Network Problems with iOS 6.1 and iPhone 5

I strongly believe that the network connections with iOS6 and my iPhone5 has serious problems. I am experiencing the following issues;
Weak wifi signal at locations where I was enjoying good connection with iOS 6.0.1
Sometime when I enter into a known wifi area, the phone does not connect to wifi automatically. I have to open the Settings App and go to wifi section to get it connected.
Sometimes when I wake-up my phone from sleep, which is sleeping well within wifi range, it shows 3G connection and take some times to get connected to wifi.
I am experiencing fast battery draining when compared to my phone with iOS 6.0.1
FYI, I have already tried resetting my network settings and done hard restarting many times without success.
Please advice any action to solve the problems.
FYI, I have submitted the above to Apple via Apple feedback page.

I am having the same issues with an iPhone 5 and it all started when I upgraded to iOS6.1.  I geat a strong wifi signal all 3 bars showing and speedtest shows a 20Mps upload and download connection (I have BT Infinity up to 70Mbps connection), however when I go onto safari or even simplae apps like weather or Sky News I am unable to connect  - regularly getting the message "Cannot connect to .... a wifi or 3G connection is required.  Occasionally it will work say 5% of the time bit having to switch to 3G and luckily I ahave an unlimited data package but the speeed is really slow ~ 2 Mps.  I have searched the web and see that Apple is saying there is a problem with Exchange server getting too meny messages and thus denying access but have followed the guidance given and reset the phone, resey the wifi connection and no change I can only use the phone on 3G.  I believe there is a big problem here and Apple need to get a fix out pretty quick.  If you read this and have the same issues then please log them so Apple know how big an issue this is.  I know it is not a wifi issue as getting great wifi on my iMAC and wife's iPhone 3.
regards
Steve

    No. Try deleting the account and re-adding it.

  • Is anybody else having problems with iOS 7.1 and Home Sharing?

    I have two iPhone 4's - one I recently upgraded to iOS 7.1 and the other running 6.3.1. The phone upgraded to 7.1 will not connect to my (rather large iTunes library) on my Mac Mini (running 10.9.2). The 7.1 phone does see the library - and attempts to connect - but the progress indicator stops at about 50%.
    I've tried de-activating sharing on the Mini and then re-activating. I've tried restoring the 7.1 phone from a back-up. No change.
    Also - now the 6.3 phone will connect to the library - but the playlists have no entries and 99% of the library is missing.
    Before the upgrade - the phone now running 7.1 never had any issues with Home Sharing.
    Anyone else out there having issues with iOS 7.1 and Home Sharing?

    I've had no problems with Facebook on my iPhone 5 but here are a couple of suggestions.
    1. Quit Facebook like I describe then reset the iPhone. Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart.
    2. If the first thing doesn't help, quit Facebook again, delete Facebook, and reset the iPad. After the iPad restarts use the App Store app to download Facebook again.

  • Problems with iOS 7 on my iPhone 4 .

    I have an iPhone 4, from the gms I have updated the software to iOS 7 I am facing lots of issues. Now the phone does not connect to my wifi networks . Even if it does connect it only for a few minutes. Also my iMessage does not work. Every time I receive a call and I answer it, the phone shows it as a missed call. Pls advice a solution.

    I have had problems with my phone not connecting for quite a few minutes as well.  I also have been experiencing the same thing with the call going to missed before I could answer it.  Evidently, this is site to share common complaints and not the site to get answers from Apple. VERY  Frustrated!

  • Obvious problem with ios 8.02 and Bluetooth

    So....just like every one else out there my and my wife's new iphone 6 with IOS 8.02 will not connect properly to either of our cars - Chevy volt and Mini Countryman. Yes I deleted phone, reset, re-paired and reset the phones numerous times. This is unsafe and unacceptable. Apple needs to fix this problem. In California it is illegal to talk on the phone without hands free Bluetooth. I find it unbelievable that they did not find this out and fix this prior to the release of the software update. Please update to fix so everyone can once again use their cars Bluetooth safely or do we now have to buy apple cars to make it work?

    Um....iOS 8.1 came out Monday and it specifically says the update addresses issues with Bluetooth connectivity.  And lot's of people have already reported their Bluetooth headaches went away with iOS 8.1.  Have you updated to 8.1?

