10 Things to Know About the iPhone 5 iOS 9.0.1 Update
You Can Still Downgrade | |||||||||||
![]() | |||||||||||
It's important to know that you can still downgrade from iOS 9.0.1 to an older version of iOS. Nothing older than iOS 8.4.1 though. Apple's still signing off on the iOS 9.0 and iOS 8.4.1 updates for the iPhone 5 which means you can still exploit a loophole. If you're having a terrible experience on iOS 9.0.1, this is an option to look into. The loophole will remain open for a limited time (one to two weeks perhaps) so you'll want to dig into the process now. We've put together a guide that will help. | |||||||||||

I am having issues with mine, I’ve been using this charger for almost a year, now it says it’s not compatible and that only happened after I updated my phone. Am I the only one experiencing this?

After serious issue with the iOS 9 update. I tried to update again with iOS 9.01 and it just got worst again. I can’t even get audio when am playing a video on Facebook app. Is they are way I can go back to iOS 8?

Do you think that because all of the older phones never work well with new iOS updates, that it may be an Apple ploy to coax customers to upgrade to a new iPhone to eliminate the problems? I mean shit, we can’t even create a free music playlist, without using data. It fees the same as if I were to get a tax increase, and not even have an opportunity to vote on it. Damn non union shops and communism

Since the last update, my phone sits on my desk and makes phone calls to people. I don’t have to touch it. And while it is sitting on my desk it doesn’t alert me to say I have a call. When I check the phone I find that I have many phone calls and messages and the phone never alerted me. It might be time to switch brands of cell phone

Battery life is exponentially impacted. Prior to the update I would go the whole day and be at 60-70%, now I can’t get to noon without being at 35%. Not impressed.
