IPhone battery drains incredibly quickly. PLEASE HELP.

My iPhone 4s literally drained the battery from 100% to 1% in less than 5 minutes while it was charging. I turned it off to charge it at least until I could turn it back on, but it has 24 hours since I turned it off and it still won't even turn on. Is there any way I can fix this or do I just assume it is lost?

  • Why does my battery drain so quickly on iPhone 5s?

    Has anyone else found his/her battery draining more quickly than normal. I can begin the day at 100% and within an hour be down to 70% or even less. Is it the iOS 7.1.1 update? The data and wi-fi settings are on, which is the same setup as I had before on the iPhone 5, which ran on iOS 6. That battery lasted as advertised. Anyone with similar problems? Solutions?

  • Battery drains off quickly with micro SD card‎

    Hi ,
       My battery drains off quickly with micro SD card. This problem started a few days back when all of a sudden my micro SD card got corrupted while my cell was connected to laptop with the USB cord. It all of a sudden displayed message that there is some issue with the micro SD card and it needs to be formated. Unwillingly i had to format my micros SD card, clearing all my data and then it worked fine for few days and again the same thing happened. When my cell was connected with my laptop, it showed the error message and asked for formating. So i did formating again and now i have stopped connecting my cell with laptop. After battery problem started and battery is draining off in just few hours. I think maximum 5 hours without using cell much.
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    I think I'd remove the Media Card, first off, and see how it goes without.

  • Why is my battery drained so quickly on my 4S?

    Why is my battery drained so quickly on my 4S, even though I don't use apps/Internet excessively.  It says it should last 6 hours using the Internet.

    I had my iPhone use 20% of power an hour before I did the following.
    1.) Turn off iAds and diagnostics in location settings:system settings.
    2.) Turn off Calender in Notifications
    3.) If you have any exchange mail accounts ( I had 3 Gooogle accounts one set for mail and calendar, 2 set for mail only. remember when setting Google server m.google.com or it won't push to the phone.) delete them REBOOT your iPhone then redo them then Reboot one more time.
    Result: iPhone batt usage is now 4% an hour. my phone went for 19 hours with moderate (streaming, surfing, recording and viewing movies on camera app) on wifi use before getting to 5%

  • IPod touch 5 battery drains very quickly even when not used

    HI , I got a new iPod touch 5 for Christmas and let the battery drain before charging to 100%.
    within a very short period of time and without using the iPod  , (poss 2 - 3 hours ) the iPod was completly flat and would not even show the charging symbol. I charged it again and the same happened again , i did update the iPod during this time so it is currently running the latest iOS , I have tried a hard reset but still the battery drains very quickly without using the iPod at all. It is currently pretty useless as the battery life is so short !!!

  • When I plug my iPad up to charge it says not charging, and my battery drains very quickly what can I do to fix?

    When I plug my iPad up to charge it says not charging, and my battery drains very quickly what can I do to fix?

    There are two different types of adapters by Apple that look similar. One is a 5 Watt adapter used with iPhones and iPods. The other is a 10 Watt adapter used with the iPad. Other than looking at the text on the adapter, which is hard to read, you can tell the different by looking at the socket the pin part plugs into the adapter. The 5 Watt has two notches and the 10 Watt has only one notch.
    Make sure you use the 10 Watt adapter with an iPad.

  • Iphone battery draining fast after reboot

    hi, my iphone battery drains completely from 100% to 0% in a few hours if I switch the phone off and turn back on. i recently found this out once after I switched off the phone.....But there is no problem (battery can last 1~2 days for normal use)if i do NOT switch off after recharge.
    Is this a software issue or hardware?? Has anyone got the same problem? Thank you so much.

    A couple more diagnostic tidbits.....my iPhone exhibited odd behavior after downloading the Star Gazer app from the App Store on Sunday. I activated the "arrange icon" feature to move the app icon for Star Gazer to a new position on my iPhone and after I moved it the icon for the app next to it (Weather Channel App) was absent but the label was present. When I slid my app screen back to the home screen and came back, the Weather Channel App icon was visible and the Star Gazer app was now absent but the label was present. I've also had some odd flashes of the home screen after unlocking my phone (I have it secured with a PIN to protect my data). Is this and IOS 4.1 issue?
    It is not an iOS 4 issue; it is a very rare problem, and has occurred with all versions. But if you search you will see reports are in the dozens, with 100 million phones in use that's a vanishingly small number. It usually means that memory in the phone is corrupted. If rebooting the phone doesn't fix it you should restore the phone using iTunes.

  • Why is my battery draining so quickly after updating to Mavericks?

    Why is my battery draining so quickly after updating to Mavericks?

    1. Check the cycle count of the battery. It may be due for replacement. If the power adapter is connected almost all the time, the battery may need replacing even though the cycle count is not too high.
    2. Follow these instructions, or these for OS X 10.9 or later.
    3. You can also try resetting the SMC.
    4. Make sure your system is up to date in Software Update.
    5. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center.

    cannot activate my viber after i update to 6.1.3 iphone 3gs..can u please help me...the the code is ok but if i activate...its being error.

    @theViberTeam .
    I'm having trouble with Viber.
    A few days ago, I accidentally uninstalled it on my IPhone 4, and reinstalled it later on..
    When I tried sending the activation code using the same cell phone number I had on Viber before It got uninstalled, I receive the code but when I try to put it in it keeps saying that I entered the wrong activation code, I click on the no code feature on the top right corner of Viber, it gives me a code, but when I put that code in it says the same thing ,that I have the wrong access code please try again, and so I researched on the internet and came up to this post, It said to uninstall viber and wait 24 hours to install it again, I waited 24hours and tried it again, but it STILL does the same thing. and... I even tried entering my other phone number, yet it does the same thing and shows me the same message that I entered the wrong access code....It is getting frustrating! May you please Help ME?! What can I do??

  • My battery drains really quickly after upgrading to OS X Yosemite

    I recently upgraded to OS X Yosemite.   After doing so, my battery drains VERY quickly.  About 1 percent per minute.   Is there any fix for this?   Can I roll back my OS?  

    Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility and press the Continue button. After Disk Utility loads select the Macintosh HD entry from the the left side list.  Click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If Disk Utility reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit Disk Utility and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    Alternatively, see:
    Reinstall OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Choose the version you have installed now:
    OS X Yosemite- Reinstall OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
                     if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

    <Edited by Host>

    The problem is your phone was illegally unlocked and jailbroken. When you upgraded it took the unlock off and now it is locked to the original carrier it was locked to. You will not be able to unlock it now.
