Someone will lawys have issues. What's your point?
I updated over the air yesterday and have experienced no problems.
As always, make sure you make a backup before you update. Something can always go wrong that might require a restore.
None whatsoever.
I don't have any wifi problem with my iphone 5 and IOS 6.0.1 so, should i update it?
I'm afraid to have some wifi or draining battery problems after this update.
What would you do?
I updated my iPhone 5 and my wife's yesterday. Both over the air via Wi-Fi. No problems came up. Update process took about 6-7 minutes.
Did you have any wifi issue before this new 6.0.2 update?
iOS 6.0.2 does not fix the problem that I am having. There are always some small amounts of data coming through Cellular over WiFi while I am not actually using the phone and the phone connects to WiFi. Interestingly, the phone uses WiFi over Cellular while I actually use the phone. I updated my phone to iOS 6.0.2 this evening, and the problem remains the same.
When the phone is in standby and not connected to a power source, the WiFi radio is powered off to save battery life. This is normal.
Thanks for reply. I still have the same problem while the phone is plugged-in or not in standby. And I don't have the problem with iPhone 4S.
I am having the same issue. Before updating to iOS 6.0.2 last night I never had wi-fi or battery issues at all. Would easily make it all day with general use (Facebook, texts, phone calls) with ending up with 40% at the end of the day before recharging. Today I barely used my phone at all, and I noticed I was down to 40% after 3 hours of being off the charger. This is a significant change in battery drain. Apple please fix this issue asap. I am using iphone 5, At&t.
jheaven, that's usually a result of corruption that occured during the installation process over WiFi or corruption in the backup used to restore the phone when using iTunes to update.
Try a restore using iTunes. If that doesn't fix it, restore it again but do not restore your backup. If that clears it up, the backup is corrupt. Re-sync your data and re-install the apps/re-sync the media. The backup contains he corruption and the problem will re-occur if you use it to restore.
Thanks for the advice, I will work on it later when I get home. However, it seems to be making news and everyone with a iphone 5 or an ipad mini is experiencing similar issues:
zdnet routinely runs poorly researched, knee-jerk articles of this type.
To say that "everyone with a iphone 5 or an ipad mini" is experiencing similar issues is demonstrably false. I have both, as does my wife. Neither of us have had any such problems.
This happens to some degree with virtually every iOS update. It is almost alway caused by corruption.
6.0.2 - any problems?
