Hi all,

Recently, I updated my iPhone 4, my wife's 3GS to iOS 4.3.1 through iTunes.
When everything is done, the phone rebooted properly but all my data and Apps was still there (*) even I haven't restore or re-sync the phone.
I thought I need to restore from backup or re-sync to get those data back? No?

The same thing happened again when I update to iOS 4.3.2 last night.

Is this normal?

* Only Cydia icon disappeared and I have to jailbreak again.

Checked the "About" page and it is indeed updated.

The reason I ask this because I'm afraid I had an incomplete update?
As the 3GS seems to be draining battery very fast and "Usage" and "Standby" showing the same amount of time.
I have to randomly toggle switches around and sometimes it back to normal, then a few days later it strike again!

I remember I had once "Restore" the phone and I have the option to choose either setup as new or restore from backup.
"Update" the iOS does not have these options?

Thank you.

OIC.... my ignorance... haha....



Oh~ look like I frightening myself...

By the way, does anyone have a solution on battery drainage issue on my 3GS?

I've done the following test so far:
• Turned off Push Notification
• Turned off 3G
• Turned off Cellular Data
• Turned off Wi-Fi
• Turned off Location Service
• No email account was setup
• Did the Reset Network Settings option

It is draining battery even I go into Airplane Mode!

Me too had this issue, I even restored the phone (3GS), and it worked ok for a few days then this happens again!


Thanks for your information, my wife's phone was indeed turned data off at all times, will try this method and hope it helps!
She don't have data plan, hope this will not cause bill shock!

This is funny, hahaha...

By the way, I forgot to mention, just last week after I restored the phone, I choose "Setup as new", but the problem still appear.

I remember when the time I stick to 4.1, many apps in App Store are not supported...
But anyway, I'm also considering going back to 4.1, but too lazy to do it, maybe wait a few more weeks...
You see, switching Carrier Data off we also losing MMS capability.
I tried edit the carrier.plist file, but still can't disable WAP data while keeping MMS.
