Iphone 5 and IOS 6.0.2 is draining my battery!

Beware IOS 6.0.2!!

I loaded IOS 6.0.2 yesterday. Unfortunately it only partially fixed my wifi issues (I already have several posts about my wifi issues). But, to my complete and utter frustration, it introduced a NEW ISSUE I was not having before -- it is absolutely draining my battery. I can usually get through a day with about 75% of my battery power remaining. Today I've gone through 90% and I've done nothing special with it.

Come on, Apple! I know you guys have to be reading these posts. You are driving your loyal fan base away. I'm ready to get my money back and switch to Android. The time (hours-and-hours spent trying to debug my problems) and money do not seem worth it any more.

Thanks, Nathan. I share your feelings. To be more exact they removed my post 4 times (I kept reposting wondering what was going on) until I got an email to stop doing it!

Downgraded is not supported by Apple doing so is hacking your phone thus voiding your warranty. Also against the forum term of service.

razmee209 -

Agreed. Apple does not condone downgrades to avoid fragmentation.

Would you like to comment on why iTunes verifies the downgrade fine against the Apple servers unlike our previous experience with downgrades being denied? Maybe because it is a necessary downgrade?

I don't know why iTunes does, I just know that Apple doesn't support it, so I can't comment on iTunes side of it.
