    Is it just me or is anyone elses phone dying faster than ever since updating to 3.0.1?

    I've also been having problems with my home button, I've been having to hit it 2-3 times to get a response, anyone else?

    My phone has been fine after the update. Try a restore as you may have a rougue app.

    Little helpful tip for those of you updating to 3.0.1 and having horrid battery life. When updating do not restore from your old backup file. Start as new... sure it's a little more time consuming but it will work wonders... trust me.

    Not a restart, a full restore via iTunes.

    This is a long know problem with people doing updates instead of a restore. If you just update your iPhone OS, then you stand a chance of having your iPhone run duplicate processes, which will of course consume a lot more batter life.

    So, just like what has been said above, restore and set it up as a new phone, then sync.

    I did a restart and it worked great, still have 25% battery left!!!! Could be better but not bad. Must have been a rogue app.
