2.2 Upgrade and Battery

Stayed with 2.1 for a while. Tired of problems and 2.1 was pretty stable. Last weekend restored and installed 2.2. Stable, works well. Some mild screen brightness issues.
Battery life always pretty poor. Imagine my joy when I charged her up to max overnight for the first time and the next that green battery monitor never budged down a pixel. I thought I was getting a record breaking full power all day. Knew something was amiss. Shutdown and restarted iPhone. Battery icon 1/4 full. The icon doesn't shift. Anyone else seen this? Is this Apples answer to battery life gripes. Just paralyse the battery icon on full. Like it! Though not useful.

hmm, this is unique..
never heard of something like this before. mybe u should try discharging the phone battery all the way. (its recommended to do so every few weeks) to prolong battery life.

Memory upgrades and battery scratches

Good afternoon all!
I couldn't find where to email Lenovo directly so unfortunately I'm going to have to post here.
I'm probably going to catch some flak for this but hey ho, so heres the thing, I bought two brand new Lenovo 3000 N100's 5 years ago, all good, they both came with a 512MB SO-DIMM and since I wanted more memory I bought 2x1GB SO-DIMM's which I put in mine and put the other 512MB in the other one giving mine 2GB of RAM and my mum's 1GB of RAM.
Doing this was easy peasy, unscrew *ONE* screw and the flap just slides out of the two slots on the opposite side of the flap to the screw. Job done.
Scroll forwards 5 years and times have moved on... a lot and it seems like we apparently need to MASSIVELY over engineer things now.
So I bought three Lenovo 3000 G570's, all good stuff and all came with 1x2GB and 1x4GB for a total of 6GB, all good but me being me and a Firefox tab whore, what with RAM being so awesomely cheap I decided what I was going to do was get 8GB (2x4GB) SO-DIMMS (Corsair), take out ALL my existing memory, put in the new Corsair 2x4GB SO-DIMMS, take out the 2GB SO-DIMM from the one I got my sister and put in my now spare 4GB SO-DIMM giving me 8GB of RAM, my sister 8GB of RAM, my mum sticks with 6GB of RAM and I have 2x2GB SO-DIMM's left over spare.
SO, my sister and mum have already unboxed theirs and all is well, I unboxed mine, flipped it over and there are no less than *FOUR* screws holding the flap in now, granted there is just one 'flap' covering the CPU/RAM/HDD/WIFI/etc so okay fair enough, it's a big 'flap' after all.
So I undo said four screws and I should just be able to slide the panel out now right? Wrong, obviously four screws were deemed not nearly enough to keep it in place, so there are now tabs which are actually clipped in around pretty much all sides of this panel.
Well okay this can't be difficult right? Wrong. Now I'm a firm believer in the notion that if it won't budge don't just keep applying more and more force until something breaks. So I'm looking all over this thing, testing it gently from different sides to see if I can prise it open but it's becoming quickly apparent that I'm expected to BEND the panel so I can get the tabs out around the sides!
MASSIVELY over engineered and COMPLETELY unnecessary, were the FOUR screws not already holding it in place okay? It certainly seemed that they were? Okay so I need to bend the panel to get the tabs out but I'm guessing it's a reasonably easy thing to do not requiring much force right? Wrong. So it became quickly apparent then I'm going to need quite a bit of force, the problem is it's the kind of force that requires a flat head screwdriver and despite my best efforts it was impossible not to mark the bottom of my nice shiny brand new laptop! But that's not the end of it.....
So I've undone the four screws and I've managed to bend the panel and prize out all that tabs as gently as possible all whilst doing my best to try not slip the screwdriver underneath the panel taking a nice stab at the motherboard/memory/CPU/wifi/etc underneath because that would just *really* make my day, so the four screws and numerous tabs would be it right? Wrong. It appears that there is something underneath the panel STILL holding on, "more tabs?!" I cry in despair as my engineering family background cries out "WHY LENOVO GODS? WHY?!!! Does this panel need to survive a thermonuclear explosion?! Does it need to stay on whilst being driven over by a tank?! WHY?!".
So I'm trying everything, gently wriggling it this way, wriggling it that way, lifting it this side, lifting it that side, EVERY conceivable way of removing the final tab underneath I tried.... and failed. I pour through all the manuals again, maybe I've missed something? Maybe I'm just being completely thick (it's not unknown to happen)? But no, the manual makes it sound as easy as breathing so I give it one last try, I lift the panel putting more and more force through it until eventually BANG it comes off.... and I sit there staring.... laptop on the table.... the panel in my hands.... and the now broken tab.....

