About Battery usage

I have iPod Nano 5th 8GB, my question is simple. on http://www.apple.com/ipodnano/specs.html said that this iPod able to play 24hours playback if fully charged. My question is, does this true? and what should I do to make this iPod correctly run in 24hours in audio playback? Any configuration please..
And the last question is, how to check that my *iPod Battery* running well?

Here are the notes Apple posted on the page you refer to about Battery Testing and length of playback :-
Testing conducted by Apple in August 2009 using preproduction hardware and software. The playlist contained 358 unique audio tracks consisting of content imported from CDs using iTunes (128-Kbps AAC) and content purchased from the iTunes Store (256-Kbps AAC). Video content was purchased from the iTunes Store. Battery tests are conducted with specific iPod units; actual results may vary. Rechargeable batteries have a limited number of charge cycles and may eventually need to be replaced (see www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/battery). Battery life and number of charge cycles vary by use and settings. See www.apple.com/batteries for more information.

Concerned about battery usage

I never used the battery before. Now it's my first time using the battery; it only allow me a 1/2 hour to work. How do I solve the problem?

You might also go through the Battery Information Center to understand some basics about notebook batteries.

Equium M50-164: Question about Fan usage & battery timer

Hi !!
Just got hold of my equium m50-164 laptop today and I wanted to clarify a few issues
firstly,
I flashed my bios with the latest version and upon the reboot the fan kicked in at full power and didn't turn off until i put the laptop into standby mode, this seemed to of rectified the problem but the fan seems to be kicking in a lot more than compared to before, luckily the fan isn't kicking into 100% speed but more like 15% - 20% every 30 secs or a minute then goes into silent mode, the fan hasn't hit 100% unless i do a reboot :),
I know the fan will speed faster based on the cpu usage etc (thermal) but is this normal? I spoke to support and they wanted me to have an instant replacement but I said I would wait a few days to see if it would calm down :)
and finally looking at the power meter and other software tools there seems to be no battery calibration, with previous laptops i noticed that numerical calculations are made based on battery usage and time left [i.e a timer] but with this laptop i kind find a timer - i would of thought tha every laptop has this facility nowadays !
any advice would be helpful
cheers

Hi
Please dont be mad on me but I really dont understood why your first step is BIOS update. The unit is delivered with actual BIOS and it is really not necessary to make it before you notice some problems. I just hope that you have enough experience with it because I have read a few postings on this forum about BIOS damage while BIOS update and to make it good again costs a lot of money.
Your BIOS is updated and there are new values that should be used by Power saver utility (responsible for cooling fan monitoring). I recommend you to remove preinstalled power saver, restart the unit and install it again. I hope that the result will be better.
Battery calibration I dont know what you want exactly but the battery usage can be control by power saver tool. On the task bar there is symbol for power saver and if you move the mouse pointer on it the battery capacity and left time will be shown.

IPhone 6 Battery Usage setting not working.

When I go to my setting and check my Battery Usage setting it states: "Battery information will be available after using iPhone for a few minutes". I've been using it for hours and I get the same response when I go to the setting. I've turned off my phone multiple times to see if that would resolve it, but it hasn't. Is anyone else experiencing this behavior?

Hello.
I have the same problem. iPhone 5, iOS8.0.2, used for a few days - still no usage statistics, only "Battery information will be available after using iPhone for a few minutes".
I tried restore iPhone (DFU) without restoring backup from iCloud/iTunes, resets, hard-resets, erase all settings, drain battery to 0% and charge to 100% overnight etc. - nothing helps.
I wrote to the Apple about this problem.
Here is the page that you can use to contact with Apple and report a bug - https://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
Please, give the title of "iOS8 battery usage statistics not working" (or something like that), choose the "Bug report" and describe the problem. Perhaps it will make that Apple will eliminate this problem in the next version of iOS. More report - greater chance.

IPhone 6 Battery Usage function not working

Battery Usage feature continues to read; "Battery information will be available after using iPhone for a few minutes" even though I have now had the phone and used it for one week. Using iPhone 6, 64G, IOS 8.0.0.(no iOS updates have yet been applied)
A few days ago I attempted some suggestions posted by others. One of those was to let the battery drain to zero then fully charge. This had no affect on the Battery Usage feature. Another suggestion that i tried was to close all open apps on phone, then shut down phone and then turn back on. This did not resolve the Battery Usage issue either.
Is apple aware of this issue? Any help would be appreciated.

