ios11 has destroyed my SE [MERGED]

Upgraded my daughter's SE with no complaints - I wonder if doing a secure backup then a factory reset might help you (restore the backup after the reset).

Also, what size and how much of it is used?
 
While it seems from the responses that it's possible the OP experienced a corrupt backup. Their best option is probably doing a fresh install which everyone knows is a huge PITA.

That said, I'm still keeping my SE on iOS 10.3.3 for the time being. Mainly because of some of the bugs that iOS 11 still has.
 
no reason to assume your last backup is corrupted. and check, you might have an earlier backup you could use. but not a global issue; my SE has never been better; stable, fast... and good battery life (i am on the current beta).
 
My sister has an iPhone SE on iOS 11 and she doesn't experience any of that. Perhaps a trip to Apple will help?
 
So far i tried to hard reset & reset all settings - nothing helped. The only thing left to try is factory reset, and restore from backup, but since i did the last backup after i upgraded to 11.0.3 , im afraid my backup is corrupted as well. the only thing i can try to do is factory reset and start from zero, but as everyone knows its a huge headache.

PS, this happened on 64GB SE version (40GB full). The newer one im having (128GB) is still on iOS10.3.3 .
 
I have a D111AP 7 Plus and no major problems, just typical iOS 11 annoyances - of which there are many.

D101AP=bad=Gavincurtis
N71AP=bad=Artur

Thanks simonet. How you liking that landscape keyboard? Shouldn't take too much more info to put the SOC rumor to rest.
[doublepost=1508918384][/doublepost]Hi, my post was removed because it was a cut and paste from another area here at macrumors. Sorry about that moderators. There is a bit of a rumor I would like to substantiate or purge. The reason why iOS11 works on some phones and virtually bricks others could be related to the SOC (CPU) version you have.

Could you download "iphone batter memory system status monitor" which can determine what chipset you have, available memory, CPU performance etc and it doesn't cost anything. once opened, go to the "System" tab at the very top. In that tab under "Device" you will see "MODEL". To the right of that is your SOC (CPU) part number of your phone. Please let me know what CPU you have and if iOS11 worked well for you or pretty much bricked your phone.

Thanks.

Killed my 6S.. somehow apple is still signing the downgrade for it. Back on 10.3.3

Killed my 7, stuck in boot loop. Occasionally it will load the OS and everything works fine with lock up for 10-30 seconds here or there and battery drain. Every once in a blue moon the phone restarts and stays in boot loop for hours before opening again. No solution from Apple other than to replace the phone that is 2 weeks past warranty. The call center was so overwhelmed that hold times were 2hours+

How did you come to that conclusion? There aren't many steps that a users can do incorrectly when reinstalling iOS.

But with their data in the phones and apps and restores from backup there can be something odd that happens, as is basically the case when it comes to computers at times. Seeing that most of the issues that were described are fairly extreme and unique it would seem like the likelihood is that there's something unique to the particular installation and device and doing a reinstall to troubleshoot it can be a good idea given issues like that.

iOS 11 is hopeless on everything so unsurprising it's bad on the SE. I'm glad I downgraded mine.

Seems hardly hopeless on everything for many. Certainly some issues here and there, as is fairly typical for early versions of a major updates, but nothing catastrophic or even close to it for most it would seem. Seems like even a number of people in this thread have mentioned not having a bad experience with an SE.

Thats because people have low expectations. iOS 11 is very under featured for iPhones, so there really shouldn't be much of speed or responsiveness drop off for iPhones yet there is.

Show me an iPad 9.7 or even Pro 9.7 which doesn't jitter under iOS 11. A lot of people don't notice this stuff. Doesn't mean its not there. Its a joke Apple can't get animations to render properly on processors and GPUs they bang on about being desktop classed. I thought they'd turned a corner with iOS 10 because despite a lot of new iPhone features, it ran very well even on the oldest hardware at release. iOS 11 doesn't even run well on brand new hardware.

Realistically similar type of complaints and threads were around in the early days of iOS 10 as well (and 9, 8, etc.), and then things improve for more and more who are experiencing or noticing issues by the time more and more updates come out for those versions so much that by the last update it's usually almost (if it actually) praised as an example of perfection even by many of those who were not happy about it in the initial versions.
