2 out of 3 iPhone 3G's with battery problem.

http://www.wirelessinfo.com/content/2-out-of-our-3-iPhones-have-faulty-batteries .htm
Website says the 2 out of 3 iPhone 3G's have defective batteries.
They don't fully charge and have less battery life.
Anyone having the same problem? - I do

I am having this problem too, if the iphone 3G does have the same icon for the full charge as the original iphone. Apple may have changed it for the iphone 3G. But my phone does not display the radioactive green battery even after a 7 hour charge. Does anyone know the answer?

  • HT1277 I can not configure my major mail account at Mac Mфail - other accounts such as Hotmail and Gmail are working great. Also, I am using that major account at iPhone and iPad with no problem

    hello. I can not configure my major mail account at Mac Mфail - other accounts such as Hotmail and Gmail are working great. Also, I am using that major account at iPhone and iPad with no problem. I had contacted mail provider - we had followed step by step all the settings,, they are correct, and I was suggested to use another mail program. Why, for God's sake I should use different programs for different mail accounts? Anyone, had the same problem?

    it says - IMAP - Trying to log into this IMAP account is failed - Verify that username and password are correct
    same for SMTP
    in details -

  • TS1702 My brand new iphone5 will not connect to my home wifi even though my ipad and old iphone do connect with no problem. What can I do?

    My brand new iphone5 will not connect to my home wifi even though it recognizes it. My ipad and my old iphone4s connect with no problem. Any thoughts?

    Although your other devices connect okay, it would be worth resetting your router by switching if off for disconnecting it from mains power for 2 minutes and then switch it on again.
    Good luck and do report back.

  • IPhone 4 (not 4s) battery problems

    I've seen a lot of complaints about poor battery life on the 4s, but I am having problems with battery life on my iPhone 4, which is draining at about 2% every 10 minutes while in standby.  The battery problems started about 3 days ago (I had already been running iOS 5 for a couple of weeks without any issues).
    I believe that my problem has to do with my Gmail exchange account, which stopped working at about the same time.  Currently Mail is crashing whenever I try to sync with Gmail, and if I try to access the Gmail account settings in the Settings app then the Settings app crashes as well (no ill effects with Calendar or Contacts for some reason).
    Not sure if this helps anyone.

  • HT1695 Please help, my iPhone is pointless with this problem!

    I have an iPhone 5 and am stuck on a "Searching..." bar where I should have either 3G or the Wi-Fi signal. This has been stuck like this all day, and I haven't been able to send/receive any text messages. I also can't go onto the Internet. Please help.

    Try taking out your sim card (if you have a GSM iPhone) and putting it back in. If that doesn't work do a restart by holding down the lock and home buttons simulatneously until you see the Apple logo come back on the screen. If that doesn't work then I suggest doing a Restore of your phone through iTunes.
    If all else fails, talk with your carrier, it's probably an issue with them at that point. Good luck!

  • How do i download my itunes to my new sony vaio. My original laptop no longer works so am unable to switch it on which is where my original itunes account was setup. i have downloaded my itunes to my iphone and ipad with no problem

    Why wont me itunes downlaod to my new sony vaio?
    i follow all of the steps and have managed to get my itunes onto my ipad  and iphone but for some reason nothing appears on the vaio. My original laptop is broken and will no longer switch on which is where my account was originally set up. I dont really understand icloud. i thought everything was stored there so dont understand why this is happening Can anyone help please?

    What exactly is the problem that you are having ? Is it with downloading the iTunes program itself, or redownloading your purchases ?
    If iTunes itself then you can download it from here : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If it doesn't download then have you tried a different browser, and/or tried changing the settings on the browser that you are using e.g. turn off 'pop-up blocker' ?
    If you've installed iTunes and want to download your past purchases, then what you can redownload depends upon what country that you are in, and whether the items are still in your country's store. What you can redownload will show under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage :
    But ideally you'd have your own backup copy of all your downloads/library (and not relying on redownloading), a song/album etc could be removed from the store at any time.
    If you will be syncing your iPad and iPhone to that computer then you may also find this page useful : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

  • Iphone 5 sync with itunes problems HELP!

    This is the first ever Apple product I have owned so I am use to just dragging songs over to my blackberry file and it would send them to my phone straight away nice and easy. I have the latest itunes and iphone5 software.
    I am finding it difficult to understand and Im guessing I will need a step by step guide to the problems because I havent got a clue how to do the following:
    When I connect my iphone5 to my laptop and open up itunes, it auto syncs all my music to my iphone unless I click the stop button, I dont want this because there's only certain songs I want on my iphone, How do I stop it auto syncing (step by step guide would be helpful).
    Also now on my iphone I click on songs every song is in a grey colour and cannot be played because I deleted all music so I could sync only certain songs, how do I get rid of that?
    One more question. All my music files are on my itunes, but how do I set it up so I can create a playlist or manually select songs to sync to my iphone (again step by step clicking guide would be perfect because I am not use to any of this at all). Thanks
    Its probably so easy but because Ive never done it before my heads battered and all over the place with it.

