3G and battery life question

I know the 3G uses much more battery up when surfing etc ... but does anyone know if it also ***** up more battery life when it is just on standby (but with 3G on)?

OK - as my process of elimination continues, I think I have found the first smoking gun.
So, I still have 3G, WIFI, BT and location assistance disabled. I enabled push mail and 50 minutes later, I found that the phone was warm and the battery had lost about 25% of the total battery capacity.
The data xfer was only 4 or 5 MB, so it was not moving a lot of data around.
So I have deleted my dot Mac or should I say Dot Me account and my Yahoo account, only leaving the Exchange account to see if the situation improves. Sadly, it will be a while before I know, since I have to recharge my phone. It was full at 7am, I turned all the power draining functions of at approx 8am (apple care recommendation). I have not been using it - total call time 8 minutes - Total data xfer 4 MB, no games, not internet. Was at about 50% at 3pm, turned push back on and by 3.50pm it was down to approx 25% and at 5pm needs to be recharged.
I will post what I find out.
Assuming turning of yahoo mail account and Mac account fixed the push problem, I will try switching 3G back on. If it did not, I will switch Exchange push off - if that fixes it, I will switch Yahoo and Mac Push back on to see if it is a push problem, or a MS Exchange Push problem.
Thanks,
Nick

    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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Question about full cycle charges and battery life

    So I've had the new iPad since day 1 and absolutely love it, though recently I've noticed that my battery life doesn't seem to hold up as well as it has in the past. I've done three full cycle charges since getting it however during my latest one I accidently brought along my iPod wall charger and not the one that comes with the iPad. My iPad was fully discharged and I plugged it in assuming that in the 7 hour window I had that it would be fully charged within 5 hours, but this was not the case due to me having the wrong charger. After about 7 hrs of charging it was only at around 60-70% so I had to unplug it, bring it home, then plug it in once more using the correct charger. Probably a fairly obvious question but does this not count as a full cycle charge because I unplugged it? Should I perform another full cycle charge even though this most recent one was not even a week ago. I know you're supposed to completely discharge your battery as few times as possible so it worries me having to do it again so soon.
    About battery life, I've noticed lately that my iPad battery seems to be depleting quicker than normal, and was hoping that perhaps this was caused by being overdue for a full-cycle charge which I may have flubbed as seen above. I'm aware of a majority of the little tips and tricks to prolong battery life however I'm not so knowledgeable on the "do's and don'ts" of charging the actual iPad so any information on that would be helpful. I should also note that unfortunately I accidently left by iPad in a hot car for a little over an hour and was tremendously devastated knowing what this can do to the battery, so could this be the main cause for a seemingly weaker battery?
    Thanks for any feedback!  

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • IPod Touch and Battery Life

    Hello guys, just question for you.
    I think that soon I'll go get myself a new iPod and still can not decide between the iPod touch 64 gigs and the Classic.
    I am looking for a device where I can store all my music and has a good battery life. Now the Classic would be great as I would not need to upgrade for a few years ... the only worry is that it's a bit too fragile, due to the presence of an hard drive and not flash memory.
    On the other side I wonder if the iPod touch would resist for a week without charging it....I'm the kind of user who often flickrs tru the list looking for other songs etc and also most of my songs have been ripped at 320kbs so that means the player has to fish into the memory more often
    Any advice? Thanx in advance

    Hi Antonio,
    I've had a classic (original 160gb) for a few years now. It's taken a few knocks over time... nothing hardcore/abusive, but still works fine.
    Apple say that you get 36hours of music from a classic and 30hours from a touch
    I listen to my classic on my way to/from work, and a few hours of the day at work. I can get a whole week out of one charge easy.
    I recently bought a touch with some gift vouchers from a work bonus. The usability of a touch is far superior to a classic. Movies, games, apps, wi-fi are all amazingly good, but drain your battery. A charge usually lasts 2-3 days, but I do use my work wi-fi to check facebook & eBay sometimes (banned on work computers)
    I'd say touch trumps the classic, but if your music is all 320k, your going to fill 64gb fast!!! One thing to bear in mind is it's almost new Apple time. With the advent of iPhone OS4, there are many rumours and speculations, all of which are totally unfounded, but it is widely assumed that June/July will yield a new iphone, and possibly a new touch. There is no way to know for sure what the specs will be, but the new touch may come in greater sizes than 64gb

