iOS 6.1.3 battery drainage

And you know this how? As in the link I posted on the previous page, it looks like IOS 7 could be significantly delayed and even with no delays they estimate a Sept. IOS 7 release at the earliest. So how do you know their will be no other updates? If you have direct knowledge of something like that please include a link or reference to where the information came from. If you are just assuming or speculating this then please mention that it in your posts.... I have never heard of any reports that Apple has ever disclosed information stating that their will be no more updates until a certain time or until the new version of IOS comes out.

NOTE TO ALL: Installed 6.1.4 over WiFi and all went smoothly. There is a definate improvement on speaker phone clarity and a slight increase in volume level from the speaker. Sounds like they boosted the low / mid fequencies a bit. Will report if any battery life issues have changed.

In pretty confident this update won't address battery concerns. As its specific to the iPhone 5. It appears to be nothing more than an audio profile update.

Though perhaps the update process will inadvertently fix it? Who knows.

I'm like you with my words....try and keep it real. But the rules here don't allow you to really express ones self. I keep it like that.

Battery problem is still going. You would think with the technology today, we can make a battery last days! Or a software that can't effect it. Keep it separate from the software so it doesn't get involved with a update with a bug.

apple you need to archieve ios 7 as the battery life on ios 6.1.4 is dropping and drange is already found please will you have time to insert the serious problems like the speakerphone and bettery drainge also streetveiw on maps

I think the rest of us w/o an iPhone 5 will be waiting for ios 7. Why bother with ios 6.x.x Apple has everyone working on ios 7. Looks like the battery problem will be around for the summer.....what fun. So depressed with Apple right now. 6.1.4 didn't have anything to do with helping the battery issue...lol

No other major updates for iOS are expected to be released, as Apple is believed to be hard at work on the next major update to its mobile operating system. iOS 7 is expected to be unveiled at this year's Worldwide Developers Conference, scheduled for June 10 through 14. Presumably developers will also be provided with a pre-release beta of the software at the same time.

Funny that's almost exactly the same thing AppleInsider stated when 6.1.3 was released. "No other IOS updates are expected until IOS 7 is realeased with the next product launch this summer" So I give their new statement no creadibility whatsoever. No one except Apple knows what IOS updates are in the works.

You do realize that 99% of those blogs look at the apple forums (here) for their information? You will see direct quotes from these forums. There is really little merit for new information other than what is already posted here. So google search for this doesnt really say anything. Reminds me of the state farm commercial. "They cant put anything on the internet that isn't true", "Where you hear that?", "The internet"

Also jajaba is dead on with the grand scheme numbers. A million with a battery issue (which probably there are not even that many) is nothing compared to the number of devices out there with no issue. Also if you think about it, if this were completely an iOS issue you really think Apple would release a speaker phone fix that no one was even aware of and just brush off a real battery issue within the OS that is huge as you state? I think not.

iOS 6.1.2 & 6.1.3 are problems. With the same settings, my battery % is going crazy. I haven't changed or added anything, yet on iOS 6.0 I had no issues. A quick look on Google will tell you I'm not crazy. People aren't crazy.

Waiting on the "iOS 6.1.4 speaker update causes massive battery drain for all users with iOS devices" thread. I'm sure whatever they changed in speaker will kill the battery and create new blog and news articles.

"Apple new iOS 6.1.4 speaker update makes iPhone users battery only last 10 minutes now! Read more details below"

That is good, still need improvement. I used to get 10 hours before I started to see a decrease from a 100 percent. Apple knows what it is doing. But you have people ready to jump when things are not right or talk trash.

I'm not talking about Blogs. The first major hit on Google talking about Battery Drain 6.1.3 is CNET.

And yes. I think apple would release a speakerphone update knowing that there is a battery drain issue.

Just like they knew there was an antenna issue with the iPhone 4 and sold it to me anyway.

42 minutes on 100%?

No smartphone on planet earth can be used for nearly an hour and be at 100%.

Maybe 42min standby and it didn't drop? Is that what you're saying? Is this with all features on? Data on?

I doubt that you're using an iPhone 5 "tough" for 7:20hrs. Give me your phone. You'll see it dead in about 5 hours.

There are guys here who turn on Data only when they want to do something. So, they take out their phones 50 times a day to see if they have any messages.

Nowadays, in the era of social networking and chat and LINE and Whatsapp and push news and all that, it seems like every app is pushing something to your phone. Lots of them anyway.

That's a real iOS FAIL if we have to kill all social and chat apps and turn off push just to get an (almost) day out of an iPhone.

So we are back at square 1. iOS blows.

The Nokia 720 costs half of the price and you can have your push and Facebook and all that stuff turned on and gives you a day and a half of heavy use.

"notice all the users coming here and complaining...I'm not crazy after all am I?"

You moronic idiot! Scroll to the top of page and read the stats! There have been a total of 792 Users who have posted a reply on this forum over 7 weeks! That doesn't even account for users who have posted more than once (like you)! So if you think the fact that 700 users complaining out of 200,000,000 is significant then yes you really are crazy! That's .000003% of 6.1.3 users. LMAO once again.
