Hi everyone

Sorry to hear that it is not just me having issues with the 4s.


I am so diasppointed with the dropped signal, wifi & battery drain issues, this is yet another black mark against a brand that I trust. I am saddened by the fact that these issues should have been ironed out BEFORE launch.


Looks to me like Apple is going the same way Nokia went when I had an N97, I sold it & NEVER went back.


My next phone will be an HTC for sure


:-(

I am also having issued with home WIFI which is very weak. Other WIFI's in my building pop up and seem to offer a stronger signal than my own WIFI 5 meters away from me !! I have also just noticed that when my phone is under charge, the WIFI signal is better. Have disconnected the phone and and lo and behold the Wifi signal bars go down again !

Since the update, my battery is not holding a charge. It was fine before, and I am kicking myself for doing the update. I did receive notice that there was a "fix", so I did that as well. My battery life is worse. I am not using the phone, and battery life went from 97% to 18% in less than 2 hours. And I had turned the "location services" off as recommended by many others. Also having problems connecting to apps and my home wifi service. I just put in a request for someone to call me on this site, and asked that an exception be made (so I don't have to pay for the service call). I will see if they call me on Monday morning. Went to ATT, they said there is nothing they can do. Meanwhile, I am traveling all week with a useless phone. Apple should be sending out a credit for everyone affected, assuming this ever gets fixed!!!

After updating to iOS 5.0.1, my iPhone 4 is not being detected at all by iTunes. Not charging and not being detected. Resetting the phone not helping. I cannot revert to iOS 5.0 and cannot charge the phone. Quite at my wit's end. I wonder whether I would be panicking if I was a critical user with a dead phone.

Even if the 5.0.2 version is out soon, I don't know how I will upgrade the phone to that version since as my (techo) brother in law said, " You've got a brick". Ha!