WP8.1 35% battery usage in an hour

After installing WP 8.1, I'm facing a strange issue, I charged my phone to 100% about an hour ago, but now it shows 65% remaining.
The weird thing is, the new battery saver usage statistics shows really high battery usage for apps that i've never used after installing WP 8.1 update. And they are all background usages according to the battery saver.
Is anyone else facing a similar issue?

In battery saver usage statistics, Internet Explorer is on top and about 70% of it's battery usage is in background.
2nd one is the default Camera app, 100% in background
3rd app on the list is Angry Birds GO, 100% in background
4th one is google mail account,
5th is a TV app, i dont even remember when i've installed it
6th is OneDrive, 100% background usage but background usage of the app has been disabled.
7th is Speedtest.net app, I've used it a couple of weeks ago, that's all
I've used a few apps after installing WP 8.1 preview and IE is one of them, the other apps that I've used was at the bottom of the list, that's really weird.

Does SMS relay iOS 8.1 cause extra iPhone battery usage?

I was messing with both SMS relay the other day and noticed that my battery drained almost twice as fast..
I was also messing with handoff and basically just testing the new integration features between Yosemite and iOS8.1
But my question is about SMS relay.. Does anyone know if this will us up more iPhone battery than if I wasn't using SMS relay and just SMSing from the iPhone itself?
Does SMS relay work via bluetooth? Could this be a cause for extra battery usage? It could be possible that I was jus using my phone a bit extra that day but I just want to make sure as I have SMS relay turned off for now, don't want battery life dropping..

I had the same problem. I realized that it had everything to do with my calendar app. My iCalendar was having a difficult time fetching information from my Outlook and Yahoo Calendar. Causing my battery percentage to decline at a very rapid rate. (50% in a 4 hour time frame). I resolved the problem by going into my Settings >" Messaging , Contact , Calendar" Setting > Clicking on one of my selected Accounts ( Outlook or Yahoo) and turning off the Calendar Sync. The problem seemed to go away after doing this. Now I'm only using 4% battery life in a 4 hour time frame in StandBy Mode. Well I Can only hope that this will help resolve the battery drainage issue. Good Luck ....

Still No Battery Usage Stats

Hi folks, I've seen lots of posts on this but still haven't seen a good answer. I have had my iPhone since launch day. I haven't hacked it once. I've updated to 1.0.1 and 1.0.2 on the evenings those updates came out. My battery usage stats continue to say the following even after the battery charge indicator reads full-charge as indicated by the "plug" icon:
Usage --
Standby --
Is this a bug? Or does this indicate a hardware problem? Am I too late to get a replacement?

I've had the same issue since I fist got my phone. I called Applecare once and was told they are aware of the issue and it should be fixed in an update. This was about two days prior to the 1.0.1 release. I also visited the genius bar twice. First time I was told to do a software re-install. Second time they acted kind of clueless but checked a few employee phones and all we like mine, dashes only.
Here is what I've observed, or my timeline on this issue:
- After buying my phone and noticing this problem I went to the Apple store and the 4 or 5 phones I picked up all had usage meter stats. Genius bar was closed but someone helped me anyway and suggested a software re-install (this was prior to 1.0.1
- When I went in for my second genius bar appointment I checkout out at least a dozen phones and all had "charing timer" stats. Both meters apparently counting up (hours charged) and both identical. This was after 1.0.1.
If I do a restart while the phone is plugged in I get the charging timers instead of the dashes, but my phone acts up and once I restart again it goes back to dashes.
I've got good battery life. Hopefully this will be fixed in an update down the road. Bottom line is there is a warranty on the phone so I'm just going to stop worrying.

Ipad air 2 battery usage

When i go to settings>battery usage> it shows that my home lock screen is using 84% of my battery. I have a photo that was taken with my phone as my background image on both. Do I need to change them out to a solid color to get better battery life?

Hello fishes2000,
From your post I see you're concerned about the battery usage on your iPad. To learn what the Home & Lock Screen battery usage entails, please see the information outlined below. After that is a link that can help you optimize the settings on your iPad to maximize the battery performance.
Home & Lock Screen. This indicates that the Home screen or Lock screen was displayed on your device. For example, the display was awakened by pressing the Home button or by a notification.
If an app frequently wakes your display with notifications, you can turn off push notifications for the app in Settings > Notifications. Tap App and set Allow Notifications to Off.

