sigh you guys are lucky la, the 9A406 works for u.
i've updated to 9A406, set up as new phone, tried restore as backup before also, network reset all that jazz,
and im STILL at 34% battery with
4 hours 37 minutes usage
8 hours 12 minutes standby

barely half a day =\

9A406 is only to resolve SIM card problems, not battery.
Don't border updating because its a huge download (800+MB) and the pain of backuping your phone and stuff.
Just wait for 5.1

The best way to resolve the battery issue now is still to do a fresh clean state install without restoring, like a new phone.

And on the issue of Backup/Restore, just avoid using iCloud Backup now, it will be a nightmare waiting for 1 minute for each photo to be restored. Backup via iTunes.

Maybe you should tweak some settings.

This was my 9A405 battery life. I'm yet to test 9A406.

haha yeah i know, but from all the support forums, the 9A406 is giving SOME good results (not all but some) for the battery as well, some of them 1 day+ standby with 9 hrs usage battery still 42% hahahaha damn good
so i thought just try.
i did that, fresh clean state install and i backup via itunes, only contacts via icloud
im just unlucky i guess haha unsure.gif

Some of forumers here have updated their iOS 5.0.1 9A405 to 9A406.

Looking forward for the results smile.gif

Btw, you updated to 9A406 through iTunes or download from ISPW?

Documents & Data is used by 3rd party apps to store files in your iCloud.

e.g. Soundhound (save bookmarks & history), Cute the Rope (save game)

If you don't have any apps using it, you can turn it off.

oh only for TP saving. so it is not a big deal to off it rite?
how do we access icloud from our pc (non mac)

I charge my iPhone 4S @ 100% around midnight. Leaving wifi on, next morning I discover it was at 68%, yet the 'usage' was 46 minutes, despite the fact I went to sleep right after doing full charge.

So how was the phone reduce to that amount of charge when I slept the whole night and the phone was put to standby mode (lock)?

You can't switch between 3G to EDGE network manually on iPhone 4s . Let's hope they bring back that features on 5.1 update. I noticed there's so many users here their phone is on EDGE network all the time, do you guys know that incoming calls will be divert straight into voice mail if your data is active on EDGE/GPRS network ? Don't complaint when your friends start making noise unable to reach you and straight to voicemail all the time.

Make sure your iTunes is in US country. You can't change country using iPhone, need to use iTunes on laptop/desktop smile.gif
