Battery Doesn't Last The Day!!!!!

Hello everyone,
I just purchased my Blackberry Pearl 8130 not even a week ago and the only thing bugging me right now is the fact that the battery doesn't even last a day. I left it for 6 hrs without touching it and the battery went down 40%!!!!
I am just wondering if this is a common thing with this phone, I mean I know the phone does alot, and I know it is constantly sending and recieving data or at least mine seems to be. I just want to know if anyone has any suggestions on how to improve the battery life! I mean when I first purchased the phone I let the battery run out and then charged it I am not charging it when it is half full, the battery is always dead when I charge it.
Also MSN messenger doesn't seem to be working either I am getting an error 67 failure to reach server....anyone else having this issue???
Sincerely,
Kat

Turn off the gps, if you have gps on the phone and turn off bluetooth, if you're not using it. That will help some. If this continues, go to your provider and ask them who to talk to about battery replacement. Occasionally, a battery just doesn't live up to its charge. Also, you should recharge these types of batteries when they are a little less than half way drained. They are better suited for this type of charging. Only drain completely maybe once a month or so. Hope that helps some. Sam

  • My battery will not last the day on my iphone 5

    I have everything turn off
    Still after a full charge over night by 6 Pm my battery is almost dead
    I do not play all day on this phone it for e-mail and text for work

    Do you have a work email account on your iPhone? Is it an Exchange account?
    If yes, contact your Exchange administrator in your IT department and have him check your account. He will probably see constant polling from your phone and can help you resolve this.

  • I just got an iPod touch, it was fine with battery life before I added Apps but now the battery doesn't last more than a night, what should I do?

    I just got an ipod touch from my sister yesterday which she has had since October. The battery life went for days with her but as soon as I started checking my email and adding apps the battery doesn't last more than a couple of hours. I deleted some apps but no change. I also kept my email logged in and my notifications turned on so I'm wondering if they are part of the problem. Please let me know what I should do. Thank you so much.

    Yes, notifications are part of the problem.  For more information look at at the previous posts on this problem.  Yu can find some of those on the right hand side of this page under the heading: More Like This.  I keep mine in airplane mode when asleep.

  • Hi everyone i have just bought new Ipod touch 32 GB and upgraded to 5.0.1 and it it worse now my battery doesn't last long for more then hvvour. what should i do?

    Hi everyone,
    I have just bought new Ipod touch 32 GB and upgraded to 5.0.1 and it it worse now my battery doesn't last for more then two hour.
    what should i do? it is seriously big problem.
    Please help me.......

    This is a general comment, not directed to anyone, and not to be taken personally by anyone.  This ongoing screw up with the new upgrade (5.0.1) is getting to be a **** SHAME.  In no way can APPLE or anyone else for that matter not know by now that the upgrade is terribly flawed.  The Ipod machines themselves are super great products, and I enjoy mine to the max.  However the upgrade once applied ruins it.   And at least, not to my current knowledge,  there haven't been any fixes forcoming. 
       In my opinion Apple should own up to that fact and warn folks that, even though the upgrade was presented with the best intentions, IT JUST AIN"T WORKING.  And not to download it until further  notice. This noticication could be done through the retail sales outlet, online, what ever.
      I liken this to a pharmaceutical coming out with a new vaccine, encourage everyone to use it, then discover it's bad to the degree it causes it uses to become sick.  Rather then pull the vaccine they keep on allowing unsuspecting ones to continue to vaccinate, and become sick.  What a shame!

  • My battery life doesn't last the work day.  Any suggestions on getting longer life?  Does it have something to do with Apps?

    I can not get my battery life to last an entire work day.  All I really do is check emails, calendars and facebook.  Usually by 4pm, it is 3/4 of the way used up.  Someone told me that I could be because of my apps and that they could be runnign all the time.  Is there a way to turn them off when not using?

  • I bought a ipad mini online from the apple store. His battery doesn't last more than 6h. I return it back to them they send me a new one, but the problem is same. Battery doesn't last more than 5-6h!

