This update contains improvements and bug fixes, including:
LTE support for more carriers (complete list of supported carriers at www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/)
Purchase movie tickets through Fandango with Siri (USA only)
iTunes Match subscribers can now download individual songs from iCloud
New button to reset the Advertising Identifier
For information on the security content of this update, please visit this website: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT122

my test

>>5am unplug at 95% off data and wifi
>>12noon wakeup left 93% then on data
>>5.16pm left 47%

quite good compare to 6.02 ....






usage 21min and standby 55min still 100% battery . Tweak battery status too much to convince us can last longer ? hmm.gif hmm.gif

The LTE chips in the ipad4, ipad mini and iphone5 do not support band 7 (2600mhz) of our telcos, I doubt a firmware/software update will change anything for these devices.

I think the LTE icon comes from "Update Carrier Settings" if I m not wrong. which will be delivered automatically once the telcos are ready to support the phone. In order for telco's to support LTE on Iphone 5, they must be using a Bands that supports 2100Mhz and below.

At this moment, Govt only awarded the 2,600Mhz spectrum


Most of us are hoping this update to improve the battery life instead of the LTE support.

Battery life still too early to tell. I believe most of us upgraded to 6.1 when our battery was not full. Let the current battery run down and do a full recharge. Then start monitoring from there.

Slightly improvement on the Maps. But wifi still not so reliable. Sometimes ok, sometimes bad. My Ipad4 and Ipod Touch on the same router have no problem at all with wifi. I think IP5 got hardware problem on wifi. Remove the casing also no difference.

Noticed first thing with ios 6.1

After the erase setting and reinstalling from backup. Normally after that iphone requires u to set back the phone lock codes and icloud password.

Now no need icloud password.

Other than this.. no diff so far.

OTA = Over The Air

means your device updated directly from your device via internet, not connected from itunes or through laptop/computer

no problem, noob or anything just ask, im sure someone will ask.

Call maxis on the no 3G issue after update to 6.1
They only can advise to reset network and reset at their server end.

Lastly restore using iTunes @.@

actually i dont notice any battery issue on my iphone 5, perhaps i am quite astound with its battery performance.

perhaps because it was a big jump for me, from iphone 3g to iphone 5.

im still using 6.0.2
dare not to update 6.1 yet. see others feed back 1st...
i dono what u mean by reset all setting. as in which field of setting?
i did turn off all apps before. i did clear cache history browsing before.
but honestly, i really not sure when it gets heat fast... as far as i can recall, it doesnt happen every single time. but once a while will.
when it happen i just stop using it. i didnt think of checking. so i'll start observ a bit from now on...
but will any situation make it really heaty??? like having all apps running at background? or?
coz i don always rmber to turn off the apps after click home button. so hassles =_=''

did anyone encounter notification delay or not receiving notification at all when people texts u? e.g. whatsapp
you have to actually go in to that app only can see new incoming texts
its 4S ios6 by the way..when using wifi I mean

Because I remember when 5.1.1 using the same settings for everything..when people text me(whatsapp) during my wifi is off..the moment i turn on the wifi..I will receive the notification instantly..but since ios6 even this latest 6.1, I'm not receiving notification liao..I have to go in to the app only can see new texts.

Stupid flaw in IOS 6.1 Home sharing.

Let say if u only install one tv show season ... u wont be able to find the "shared icon in video "
because
the whole episode list is open on that paticular tv show

fix
load another tv show and then unsync it.
only then ure episode list wont open .

So far no issue with my iP4s

it is rumored (most probably true) that updating by phone (software update a.k.a. patching) might result in unjailbreakable iOS 6.1.