  • Slow i7 MacBook Pro startup and battery life issues

    Hi Everyone,
    My i7 2.66GHz 15" MacBook Pro with 8GB of RAM does a couple of things that worry me
    1. The battery life is poor, 127 Charge Cycles, 6 months old. I'm sat on Chrome with one window open and it's reading 3hr 16 min on 83%
    2. The startup into 10.6.5 is painfully slow. It seems to load up the menu bar at the top and hang mid flow, just before the battery status and time remaining appear.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance! Mike

    There seems to be a lot of unanswered questions floating around here.
    Its kind of scary seeing some of these "issues" and not seeing any answers.
    I just spent 3 g's on a 2011 mbp, and I am really hoping all the great things that I've learned about Apple still rein true. Those are the only reasons I bought one.
    My startup is very slow as well. 

  • Final Cut Pro And Battery Life

    Hello,
    I just got my first mac, a 15' macbook pro, and I have a question about battery life.
    As I'm a video person, I was wondering how long, relatively, the battery will last while using Final Cut. Is it long enough to warrant getting an external hard drive that draws it's power from the laptop?
    I wasn't really sure whether this went here, or in the final cut forums...
    Anyways, thanks a bundle!
    MAT

    Maybe, but it's hard to predict as it depends on exactly how the system is being used at any one time (FCP may vary in how much it runs that drive, for instance, depending on what's being done) and how much RAM you have in the system (more RAM may mean less paging to the hard drive and hence longer battery life). I'd suggest you ask in the FCP forum and see if anyone has one of the new MBPs that could give you real-life information.

  • Album Art and Battery Life

    I am waiting to order the iskin duo for the nano before I buy the nano itself but I was hoping 3 questions could be answered before I make my purchase. Thanks in advance for your help.
    1. I have read here that having and looking at photos on the nano shorten the battery life and eat up memory. I do not plan on placing pictures on my nano - but I do have album art for my songs. Does this eat up memory and use up battery life? If so, I may consider removing the album art.
    2. Under "importing" in my ITunes Preferences I have it set up as "AAC Encoder" and "128 kbps". Is this the best way to have each song take up as little space as possible for the memory? If not, how do I change this after the fact?
    3. I have heard a lot of discussions on where to buy an ipod. Some people feel that the extended warranty with Best Buy is a smart purchase, while some say it isn't worth the money. I have immediate access to buy the ipod online, at an apple store or at Best Buy. Where should I buy one and do you recommend an extended warranty?

    Hello Jaime,
    1. When You Put Pictures or have album art it shouldnt use up the battery power any more, the battery power will decrease the same amount as it does while its turned on.
    2.If want to have the songs the smallest without losing sound quality those are the best settings, i use them and i think the imported songs sound awesome.
    3. Best Buy is definately the best play to buy an iPod nano, i have done this and if anything goes wrong they will gladly exchange it or refund your money. I, personally, didnt do with the extended warranty because i wasnt willing to spend 50 bux on it. But if you have no problem with forking out the extra cash i would recommend it because the nanos battery will be eventually have to replaced and if you just send you nano to the apple "place" youll have to pay more than 50 bux, so the Best Buy salesman said...

  • Satellite M50-164 and Battery life

    Battery power only lasts 1 hour tops. Is this normal, laptop only 2 years old.

    Only 2 years!!! Sorry buddy but 2 years for mobile computer is long period of time. After 2 years battery can be defective, notebook can be full of dust and so on.
    So, after 2 years is normal that battery hasnt so much poweras new one and 1 hour is OK time.
    The question is what you do with it: watch DVD move, play a game or just write mails. As you know battery life depends on notebook usage.

