iOS 5.0.1 - Made my iPhone 4S battery performance worse!

I upgraded my iphone 4S to the 5.0.1 release today. However, I've noticed that my battery life has actually gotten worse since I upgrade. For example, I've been home for approximately 30 minutes and my battery has gone down in 8%. In the 30 minutes, I had a 30 second phone call and sent 3 text messages. I am connected to our wi-fi (which is a strong connection) and I have re-started my phone.


Please let me know if anyone else is having any issues!?!!?


Apple - Can you please fix the iphone 4s battery issues? I might as well go get a 4g android phone if the battery life remains this poor.

iPhone 4S, iOS 5, Verizon

I never had a problem with battery life on my iPhone 4. But since I upgraded to iOS 5.1 my battery life got terrible. It drains almost 60% overnight (8-9 hrs). 3G and data is turned off. Just WiFi is on. And it shouldn't be a problem because battery life was fine with 5.0.1 and before... Can't believe Apple doesn't do testings before releasing updates...

Apple requires you to have the appropriate tokens. The servers will simply not let you downgrade your firmware.


You would've needed to save your shsh blobs beforehand to downgrade. If you have follow http://www.redmondpie.com/downgrade-5.0.1-to-4.3.3-4.3.5-5.0-ios-on-iphone-4-3gs -ipad-2-ipad-1-ipod-touch-guide/


If not. Take it to an apple store (If Turkey has one) then tell them your predicament and they should downgrade it for you.
