Samsung Galaxy S2 - battery problems after software update

Hi, my wife and her sister both updated their S2s to the new version of the software and since then (about 1 month) their battery life has shortened by at least half!!! Is it possible to roll back to a previous version or is there a fixed version of the software? Thanks

    Back up your contacts, messages and anything else you need with either MyBackup Pro or Titanium Backup and then do a factory reset on the device.
