A new problem was found on the newly released third beta version of iOS 7. The software causes hot and battery drain to iPhone 4S.

It seemed that the overheating on battery problems have not been fixed in the iOS 7 Beta 3. The iPhone 4S running iOS 7 beta 3 seems to get hot when using 3G, or other cellular data abilities but less hot when using Wi-Fi. Moreover, users experienced fast battery drain when they installed the latest beta version.

It is worth noting that some people have been able to fix the iPhone 4S and iPhone 5 battery drain after performing a soft reset.

In a nutshell, you can fix the battery drain on iOS 7 by performing a clean install but make sure you back everything up first. This fix should also work with the iPhone 5, 4S and 4 running iOS 6 as well.

Apple released iOS 7 beta 3 yesterday, which is exactly two weeks after the second beta version came out. The release is in line with earlier speculation that the company planned to dole out betas in two-week cycles.

Apart from the aforementioned issues, the new version includes some general performance improvements and fixes a number of issues that had cropped up in the second beta, including problems with iCloud, AirPlay, and the Messages application.

The user interface received a few tweaks as well, including more transparent folders, redesigned music controls, and the calendar now shows which days you have events on. The update also brought with it enhancements to FaceTime and a better Siri voice.

It is normal for beta versions of the iOS to still have issues and problems so Apple can still fix before it releases the final and official version of the software. It is standard protocol for Apple to release several beta versions of its operating software before the official version will be released to the public. Apple initially announced that the official iOS 7 will be released this fall.

The official iOS 7 will be available to your iPhone and iPad this fall but beta versions of the new iOS are now available for download.
