Hi, I updated to 6.1.2 last night- my battery life was pretty much ok (lasting 1 day + with use throughout the day).
Was at 100% charge last night when updated to IOS 6.1.2- woke up with it at 20% no apps open.
Used a banking app for 3-4 minutes this morning on 3g and dropped 5%.
Saw the `upgrade` was to fix battery drain- didnt have an issue before but I certainly do now.
Any advice on steps to take?
iPhone 5, iOS 6.1.2
Take a look at this Apple page, it has tons of tips that will help improve battery life -> Apple - Batteries - iPhone
Having looked at the other posts and given the huge drain on the battery on standby I`m assuming there is an issue with 6.1.2.
After upgrade, my battery can only last for less than a day compared with before more than one day. and I could feel that sometime in standby, my iphone get hotter for no reason.
And more often my carrier tells me I am accessing their data network while I am using my own WIFI. compare with 6.1.1 just about once a day, This version is more wrose.
Having same issue... Went in to the genius people they had no answers thought it was just an issue with the software and said just to way until a new upgrade came thru. Hear anything else??
Any fix for this? only started draining my battery since i did the 6.1.2 upgrade a few weeks ago. this is jsut frustratiing as heck. Apple are you reading any of this?
thanx god im not the only one who had this. this morning my battery was 100% at 6:30. now its 12:00 and the battery is 5%. ive turend off location services for multi apps. it was okay before update. i wish to get update ASAP
I have been having this problem since 6.1.2 upgrade and have tried some of the fixes (close all apps and restart) unsuccessfully. This morning I killed Wifi and Bluetooth and am running just on LTE (Verizon) and it seems to be holding up much better than it has over the last few weeks. I am on vacation though; no telling what will happen when I get back to work/civilization and turn those back on.
