to make.)
    I know 5 is registered here on the site. It was a digital copy. I looked at my old laptop. (3 years old or so.) and noticed 5 on there. I can still use it. Some how my CS6 just up and quit working. Which I thought was funny considering I bought it the same way I bought my CS5. I am working on two comic series of my own that are going to be published as E-books and physical books and need some advice.
    I am left without Illustrator to use and I was right in the middle of working on all my character concept art to get trademarked.
    ( I can't afford the 357 upgrade to "re-open:" CS6 so I am left without anything to work on. All of my Illustrator files are also JPEG so i can view them all, but I was in the middle of new artwork when my CS6 decided to become a trial and I got locked out once the "Trial Period" ended.
    I am a legally blind Cartoonist and Comic Artist and these series are my first real big projects that are getting published. I really don't want to have this process stopped for any longer than it has been. It's been almost a month since I was able to draw. (I can draw on paper, but with my eyesight Adobe Creative suite is perfect for me and causes less strain on my eyes.) It's my preferred platform to work on as far as drawing.
    Hope somebody can help.
    (I just got married so I am low on funds at the moment. This project is my baby and I do not want to leave it unattended to for so long.)

    STEP 1:
    FOUND MY PROBLEM (or half of it.)
    I went into my computer and then program files.
    I found that EVERY SINGLE TIME I click any of the Adobe Applications that say (64 Bit) they give me that error message I showed you in an above post.
    STEP 2:
    I clicked Adobe in program files.
    STEP 3:
    I can SUCCESSFULLY open any of my Adobe Apps that are not (64 bit)
    It turns out all of my desktop shortcuts of my adobe apps were all coincidentally 64 bit ones that don't work.
    SO- in conclusion I think I have partly solved my problem.
    I replaced all of my app shortcuts with the normal program files and NOT the 64 bit ones. BUT- I am worried....aren't the 64 bit versions of ANY apps you buy important?
    I do feel worried since my WINDOWS 7 PROFESSIONAL is a 64 bit OS. This would effect my programs correct?
    Feel free to use my story to help you solve other customers' stories. I would like my problem looked into, but I am only half as stressed now.