Battery Usage Screen won't display any (app) data

Hi Folks.
I was so lucky that I've got a new iPhone 6 just 20 mins after inital sales here in Germany. On my way to the office in the morning I checked the device, and I really liked the Battery Usage feature. Waited so long for that. However, back in my office I connected the device with my Mac to install my last backup from my old iPhone 5s. That worked as designed, pretty good and without any issues.
But now the Battery Usage Screen that can be found under Settings > General > Usage > Battery Usage is empty. I only see a switch between the last 24 hours or 7 days, and thats it. There is a hint saying that I have to use the phone for a few minutes unless data is available, but I used it quiet a lot in the last two days Reboot haven't worked, same with killing the Settings app.
Does anyone have the same issue? Google don't know anything yet, same with this board here.
Thanks for any answer...

Mine started working today. I did reset settings in Settings -> General -> Reset -> Reset Settings. It took about 20 minutes for it to start working and I'm not 100% sure if this is what fixed but I thought I'd pass it along.

Excess Battery usage Running Windows xp

I recently installed windows xp using boot camp and noticed right away that battery usage increased by about 10% compared to running OS 10.5. I have applied all updated and firmware releases,has anyone else seen this and can it be adjusted or controlled in some way???

Mac OS is written to optimize battery use. Wind'oh!s is not. This is well-known and unlikely to change.

Lumia 1020 | High battery usage

Hi,
I´m wondering if 20% battery usage while doing some whatsapp messaging and internet browsing per hour is the normal behavior of the Lumia 1020?
I only have battery sense, Bing weather and Whatsapp activated as background tasks. Bluetooth and NFC is turned off. I usually close my apps after using them so I only have one or two apps running. Screen Brightness is set to low.
Thanks!

Genrally I just use anything I like when I have access to top up, ie sat at m,y desk using usb charger, if out and about tend to turn off most apps and radio antenna to save power, or carry mobile charger with me. As you proved either flight mode or not using the phone drastically reduces power consumption. My phone generally lasts the working day even if used heavily, if I am busy actuallt working and not playeing on my phone it will have over 60% left at the end of the working day and that's with Twitter, FB and two mail accounts running along with a couple of other apps, Bluetooth , wifi and 3G.
If whatsapp is the culprit , just turn off when you know you will not be able to get a top up charge.
Good Luck

Home & Lock screen battery usage 47%

Iphone 5 IOS 8. In checking the new features on IOS 8, I noticed that the Battery Usage for Home & Lock Screen is 47%. Battery replaced on 09/12/14. Is this normal?

I have been having this issue off and on since the 8.0.2 update. I seemed to fix it, then 8.1 brought it back... thought I got it in order again, and mostly, it runs ok..then suddenly the battery just drains like crazy! Granted... my phone is about a year old, so probably is about time to replace the battery anyway... but it's this unpredictability that is bothering me! I almost have to keep it plugged in at night now because I use it as an alarm clock, and a couple of times, the battery has nearly totally drained within just a few hours of sitting there! Last night, I know I looked at it in the middle of the night and it was at about 85%, but then this morning, suddenly, it had dropped to less than 10%! Same thing earlier this week. It was sitting on my desk by my computer and it had been fine and suddenly the insufficient battery symbol was flashing! If it were just the battery going bad, I would have expected it to consistently drain, but it seems fine some days.
One thing I did consider is that we have some apple charger cables and some cheap, third party ones....and sometimes it seems that, while they seem to charge the phone, that the charge doesn't hold as well... but it isn't consistent either. I do know that the colorful ones target sells are NOT good! they cut off some of the sound when plugged in (video, text alerts etc), and if you try to use it as a data transfer cable to your computer, the transfer seems to get stuck.

Apple Watch iPhone app battery usage

Hi Everyone,
Is anyone else finding that the Apple watch companion iPhone app is having a massive drain on their iPhone battery?
Since getting the watch, my iPhone is draining at about 2x the normal rate. When I go into the iPhone and take a look at the battery usage, it's the Apple Watch app that's absolutely creaming the battery.
As a bit of background, I expected this to be the case on the day I got the watch, given I was playing with it so much, but today, I've not done anything special on the watch or on the phone because I've had a busy morning. Even so, my iPhone will be drained by mid afternoon at the current burn rate.

Having the same issue. Burned through 50% battery without really doing anything. It definitely seems to be tied to how much you use the watch though
