My iPhone 4 (GSM) is terrible to use after iOS 7 update?

I was so excited for iOS 7 ... In fact, I checked for an available update every other second. After getting said update my phone was amazing at first (IT FELT LIKE A NEW PHONE)!
-Now I've started to notice that my keyboard will simply stop working leaving me not even wanting to text anymore.
-My favorite apps (Even those "optimized" for iOS 7 force close all the time).
-I will be using my iPhone and even though the battery is completely full the Apple logo will pop up unexpectedly (Kinda like how it does when it's booting up) and won't turn back on for like 5 minutes.
-Sometimes I'll lock my iPhone and the screen will refuse to turn on no matter what buttons I press so I'll have to put it in recovery mode which for some reason gets it to turn back on.
-My Facetime calls will end unexpectedly.
-My phone got super hot on iOS 6 (and now it gets even hotter on iOS 7) even when I'm not using it.
-Do not disturb will be DISABLED and my volume will be up all the way.. But I still won't hear that I am getting a call or message. Push notifications are enabled so I'm stumped on that one.
-My reception will legit go away and not come back forever even though I usually have all 5 bars on iOS 6.
-While dialing a call the other person will sound fine but they always tell me that I'm echoing and stuff.
-All of my favorite apps take 5 times longer to start up.. But don't waste any time to force close when they finally do start.
-My WiFi will disconnect all the time and makes me use A LOT of 3G data
-Even when I am on 3G knowingly my iPhone uses 10 times more data with regular everyday use. Browsing Facebook for 5 minutes uses just over half a gigabyte.
-Most of the songs in my music library have no album artwork at all... No matter how many times I try syncing it to iTunes.
-I will screenshot stuff and it won't save to camera roll until I screenshot it like seven times.
-My phone tells me I am in different countries sometimes??
-My battery lasts approximately 45 minutes.
Look.. I know my phone is old and all that other stuff. But I'm just a teen and I worked hard to purchase this phone. I just want it to work and I can't afford to buy a newer 4s/5/5c/or 5s. I just don't have that kind of money. Overall the design is amazing and I really like it (I would just really appreciate some bugfixes or something).
Thanks in advance

I have factory reset my phone twice.. I have disabled iCloud settings.. I looked up possible downgrading options.. which isn't possible. I feel as if my iPhone 4 was offered the update so I was forced to get another phone

    My iPhone 4s will not register with server after iOS 6 update.  Does anyone has similar problem?

    Obviously since you have iOS 7 you're a developer.  As a developer, you signed a NDA with Apple not to discuss the iOS on a public forum.  Please log in to the Developer Forum using your credentials and ask for help there, lest you risk having your credentials terminated.
    Thanks, and best of luck to you.

  • IPhone overheating, sending massive amounts of data after iOS 5 update

    After finally upgrading to iOS5 on my iPhone 4 yesterday, I unplugged it and went to work today.  In 2 hours with almost no usage battery was down to 32%, phone was very hot, and checking my data usage it was up to nearly 1GB this morning.  I closed all apps except mail, phone and did a reboot.  Now, in the last hour it's used another 90MB.  What in the world could the phone be doing to cause this?

    There's multiple threads in here already that cover this, but here's my take:
    My wife's 4S has this issue as well (200MB plan) and it used 130MB in one night at 12am while we were asleep.  Interestingly my 4S does not have this extrenous 3G data usage.  So I turned off 2 settings with hers that will hopefully help, but will only know as time passes.
    1. Settings > iCloud > Documents & Data > Use Cellular > OFF
    2. Settings > General > About > Diagnostics & Usage > Don't Send
    I think #1 will definitely have an impact to cellular usage, I doubt #2 will do much.
    Also, if you're really paranoid you can turn off photo stream and iCloud backup however, both of those say it will only use Wifi data for each but who knows...

  • After ios 8 update I can no longer play music through my car. I have a 2012 Nissan Rogue - whihc has its own cable made to use with iPhone 4 - I use a apple adapter to converst to use with 5.

    After ios 8 update I can no longer play music through my car. I have a 2012 Nissan Rogue - which has its own cable made to use with iPhone 4 - I use a apple adapter to converst to use with 5. Has been working fine up until update. Is there a fix for this? The car does not have usb

    Here I come to save the daaaaaaaaaay!!!
    Had the same issue with my Nissan Rogue 2011.
    This listed below will fix it...
    Go to General > Restrictions > CarPlay -- Make sure Carplay is DISABLED. (The new IOS 8 enables this on default)
    Go to General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    The Nissan Rogue radio system was never designed to work with CarPlay. By default, CarPlay feature comes enabled when you install IOS 8. Suckz, right?
    You're very welcome! Have a great day!
    Sincerely,

    Hello richardayoub1,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If your iPhone is in recovery mode, you will need to restore it with iTunes. 
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

  • IPhone 3GS Audio Volume Decrease After iOS 5 Update

    The Audio/Volume on my iPhone 3GS has Decrease SIGNIFICANTLY After iOS 5 Update.  Oddly, the volume of the ring is fine, and as lout as it used to be, and as loud as all other audio should be, but when using any 3rd party applications, the volume output is significantly less (about 40% less) than it used to be.
    I am NOT the only person to experience this problem.  Apparently, the issue has been around since this past summer, when iOS was still being developed / tested.  There is a post about someone experiencing the same issue, here:
    http://modmyi.com/forums/general-iphone-chat/768919-ios-5-low-volume.html
    And before you ask .. I did a language change and reset, and I am still experiencing the SAME issue.
    Any help or advice with this problem would be greatly appreciated.
    In advance, thank you.

    I have a similar or related problem with iOS5/3GS and volume:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/16413964#16413964
    In my case I can hear nothing from the internal speakers although I can use headphones. The volume slider bar is unavailable unless I plug in headphones.

  • HT6154 rear camera on iphone 5 not working after ios 8 update why?

    My iPhone 5 rear camera is no longer working after ios 8 update its just black I can see the flash choice the hdr and the timer but other than that it is a black screen

    Hi there fjci2003,
    You may find the troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.
    Get help with the camera on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch 
    You see a closed lens or black screen
    If you see a closed lens or black screen when you open the Camera app, try these steps:
    Make sure that there’s nothing blocking the camera lens. If you’re using a case, try removing it.
    Force the app to close, then open the Camera app again.
    Restart your device, then open the Camera app again.
    If your device has a front and rear camera, try both cameras by tapping the camera swap icon . If you see the closed lens or black screen on only one camera, take your device to an Apple Retail Store or Authorized Service Provider for more help.
