Q: Iphone 4s ios 7 battery issues

I believe a lawsuit had already been raised, which seems a drastic step but each to their own. I think any mention of lawsuits quickly get deleted by the powers that be on here, so clock is ticking!! If only Apple could respond so quickly to real issues.

Just to clarify, I assume you deleted the mail accounts and then recreated?

hmn look the post that mentioned a lawsuit was deleted... surprise surprise,,, lets hide the issue instead of facing it apple!!!!

iOS 7.0.4 is out and it does not have a battery fix in the description!!!!!!!!!!

I gurantee you all that Apple released this iOS 7 update to mess up our 4 & 4s on purpose!

I am sure Apple plan is to make us upgrade and buy 5s!

Guess what, I would rather use my motorola Razr than getting scammed by this company who has 0 respect for its customers!

Apple is way outta line! They JUST DONT CARE!

If you delete this post you are cowards!\

I stopped updating... I will wait until jailbreak comes out, and then sort it out... I will tell you what is really pathetic about all of this.... I cannot even use the iphone 4s as an alarm clock cause it is dead before I wake up. iDroid will be ready next year for iphone 4s,, and sooner for the iPhone 4...

I've got the same problem with my iphone 4s. The only way I can make it till the end of the day is by switching off my 3G connection. I tried everything else without luck!! This is really nasty.

My 4s has been off the charger for an hour... It dropped to 75%... This update *****

Techguy is just a spoiled brat with his information and advice, he hasn't even given the information that a person would give if they were to have been having hands on a Mac since 3rd grade. If you were who you say you were, you would not just say, it's a virus, buy a new iphone. Obviously this is a trick to advertise the posts with 12 year old suggestion trolIing. I looked over constantly for possibilities. Hopefully this isn't a trick from Apple to get people to get the 5 up. I know this can become a drag, and this might be something you have heard. Disable Cellular data, it is below Bluetooth in the Settings app, first thing you see. This is a major reason of the drainage of battery life, also slide down to the bottom of it and it will say, reset statistics, press it. It can be very annoying to go in and go out of, but what can we do? Hopefully we will only have to do this to get by until Apple hears us. If you guys need any more questions I will try to get it for you. (I love helping people )

When I first upgraded to ios7, I like all other 4s owners had battery issues (going flat by midday without use). I turned off all the recommended features and done the hard reset and admit performance improved to levels similar (but never as good) to IOS6.

Since the 3rd patch release, my phone has gone back to battery drain. My phone was on charge all night and has lost 50% in just under 4 hours with no use!!

A couple of weeks ago, I was getting a full day out the phone and going to bed at around 23:00 with about 15%.

I have booked an apt at the Apple store, but don't have high hopes. Premium phones should not be draining within 8 hours, without heavy use and all features disabled.

I found that this new update has fixed (at least) the battery consumption while in standby, by returning to acceptable values. Look at the image (usage 4 hours and 38 minutes, standby 2 day and 5 hours):

someone needs to drop a lawsuit on apple... not that anything will come of it... and its only 50$ to drop a small claims court... but the thing is Apple will then have to respond. Not only that but it will produce a lot of attention.

Highly recommend everyone reposts this every time they attempt to censor this.  This is exactly what needs to happen.  It would set an excellent precedent.  If they don't show up you will get a summary judgement.  Can you enforce it?  Maybe not but it would be a symbolic victory that might generate the right interest and attention.

Apple has been creating horrific bugs with iOS releases, refusing to acknowledge them and then stiffing the customers with the problem.  I had the same thing with an iPhone 5.

Apple really is company that does not stand behind their products at all.  I've experienced the worst warranty/repair/replacement service in my entire life with Apple.

Interesting suggestion, amazed it hasn't been censored! I erased all content again last night and did the restore from iTunes. Performance has greatly improved and phone has lasted all day. Clearly IOS 7 buggie!! But don't think I should have to be restoring my iPhone every several weeks to get it to work as expected!!

Has anyone tried turning off the Spotlight Search feature? Turning it off seems to have improved my battery life ...

I think that iCloud syncing would be the cause of battery drain.

When my 4s was on 7.0.3 it has not these problems.

Battery life was good, over one full day and during night, in airplane mode, it loses only 1 or 2% life.

After update, immediately has a great decrease battery performance, draining 60% in 2 hours, becomes very hot (a significant CPU work, I think...).

as far as I am concerend it seems to be better with ios 7.0.4 from my side. have still 75 % left where normally I was about 50% the days before.... still ridiculous!!!!

Look at this.  Somebody made a fun and educational stop motion animation about exactly what's going on here!