  • Problems with iOS 7.1 on iPhone 5

    Everything was fine when I had iOS 7, but since I update to 7.1 my iPhone 5 started to have bugs, one of them was that when I open mail it didn't update and the screen freezed same when I went to settings on notification center, also when I try to unlock my iPhone sometimes doesn't turn on and I have to reboot it pressing the sleep and home button 10 seconds.
    I don't know if it only happens to me because my friends and girlfriend don't have those problems.
    A problem that I have too since I updated my iPhone with the ios 7 is that sometimes the shortcuts works and sometimes not, I've read that I'm not the only one I hope in iOS 8 Apple fixed that bugs.

    I've had no problems with Facebook on my iPhone 5 but here are a couple of suggestions.
    1. Quit Facebook like I describe then reset the iPhone. Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it.

  • Numerous problems with iOS 4.3 on iPhone 3GS

    Hello everyone,
    I was wondering if anyone else had similar problems after upgrading to iOS 4.3 on 3GS. I've noticed a few problems which are rather annoying and there's no way to go back to iOS 4.2 which I find really bizzare.
    Here's what's happening on my phone (mind that upgrade went smoothly, no problems there).
    1. when unlocking screen I often have have to swipe the finger several times for it to unlock (trust me it's not my chubby fingers, I didn't have that problem before),
    2. phone is now constantly loosing internet connection even when there's perfect reception,
    3. doesn't want to charge using car charger anymore! Says accessory not supported,
    4. overall performance loss, slow switching between the screens and applications.
    Did anyone have similar problems? Please advise.
    Thank you,
    Piachu.

    I had the same problem. Along with apps not working or working very slowly and ipod not working at all, itunes not recognising the iphone.
    After struggling for weeks I bit the bullet and restored but I did restore from back-up. Problems solved. Battery life is back to normal. Aps working, I love my iphone again.
    I put off doing this because I thought it would be a huge pain getting the thing back to where I wanted it, but in fact it took a couple of hours - a lot less that the time I'd spent trying other solutions.

  • Problems With Hand free system and Iphone 4

    Looking at the details of other people who all seem to e having the same problems with the connectivity with audio systems, I have a state of the art Kenwood car system which keeps loosing the phone. Whats the pointy of even bothering with a phone like this 3 weeks after I got it if it's features will not work.
    Will Apple accept that the phone has a fault and give me the option of getting a different phone which will do what the box says?

    Update iTunes on your PC >  iTunes 11.1.1 for Windows (64-bit
    Then restart the PC and try restoring the iPhone.

  • Wifi problem with IOS 6 on my Iphone 4S

    Thanks!

    Why don't you try some basic troubleshooting instead of ranting about how someone else should solve a problem that's specific to YOUR phone.

  • Problems with iOS 7 Mail and Cisco Unified Messaging attachments?

    Does anyone out there use Cisco Unified Messaging in their workplace? I am seeing an issue with iOS 7 (7.0.0-7.0.2) where the following scenario occurs:
    You check an email in the Mail app that is from the Cisco Unified Messaging system when you get a voicemail. The voicemail is left by Person A who attaches a subsequent voicemail from Person B and they leave an intro saying "Attached is a voicemail blah blah blah"  The email from Cisco comes across as having a .wav attachment and then an email attachment with a .wav file inside (supposed to be the original voicemail from Person B). If you play both .wav attachments, it just plays the same audio and not separate voicemails (one being the intro from Person A and one being the original Person B voicemail). It seems to hold on to whichever .wav attachment you played first (e.g. if you play the Person B voicemail .wav file and then go to the .wav file that should be Person A's intro, it just plays Person B's voicemail).
    We did not experience this with iOS 6 and have confirmed that things work just fine on phones that have not been upgraded to iOS 7. Email account on iOS devices is a Microsoft Exchange account.
    I am sorry if this is already a known issue, but I've had trouble searching for results. Any help would be tremendous in hunting down this strange phenomenon.
    Thank you,
    -Ted

    Does anybody have even any thoughts on this and whether it might be a known issue of any kind? Anyone seeing this with other .wav attachments outside of Cisco UM  ?

  • Network problem with Verizon in NYC and Jersey City

    Hi
    I have an IPhone 5 on my friends shared plan and ever since I joined Verizon , the network signal has been pathetic. I feel I am being duped of monthly bills as the there is nil coverage on my 41st floor office in downtown Manhattan as well as my residence in downtown Jersey City. Forget about 4G , even 3G stinks for Verizon in this area. My problem is one pays them to have phone for 24 hrs connectivity but Verizon doesn't offer me connectivity for 12 hours of the day I am in office and the only net connectivity on my iphone is when I am back home on my home wifi. I can't understand Verizon being a leader in telecom , can't invest in their infrastructure so that its users don't have to bear this pain.The kind of service you offer, I am sorry to say , is not up to your standards. Kindly suggest how would you solve my problem, I m barely 5 months into the plan and just don't want to be a cash cow to you where once I have signed a contract with you , you forget about your promise to offer me world class service and just expecting monthly payments from me.
    Regards