    You have to configure the sync settings by accessing the summary page when you connect your iphone to your computer using iTunes on your computer. If you haven't installed itunes go to apple.com/itunes to DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL iTunes.

  • Iphone 5 call with bluetooth (problem)

    Hi
    since I update the IOS for the IOS 8.0 I have a problem using the bluetooth in my car (Mazda 6 2008). The iPhone connects to the car bluetooth system and works fine, the only problem is when I make a call, I don't hear the ringing sound, only start to listen when the person answers the call. If the person dont answer the call I dont even know if Im making a call or not because there is no ringing sound.
    I think that this Is a problem with the IOS, it appears tha the iPhone only uses the bluetooth when the call is answer and not when I start to call.
    In the previous versions of IOS everything works fine. I've tried to restore the last backup, hard reset, reset the network configurations, remove and pair the iPhone with the car again, but nothing works.
    Anyone with the same issue?
    Thanks

    Hi rebecchina and M100 users.
    I am very happy with my M100 Plantronics due to the aural information on battery life, connected etc. I was disapointed that it didn't work for my new iPhone 5, untill I was offered to trade off with another brand but I was unsatisfied with the other bluetooth that did not have any information service. So I tried sereral was untill I got fed up with it and I held the outboard butten on the M100 for 10 seconds or so - then it connected! And it just works perfectly now

  • IPhone turns off with battery left

    Since updating to iOS7 my iphone 5 turns itself off when the battery gets 20%. What's this all about?

    Try Reset, see if better. If not, try Restore, see if better. If not, then battery is most likely faulty, make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple Store for free quick battery diagnostic testing.

  • IPhone 4S trouble with Battery/Power, Phone will not stay on

    I've had a refurbished iPhone 4S for just over a year now and when I upgraded to 6.0.1 it was fine. But, after I upgraded to 6.1.3 the phone began having issues, but I'm not certain iOS is the root of the problem. First, it would cut itself off without a button shutdown and would not start back up. A hard reset would fix this, and I noticed the battery was not dead, nor even low. After a while of this, the phone would not start at all and I began restoring my phone almost every day, but by the next day the phone would be unactive again. Suddenly this stopped for a month. Now its back to shutting itself down, but in addition, it will have a full battery, cut off, and half an hour later, it will be hot. The phone is hot while its off. When I manage to get it back on shortly after, the battery is dead. So its having issues coming on, staying on, and maintaining a charge. I suspect a short in the battery or power equipment. Shorts are terrible for a battery this is going to kill my phone in a few months and even though when I first called Apple about this and I had my year left on my refurb, they stated I wasnt covered. Is anyone having a problem like this?

  • Z61m 9450 HAG, Windows 7 install, boot up with battery problem

    Hello all,
    I recently performed a FULL/CLEAN  install of windows 7 on my z61m, from XP.
    Everything was fine about the install, after installation updates were installed via automatic updates, the machine rebooted in about 45 seconds and came back into windows no problem.
    Then when I closed the laptop down for the night and came to boot it back up the next day it booted to the windows logo, that went away and I was left with juts a black screen for ages - with disk/power/battery/wireless lights all on and the disk light flickering away.
    I did a hard shutdown (pressing power key) unplugged the battery and immediately rebooted on AC power only and it booted into windows in 45 seconds again!
    Now I can't boot up with the battery in.
    I can insert the battery while windows is booted and it recognises it fine - and charges it.
    Any thoughts as to why this might be happening?
    Cheers

    Another strange issue I'm experiencing: I tried to take a screenshot to post here, but when I press the screenshot key I get an error message saying "Your screen shot can't be saved. You don't have permission to save files in the location where screen shots are stored."
    Do I have some sort of malware or trojan?
    EDIT: I fixed the screenshot issue by changing the desktop permissions (not sure why I needed to do that?). So here's what my screen looks like:

  • PLEASE HELP WITH BATTERY PROBLEM!!

    I recently swicthed from the 8830 which was a wonderfull phone. MY curve from sprint, 8330 is dead every day by 5 pm. I already exchanged the phone and had the battery replaced (third battery) I used my 8830 with the same applications and the most it would be by like 50-70 percent.  I dont know what to do. The curve is SUPPOSED TO  get better battery life! but actually is not. Its become a non realiable phone for me. Its still under my 30 days. Even though i already swaped it once. I do not want to get rid if this phone. I love the blackberry i just need the battery to last me either the same or better than the 8830 as blackberry promised....
    I have read forums in closing the applications but even when i do its still the same. I occasionally do get the hour glass problem and it does lag quite a bit.  Does any one know of a battery issue?? Has to be???
    I let it die last night and recharged it completely - as some of you recommended. I will try it today but my hopes arent to high ....
    Please help.
