It’s not recommended to try this trick for those who has no experience in cellphone repair. Also, your warranty will be voided once the phone is disassembled.
4. Wait until Apple to release the updated software.
To fix the issue, users must either wait for their device’s battery to die, or disconnect it temporarily, which causes iOS to reset the clock. An iTunes restore also works, but can cause data loss if you do not have a recent backup.
