Is it normal for iPhone 5 to take about 4 hours and 15 minutes to completely charge from 0%?

My iPhone 5 takes just over 4 hours to completely charge from a complete battery drain. I am very curious as to whether or not this is normal or abnormal? My previous device was the Droid Razr Maxx HD which took about 2 hours to completely charge. Am I stressing over nothing?

From the horse's mouth: http://www.apple.com/batteries/
"Most lithium-ion polymer batteries use a fast charge to charge your device to 80% battery capacity, then switch to trickle charging. That’s about two hours of charge time to power an iPhone to 80% capacity, then another two hours to fully charge it, if you are not using the iPhone while charging. You can charge all lithium-ion batteries a large but finite number of times, as defined by charge cycle."

    Try running in Safe mode.  This leaves out some video drivers.  Which results in machine not using advanced video hardware.

  • Is it normal for iPhone 4S to lose 1% battery life after 2-3 minutes of using?

    Is it normal for iPhone 4S to lose 1% battery life after 2-3 minutes of using? So in 2 hours, 24 minutes usage and 15 hours, 17 minutes  in standby mode, the battery became 68%...

    sounds plausable
    also you can't really 100% trust it's batt% batteries are an analog technology the only thing the iphone can judge how much batt is left is by measuing amp amount the batt is producing and then over time estimating how long before it's zore
    but anyway Its not wise to not put a battery for charge before bed when it's 12%
    if your reason is you think it's good for batteries to be empty before charging then you believe in a myth and in the process damaging the battery in your ios device

  • My iPhone 4 has been dead for 24 hours and it has been charging for 12 hours. I have tried holding the home and lock button down but it still has the black screen, what is wrong with it? It just randomly died on means won't turn back on

    My iPhone 4 has been dead for 24 hours and I've been charging it for 12 hours and it still won't turn on. I have tried holding the lock button and home button down, even connected it to computer but nothing's happening, it randomly died on me.

    Hi Lauren,
    When troubleshooting power issues, we want to make sure we have followed all steps outlined in the following article:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    - Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    - Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion.
    Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
    - Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    - After at least 15 minutes, if:
                   - The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
                   - The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
                   - Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    - If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
                   - If the display turns on, go to step 4.
                   - If the display remains black, go to next step.
    - Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to
    restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    - If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • I'm trying to restore my iPod and the update says it's going to take 9 hours and then after 2 hours or less it will say something about "unable to finish update." Why is this?? My iPod is a 3rd generation that I got from my brother.

    I'm trying to restore my iPod and the update says it's going to take 9 hours and then after 2 hours or less it will say something about "unable to finish update." Why is this?? My iPod is a 3rd generation that I got from my brother and even when I download an app that doesn't require my iPod to be an iOs 4.3, it will download, but it won't open.

    he advises restarting by inserting the OSX disc and pressing down the C button to reboot from there then selecting disk utility, hard disk and repair.... Does he mean me to hold down the C key on the alpha keyboard or the ctrl key?
    Should I just ask for my money back??? If it is a simple repair do I just literally push the disc in, push the power button and hold down the C button?
    That's where I would begin, too, with
    Repair Disk
    Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.TStatus of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report if it saysanything but Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need touse autility like TechTool Pro,Drive Geniusor DiskWarrior
    First we need to determine if the issue you are experiencing with the computer is software or hardware based. Once we have gotten things sorted out there should be time enough to make you decision about keeping or returning it.

    If the device has not been opened by anyone (other than Apple) then it can be replaced via the Out of Warranty replacement program, $269US for the 5, 5C, and 5S?
    If it has been opened by anyone other than Apple, purchase a new device.

  • Ios 5 update on iphone 3gs takes 36 hours???

    ios 5 update on iphone 3gs takes 36 HOURS??? that's the msg i got when i tried to update to ios 5! what the? has anyone run into similar issues when updating their 3gs? Could it be due to the apple servers being overloaded really? Then how come my housemates had no issues updating their iphone 4 to ios 5? is it coz mine's an iphone 3gs?

    Had to restore the phone to fix, after making sure all the possible settings everywhere were United States and English, but it worked. Still find it amazing that an update would change so many settings in so many places, especially the ones that aren't on the phone.