        Hello NK
    I would be happy to address any concerns today. I want you to love us. Service on the 41st floor could be very challenging. Here's a great link that will show you the network extender:http://bit.ly/AKkC

  • MMS Problem with IOS 4.2.1 (iPhone 4, Beijing, China)

    Just upgraded from 4.1 to 4.2.1 and got problem sending out MMS (pictures).
    I tried to change the setting under Network - Cellular Data Network - MMS - MMS Max Message Size to 800,000, then succeeded. But when changed back to 50,000 which is the regular size of MMS here, it just did not went through.
    So seems the problem is after upgrading the phone cannot resize pictures automatically. When the 800,000 bytes picture went through, it did look prettier and sharper when I checked by clicking it in the message thread. The ironic thing is, 50,000 bytes is the limite of our local service provider, China Mobile. So I will not be able to send out MMS from my iPhone unless it is sent as the original size, and once I sent it out without resizing it, my friends get a text from China Mobile that they cannot get my MMS cause it is over-sized... (@v@)
    I found this happening in other countries as well, so guess we just wait for Apple's solution :S And for people that using the service with no size limite of MMS, changing the setting as I did above may solve this problem, temporarily...

    The easiest way to size an iphone photo down is to do a screen shot of it. Bring the photo up on screen that you wish to downsize... Press sleep and home button at the same time. After you see a white flash on the phone release the buttons.
    The screen shot now becomes the latest picture in your photo library. I have found from bringing photos into iphoto to compare that this process will reduce a 2.2MB picture down to 950KB, and isn't really noticeable on the camera screen.
    This should also help with mms sending issues where the photo is too big and the phone times out before it is sent.

  • Problem with IOS 6 download and now ipod wont work

    i got a notification about the new IOS 6 version to download and so i accepted and downloaded it...the download completed but then my iPod went black and never came back on. i gave it time to turn on by itself but nothing happened. i went home and plugged it in to itunes and it states my ipod is in recovery mode and that in order to pursue further action i need to restore i have restored it multiple times and nothing happens. it just verifies restore with itunes and says its waqiting on ipod but nothing ever happens. what do i do now? i need my iPod up and running soon!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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.

  • Has anyone had the same problem with IOS 6 install and McAfee flagging certain IOS 6 install components as Malware?

    I was using ITunes to install IOS 6 on my 64GB IPad 2 when McAfee on my IMac (Software  OS X 10.8.1 (12B19)) reported that it had found Malware and had put the offending file into quarantine. The IOS 6 install process then tried to re-write the file. This happened with three seperate files that the IOS 6 install process was attempting to write, effectivley causing a stall in the process. The only way I could get the install process to complete was to go into the McAfee preferences and change quarantine to notify. The process then completed.  Has anyone else come across this problem?

    Hmmmm... That did not work.  I did the full restore on the ipod touch (Losing that is the lesser of the two evils if I screwed it up) and before I resynced it, I unplugged it and tried to plug it into the wall adapter.  But it would not charge.  Plugged it back into the computer and it popped right up with the lightning bolt on the battery and began charging.
    So I resynced it and at least all my stuff is still there.  Not going to bother trying with my phone if it didn't work on the ipod touch.
    I can assure you my 4s is out of warranty.  I've had it for 2 years. 

  • Problem with Apple Universal Dock and Iphone 3G

    Just bought the newest version of the Apple universal dock (revision C), so I can have one dock for my iphone and all my ipods.
    It appears that even the newest version isn't 100% compatible with the iphone.
    When the iphone is connected via the dock, you get no alert sounds such as for new email, text, etc..when the phone rings you DO get audio then.
    Also, when you try and sync the iphone with itunes while connected, it won't sync. It just hangs and says "sync cannot be completed"....
    Connecting the iphone directly via the cable to the computer solves all these issues.
    They advertise this as compatible with iphone but obviously not so...

    Update:
    I've checked this:
    -Aux (Dock-Connector) of the iPod has no damage, no problems playing music in the car!
    -Same Problem now with iPhone. It gets charged and so, but if I want to listen to music it is very quiet, music is playing for half a second or so, after that stopped, than goes on playing for a second or so. Cracking sounds often while music is stopped.
    So the Dock is broken, I guess.
    Any possibility to restart/resert or so by my own or try to get it fixed by apple?
    Greetz!