If you are going to jailbreak your device (which release soon), then its recommended by using itunes update (shift + restore). Else you may just update via OTA (Setting > General > Update)

better backup to itunes first. but it doesn't matter if you don't mind redownloading them later. tongue.gif
i'm using digi and the push for whatsapp line etc works perfectly for me sad.gif
it is rumored (most probably true) that updating by phone (software update a.k.a. patching) might result in unjailbreakable iOS 6.1.

redownloading to itunes library? inside my iphone the apps still ok and can use right? no need to repurchase from AppStore again, right?

You can download back anytime you want without repurchase again. Just make sure you are on the same apple id.

So the step is just like this?
1. Download the firmware
2. Connect my iphone with itunes
3. Then hit shift + restore ..
4. Then just wait laa?

Depends on what you want to do. If you plan to use stock 6.1 firmware without jailbreaking, then the OTA update is more than enough, but if you plan to jailbreak (rumours has it the jailbreak will be released this Super Bowl Sunday), then you MUST NOT use OTA update.

@pimskeks (one of the founding member of Evad3rs, the team behind the 6.1 jailbreak) has tweeted that if you want to Jailbreak 6.1, you need to use iTunes to update and he did mention that to do a Full Restore (wipe the iPhone clean and restore the iPhone to the latest firmware from the file you download)

Just completed the upgrade for my iphone 5 through reset option in iTune. After restore completed, I have also done the network reset. First thing notice after phone reboot, it shows 3G signal and no longer seeing any E signal. That's a huge improvement. I am on Celcom btw.

Looks like assistive touch issue also resolved. thumbup.gif

Not sure bro...i updated thru OTA

so far 40 mins usage...i m at 95%

is that good or bad i m not sure...


here you go the instruction to reset all settings :

1) Settings - General - Reset -Reset All Settings (No Data Or media will be Deleted)



DO NOT CLICK THE WRONG BUTTON. DO NOT CLICK "ERASE ALL CONTENT AND SETTINGS" [cool.gif

ALWAYS BACKUP BEFORE YOU DO ANY IOS UPDATE OR "RESET ALL SETTINGS"


Good luck!

so far the battery life doesn't seems to differ too much, maybe slightly better as my usage has always been able to last 1 whole day...
other than a few small fixes/bug mentioned by others... seems like nothing much has been improved.
as for wifi, i think there's slight improvement as normally when my ip5 connected to wifi, in standby the wifi will get disconnected by itself, and only when i touch the phone it will "slowly" connects back. now it seems like the connection is slightly better...

I think my battery did improve. I took a few snap shots this morning on my battery (cos i was planning to return the phone to maxis, didnt expect ios6.1 to come out today). All with Wifi + 3G on :


This morning (IOS 6.0.2) - Nothing much, cos driving to work.
1) 7.36am : Usage 34 Minutes / Standby 36 minutes : 88%
2) 7.38am : Usage 39 Minutes / Standby 42 minutes : 86%
3) 7.48am : Usage 46 Minutes / Standby 49 minutes : 83%

Now Night (IOS 6.1) - whatsapping a bit, fb a bit
1) 10.02pm : Usage 1Hr 14 Minutes / Standby 1Hr 18 minutes : 88%
1) 10.02pm : Usage 1Hr 21 Minutes / Standby 1Hr 24 minutes : 86%


------------------------------

Conclusion : I think it improves Battery Life

you have to actually go in to that app only can see new incoming texts
its 4S ios6 by the way..when using wifi I mean

Because I remember when 5.1.1 using the same settings for everything..when people text me(whatsapp) during my wifi is off..the moment i turn on the wifi..I will receive the notification instantly..but since ios6 even this latest 6.1, I'm not receiving notification liao..I have to go in to the app only can see new texts.

Battery life decreases for mine. Previous version, my device only experienced 1% decrease in battery life after 35-40 mins usage. On 6.1, 15mins usage = 95% -.-

Guys, when you measure your usage/standby time, do you normally let your battery run down < 20% then measure?

Also, do you always charge when < 20%?

I don't. It will hurt the battery if done too often.