....wonderful.
With sigh I proceeded to install the new memory and replace the panel which now ironically goes on and comes off again SIGNIFICANTLY easier now the tab underneath has broken off and do you know what? The panel doesn't seem to have lost any of it's ability to stay in place? Funny that.
The other funny thing is that when I go to 'upgrade' my sisters laptop, the panel comes off EASILY! Maybe during assemble mine was done differently? Maybe the tolerances on mine just made it too tight to come off easily but with another sigh I go to put the battery in my new laptop so I can check all is well and what do I find?
The battery has scratches all over it:
link to image
All three brand new laptop boxes had the Lenovo seal on them so the retail store couldn't have opened it and my sister's and mum's laptop's were all fine?
So dear Lenovo, I love buying your laptops, I've bought five already, I'd buy again but would you be so generous as to send me a new panel and battery? I'd really appreciate your help.
Regards,
Benji

Firmware Upgrade and Battery Life?

Since the firmware upgrade on my Macbook in early February the fan appears to be running at full speed all the time and battery life is crap! Has anyone else noticed this? Is there a fix/workaround available please?

Sounds more like an app stuck processing that shouldn't be....does happen from time to time. Behing hot means it is constantly processing.
To fix:
Try a reboot (described below).
Think of it this way, the iPhone is more of a computer than a phone. It suffers from being a new OS and nobody can deny there are not bugs and memory leaks. The longer left running, the more things start to fail or slow down (I have had the iPhone since day one of original phone and I am just speaking from my experience). Thus I equate it to like when Windows95 came out...not sure of your age or if you remember those days...but back then it was a running joke of how many days you can keep Windows 95 running before you had to reboot. I am sorry to say but the iPhone is the same way right now (but getting better with a few hiccups back during the 2.0 release). So for me, I reboot daily when I leave in the morning and take it off the charger. By doing so I rarely see any lag or problems.
A reset/reboot is:
Go to Home Screen
Press and Hold Home Button
Keep holding and press and hold Lock Button
Keep holding Both
You will see Slide to Turn Off (Don't let go to slide, just keep holding)
The phone will turn off (in time, but screen will look like it has some white lines)
Keep Holding
When you see the Apple Logo, you can let go.
Turning off via the Slide to Turn off while good and fine to turn off, is more like the Sleep Mode on a computer. Thus any locked up issues in memory remain when you turn back on. A reboot as described is like doing a real Turn off and Turn On on a computer.
You may also wish to read this tread about reboots and odd application behavior.

For me, 2.1 works great.

I have a early 2011 Macbook pro 13 inch, I'm running Lion 10.7.4, and i want to upgrade to 10.8 Mountain Lion. Is it safe for my computer or are people experiencing problems with displays and Battery life?

Do Not post stuff about how Airplay doesnt work, because i dont have Apple TV and dont need to hear about it.

If you have an external drive equal to or larger than your internal HD, clone your internal to it with either Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper. Test the clone to make sure it's bootable. Then upgrade either one. Try it out first.

OSX Upgrade and new software purchases slow down Mac and Battery won't hold charge?

Any assistance appreciated:
I have recently upgraded my OSX from Snow Leopard, which I was quite happy with, and was ticking over very nicely.
And, today, I have problems???
I was using Snow Leopard, I purchased Mainstage 2 for my musical work... Nice piece of Kit..
I then notice 'Apple', bring out Mainstage 3 about 10 days later???
I check out the spec, will not run on my OSX...
I then check out Mainstage 3 and find that it would be a better version than 2..
I then decide that the extra stuff in Mainstage 3 is worth the price of an OSX upgrade, and the newer Mainstage 3 version although I had recently purchased Ver 2..
I do the upgrade, seems to have worked fine...
I purchase Mainstage 3, get that installed, and the Xtra's.... What is that all about?
It took me well over 12 hrs to get those...
Any road up, I get everything installed and functioning....
Now, my Mac is Slllooooow..
The Battery will not hold it's charge... Runs for only 2 hours MAX and then needs recharging???
The MacBook was bought only 18 month ago??? 2011 edition..
I have an IBM ThinkPad 240 and it still holds more charge than my Mac....
Help appreciated Folks...
For the dosh I have paid to 'Apple', the product and software should operate and function better than this???
And to honest, I aint spending anymore, until 'Apple' give me some answers on my problems.