  • Shutting off and battery life 6th gen nano

    I tried every way possible to get 24 hours battery life on the new 6th gen Nano, and the most I got was 12 hours. That was without touching the device,just letting it play music at 128bit rate. and everything off!. what is wrong! Also there is no way to turn off the Nano completely, only pause it. Please Apple send us all a software update that will fix this problem!! Don't let this product be another flop like your Iphone 4th gen was. To many flops and you will start going from number 1,to the worst company to purchase from.Your products in the past have been to good to let issues like this ruin your reputation. Please keep up the good work in your past, and don't let your products go to the garbage bin. thank you sincerely.

    Mad Man,
    I'm with you on these concerns. The "shutting off" of a device should not be a guessing game, nor should the user need to jump through hoops, particularly if the user is a child. Seems if the customer base has concerns, or is at least unclear on the topic (which the countless complaints on the web would indicate they are), I would have hoped that apple would have at least dignified it's customers with a response.
    I've read other posters respond to this line of question, with short answers, and attempt to dismiss the issue and question through shaming someone for even questioning the functionality, but these are legitimate questions. If apple can not, or will not respond, I suspect there will be more returns of the product than anticipated.

  • Instantaneous notebook power usage and battery life.....

    How much power do ur notebook use while doing pretty basic day to day activiites like, an open PDF, one office docx, wifi ON and downloading something, a music player minimized and singing, some 10 tabs on chrome and/or mozilla open....???
    I use "Batter care" utility to find out my power usage (only when in battery), its like 7.4W to 15Watt or above...I am not sure that's a realiable tool, but  I found it gives an idea of it. Do anybody suggest anything better.,.??
    Why I am asking this is that, I did a lot of driver updates lately and am afriand my power consumption have incresed by a few wats(4 or 5W)....Is it really possible..or jst my fear...??
    Also, I hope the new Li-Ion based batteries needn't be cycled while using. ie I hope its not necessary to "Charge full->discharge almost completly >charge to max again" while using the devce right..??Does it hurt the battery to be charge from some random X% value to some randon y% only to discharge back to z% and so forth....??
    (x!=z!=0, y!=100 :-P)
    Also will It hurt if I keep it plugged and uses while its 100% charged ..? (assuming the tempeartures are resonable)

    In regards to your various questions on the battery life for your notebook, I will direct you to a few links that you may find helpful and informational.

  • After iOS 8 update wifi is so slow and battery life is much worse

    After installing iOS8 on my 5s the wifi and 3G has slowed remarkably down. The facebook app now doesn't refresh unless I turn the phone off and on again and safari takes an age to load it's pages. Also the battery life is even worse than before. I used the maps yesterday for 1.5 hours for a trip and it took me from full battery down to 10% in that time. This is really irritating me now, will it be fixed?

    Like you I have a 4S running on iOS 8, and since the upgrade to 8 my battery drains like crazy.  I'm not experiencing the wifi issues that some of the other posters are having, but the rapid battery drain seems to be a common issue.  I keep hoping Apple will address this with their updates for iOS 8, but it always seems to be overlooked.

  • 3GS battery life question

    So anyway, I've took a 3gs back for battery life issues. And the Genius bar gave me a return, (not for the battery life but for something faulty with the display)
    Well, I am really glad I took it back. My phone is actually working a lot faster, and now it doesn't freeze to a white screen that is somehow able to operate even though you can't see what your doing (why I got the return)
    I was wondering two things.
    1) It is a week 29 (July) phone, so would it be possible that it is a refurb? I ask this because I want to know if i should condition the battery.
    2)Is there any reason why I can get advertised (or close to) battery life while making a call, but 2/3 (or less) battery life on internet use?
    I am still really happy with this phone compared to my last one. I had over an hour of use purely on the phone, and had 95% battery life, It was amazing. Compared with the 80% it would be at on my previous phone

    Thank you for replying, and if you could again, it would be greatly appreciated.
    1)I was asking about whether they would be able to refurbish the phone, which is a week 29 phone. And I bought it on august 8th. Because I don't think it would be really necessary to condition a refurbished phones battery.
    2)I have excellent wifi strength, 3g off, brightness at 50% or less, location services on, not using other apps, just the safari app, not using speaker, room temperature conditions. I just think it is weird that I can get about 10-11 hr battery life just using the phone function. But I think I am getting less than 5-6 hrs on wifi internet
