Overheating and Draining: The iPhone iOS 6.1.1 did NOT solve the issues of 6.1

Apple released the iOS 6.1.1 yesterday in an attempt to patch the faulty script that is causing iPhone 4S users' batteries to overheat and drain at 3X-4X the normal rate.
I have a Verizon iPhone 4S and the iOS 6.1.1 patch did NOT work.  Today, I watched my battery life go from 100% (cycle charge with top off) to 10% in 6 hours.  Like many of you, I use all the tips and tricks such as:
Fetch mail instead of push
No location based iAds
Siri not activated upon handset pickup
Minimal notification center alerts (only a few that I need)
Low brightness with auto setting
I hope Apple can fix this as soon as possible- this is causing irreparable damage to my battery in the interim until the software is coded correctly.

Does this involve Gmail Exchange accounts?  Or just Microsoft Exchange accounts? 
I use the exchange version for my gmail account on my iPhone 4S so I was just curious.  I have actually gotten better battery life since updating to iOS 6.1 and haven't notice a difference since updating to iOS 6.1.1, but that was last night so it may be to early to tell. I did leave my phone unplugged last night and it had only drained from 100% to 90% after 7 hours sitting on my nightstand turned on but locked.
I think there is a correlation between updating Over The Air rather than through iTunes and the battery life issue.  Most of the battery issue stories I have read were from people that updated OTA.  I have always done my updates through iTunes and have only once had a problem with my battery, but a full cycle drain and recharge fixed it.

    Hey everyone-
    Im in the same boat, started a thread . My hands free system worked fine with iOS 8 out of the box new iphone 6. Did the update this morning and i can stream music perfectly fine however i cannot make or receive calls through hands free system.
    I have not tried resetting the settings like most people indicate is working. I feel like I shouldn't have to reset anything, even less mess with settings with an update coming from apple. it should "Just Work"
    Some people who reset said it works for a few hours, other say it don't work, and I don't know what I should do.

  • IOS 7.0.3 did not fix the mirroring issue with ATVs and AirServer.  Anyone have an idea what needs to be done?

    iOS 7.0.3 did not fix the mirroring issue with ATVs and AirServer.  Anyone have an idea what needs to be done?  The only solution we have found is to reboot the iPad.  We don't have the option of restarting the wireless as so many people are on and it would further disrupt classes.

    Hi RadarCat16,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I know it can be frustrating when you are waiting for content to download to your iPhone from the iTunes Store. There are a few steps I would recommend in this situation. Please read over and follow the steps in the attached article.
    iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1725
    If your download was interrupted using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    From the Home screen, tap the iTunes app.
    For iPhone or iPod touch, tap More > Downloads. For iPad, tap Downloads.
    Enter your account name and password if prompted.
    Tap the blue download arrow to resume.
    If you can't complete the download on your iOS device, you can download it in iTunes on your Mac or PC and then sync it to your iOS device. You can also transfer purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer.
    Have a great day,
    Joe

  • Tried to sync an app onto my touch off of my computer, and a window popped up stating that I did not have the proper software for the app...HELP

    I tried to sync an app from my computer to my touch and a window popped up stating that I did not have the proper software for that app. How do I get the software update??

    This is the iPhone hardware forum. It sounds like you need to upgrade the version of iOS on your device, though. Plug it in and click check for updates in iTunes.

  • The iphone cannot be synced you do not have the privilege to make changes

    I have a MAC mini and I got an iPhone5 two days ago. When I connected the iphone to the mac mini or the first time it worked fine but now the iphone can't be synchronized using itunes I get a message saying 'the iphone cannot be synced you do not have the privilege to make changes'.
    Any ideas?

    Well mine is now ok.
    I noticed that my iPhoto library  (on an external disk) was not allowing write access and the drive had become locked, so to test, I migrated my library back to the main drive and set iPhoto to open that as the main library. I performed a sync with iTunes and all has gone trough fine.
    Makes me happpy, as my next step was to factory reset the phone.

