There were a number of issues that cropped up with the recent iOS 6.1 release and it looks like Apple are working on an update that should eradicate these. Reports of issues following new iOS updates are nothing new and there have been some issues with almost every major iOS release. The latest iOS 6.1 release seems to have plenty of issues though.
Degraded battery life is something that we have all become very used to with new updates but it looks like the iOS 6.1 update is proving so bad that carriers such as Vodafone in the UK have warned their customers not to update their iPhone 4S's to the latest version of the iOS citing that there is a 3G data issue post update. Vodafone has asked all their customers to hold off on updating while Apple works on fixing this issue.
It looks like Apple are indeed working on an update and according to one German blog called iFun, iOS 6.1.1 is in development and is currently being tested by carriers and beta testers around the world. This update is believed to be aimed at correcting the data issues that have been reported as well as a popular Exchange bug that has led Yahoo! To disable the ability to manage mobile meetings on iOS devices. These along with battery life issues will no doubt be something that Apple will want to fix as quickly as they can.
Apple updates are often released to address specific bugs or vulnerabilities and many fear that this new release will affect the recently released iOS 6 jailbreak, Evasi0n. This new update will arrive any day and we don't expect any new functionality just bug fixes.
