Battery drain and slow charge issues

I had my iPhone 4 replaced at an Apple Store 2 days ago, and this afternoon the battery began draining quickly and charging very slowly.
It also heats up quickly, any help?
Thanks

If tried techniques to get the battery to act right, such as rebooting by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts, and those things haven't helped, take the iPhone and iPad to the Apple store genius bar and have the technicians test them to see if there is a hardware fault. Do that before the warranty runs out so you are covered.

When my battery is drained and I charge it, it doesn't automatically switch on

When my battery is drained and I charge it, it doesn't automatically open.

It definitely should turn on by itself. But if it doesn't, I doubt the problem is too severe. Try turning it on by holding the power button for a few seconds, like normal. If that does not work, try holding both the power and home buttons at the same time for 10+ seconds, until you see the Apple boot logo.

Macbook Pro battery drained and now it won't turn on

I have an early 2012 Macbook Pro. A couple of weeks ago my charger broke and I couldn't get a new one straight away, so the battery drained and it shut off. I don't normally let that happen, but there wasn't a whole lot I could do about it this time. I have a new magsafe charger now and the LED is solid orange as normal, but the macbook still wont turn on even though it's been charging for a good 50 minutes now. It sounded like it was booting up a couple of times and the first time the screen lit up grey and the loading animation (grey bars) showed up, but now it's just black again. I know it's going to take longer than normal to charge after the battery being completely drained for so long, but is it normal for it to take so long or does it sound like it's bolloxed?

Try a SMC reset:

Does the iPad mini have the same slow charging issues as my "New IPad"?

I'm considering returning my New IPad and purchasing the iPad mini due to the slow charging issues with my New IPad. Does anyone know if the mini has the same issue? Does anyone know if Apple is planning on offering a different charger for the New IPad? I love everything about the New IPad except the charging system. I can't use it as much as I would like to. It's so disappointing!!!!

I also have issues when charging my brand new iPad mini. I got astonished when I tried to charge it yersterday and realized it took more more time to charge than my iPod Touch 4th generation, which really charges very fast! It even did'nt charge completely so when I got home I put mi iPad mini to charge overnight, at about 12.30 AM, when it had about 13% charge left.
This morning I got shocked when I saw at 6 Am that it hadn't charged completely. Just 96%, which means the iPad mini can't be totally charged during a 6 hours charging session. So after reading all these posts I get disappointed with this huge issue for iPad users. How can we endure such a long charging sessions for a device that you normally use all the time. For instance, when you're traveling you always need to charge the iPad very quickly. Just a few travelers would allow their ipads to rule their schedules on such a bizarre way!
I was also worried because I don't live in the States. It was my brother who bought it for me, so taking my device to the Apple Glass Cube in New York or any other retailer or just to have this issue technically solved is a big problem for me! So international customers who think to buy this wonderful mini tablet should consider that such a marvelous device is dealing with an absurd and disappointing big problem related to an aspect customers would hardly imagine.

When I got a new iPhone5, I experienced short battery life, and system sofware issues were not the cause. The camera also takes a blury picture regardless of lighting and I have the black one. Has anyone else experienced similar problems?

What makes you so sure it isn't software?
The camera can be focused by take the point of focus on the touch screen.
If it is new as you said, it should be under warranty. Make a Genius Bar appointment or contact Apple with a repair request.

Battery drained and will not charge

the battery on my droid ultra completely drained last night and I plugged it in to the wall charger this morning and it is not responding. Has anyone let their battery drain all the way ans had issues getting it to charge? It has been plugged in for about 30 minutes and the screen is black and the device will not turn on.
thanks!

ddvh, let's bring life back to that device. I recommend that you allow it to charge for approximately 15 more minutes until the battery charging icon populates on your screen. If the device still does not power on, you will need to press/hold the power and volume up button to reboot your device. Keep us posted. We're here to further assist you if needed.

LG G2 kitkat SEVERE battery drain and performace issues

After updating my LG G2 to kitkat the other day, my phone performance and battery life have been absolutely awful. Previously I could go 24 hours on a charge with moderate use, and now I'm lucky if I get 4 hours with it sitting on my desk unused with battery saver on. I also get stuttering while navigating, running apps, etc., and it freezes often. I can hardly even use my phone at this point. Anyone else encounter these problems? Anyone know what's wrong?