  • ATTENTION!! RECEIVED FRAUDULENT EMAIL PRETENDING TO BE APPLE!! I received an email informing of a purchase made on my account and telling me to change my password if did not purchase the item, which I had not. I have received valid emails from Apple

    ATTENTION!! RECEIVED FRAUDULENT EMAIL PRETENDING TO BE APPLE!! I received an email informing of a purchase made on my account and telling me to change my password if did not purchase the item, which I had not. I have received valid emails from Apple in the past asking letting me know a purchase had been made and asking if I had made the purchase, but the item listed has alway been a purchase that I had made. Since I had received similar emails in the past, I didn't think anything of it. Because I had not purchased the item listed, I immediately clicked on the link in order to change my password, which has been suggested in authentic emails i had received from Apple in the past. The site I was redirected to was exactly the same as the Apple site where you go to change your password. I entered my userID and password and it stated a verification email would be sent, if it was not sent click "resend email." When I did not receive an email, after about 10 seconds I went to the Apple site and followed the SAME EXACT step on pages that were IDENTICAL to the FRAUDULENT website I apparently had just been at. When I clicked "Send verification email," I DID receive an email within seconds, which had a special link that brought me to a page where I could change my password, which I did. I later compared a legitimate email to the FRAUDULENT email and I DID FIND A DIFFERENCE, BUT IT WAS ALMOST UNNOTICEABLE unless you were really, really looking.  I doubt it would be noticed by anyone if not comparing it closely to a real email. THE DIFFERENCE WAS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE AUTHENTIC EMAIL, THERE WERE THREE LINKS THAT COULD BE SELECTED - My Apple ID/Support/Privacy Policy. ON THE FRAUDULENT EMAIL THESE LINKS WERE NOT PRESENT!!! Just today I received an email from Apple stating my password had been changed today. I did not change my password today. When I changed after getting the fake email, I did not think about my SECURITY QUESTIONS!!! If you forget your Apple password, you are able to answer the security questions in place of your ID and you get a confirmation email. Even though I changed my password within a one minute when I did not get a confirmation email with a link to change my password right away and I went dierctly to Apple's site, apparently it was enough time to take all the information on my account - INCLUDING MY DEBIT CARD NUMBER, WHICH HAD BEEN REQUIRED WHEN I INITIALLY SET UP THE ACCOUNT!!! Today I received a call from VISA FRAUD PROTECTION asking about strange activity on my account and stating they were concerned and wanted to ensure I had used the account. I HAD NOT, AND ALL THE MONEY IN MY BANK ACCOUNT HAD BEEN STOLEN!!!!! I am writing this in hopes that many people will see it and NOT FALL VICTIM TO THIS SCAM. Please pay close attention to any emails you supposedly receive from Apple - If the links "MY APPLE ID/SUPPORT/PRIVACY POLICY," PLEASE DO NOT ASSUME IT IS AN AUTHENTIC EMAIL FROM APPLE. I suggest you immediately forward the email to apple, which I didn't do because this happened days ago. Nothing was taken from my money that was already on the Apple account, and nothing had been taken from my checking account. I guess I assumed there had been something wrong with the link in the email directing me to where I could change my password, plus I had gone to the valid Apple website and changed my password for real, and I guess I was thinking that changing my password would prevent someone from being able to acces my account info. PLEASE DO NOT FALL VICTIM TO THIS SCAM AS I DID!!!!

    No need for alarm. There are several folks a day posting like threads. Most folks know these phishing attempts for what they are and merely delete with prejudice.
    To the bottom line... if you wish - and I am sure Apple will take notice - you should FORWARD the email to [email protected] and delete.

  • I had to trade in my iPhone for an android, I did not unencrypted the back up on iTunes, i no longer have access to the phone, is there a way to get to my data?

    I had to trade in my iPhone for an android, I did not unencrypted the back up on iTunes, i no longer have access to the phone, is there a way to get to my data?

    The difficulty is you have to unencrypt during the restore process, which you cannot do with an Android device.

  • I cannot shut dow my MacBook Pro using the apple icon (as it was suppose to be), actually I have to press and hold the on/off buttom. I have taken twice for Mac dealer and they did not solve the problem. What must I do?

    I cannot shut dow my MacBook Pro using the apple icon (as it was suppose to be), actually I have to press and hold the on/off buttom. I have taken twice for Mac dealer and they did not solve the problem. What must I do? I would to remark that I have installed 2 antivirus and uninstalled one of them. Since then I have facing this troublesome issue. Thanks

    Uninstall the other AV software. They are not needed. All they do is cause trouble like you are having now.
    If you have been forcing the Mac to shut down with the power switch you may nave corrupted your disk. You should repair it with disk Utilty to remove any corruption the shutdwons may have cased.