Updated to OS 10.7.3; fan runs constantly and battery life dropped to under 2 hours when 100% charged. How do I get back to 10.7.2, I don't have a backup prior to this upgrade. This is a newer Macbook Pro 13", no modifications.

Help! This new version of Lion is making me miserable. The fan runs constantly, the computer is hot and battery life has dropped to under 2 hours on a fully charged battery. I updated yesterday, nothing but misery today. Even running the mail program alone make the fan run like I have everything open. Using Pages, iPhoto, and iTunes simultaneously makes the computer blistering hot.Yesterday, I could use all three without any trouble. Any suggestions to either jettison 10.7.3 or how to fix without any expense? I haven't modified this computer at all, it is as it came from the box in August 2011: 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5, 4GB 1333 Mhz DDR3.

I updated to Lion 10.7.3 and started noticing my fans running on high all the time and my battery would drain 2-3x faster. I was going to take my computer into an Apple store until I found this thread. I did the SMC reset by shutting down my computer, plugging it in, and then pushing down shift+control+option while also pushing down the power button. Nothing happens on the screen and the computer did not turn on. I then released all the buttons at once after holding them down for 10 seconds.
After that, I simply turned my computer back on and everything seems to be working fine. The fans are not blasting anymore. I have a newer MacBook Pro where I can't access my batteries. The SMC reset may differ for other types of laptops.

Data usage and battery drain has skyrocketed with iOS 8.1.2 (maybe earlier)

3 weeks ago my wife got a text message on her iPhone 5 from AT&T that she had used 90% of her data for the month. 30 seconds later, she got another one saying that she had used 100%. Granted, her data plan is small, 200 MB. But, for the last two years she has used as little as 17 MB in a month and her largest prior to this latest month was 49 mb. This month she got to 380 mb before we were able to shut off her cell data. Otherwise, a second chunk of 200 MB and another $15 would have been added to the month.
We had noticed that her battery had been draining rather rapidly in standby mode with no background apps running when she didn't have access to WiFi. We have now correlated the two results, High Cell data usage, Quick battery drain and very warm phone. In case anyone is wondering about her iPhone 5 being one in the recall, it is. I took it in and had it tested. Apple says the battery is fine. It does hold a charge well. When all network communications are shut down on her phone and it is in standby mode, there is no noticeable loss of charge in 24 hours (our longest test).
Since I have a grandfathered Unlimited Data Plan with AT&T, I have been doing some testing on my iPhone 5s. Sure enough, I've seen similar results. With nearly everything turned off except Cell Data, I've seen 483 MB used in 24 hours. Of that total, 479 MB was used for Documents & Sync. I even have everything turned off in my iCloud account, Location services are turned off, no push notifications etc...
The best I can figure, this has been a problem since we installed 8.1.2 and yesterday I installed 8.1.3 resulting in no positive effect on this issue.
At this rate of data usage and no access to WiFi, my wife would have to have a 15 Gb data plan to keep from exceeding her limit. I don't think AT&T even offers one that big anymore. I might have to switch to Sprint or T-Mobile if this doesn't get resolved.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your shared insights.

