Reverting IOS back

Lisapete · 6 Feb 2017 at 21:19

Got an iPhone 6 Plus and it's really starting to lag. Thinking about reverting it back to some older IOS. Current version is 10.2.1

Anyone else done and got any suggestions.

The old versions aren't signed any more so there's no official way to roll back.

But a 6 Plus shouldn't be slowing down really. Have you tried blatting it and starting again (not restoring a backup)?

There is no way an iPhone 6s Plus should lag. I would completely restore iOS in DFU mode and set it up as a new iPhone.

You've done a clean install of iOS? Did you restore from iCloud backup?
Is it still under warranty?

Been thinking about doing the same mine is having battery issues after the update now before the battery would last me a full day now it's like half a day! Appears to be a problem with the last update looking on the net. Apparently apple are working on a fix on 10.3

Never ever used the iCloud, refuse to use it. Have my own Owncloud via Raspberry Pi. I only use it to dump off the phone photo and videos.

Nah it's out of warranty.