Btw, I woke up to find my battery drained to 47% at 10.20am from 70+% since 3am. And in the usage there was extra three hours of usage... Ghost used my phone?? O.O

Once you've downloaded the ipsw, you should verify the file's integrity to make sure that the download was not corrupted during the download. You can refer to http://theiphonewiki.com/wiki/Firmware#Global_model_4 for the SHA1 Hash. You can use HashCheck or any other 3rd party tool to get the SHA1 hash of the ipsw.

Okay fellas, my latest feedback on Battery Life

-------------------------------
Last Full Charged : Last night about 10pm and immediately did the upgrade to ios 6.1


Current as off 1.33pm
------------------------

Usage : 5Hours, 45 Minutes
Standby : 16 Hours, 42 Minutes

Percentage left : 24%

Used for Moderate surfing, Fb, calls, Whatsapp, 3G, Wifi and Location service are ON
------------------------

Conclusion : Very happy, previously phone would be about 10% when it hits about 4Hours Usage.

Mine getting worst than before. A bit heavy usage today, download from iClarified & update through iTunes

I'll monitor the outcome with my normal usage 1st. If not need to fresh restore instead of restore from backup.

10 hours usage so far. Still got 57%.
1. About 35 min of location service + 3G for Waze while driving to work. (after that off location service and waze)
2. A bit of facebook, what'sapp, temple run 2, and short call and sms..
Whole day on 3G.

done a full drain and full charge to test out battery life... overall, feels like it improves a little, mostly during standby.before this even standby the battery also will drop quite fast. now seems to drop slower. during usage i think more or less the same...
wifi got slightly better for me... not sure whether all these are due to ios6.1 or not... haha

Went and check with maxis in klcc. The guy mention 6.1 is fully for LTE countries but Malaysia haven't lte country so the firmware not so compatible. But he tried changing the SIM card for me. And say the problem will be less occurring. (Case: no 3G signal keep drop to edge)

Same problem. Maxis line.iphone5. OK on 6.0.1, problem after upgrade to 6.1
Manual network selection helps to get 3G , but after select 3G off, stuck in Edge again, need to go through whole process to get back 3G.
Is this a maxis 3G network settings problem?

After updating to IOS 6.1, I'm unable to connect to 3G. The connection will drop to EDGE. I have  "Reset the network settings", "Reset all Settings" and even factory restore the iPhone. Nothing works....I am using Maxis. Previously it was working fine...in 6.0.2. Any Maxis user experiencing this?

After updating to 6.1, I still have to restart the phone to get the 3G signal back after I exit the lift. Disabling and re-enabling cellular data/3G/airplane mode did not help either, only way to get it back is to off and on the phone back. Faced this on 6.0.1 as well.

Selecting Manual Connection is only a Temp solution to connect to 3G connection. Where there is no 3G it drops back to EDGE and does not connect to 3G automatically. Enable/Disable 3G does not help. This is very frustrating since I did not face this is 6.0.2. So its either the software or Maxis. DiGi, Celcom users are you facing this issue after the update to 6.1?

Guess they are not the same problem.

Problem faced by systemX = NO 3G/EDGE/0 AT ALL after leaving lift or bla bla bla.. ( Happens in 6.0.1 and 6.1 )

Problem faced by others = Unable to get 3G, always dropped to EDGE after updating to 6.1

Just called Maxis, and the person over the phone told me that they are having reception issues with the nano sim and are still working on it. The workaround for now as suggested by the person would be to just restart the phone (for my case) or call them and get them to refresh my network location.

Hi guys. Newbie here... Jz got my Ip5 recently and software has updated to 6.1 as well. My concern is the battery drained 1% per every 2min while browsing with 3G (3G bar in full, location on, siri off, email manually fetch). Fyi, 170+ of apps parked in my Ip5. May i know whether this is the root cause? I have done the full resetting for several times and cycle charged as well but still facing the same issues.