I'm having the exact same issues along with many others. I can no longer send or receive texts either, answering a call is a nightmare. My phone used to charge to 100% in about 1.5 hours and last for roughly 20-24 hrs. At the moment it's been charging 1.5 hours and it just hit 17%. Within the first hour of the update my phone went from 93% to 15%. Once it died, I plugged it in and it charged decently fast back to 100% so I unplugged it and sat down and watched it drop a percent per minute until it died on me again. I ran task killers and deleted apps and managed to get 3 hours of life off the 3rd charge of the day and now it's not even wanting to charge fast at all. It drains faster than it charges. I plugged it in to charge yesterday at 4 pm. At 2 am it was finally fully charged and I unplugged it to see if it was gonna behave and it was dead by 7:30 am. I was asleep during that entire time frame so it was NOT being used. Oh and it now overheats so badly that it burns me if I touch my face/ear to it.
I want to try a hard factory reset but I have over 1000 photos to back up and now my computer will no longer recognize the phone, it won't install any drivers, it's all errors. So I tried Wireless Storage which I already had set up and was working great and now it won't even turn on on the phone. It's useless. So I resorted to the Verizon Cloud and I can't access any of my photos now anywhere else other than my phone because to activate my account I have to receive the temp password from Verizon in a text but it wont send or receive texts at all on either wifi or data. Kitkat as good as bricked my 3 week old phone. My hubby's phone on the other hand, is working just fine post update. ARGH!

Ipod touch 2g not used for months, battery drained and taking way too long to charge

I had an ipod touch 2g that got wet a couple of months ago. They were inside a jacket pocket when the rain started pouring. After that, the screen only turn white when turned on. I just had the LCD replaced, but since i havent used it in months, the battery has been drained. I plugged it into my PC to charge for a couple of hours already, but its still not enough. The lowbatt icon is there, but iTunes still doesnt recognize it despite being plugged in for a few hours already.
Does it really take this long to charge an ipod touch that has been completely drained and not used for months? I'm worried there might be other problems besides the LCD when it got wet before. Should I have it checked again for battery charging problems? Or am i just being impatient?

I tried charging it through the adapter, still got the same problem. So i had it checked again and the battery apparently also needed to be replaced. Haven't had any problems with it since then!

IPod touch 5th generation battery drained and restored after app is closed

I got my iPod Touch 5th generation about a year ago. I noticed it has since had an issue on the battery life that I thought was common so I did not do anything about it.
The issue my iPod has is that whenever I use an app that requires immense energy to function, the battery drains real quick. But after I closed the app, the battery life fills up again like it has only used a little. Video recording especially drains the battery the most where after 10 minutes of recording, it pops up saying 20% battery left from fully charged and at one point it even shuts down itself. But when it was turned on, the battery life is still around 75%. Before it runs on iOS 8, the issue is more apparent although it still exist now with the latest update.
I did not know until just recently that I found out it is a big issue where I could not have a video recording that can last longer than 10 minutes or so. Is there anything I could do to solve this? Are there anyone else out there that has this sort of issue?

Hey Leowjowee-
I'm really sorry if I'm about to state the obvious, but have you tried fully resetting the iPod touch and setting it up like it's brand new?
It's a crappy answer, but sometimes these are device specific issues, and other times, it can happen just because the kinks haven't been worked out of a new upgrade. I work in consumer IT, and the first thing I would suggest to a client with this issue (especially after an upgrade from one version of the operating system to another), would be to restore (reset the iPod to factory specs) the iPod touch, set it up like the day I bought it, only with the upgraded operating system, and see if there's still an issue. Sometimes, doing an upgrade like you probably did to get from iOS 7 to iOS 8, where it keeps all your previous settings from the last operating system, can cause bugs in the new code.
Here's instructions for a reset: http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201252
Keep in mind that this will completely erase any content you have on the iPod touch, so be careful to make sure you have a backup of the device before you do anything. You can back up your device to iCloud or your computer with these instructions: http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203977
iOS 8 is brand new, and I'm sure Apple is working out the bugs - but these things happen...

Iphone5 battery drained and wont open

I just bought the iphone 5 last year and it was so good everything runs so fine. Until i upgraded the software to IOS 7 , i started having problems on charging , battery drained too fast and it wont open anymore. The most irritating was when the battery left uncharge or drained, it wont open nor charge anymore. I've tried using different original cable charger but it wont work. I'm so ****** with this phone.

Try removing the battery to try and reboot the device. It's possible that something else went wrong with the device. If that doesn't work I would contact your wireless service provider.

