iphone 4 overheats after upgrading to ios 5.1

I am having the same problem on my 4s.

I have the same problem. Are you by any chance using Verizon too?

It also happened after the lastest ios 5.1 update.

Shouldn't have updated...[sigh...]

I am having the same problem. My phone did an automatic update and now its overheating and it keeps dropping the data network. I am with Verizon.

I have At&t and have the same problem after 5.1 update. Overheating and rapid battery drain.

heating and rapid battery drain are not a problem if phone is placed in airplane mode and left on, so not a direct battery issue. Any solution ?

My son had the same problem with his iPhone after the 5.1 update. He was going to bring his iPhone back to the Apple Store so he decided to sink his iPhone to his computer so he would not lose any of the information. After he did this, he recharged his phone again and has not had the overheating or battery problem since. It worked for him, I would give it a try.

I'm having same problem with my iPhone 4, I bought the phone from a friend and he restored the phone to factory mode and it was working good, but when I restore the phone with my older's phone back up the problem started! So im thinking to restore the phone again and I hope that work

Same issue, ATT iOS 5.1, battery life is great, but I get a temperature issue even when the phone is cool. I can barely listen to 2 songs with this message popping up. I've tried numerous restores, no help at all.

And now me too.

I updated to IOS 5.1 today.

Under normal conditions, with the phone under no load, or stress, and away from sunlight indoors, my iPhone 4 is giving the "Temperature" warning. It has NEVER done this before, its been completely issue free.

IOS 5.1 is CLEARLY to blame Apple...... Good to see a response from the company that have done this to our phones lol.

Want some answers and a solution please Apple!

PS: The phone had actually gotten so hot I couldn't touch it at all, as it burnt my fingers. This happened in my house with windows open, plenty of breeze blowing through the room...... It has NEVER done anything like this before, until 5.1 was installed. Within 25 minutes of the update this happened....

Same here, iPhone 4, got this year, fine with iOS5.0 , now overheating! had case on, so took it off and put it on a slow fan to cool it down.This is shocking, especially for a £429 phone which is meant to be the best in the world! I live in UK so is worldwide problem.

Well guys!! I resolved my problem I restored my

iPhone and I left it as a new devise I did no do any back up

I sync Avery app and music as u do when the device is brand new!!

And it worked, now my iPhone is not overheating and the battery last

Longer, but don't forget to turn the time zone off on the location service

That helps too, to make the battery last longer

I hope my post helps you gays!!!

I already tried that and it's not working for me. Apple we need iOS 5.2 with a fix!

My iPhone 4 has also been having this problem. I was on a Google+ video chat about a week ago, and got this frightening Temperature warning and had to shut down the phone completely it was so hot. Periodically I simply need to reboot the phone because it is hot to the touch. Is there any update on when a fix might be available, or could this possibly be a hardware problem with my phone (bad heat sinks or something)?

Thx!

Guys, this happened suddenly to me after doing absolutely nothing to my phone. no new apps, no updates, nothing. Then I remembered i had tried to email a video, This after i checked the logs and saw that the MobileMail app kept crashing. I went to check, the mail was stuck there, apparently it created a loop of trying to send and crashing because of size or whatever. I deleted the outbox and the phone went back to normal. Check that out, Te reason restoring doesn't solve this is because it basically sabes the state your phone is in, so there could be something clogging your phone's inner tubes.