Hey this is Brian, bjmcmurry, under a different user ID. If I logged in as bmcmurry, original post, I was just getting a server error and couldn't get to this discussion nor post a comment anywhere.
Anyway, let me be as brief as I can. After an extensive analysis of replicating the problem on another phone to eliminate it being a hardware specific issue and that the test phone has an unlimited data plan, I was able to stop the excessive data usage and consequential battery drain. I believe I have a reasonable explanation of the problem, an iOS logic bug.
I had everything under my control clamped down on the test phone to minimize data usage. Also, I was forcing all data usage to use the cell towers. I determined that I was burning at least 11 to 13 Mb per hour doing nothing important. I literally had everything turned off except 'Settings' was allowed to use Cell data providing a avenue to log into the Apple ID.
The two phones had 2 things in common, they were using the same Apple ID and the same version of the OS. One was a iPhone 5 and the other was a 5s.
Here is a synopsis of my experience via my written evaluation of the Apple support system (Apple Rep name's have been removed):
After a couple of hours on the phone with an Apple Care Senior support Analyst, it was suggested that I go to the Apple Store to 1) get my battery replace in the iPhone 5 since it qualified for the replacement program and 2) see if the Genius could provide me with any insight in the data usage issue and battery drain.
I'm certainly glad I had multiple reasons to visit the closest Apple store, a 45 min drive. I got the battery replaced, thanks for that.
Regarding the important issue to me that brought me to the Genius Bar, excessive Cell data usage, I thought the Genius did a wonderful job listening and documenting the problem we were experiencing. Unfortunately, educating us on the use of the product or replacing our phone was not going to solve the problem. He eventually figured it out, this was not a user error or broken hardware. We surmised that the reason I was sent to him was to verify and document that there was a problem. I clearly had a problem. After writing copious notes on the issue, The Genius smartly referred me back the the AppleCare Senior Advisor. So, back to AppleCare Senior Analyst I went. She, knowing this was not a simple problem to solve i.e. beyond her level of expertise, got an Apple Software engineer involved.
My primary frustration is that this should have been escalated to software engineering right away. My trip to see the Genius was, I believe, a waste of time for both me and Apple regarding this issue. Diagnosis of this type of problem is well beyond the Genius’ knowledge and job. The Genius did a very good job doing what he could within the scope of his job. He just couldn’t solve this problem and had no one within Apple to which he had access for help.
However, that initial consult with the engineer was a bit feeble. Not only could I not talk to him/her directly, his/her focus was still working with the ‘Black Box' approach. Having Analyst ask me to do stuff like restore the Phone was more like trying to find a 'work around' than 'identifying the real problem.' Maybe restoring the phone was going to fix some corrupted data on the phone sidesteping the real problem, the handling of this condition. The engineer did listen to the fact that I had restored the test phone, the 5s, and only added the use of my Apple ID. Duh, been there!!!
Having been an previous owner of a software development company that I started in 1980 and retired in 2001, I can tell you that using the 'Black Box' method of debugging is extremely inefficient. Instead, having access to an ‘Activity Manager’ type app to identify in real time what process was blowing up the data flow would have saved me a lost afternoon at the Apple store and hours on the phone with tech support.
Ironically, I may have stumbled onto a "work around" solution short of turning off Cell Data that stopped the excessive Cell Data usage and consequential battery drain. Just prior to leaving the Apple Store, I used one of their Macs to log in my Apple ID on the id.apple.com website to ‘Manage my Apple ID’, I was forced to upgrade the security level of my password. Afterward, my cell data usage seemed to drop dramatically.
I told the AppleCare Senior Analyst that I may have stumbled onto a workaround and I suggested that I give it a couple of days of monitoring. We'd talk then and I would have results to report. She agreed.
Sure enough, my Document & Sync usage was back to normal, about 1/2 Mb per day. Am I happy that the excessive Cell Data usage has stopped? You bet! But, there was no intuitive reason that an end user would know to log in on the ID website to unknowingly solve this problem. As I use to say to my employees, that is not the ‘Macintosh Way.’ And, rebooting the the 'Microsoft Way.'
When I reported my findings to the Analyst, we both concluded that data usage was back to normal. She did report to me that the engineer did provide a laundry list of suggested activities to help solve the problem. Remarkably, they were everything that I had already done and were pretty much what the Analyst and the Genius tried to do. All reasonable tasks. But clearly, the engineer hadn't even ready the notes on the case before responding. And, none of the things suggested would have uncovered the real problem, likely a logic bug in iOS.
My advice now is to have the software engineering team rule out that there was an unresolvable state that a background process was fiercely trying to handle. The iOS does not seem to know how to intervene and prompt the user with a requirement to upgrade their password. If this does end up being the case, I would call it a logic bug, a perpetual exception that is not being handled properly.
Anyway, I hope this helps you.