  • My iphone 4 is not working and I cant reset it from the computer either because it wont connect to it I need help!!!

    My iphone 4 is not working and I cant reset it from the computer either because it wont connect to it I need help!!!
    1. I tried connecting it to itunes for a system reset and it didnt work.
    2. The phone wont even turn on!!!

    If the phone wont turn on it sounds like it needs to be charged.  Plug it into a charger and wait about 15 minutes and try turning it on while still charging. Have you tried holding in your home button with the on/off button held in?  Hold them both together until the apple logo comes up and then release them.  The screen will blink off an on while it is resetting. I still think this is a battery issue. Good luck~

    iDVD encoding settings:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/7.0/en/11417.html
    Short version:
    Best Performance is for videos of up to 60 minutes
    Best Quality is for videos of up to 120 minutes
    Professional Quality is also for up to 120 minutes but even higher quality (and takes much longer)
    That was for single-layer DVDs. Double these numbers for dual-layer DVDs.
    Professional Quality: The Professional Quality option uses advanced technology to encode your video, resulting in the best quality of video possible on your burned DVD. You can select this option regardless of your project’s duration (up to 2 hours of video for a single-layer disc and 4 hours for a double-layer disc). Because Professional Quality encoding is time-consuming (requiring about twice as much time to encode a project as the High Quality option, for example) choose it only if you are not concerned abo
    In both cases the maximum length includes titles, transitions and effects etc. Allow about 15 minutes for these.
    You can use the amount of video in your project as a rough determination of which method to choose. If your project has an hour or less of video (for a single-layer disc), choose Best Performance. If it has between 1 and 2 hours of video (for a single-layer disc), choose High Quality. If you want the best possible encoding quality for projects that are up to 2 hours (for a single-layer disc), choose Professional Quality. This option takes about twice as long as the High Quality option, so select it only if time is not an issue for you.
    Use the Capacity meter in the Project Info window (choose Project > Project Info) to determine how many minutes of video your project contains.
    NOTE: With the Best Performance setting, you can turn background encoding off by choosing Advanced > “Encode in Background.” The checkmark is removed to show it’s no longer selected. Turning off background encoding can help performance if your system seems sluggish.
    And whilst checking these settings in iDVD Preferences, make sure that the settings for NTSC/PAL and DV/DV Widescreen are also what you want.

  • I've never run verify disk permissions before, but I finally have, and it says it's going to take an hour and 35 minutes to complete.

    Although it keeps actively finding problems with the disk, the progress bar hasn't changed for more than a half an hour, and it still says it's going to take an hour and 35 minutes. I'm starting to worry it will never be done! My laptop, a Macbook Pro, is pretty old - about five years, and I don't know if the fact that I've never run a verify disk permissions before has anything to do with it.
    The only non-greyed out option is to currently 'stop permission verify'.

    Just let it run, it probably won't take that long. Also you may benefit from reading Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions messages that you can safely ignore.

  • I used scripting brigde to add a movie that has size bigger than 5GB, exactly after two minutes iTunes return a failed, but the processing of the file is actually added to iTunes Library successfully. The copying take more than 5 minutes to complete. Why?

    I used scripting brigde to add a movie that has size bigger than 5GB, exactly after two minutes iTunes return a failed, but the processing of the file is actually added to iTunes Library successfully. The copying take more than 5 minutes to complete. Why the iTunes Scripting Brigde returned failed when it is actually success? It occurred exactly 2 minutes after submit the request to Scripting Brigde. Is this 2 minutes related to the Apple Event time out? if it does, how do I get around this problem? thx

    I can tell you that this is some of the absolutely worst customer service I have ever dealt with. I found out from a store employee that when they are really busy with calls, they have third party companies taking overflow calls. One of those companies is Xerox. What can a Xerox call center rep possibly be able to authorize on a Verizon account?  I'm Sure there is a ton of misinformation out there due to this. They don't note the accounts properly or so everyone can see them. I have been transferred before and have asked if they work for Verizon or a third party also and was refused an answer so, apparently they aren't required to disclose that information. I spent a long time in the store on my last visit and it's not just customers that get the runaround. It happens to the store employees as well and it's beyond frustrating.
