My iPhone 4s is not charging properly since updating to iOS 8

I had been putting off updating my iPhone to iOS 8 after hearing much negative feedback about it. But I decided that updating it couldn't be too bad. Now my phone will only charge to around 40% while I'm sleeping (roughly 8 hours of not being used). If I'm on something like facetime, the battery life will continue to lower drastically, but if I simply just sit and don't use much energy it will charge to no higher then 92%. I don't want to have to constantly worry about battery life nor, not be able to leave my phone alone and have it barely charge. I really am not looking to buy a new phone so I'm hoping one of you can help me out. I've already cleaned out the Lightning port and browsed several battery saving tips. I just don't know what's wrong.

Why not. The iPhone was also delivered with a charger to connect to the wall outlet, use it

    Music/iTunes Match not working properly since update to iOS 7

    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

  • My iphone 5 is not charging properly. Recently the USB cable was emitting sparks on connecting it to my laptop.This has resulted in physical damage of the wire. Is it still eligible for replacement since it is under 1 year warranty?

  • My music app on my iphone 5 is not working properly since I downloaded ios7.

    The music app on my iphone 5 is not working properly since I downloaded ios7.
    Sometimes I start to use the music app and then part way though a track it stops. I try to re-start it with no joy. I'm also finding the touch screen is less responsive. Can any help me fix the issue or will I need to take it into the store?

    Removing the SIM has no affect on the power of the phone. It is just the part that facilitates connecting to your carrier. Try holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo on the screen and then release the buttons. The phone should reboot. You may need to hold the buttons together for 15-30 seconds.

  • My Iphone 4 will not charge after Ios7 update, does anyone know how to fix ?, My Iphone 4 will not charge after Ios7 update, does anyone know how to fix ?

    My Iphone 4 will not charge after ipdate to IOS 7.0.4, Does anyone have a solution ? I have tried apple cables and chargers. I see many have the same issue. Anyone made progress ?

    No offence, but as with quite a few others, my Iphone stopped charging on mains after iOS 7.0.4 update too.
    Not sure you can categorically advise that "it simply is not a software issue" when so many different people are having the same symptoms after updating their iOS   Just have a quick Google!
    Luckily my (original Apple) cable will still allow recharging via USB to a laptop. So, process of elimination would point to a bricked charger that was working faultlessly up until the iOS 7.0.4 update was applied. Seems quite a stretch to be a coincidence.
    Look forward to an explanation ..... and an update? ......

  • Iphone 4S wont connect to wifi since updating to iOS 6.0.1, can anyone help?

    HELP?! my iphone 4S wont let me turn my wifi on since updating to iOS 6.0.1?

    Not sure what you mean that you have no signal but are on 3. What are you trying to say?

  • IPhone 3G will not charge properly

    I've had my iPhone 3G for about two months now, but in the last week the phone has begun to have issues with charging properly. The phone will not properly show the charge progress on the screen (IE it won't show the meter filling while it's plugged in), but if I restart the phone it will show some progress. The phone will also sometimes say the battery is charged (showing the plug in the small icon in the upper right), but the meter won't be full.
    The phone basically seems to stall when charging, sometimes the charge meter jumps in random spurts and other times it just sticks at one point with no change, sometimes a restart will get it to show some progress and other times it won't do anything.
    Any help you can offer would be much appreciated!

    Standard troubleshooting is
    1) Reset (hold sleep/wake & home button until the Apple logo appears)
    2) Restore (connect to iTunes and click the restore option)
    If 1 and 2 do not work, the next step is to take it into the Genius Bar to be looked at.

  • My IPhone 4 will not charge sine the update.

    First it started to just die really quickly not it will not charge past 2%.

    If it's still under warranty, Apple will fix it, but you have to send it to them, so you won't have it for several weeks. If the warranty is expired, they'll still do it, but you'll have to pay for it. Last I heard, it costs $99/S&H.
    That is the ultimate defect in the iPhone. No other cellphone has a battery that is not user-replaceable. I won't buy a phone that doesn't.

  • MMS texts not working properly since updating to KitKat

    I used to be able to send and receive group texts although I would sometimes have to 'download' the group messages, which was a pain but at least I got the messages.  Since updating to KitKat on 5/21/14, I have been unable to receive group texts at all and any pictures are VERY slow in coming to me.  For the group texts, I will receive a notification but can never actually SEE the text no matter which way I go in to see the message.  With pictures, there will be the little (1) - or whatever number of pics I've received - at the bottom of the messaging icon, but the pictures don't show up at all, or they will come through after I turn the phone off and back on...which I don't do every hour of every day.  This is so annoying! 
    I have seen other people in the forums having similar problems and they have recommended force stopping the messaging app, clearing the data...blah blah...but that doesn't work.  I did a chat with a Verizon rep earlier today for about an hour and still didn't get a fix to my issue before I had to sign off of the chat due to a meeting.  She had me delete all my text threads (which I wasn't a fan of), and doing the force stop, clear data, clear cache, etc. none of which worked.
    This is making me not like my phone right now.

    Hi Kevin.  Thank you for your response.  I was using the normal text messaging application, not Hangouts.  I'm having issues with the picture messages no matter where I am at, on Wifi and on mobile data.  The Verizon tech I chatted with yesterday had me try both ways and should be documented in my account if you can access that information. 
    I did try downloading a 3rd party app last night (Textra) and picture messages go fine through that app, but I still have the trouble with group messages.  I tried to send a group text to my husband (on an iPhone) and my cousin (on a Samsung) to test things this morning and my cousin received it and my husband didn't.  When my cousin responded it went to a single thread, not the group text. 
    I would really like to just use my phone like normal, without having to find a suitable 3rd party app to make things work right with my messaging. 

  • Pdf files not opening properly since updating to 1.7.1.418 only happens with security locked files

    I've saved a file in pdf format from Illustrator with a security lock & now it wont open in Photoshop. I've only had this issue since updating to version 1.7.1.418

    Wouldn't it be a good idea to completely invalidate the applet cache in the JRE installer?Yes, I guess it should be an option for user of the app on first start after upgrade, not for the JRE installer. There are many large applications that users would want to avoid re-download.
    From the log, there is some hidden exception during first launch. The best way to proceed is to file a bug, including some guest/debugging access to the game.

  • HT5569 My iphone 4s can not find wifi after updating to iOS 7.0.4.

    I went to the Apple Store today and explained what is wrong with my phone, they didn't even bother checking it, they said I need a replacement for £150, as it's in Apple T&C's that they are not liable if a phone breaks because of an update. My phone was working perfectly fine before I updated with iOS 7.0.4, how can Apple now not take the responsibilty of fixing their mistakes. When will we receive a fix, I have tried every suggestion possible and still no wifi!! HELP..

    iPhone 4S: I have the same problem. After updating to iOS 7, wifi worked for some time, and then it stopped working. I can't even enable wifi. I just updated to iOS 7.0.2 and it didn't help at all.

  • My iphone 4s will not charge properly

    everytime i plug it in, whether its into my laptop or into a wall outlet, it wont charge, sometimes it does, but recently it hasnt been working.

    Mine charges just fine, as does everyone's iPhone 4S that I know. Apple even sells a number of car chargers that are certified to work:

    Perhaps there is a problem with your charger or the outlet you're using in your car/truck.