Battery drain..Keep Awake Issue

I'm having occasional issues on my Maxx with my battery draining.alot of times its over night even know I use the Smart Action for this not to happen.The times it drains,its like 50% just over night,and when I check it its always when the Android OS is at a high percentage and when I check that its when the Keep Awake is at like 8 hrs.Sometimes it doesnt do it and the Keep Awake is at like 2 or 3 hrs.Not running anything different than before this started about a month or 2 ago.Any suggestions as to what makes the Keep Awake does that?
With my normal phone useage,I used to get between 45-55hrs on a charge.now i'm lucky to get between 25-32.Whats draining it?Like I said I havent changed anything on it..apps or anything.
Thank u for the help,
Chris

Sounds like you've been doing great on checking your battery use raider33. Smart Actions is a great place to start with managing your battery, but here's a few other great tips that may help with the battery usage for your Razr Maxx: http://bit.ly/woicoV
If there's a major change in your phone's performance after a big overhaul like a firmware upgrade, it may be that some of the applications are not communicating with the update right and the phone may need to be reset. Try the battery tips in the link above first. If all else fails, the master reset is a great way to start fresh and reload everything with the new firmware update too. Here's how to go the reset if you need: http://bit.ly/tQ0nkT

Lumia 920 - 3G & WiFi - Battery drain and device h...

I have been using my Lumia 920 since February and for the past 3 weeks I have noticed that while using 3G or WiFi the devices heats up a lot and battery drain is rapid.
I am not sure if the charging speed has increased as well, especially when connected to a computer.
I have disabled all apps in the background, NFC is disabled, done a soft reset and done a hard reset. The issue remains.
I am not sure if any update has caused this issue. This however is something I have not experienced previously and is constant now.
I have the 1308 update installed.
Please reply if there are any possble solutions to fix the issue. I do use 3G and WiFi on a daily basis for both professional and personal use.

Sory cjlim, but I cannot see any Nokia Suport tab below. Could you please provide link to the Nokia support? I was actually redirected to this forum from Czech Nokia site through link called "Go to technical support forum".
Anyway, back to the topic. I use multiple apps that are syncing (skype, whatsapp, viber, push notification of emails form exchange server, sync of emails from na imap server every 2 hours, weather app checking wheather 2x a day).
The point is that once my mobile network is set to 2G mobile data (EDGE) the battery stands for almost 2 days which is acceptable battery life. Once I let the phone use 3G mobile data (HSDPA in my case) the phone does not last for even full day. And I am using the phone in absoluely the same way in both cases. Hence I cannot imagine that a application would be killing battery only when on 3G data but would be behaving nicely when on 2G data.
I must also note that my wifi is always ON (no matter if I am on 2G or 3G) so the data transmission should primarilly be done via wifi, right? And even if I am whole day home (working from home office) connected to home wifi network the battery is draining fast when mobile data are allowed on 3G (when on 2G everything is fine).
I wonder if some hardware component responsible for 3G data communication could be faulty in my Lumia820 (considering not so many people are experiencing this issue)?

IPhone 4 battery drain and incredibly hot

About two weeks ago I went in and got a new iPhone 4 because my old one bricked. A couple days ago I noticed that my phone was getting extremely hot while plugged into the wall charger. Ever since then the battery has been draining extremely fast (it went from 100% to 61% in about an hour and 15 minutes) with not that much use. Even on standby and off I have noticed my battery dropping significantly. When plugged into my laptop I have found the phone still drains even when it says it is charging, and when plugged into the wall or my car charger it chargers about a third of the speed that it used to. And when charging in any way, as well as just using it for more than 5 min, the phone heats up like crazy.
I have looked through many threads and tried different "fixes." I have turned off ping, safari and game center, deleted my 1 yahoo email account, have reset network settings and when none of that worked I restored as a new phone without syncing anything at all (no contacts/apps/music). I even went into my local apple store yesterday and explained my problem, all the "genius" said was that everything appeared to be fine and that since I just restored it I should give the phone a couple days and see how the phone does. After complaining a bit more he decided to try to switch out my battery with a new one in hopes that that was the problem, even though what I described sounds more like a software or processor error to me. After a day with the new battery the phone does not work any better and I am still experiencing the same problems.
I am currently on iOS 4.3.5 and on an iPhone 4 32gb without anything other than what comes default on the phone (no extra apps/contacts/music). Any help is welcome!

Take it back. There's definitely a problem.
