For what it's worth, my 12 Promax on 14.6 B2 just showed 1603/4094. IMHO, battery for me is better than 14.5.

11 PM. I have never done this kind of tests. I had to buy Geekbench 5. Is result ok?

Make sure you restart your device after upgrading. I upgraded to 14.5.1 and was completely fine until I restarted my phone. I'm hoping 14.6 B2 would be fine.
 
12 PM 512. Restarted my phone at least once since upgrading to 14.5.1.

This is disappointing, since 14.5 was buttery smooth and I was hoping to stay off the beta train.. 14.6b2 here I come

Just had a discussion with Apple Support person (gosh some of these folks are good at what they do 😆👍). After he did a screen share and we tried a ‘reset’ he has escalated the problem. It seems they have quite a few similar problems. It seems devices without a SIM card are not effected, therefore it’s mainly iPhones.

The Apple rep was not keen on doing the 14.5.1 upgrade via a connection to a Mac, better to get the OTA upgrade working.

My thoughts are there will be an iOS 14.5.2 to fix this problem.

I am seeing the same problem when attempting to update to 14.5.1.

Will hold off until there is more info on this issue.

On IOS 14.5.1, I have banner option for incoming calls, but I have noticed when I get a call via a third party app like Whatsapp, I get the banner notification when I receive a call but always the full screen call display in the back ground as well, I think this started on IOS 14.5.
 
Also sin IOS 14.5 and still on IOS 14.5.1, I am unable to delete certain apps from backing up on icloud even though I have deleted the app and turned off the app to back up in my icloud settings on my phone, it automatically turns back on even though the app is deleted and I keep turning it off.
 
does it fix t-mobile cellular data problem?
What is the problem? I'm tmo and haven't noticed any issues at all, other than 14.5 wasn't good on battery. This seems like it's made the battery life a bit better.
 
I noticed that "Find My" is running in the background 24/7 and is number one on my battery usage list. Do you think it could be related to my Airtag?
Noticed this also since getting my AirTag, only happens while the phone is on charge. No change in battery life though.

As far as I know, it only affects T-Mobile no credit check plan customers who have iPhone 12 models running iOS 14.5 and newer. Cellular data won’t work on either 5G or lte. Can ONLY make phone calls and text.

Reddit post

I had noticed this issue and reported to Apple in iOS 14.5 beta 2 cuz it basically made my phone useless without WiFi.
But They haven’t fixed it even in 14.5.1.

I found a fix to the cpu lag issue.
Download the IPSW for your phone and manually update it through iTunes (hold shift + click update). Something is problematic with certain OTA installs.
I rebooted multiple times, my device and gb scores are back to normal.

Download the IPSW for your phone and manually update it through iTunes (hold shift + click update). Something is definitely wrong with the OTA files.

Wasn't a universal problem, though - mine was OTA and not a problem on my 12PM.

Since updating to IOS 14.5.1, randomly the brightness of the screen flickers darker then light a notch even though I have auto brightness turned off on my iPhone 12 Pro
 
Delay in updating the screen time widget. If you look at the widget, then one time, click then there will be another time.
 
There is a problem with the timer. If the lock screen is 30 seconds and the timer is 30 seconds, then the timer will not work. If the timer is on for 29/31 seconds and the lock screen is on for 30 seconds, the timer will trigger. If you block it manually, it will also work. Problem on the current version 14.5.1.