My ipod touch died in the middle of a upgrade and now it wont come back on. When I charge it, it just goes to the apple but not the home screen. how do i fix it

my ipod touch died in the middle of a upgrade and now it wont come back on. When I charge it, it just goes to the apple but not the home screen. how do i fix it

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Storm 1 Shutdown and battery drain

I cannot wait to get rid of this piece of garbage Storm. This phone will arbitrarily shut itself off, usually twice in sequence, then when it comes back on the battery is completely dead. Happens about every other day lately, sometimes every day. I do not have a lot of apps on this phone at all. Nothing has been added to it in the past year or so. This thing is very annoying, I have 3 weeks until I can upgrade and will never buy another Blackberry.
Anyone know what might be causing this?

Hi jamiewilson_8,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community.
Try backing up your device via the BlackBerry Desktop Software and performing a clean reload of your device software. http://bbry.lv/bpv7DT
Its possible some data in your backup file may be causing the issue, so try doing a selective restore as shown here: http://bbry.lv/bhaArf making sure to restore only essential data such as contacts and calendar. If you synchronize your organizer data, it is preferable to sync your data back onto the BlackBerry rather than restoring from a backup file.
Hope this helps.

Since I upgraded to iOS 7.0.4 on my iPad 3, battery capacity has drained almost 10%/hour without any use of the device. Prior to the upgrade, the battery charge would hold during periods of inactivity. What can I do to solve this significant problem?

Since I upgraded to iOS 7.0.4 on my iPad 3, my battery capacity has drained almost 10% per hour without any use of the device.

Is there a way to uninstall iOS 7.0.4 and return to the previous version?

Downgrading isn't supported.
You can poke around in the settings. There's a lot of stuff defaulted to on that you may not need, such as notifications.
You can also look into background app refresh and background app updates. They can be running in the background and drain your battery.

Upgrading the battery for HP 14-d106TX

Hi,
I have bought a HP14-d106TX laptop. It came with a default 4 cell battery (740715-001). I want to upgrade this battery with a 6 cell or more.
Can you please suggest me which battery should I buy to replace my 4 cell battery.
Thanks.

I did an extensive internet search and found no compatible battery other than the 4 cell sometimes called 0A04.

3G issues and battery indicator on ios 6.1

Since upgraded to iOS 6.1, I can't seems to use 3G in my iphone4s and iPhone5..No matter how many times I tried to turn off and on the 3G from the setting app, it failed to get 3G. I had to restart my iPhone repeatedly to use 3G.
Also the battery indicator drop drastically after a full recharge. I plug of my iPhone4s and iphone5 from charger and just within few minutes, battery drop to 97%.
I had to switch off my iPhone and turn it back on then only the battery indicator go back to 100%.

Hi shldr2thewheel, thanks. But these issues were what Apple said would be solved...these upgrades always disturbe other itens.
It´s like my last upgrade (to 6.1.2), there wasn´t any note adressed to 3G or Wi-fi connection, but it destroyed them.
I would like to know if someone had the same problem with Internet connection and battery life and afterward upgrade it to iOS 6.1.3 has got rid of them.
I will not upgrade to iOS 6.1.3 with no sure about the improvement. There are many people complaining regarding these same issues after 6.1.3.
Thank you any way.

Os7, cables and battery

This will probably sound like a broken record but I am really trying to find good answers. Problem #1 Since upgrading to ios7 my iphone5 battery as become increasingly worse. I am to the point where I can't even get 2 hours of normal use. (Normal use was originally 30 hours). Is this an operating system issue or a battery issue or both? Problem #2 The inexpensive chargers I bought no longer work. This is a problem because I need constant charging. This also happened with the upgrade to ios7. I don't feel like spending 25 bucks on multiple charging cords as the others worked fine for over a year. Problem #3. Phone dies anywhere from 65% to 1% just depends on the day. This also happened once the upgrade to ios7 took place. I use my phone for work so it is less than ideal when I cant make a call or respond to an email.
I have tried all the easy fixes. Shut down the apps, turned off wi-fi, etc. I am an old school apple guy (**** i bought stock when it was at $3.50.) I have had two laptops and three desktops but this is my first iphone. But this is the first time since about 1995 that I am ready to be done with apple due to the poor performance of the phone, operating system and battery.

That's how I buy it
