Battery died in 2 hours with 50% power ... HELP HE...

Am traveling out of country... been trying to keep nokia lumia 900 charged up at all times...last night went to bed with little over 50% power in battery and in about 2 hours, battery was totally dead... ???? don't know why...
I try not to let battery go totally dead before putting on the charger.. what caused the battery to suddenly lose all the power it had in a couple of hours... I can't afford this battery to do this when traveling.. I need the phone.. and where I am .. I have no idea how to get a battery changed in this phone... since I cannot buy a new battery and install myself... Don't know why Nokia made a phone that the consumer cannot change the battery in it by himself... this is not good... I can't have the battery reaching 50% power and then suddenly have it go dead in short time... I had hard time getting it to respond to the electricity charger this morning when I plugged it in...
WHY WOULD THE BATTERY DRAIN THIS FAST WHEN NOT IN USE... IT HAS NEVER DONE THIS BEFORE...THIS IS FIRST TIME IT HAS GONE DEAD..
Please advise... I need to make sure I have battery life when out of the country and I do the best I can to keep it charged up all the times...
thank you
Barbara

Really dont know the answer, but it is better not to discharge the battery cmpletely. In the long run it is better to charge more frequenrly, At least for modern phones as i have found out from battery experts.

Samsung Continuum Battery dies in 3 hours with no use

So the last month or so my Continuum has been dying in 3 hours with zero use while in my pocket with the screen turned off. Yesterday I pulled the battery out (fully charged) and let it sit over night. I put it back in my phone and it had no charge. So it looks like the battery leaks power and is defective.
Does Verizon give free battery replacements or do I need to buy one from Samsung?

@Triplescrew That is definitely regrettable that you are having issues with your battery. I have had similar issues with my phone. Does your battery get hot when you are using the phone? Have you tried calibrating the battery? Which is to say you have let the battery charge up fully, and diminish to the point in which the phone powers off and then repeat this process 3 times? If you have calibrated the battery and are still having issues then you can get the battery replaced. You can give us a call at 800.922.0204 or visit your local Verizon Wireless store. I hope this helps. Thanks.

MBA standby 12 hours with 7% power consumption?

My newly purchased MBA seems not able to be power-efficient as advertised. I put it to sleep for 12 hours on battery, and it drains up 7% power. Sleep for 30 days without power adaptor? I doubt so.
How much power does your MBA take when in sleep mode with battery, let say 12 hours? Is my case normal to you?
I heard that MBA will enter some kind of deep-sleep mode after a few hours of sleep. Is this function build-in to MBA or do I need to install any widget or change settings?
Thank you.

Why would battery die within an hour of having been fully charged?

I have an iphone4 which I usually leave charging over night. This morning I saw it was at 100% unplugged it and went about my things, about an hour later I came back to get the phone and it showed battery life at 17%.
Is it normal for the battery to die within an hour of having been fully charged and without having used the phone at all during that timeframe? Has anyone experienced this before?

There are several possibilities: Your battery may be failing, or it has failed.
You may have an app that is stuck in a loop sending data continuously. If this is the cause the phone will also get hot to touch.
Your battery gauge may be way out of calibration. It can get out of calibration if you never run the battery down to zero before recharging. Apple recommends doing this once a month. To recalibrate it run the battery down to zero until the phone shuts off, then charge for 4 hours with the wall charger without using the phone.

My ipod battery died and now it won't recharge help!

My battery was about dead so I left it in the car but the battery died before I got home. Now it won't turn on, charge or even get recognized by Itunes. I've tried holding the home and power button but nothing. Any help would be great. Thanks

Seriously? If your phone's not working, bring it to Apple for evaluation.

File corrupt whilst working on it when battery died?!! why?! help?

Hey everyone,
I use a Macbook Pro and I've been working on a really important file in Flash CS3 for the past week, and whilst working on the latest version outside yesterday, my battery died suddenly (it had run down, but no message came up to warn me)...
When I restarted my Macbook and tried to reopen this file it came and still comes up with the message "Failed to open document"... All my other files are fine, it's just the file I was working on.
Another message appeared only once, saying something like "Javascript error... cannot find file" but I haven't been able to get that message up again to note it down in full.
Does anyone have any suggestions?? Is there any file recovery software I can use? (preferably free! I'm a student!!) Is there an explanation to why this has happened?? It shouldn't have!
Please help if you can think of anything! I can't even find an apple support number that appears relevant... This file is really important, I've lost days of work that I need asap!
Is there any hope?
Thanks,
Hannah

I have no idea if it is possible to recover the file. Never, ever edit the only copy of a file. It should have been backed up to a different location after every update to the file, preferably under different names so you could roll back to previous versions at any time. Thumb drives are cheap insurance against the problem that you encountered. Does CS3 make it's own backup copies?

HELP! Battery drained and now, even with a power plug, computer won't start

My battery drained completely...and I went to charge it. When I plug the power cord in, it shows "green" not "red." When I remove the battery and just plug in the power cord, the computer won't start either.
Anyone encounter this before after a full battery drain? It's very odd.

I had the same green light non-charging problem. Turns out, I had to replace my wall adaptor. A dealer will have a good power supply you can try.

