Iphone 5  switches off when battery still has 15%

After updated to iOS 7,  my iphone 5 always switched off when battery still have 15%. Anybody have the same issues?

Sounds as if the battery may need to be recalibrated. Let the battery drain until it turns off. Then connect the phone to the charger and let it charge to 100%. Disconnect and then use it. It should get it back to a better read. The batteries are designed to shut down when the battery has a certain amount of power left. The battery percentage is not always that accurate.
You can take a look at this link from Apple about batteries. http://www.apple.com/batteries/iphone.html

  • IPhone 4S - phone switches off before battery percentage has got to 0

    iPhone 4S - phone switches off before battery percentage has gone to 0 - usually switches off when it's between 20-30%.
    When I try the force restart it has the battery sign.  (Home Button+Power button)
    When I plug the charger in it starts charging  from the point it shut off, 20-30%.
    Have tried reset all settings.
    Have done a restore and setup as a new phone.
    Any way I can get it start charging from 0 instead of where it shut off (20-30%) ?

    Bit of a trek to the Apple store + i can't really send it off as I'm using it all the time.
    Anything I can do to recalibrate or reset it so battery drains and starts to charge from 0, before I have to go to the Apple store?

    Turn it on.
    If it will not power on, try a reset by pressing and holding the home and power buttons until the white Apple logo appears.

  • MBP shutting off when battery still at 20-30% charge..help a newbie

    I have had my MBP since last march but I have to admit I am a casual user and this is my first mac (meaning I am pretty clueless). I have had zero problems with my MBP until now...
    Over the last several days my MBP has been shutting off unexpectedly as if it is out of battery, but with no warning and the battery indicator says it still has decent charge (usually 20 to 30%). If I plug in the charger and turn it back on it works fine and the charge is where it was when it shut off.
    Does anyone know why it is doing this? I have been only using Safari when this happened. It is very frustrating to unexpectedly lose my place in whatever I am doing, and I want to make sure something is not wrong with my computer.

    Have you calibrated the battery recently (or ever)? If your battery isn't calibrated then your computer can think that there's 20-30% left when in fact it's empty. Also, there's a firmware upgrade to fix MBPs that shut down randomly(that is if it's not a battery problem). Info on the firmware can be found here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macbookproefifirmwareupdate12.html
    and info on calibrating the battery can be found here:

    Hope this helps.

  • HT5047 my phone keeps cutting off when it still has 40-50% battery life

    since i got the phone- i have only seen the battery meter turn red once.  Since then, it would get to 20% and cut itself off.  Now , today it cut itself off at 48%.  Why is it doing this?

    Try recalibrating the battery meter... fully discharge (until it shuts off) and then fully recharge (don't unplug until 100%) to recalibrate the battery meter.  You may need to do this a few times.

  • My z 10 gets switched off when battery levels went below 20%

    10.2.1.2102 my version

    What is happening is that your on-device battery meter is off-sync with the actual battery charge. Connect to your OEM wall outlet battery charger and while still connected and powered on, remove the battery a minute to reboot. After reboot leave to fully charge to 100%.
    Thus will reset the false charge reading. You may need to do perform this procedure 2-3 times.

  • Iphone 4 switches off

    my iphone 4 switches off when i insert the sim. dont know what to do??

    Just want to inform you, that you are not alone. I wish to report the same problem. My brand new iPhone4 can not be switched on in the normal way. I have to press the on/off button and the home button for 10 sec. Phone restarts with the apple logo, than operates normally as long as i keep it awake. When i switch it off, it can be switched on for only 1 min. After 1 min it can not be switched on again, it has to be restarted by pressing the on/off button for 10 sec to restart it from scratch. This must be a serious hardware/software problem. Phone is not usable, I have to return it to the provider (T-Mobil Germany).

    Hello s0ha1b
    If all you get is the Apple logo and it powering off, then the next step is to put your iPhone into recovery mode and then use iTunes to restore it. If you have a back up, then you can put that on there to once the restore is complete.
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device

  • IPad 4 switches off when i am using it, even when battery is fully charged.  Restore function (holding down both buttons) often does not work.  Cannot power up iPad.  I have updated software, restarted computer, but no success.  Please help

    IPad 4 switches off when i am using it, even when battery is fully charged.  Restore function (holding down both buttons) often does not work.  Cannot power up iPad.  I have updated software, restarted computer, but no success.  I did restore the iPad about 8 times during the past 2 weeks.  Just completed another restore.  iTunes says the the iPad has been restored and will restart automatically and appear in iTunes when it is ready.  That was 30 minutes ago.  iPad still won't start.  I am looking down the barrel of yet another fruitless restore.  What a crap product.

    Try a reset:
    Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple logo.

  • Iphone 4 auto shut off when battery 20% and lower.

    My Iphone 4 auto shut off when battery 20% and lower. The phone is only 1.5 years old. Can I know why this happen?

    Most commom reason for this is faulty battery. You could try Restore with iTunes on computer, at end when prompted, Set Up iPhone as New. If still problem and you have AppleCare, take to Apple for resolution. If no coverage, make Genius reservation and take to Apple Store for quick free battery diagnostic testing.
