iOS 9 beta 5/PB 3 Heat Up 5S

[dammerl]

is your 5S overheating problem after fresh install or not ?

My initial overheating/battery-drain problem was after a non-fresh install of b5. But, as mentioned in my post, the battery drain after Reset All Settings (on the non-fresh install) corresponds to the drain that I get on a fresh b5 install.

So, it looks like Reset All Settings can save you from the hassle of a clean install.

Edit/PS: I’m saying “looks like” because there are really too many variables, as simplyjoel pointed out. However, I made sure that the Photo Library wasn’t syncing during the tests.

Any idea what to do with a stuck status bar and apple logo after a "Reset All Steetings"?

Was tuck on approx 5% for over an hour, so I did a two finger reboot and it is still stuck at the same point.

DP5 and my iPhone 6 was running HOT!

Major heating up for me on iPhone 6. I suspected it was caused by third party apps and the way they interact with new api's in iOS9. Which ones, specifically, I can't say, but installing certain apps causes the phone to become nuclear hot, while uninstalling them returns things back to normal. In particular, I've seen it with Google Plus & the Spark Email app.

Take today for example; no issues this morning. I install Spark about midday, and suddenly I've got a furnace in my pocket. I uninstall the app an hour later, reboot, and within an hour everything is back to normal. I install the app again later in the day, and i run the exact same gauntlet of pocket lava i wrestled with earlier on.

This issue has been following me since Public Beta 1, and every time a clean install with no backup allowed me to carry on as normal until I install the next update OTA, then suddenly its hot again and I have to restore as new.

Fresh install, then restore from the backup?

restore through DFU mode.

Do iCloud / iTunes backups and restores work properly now in DP5?

Back during DP2/3, neither iCloud nor iTunes restored properly (I use iCloud Photo Library) and would always error out before completing...

restore through DFU mode.

Thanks guys, will give that a go... Just downloaded the image file

Big heat issues with beta 5 on iPhone 6 Plus. Phone gets extremely hot during charging and in general use when using apps such as Safari and Facebook!

I tried a clean install of 9 Public Beta 3 on my 5s - still heats up.
Ran it for 3 days without any improvement - started heating up as soon as you start using it.

Dropped back to 8.4 this morning.

I found the heating issue on my iPad Air (Wifi+Cell, 32gb), but keeping that 9pb3 - the iphone is my daily driver.

DFU Restore then restore from a backup- absolutely no heat issues here- I even took off my Apple leather case for a day to check. (iPhone 6)

I'll try this and report here

I took my 5S out for a run this morning, out of pure curiosity, to see how the new DB would hold up. Unplugged it (fully charged), ~55 minutes later with run keeper and no music playing it was down to 65% - They really ballsed something up with this beta, it's surprising because it's performing so well on my Air2!

 

[BadMelonFarmer]

did the DFU update and then restore from iCloud ... it is still re-installing all the apps ... it is warm ... but will have to wait and see once all the apps have been re-installed.

iPad Air 2 WiFi with Cell is fine ... no heat issues so far

overheating problem is related to battery consumption because when i used my iPhone in power saver mode, ,my iPhone not much overheat before it had..

Im now tired of installing betas, then rolling back again. I think I'll wait now.

Hey Guys!

Since Public Beta 2 and more so with Public Beta 3 my iPhone 5s has been running very hot as soon as I start using it. I tried a restarted and a soft reset. Also, battery life is horrible compared to other Betas. I am seeing battery drops of 70% in about 2 hours time. Can't leave the house without a charger.

Anyone has experienced the same thing and has a quick fix? Thanks!

PS: I do know this is beta software which is why I am asking for a fix rather then being pissed about it

The first instance is to reset your settings. It will make you do TouchID and WiFi settings and set a few passwords again and see if that helps. The next step is a backup/restore onto a fresh copy. I've just done the settings reset to see first. There is a battery thread already about this.

iOS 9 Beta 5 battery and performance thread!

I remember seeing a thread somewhere around here where turning iCloud backup off/on or leaving it off fixed the hot phone problem.

I'm on a 6+ and PB3 is almost on par with 8.4 so there is something definitely going on with your phone.

It seems to be a lot of people and just the 5S - https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/ios-9-beta-5-heat-up.1906406/

I wouldn't exactly say "a lot of people" that thread has 39 posts, and some of those posts are more that one post by a same person, so really it's less than 39. Probably not even 1% of all people on DP + PB.

Good point. I always thought the overheating came from the friction in the pants pocket ;-) ;-)

No smoke without fire, not everyone using the beta posts here, and just like you, I can pull random figures out of my hat, I'd guess less than 1% of people in the public beta post here.

And we'll ignore all the people moaning in the two huge battery threads

Still getting hot.

So reflashing was a waste of time... Not going to risk the reset settings again.

Will just wait for next update
