Mmmm - I guess that's why I have a problem then. 😞 Will amend my routines and hope that several full discharge cycles will put us back in order. Thank you.

An additional question: When things are running normally, the charge is generally around 50-60% at the end of the day and I tend to leave my phone on charge overnight most nights. Is this bad practice?

I always recharge using OEM and did do a hard reset when re-calibrating but not in airplane mode etc. Will try a few more cycles over the next week and see if that sorts it. Thanks for the suggestions. 😊

Nearly 18mths old. Bought 2nd hand from eBay in September and has been absolutely fine until about 2 weeks ago.

Having problems with the battery and/or the charge % on my iPhone 4S. The battery charge usually lasts about as long as I would expect it to but the reported charge % is sometimes all over the place. From 100% down to around 50% I would guess it is correct but thereafter in a very short while...

We have one iOS 7 4s and an iOS 6 iPad which share an apple Id and one iOS 6 4s with another apple id. Several iMessages went astray between the two phones. Where we live, 2G is patchy to excellent, 3G is poor to good and wifi hotspots rare. Given that iMessage uses 3G or wifi or sends an SMS...

I recently acquired an Apple dock with a Lyco adaptor together with a CaseMate slim case to use with my 4S. The CaseMate doesn't really protect the edges or the screen. Has anyone used a case with built in screen protector (not a peel on one) that will fit in the adaptor?

Many thanks Scifan57, Phone restored to original, updated to iOS 7 and loaded with backup from other iPhone. Thanks to you and the forum, not a hitch in sight. Very much appreciated Jan

Many thanks. Forgive me, I'm well out of my comfort zone at this level. Am I right in saying that for sheer simplicity, I could simply and without the need for DFU: Connect the phone as is, to itunes and allow it to update to ios7, requiring me to do nothing else. Once updated the phone...

The second hand phone has arrived but it appears to be jailbroken (it has a Cyria app) and is running IOS 5.1 with an IOS 6 update waiting. I haven't plugged it into iTunes yet. I'm not interested in jailbreaks. Can I just update to 7 or do I need to do anything else first? Or of course will...

Excellent news! Thank you 😃

I feared that would be the case! 😉 Other than os, would the restored 32gb still be an exact copy of everything on the 16gb?

Currently I have a 16gb 4s, still running ios6 and I have just bought a second hand 32gb 4s which is still running ios5. I would like to transfer everything to the 32gb phone and would prefer if possible not to upgrade either to ios7 at the moment (still not convinced I want ios7 yet but fearing...

Have finally convince OH that he needs an iPhone and now may be a good time to buy a secondhand 4s or 5 as everybody upgrades. Apart from obvious physical condition, what are the things to check for and are there any little tests that can be done to make sure all is as it should be? If the...

Very valid point! So my question is really are they discontinued?
