Why iOS 6 crashes on my iPhone 4s? i cant listen music for more than 30 seconds and every app crashes over a few minutes of use.

I already downloadead and install iOS 6, the first couple of ours worked fine, but then, abour 4 hours later the sistem became unestable. Crashes, hangups and a lot of memory consumption became. The sistem processes takes about 70% of processor iddle and about 90% of sistem memory ram, a shame because that lets me no choice for oppening new apps and could explain the constant crashes.


I saw the stats from Battery Doctor. Im worried and i beg for a fast solution you Apple guys.

I have exactly the same problem! I have restored as a new iphone and after a few hours every single app was crashing again. I couldn't even listen to music for more than a minute!


I guess it has something to do with the way the iphone was upgraded. My sisters and friends have all upgraded directly from the iphone and I was the only doing it with itunes and now im also the only one who has this problem. I'm gonna try to restore my phone again but now im gonna force itunes to download another firmware so it won't use the one that has been having the problem. I hope apple already realized that ios6 is not working for every iphone :/

Mmmmmm that's bad......i hope that this issue gets solved as soon as possible! Why is this happening?! Since my iphone is still under warranty, do you think i should give it a go and try to change it, or Apple will issue an update to fix these issues soon? How was the situation whe iOS5 was released? Has there been any issues? How long did it take Apple to issue an update?

guys, check under settings/about/diagnostics&usage/diagnostics&usage data if your phone is sending the "lowmemory" crash log every minute or two to apple diagnostics center. if it isn't, turn it on, so they will get more of these logs and see that more and more people are having the same issue, and then maybe they are able to release an update more quickly.

i have the same issues with ios6. after updating my ip4s, apps kept crashing. even settings and messaging, including the app store and safari. almost everything is glitched suddenly. i tried hard resetting my phone, didn't work. deleted all contents and restored from itunes back up, didn't help either. and yes i have the same diagnostic and usage data record of low memory status (i still have 3.4 gb of free space tho). i don't get it, is it using up RAM? i've never had problems with the last version even if i had multiple apps running. has anyone tried restoring to 5.1.1 then re-updating to ios6? please let me know if it works. this *****!

I have iPhone4 black colour. I upgraded to iOS 6, worked fine for 5hrs and after that it crashed so badly that even on reboot (pressing home and power button together), its not responding. The phone is dead, and I have all my important stuff there. I tried connecting to iTUNES but since the phone is dead, computer is not recognising the device and same with iTUNES. After reading the posts I charged my iPhone for 5hrs but still its not responding. All I see is just blank black dead screen(same when iphone is switched off).


Anyone pls help :-((((


APPLE DO SOMETHING, CAN NOT LIVE WITHOUT MY IPHONE AND THE IMPORTANT DATA. ALL OFFICE WORK WILL BE LOST.


PLEASE HELP!!!!