If this is consider as 'common' for Ip5, then i fine with it but what i have worried if this is the defective 1. Frankly, i not really wish to go for replacement as i wonder that cosmetic issue for Ip5 has solved? I found that the 1st unit having cosmetic issue in Maxis when come to activation, they have replaced me the 2nd unit on the spot with the t&c that i need to bear the risk if the 2nd unit is worst than the 1st unit with no more on the spot exchange, other than send in for warranty claimed. Unfortunately, defective for 2nd unit totally unacceptable with a long scratch at the back for almost 7cm, apple logo also come with many scratches... I have query them whether this is the 'repacking' of rejected units, with no choice i have go back for my 1st unit...

2) Power Bank

But i still love my IP5...cos it's Fasttttttttttttttttttttttt...batttery also draining fasttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt hahaha..

samething

any os (windows, mac os, android, IOS etc) + junk + user who doesnt how to maintain

will always result in poor performance.

introduction of smartphones means ppl have to start maintaining it.

Although apple says dont need.. theres still a lot of junk because of apps and they tend to interfere with background running etc..

for me 3g still superb... so far ok for 3-4 hours worth +2 hours talk etc..... with normally batter from 5am to 10pm left 30 percent.

3G on, wifi on, Bluetooth on, location on. Battery not cycled yet after the update.

I had to loop YouTube to finished up the battery. Seems like standby time is improved. If you use the phone, it would drain like normal.

Nothing miracle here. But standby drain is improved. On Maxis, no 3G problem.

Maxis CS at klcc, Partly they blame iOS say that the updates mostly for LTE telco. But they still change my nano sim and tell me it shouldn't have much problem already after this. He also told me that maxis is upgrading their service so sometimes will not have 3G signal

I'm using Umobile nano sim and after the software upgrade, my 3G signal is still there and will switch to Edge some times. But when I go to another location, the signal will switch to 3G if available. So no problems on my side.

Could it be carrier-related?

3G on, wifi on, Bluetooth on, location on. Battery not cycled yet after the update.

I had to loop YouTube to finished up the battery. Seems like standby time is improved. If you use the phone, it would drain like normal.

Nothing miracle here. But standby drain is improved. On Maxis, no 3G problem.

guess it is counted at normal..

previously my usage is 6-7 hours with 20++ standy hours..

Now waiting for it to drain up before i able to post result here ... hehe..guess performance will drop after monitoring for few hours..loll

My batt also now become more good then b4

I'm with you also in using Umobile. No problems with 3G after the upgrade.

I think it could be carrier-related.

That could be another possibility. Perhaps those with problem should state whether they're using new nano sim or cut from old micro/normal sim card.

I'm using the new nano sim card provided by Umobile.

You means put the sim card to the other iPhone (I got 2 iPhone5 here)? After that put back the sim card to the 1st iPhone? Then later can the 3G be switch off and on it back? Thanks~

Hi, guys. New Apple user here.
Anyone have a problem updating apps?
App Store notified there are a couple of updates for apps, but when I want to view them in App Store, the Updates page came up blank.
I'm using 4s, by the way.

I agree with the testing method... normally it will only solved for the first time...

disable 3g and enable it again will cause the issue to occur again...

I did have the same situation earlier after upgraded to iOS 6.1

I restarted the phone (hard reset) and only using 3G, it happens to remedy the issue. Hope this will help you.

By 'hard reset', do you mean Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings ?

The 3G toggle doesn't work. It works on 6.0.2 but not on 6.1 Seems to be affecting mostly Maxis users? If DiGi, Celcom and Umobile has no issues then it is the carrier issue.

Apologies as I thought you are well-verse with the term.

Hard reset guide you can refer below link which applies to all iPhone:
Link: http://www.wikihow.com/Hard-Reset-an-iPhone

It works for me and hopefully it works for you as well. Dont worry that hard reset will never erase your data in the phone.