IPhone battery dying after few hours from 100% charge

Since I upgraded to the iOS 5.1 my battery life on the iPhone 4S has been ridiculous.
For example, I left my house at 740am with my phone on 100%, I have browsed a little (safari and facebook) for no more than 20-30 mins in total. No apps are not running in the background as I ensure to close apps once i have finished with them. And now at 1400 I am left with 28% battery. i am not due to be at home until 1900.
Have I been unlucky with getting a dodgy iPhone from Orange?? the model is MD242B if that helps.
Also, notifications and banners are all turned off except for phone, messages, whatsapp, remainders, calendar.
I am careful not to over charge my phone, I do use an app called BatteryDoc to monitor my charging.
I always let my battery go flat before charging to 100% (with no trickle change), i believe this is a normal charge and what BatteryDoc advises i perform a full charge..
I am slowly regretting this phone after 6 months now.......
any input is welcome.
Thanks,
Cookie

This was driving me insane too. I love my iphone but this is the one flaw. I tried all the "maximizing battery life" suggestions, and it helped slightly.
I have one suggestions: buy an iphone battery case. I bought one off ebay for $29.99 and it is amazing. Nearly doubles the battery and is way nicer than the one at Apple (not to mention 1/4 of the price). The item number is 200795419418 on eBay in case you are interested.
Hope That Helped!!

Thinkpad Twist S230U - Battery Issue (Only 1 hour on full charge)

Hello all,
I'm desperate here. I purchased my Twist from eBay and from that time I've had a battery issue. I was only getting approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes off a full charge before it died.
I mostly just tolerated it and had to keep close to an outlet as I assumed the battery was just bad.
In the last week I decided to do someting about it and bought a replacement battery, opened up my laptop, and replaced the old battery with the new one.
Hopeful that my problem had now been remedied, you can imagine my disappointment when the issue was even slightly worse. Now I get an estimated 1:06 on a full charge.
I installed BatteryBar and it tells me "Capacity: 13,870 mWh of 14,060 mWh" and "Battery Wear: 66.9% of 42,480 mHw".
I'm running Windows 8.1. I've replaced the original hard drive with an SSD. I've installed the "Lenovo Settings Dependency Program" and "Lenovo Power Management Driver". I've tried changing power settings. Nothing works.
A one hour battery life is just miserable. Can anyone provide some insight as to what may be done? I'd appreciate it.

Thanks for the response!
It seems that with Windows 8 there is not a "battery gauge reset" feature included with the Power Manager as there is in other versions of Windows.
Right now I'm trying what is considered a "manual reset" that I read about online. The battery was charged to 100%, now I'm allowing it to drain completely, and then I'll plug it back in and allow it to charge fully.
Is this an appropriate method to reset the battery gauge, or should I be doing something else?
Thank you.

Hi, my MacBook Air is not working anymore if it's not connected with the power cable. It's pretty new so I can't imagine that the battery is dead already. Why can't I use my MacBook Air without the power cable even though I charged it for hours?

My ipod touch is frozen on a screen with the ipod logo and the usb charger cable...i cannot get rid of it...i let the battery die...i held the sleep button and the power buttons..anyone have any ideas?

my ipod touch is frozen... the screen has a picture of the itunes logo and a usb charger. I have held the sleep button and the power button to reset and i have let the battery die and started to recharge...niether worked. any ideas???

Try charing it to 50% at least.
If all else fails, try putting it in DFU mode. Connect it to iTunes, (iTunes may not detect the device, but that's ok) hold the power and home buttons down for 10 seconds, then release the power button but keep holding the home button until it goes into DFU mode. iTunes should detect it and ask for a restore.

Battery died, wont hold a charge, just died. Fully charged battery dies in approx 2 hours. Is it battery gone bad. Or something causing battery to use excessive amount of energy. Do you lose data if battery goes out?

Battery died, wont hold a charge. After fully charging battery, battery loses all power in 2 hours. Is this indicative of a battery gone bad or something else? Will I lose data if battery completely dies?

Hi, thanks for the reply.
Yes I have done the reset-didn't work.
Yeh, the calibration was done so the phone turned off, then plugged back in to charge back to 100%!
The iphone4s was connected to the charger outlet, the second I unplugged the phone the battery percentage went from 100% to 98%.
AS we speak my phone is now on 100%, after 10 mins usage and 33 minutes standby. This just doesn't correlate with the decrease in battery life associated with every other number (e.g 99,98,97%) apart from when it is on 100%.

Help, my ipad wont turn off and the screen is blank with the circle that goes around and around. Should i let the battery die? Was I hacked?

Help! My ipad wont turn off and wont open a screen. Just blank with the circle going round and around. was I hacked? Should I let the battery die? I am lame at this stuff.

Have you tried holding down the power and the home buttons until the slider bar shows up to shut down the iPad?

Why does my battery die so quickly with iOS 7?

Why does my battery die so quickly with iOS 7? Charged to 100%. Unplugged and opened up an hour later. Down to 88%. Why? No apps open.

I think it might also be a bug, my 4S went down to 1% I could actually see it go down from 18% just like a watch. The phone started at about 60% and went down to 1% in about an hour but the useage still stated I had over 6 hours of stand by time, when I plugged in the phone to charge it jumped from 1% to 27%.
