According to PhoneArena , on December 19th, Apple released iOS 17.2.1, claiming it fixes "critical bugs" for iPhone users. According to release notes in China and Japan, Apple stated that this update would "address the issue of rapid battery drain."
However, things didn't go as users expected, as the new iOS version experienced issues disrupting connectivity with mobile network providers. Accordingly, on Apple's Support Community Discussions website, many iPhone users complained about problems they encountered after installing iOS 17.2.1.
Many iPhone users have complained about problems after installing iOS 17.2.1.
A user with the username "Hedgehog64" wrote: "After updating my iPhone to 17.2.1, I can no longer connect to my carrier. I've tried resetting the settings but it still doesn't work! I'm very frustrated."
Furthermore, some iPhone users have reported that the update, released to fix battery drain issues, has actually made their phones' batteries drain faster. Specifically, user "vitesh194" shared: "After installing the update, I'm experiencing overheating and battery drain issues on my iPhone 15. Do we have a solution for this problem?"
Alongside the criticisms, some users have also suggested solutions to the problem as follows:
- Reset network settings: Go to the Settings app > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset > select Reset Network Settings.
- To delete a VPN configuration: Go to Settings > General > VPN & Device Management > VPN (tap the "i" next to the VPN configuration name) > Delete VPN.
- Factory reset: This is the last resort if the above methods don't work, and remember to back up your iPhone before doing this. You still access the network settings, but instead of selecting "Reset Network Settings," select "Reset All Settings."
Additionally, one final option is to update to the iOS 17.3 beta version. Since the iOS 17.3 beta release was launched before iOS 17.2.1, installing it may help resolve the network connection issue.