Err.. Yes, am a noob at this. Was an Android user. Haha..
Thanks for your help. I'll definitely give it a try tonight.

As for the battery usage, I still can't say much about it.
Will keep monitoring and report later.

it is iOS problem.. Apple Geek tweak some data into the 4G and 3G network and i beleive, it mess up the 3G connection .. does not imply to alll Ip5 user.. only with certain firmware i suppose..

by judging the way people complain there.. hope it will get attention from Apple about this...

I upgraded to 6.1 yesterday and I disabled all 3G/WIFI/SIRI.

Battery was at 100% from 7am-7pm.

I think for this Iphone5, u should only enable 3G/WIFI when u want surf the net. If u are working and only receive calls and SMS, having basic phone features should be adequate.

I believe that the 3G issue is Maxis related. My phone is able to switch from 3G/Edge automatically now. Network is set to automatic.
On the first day my iPhone refused to switched to 3G after the OTA upgrade. As of now, 3G toggle doesn't really work(could be iOS issue).

Maxis do have awesome speed. But, to be honest, their coverage is not wide enough. Still the same old problem, at my office - 3G (great speed), at my house downstair - Edge (jialat speed), at upstair - 3G (acceptable speed, with disconnection sometimes). FYI, my location is at Klang town & my office's distance to my house is only 2 - 3 km away.

Actually I m Celcom and Digi user before.

Celcom i m suffering slow speed in my hometown, the speed is ok after 12-1am??

Digi - the most worst 3g provider. Speed slow and not much 3g coverage. i would recommend Umobile which is sharing Maxis 3g

now i use Maxis and Umobile. In some area maxis no 3g but Umobile does but this only will happen when you are in Umobile 3g covered area which is not sharing Maxis 3g. Nothing is perfect, just Maxis 3G covered area is the most. some area might good with Celcom.

manage to get the 3G using the methods mentioned above. Tried yesterday evening at Subang, switch to E then on back 3G, it can auto connect to 3G in about a minute plus. But its not normal still. Now at PJ, E could not auto connect back to 3G. Maxis location problem? or carrier settings problem?

Well, will just have to chase them everyday.

If not, it's just a waste to spend so money on data plan but cannot even enjoy 3G services.

I think for this Iphone5, u should only enable 3G/WIFI when u want surf the net. If u are working and only receive calls and SMS, having basic phone features should be adequate.
Provided most of your contacts list doesn't use whatsapp ... Whatsapp has become so commonly used that my Message app is soon to become redundant. I know it's a matter of opinion but I lol when people suggest to sacrifice data in lieu of better battery life. Might as well don't get a smartphone. Or get a cheaper smartphone that has all the basic smartphone features. They generally consume lesser power. But noooooooo, people want the latest. Even if it means turning off data.

Having a spare charger in office or a car charger would seem to be the most practical solution instead of turning off data, wouldn't you think so?

I suggest you to stop using car charger. I faced/heard alot from my customers. It will eventually fry out the board. If you are lucky enough just the battery. If I were you I wont risk it. Also, overheated problem after using cheap car charger its very common thou.

There are some ppl who wants to save on their phone bill and they have wifi around them so I think it's ok. My parents are like that. Wifi @ home/work place and they're at work or at home most of the time, so they can live with that.

What irritates me most is, some of my friends has data plan but will turn off their data to save battery so basically there is no point msging them on whatsapp. And their main mode of messaging is SMS!

In my case so far, I have the cable in the car for those "in case" moments. But my usage so far have allowed me to use from 730 am - 11pm with still about 20-30% left.

But I do agree with it in some sense. The car alternator already lots of loads and the spike in wattage each time the radiator fan kicks in. Even worse when air cond compressor/fan kicking in and out as well. It doesn't produce a steady current to charge it properly.

Indeed! Maxis 3G internet speed so great, but what is the point if u r having such speed but only certain area got 3G coverage ? It is like u r having 5GB quota but slow internet speed..