    I have purchased a iPad mini online from the Apple store. Since day one I had 2 issues with it. First is that the battery life doesn't last more than 5-6h active usage, and the second one is with the wi-fi. It works properly but after I leave it for a while in sleep mode and try to reuse it, it doesn't want to open a web page or app store or mail (anything connected with the internet search) but it shows that is properly connected with my home network. So I have to turn off the wi-fi connection and turn it on again so it start to work properly. After couple off days this becomed very annoying so I contacted the support via phone and they gave me instructions for return it and that I'll receive a new one without aditional fee. I get the second device in the predicted time but again I have the same issues with the wi-fi and battery life. I will be pleased if someone from the Apple expert team explaine to me what should I do, because I dont find it for normal what is happening. On the Apple official site under the specifications for iPad mini it says that the battery lasts for at least 10h and the wi-fi problem isn't mentioned anywhere. Thanks in advance.

    This is a user to user forum. No one here is an employee or representative of Apple.
    If you want someone from Apple to explain what you should do make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one near you and take your iPad there and talk to Apple. If no Apple store is close enough then call Apple to find out what your alternatives are. There is a Contact Info link at the bottom of every page in this forum.

  • Top case got replaced; battery doesn't last as long as the old one

    My rMBP mid 2012 had a problem with the trackpad so I got the top case replaced, since the warraty was expired and I was stupid enoght not buy the apple care, It cost me around $650 USD, got it back last tuesday, everything seems to work fine except for the battery, it doesn't last as long as the old one, wich is kinda of wierd since the old one was around one and a half years old, should I consider taking it back to the Apple Premiun Reseller where I got it fixed? how common are these issues? Finally I read on reddit that I can ship my laptop to an official Apple store/service and got it diagnose or fixed? Is it worth it? I read that some folks got it exchange for a new one, the conditions of my laptop are pretty good, I have taken extreme good care of it, but some problems still arise, it has a couple of white stuck pixels in the display besides the problems that I already mentioned already.
    Cheers!

    I have the MacBook Air 11' and on http://apple.com it says the battery is supposed to last 9 hours.
    Did you read carefully?
    Note the words 'up to' not 'will' last 9 hours.  Apple makes these measurements based on very minimal resource intensive applications.  My experience that battery run time is much less than these unrealistic advertising claims.  Battery run time will be a function of the number and types of applications that are in use.
    Try a SMC reset:

    That may improve things somewhat.

  • Upgraded Ram, battery doesn't last

    I recently upgraded my Macbook Pro's ram from 4 GB to 8 GB. I have also upgraded to OSX Mavericks. Ever since I changed the Ram, my battery doesn't even last for a few hours. Could it be because of the Ram? It is Apple compatible Ram 1067 Mhz 8 gb

    I m losing about 1 percent every 2-3 minutes. Also, I have now set the ram to 6gb, but still the battery's going down fast. 
    Whether you have 4 GB RAM or 8GB RAM installed will not have any affect on the battery run time.  Based on what you describe, your MBP is experiencing 3 to maybe 5 Hrs battery run time.  Considering that the battery has been cycled 697 times suggests that the run times are not out of line. 
    Do not be fooled by the Apple's advertised 'up to' 1000 cycles.  'Up to' does not equate to 'will".  The criteria that they use do not reflect real world conditions thus the advertised run times will rarely be achieved. 
    If the battery can achieve 80% charge or more of the original 100% design capacity, it is by Apples definition still serviceable.  I suspect in your case that will apply.  The easiest way of determining this is to download Coconut Battery Application and examine the output data.
    There have been some complaints posted on these forums regarding the drop in battery performance with the installation of Mavericks.  This might be a contributing factor and you might test that by reverting to Lion.
    I understand the battery performance is not to your liking, but I can find anything  grossly out of line.  You may consider a visit to an Apple store genius bar and have the technicians examine it.  This is a free service.

  • Battery failure although my battery doesn't fit the exchange program?

    hello there!
    i know there have been a lot of threads about the battery life and failures in the macbook pro but i don't know which one fits my case...
    my mbp is a week 13 and has no problems at all. i don't use the battery that often - by now i have 14 cycles.
    my battery's serial number doesn't fit the exchange program but today happened this odd thing:
    i used my mbp on battery for less than two hours and the battery symbol said that i still have about 50 minutes of battery power. all of a sudden it turned off (as described in many other threads) without any warning and i couldn't turn it on without plugging in the power cable. when i turned it on it started from deep sleep mode (dimmed desktop).
    ...of course i did reset the pram and stuff - but what is going on? as i said i don't meet the exchange program for faulty batteries but still it doesn't seem to work proper.
    what can i do?
    thanks in advance, guys!
    j.

    hi and thank you all for your replies so far!
    over the weekend i took some screenshots showing the various total of mAh. i have no idea if that is normal like this? and the battery is behaving normal again, no random shutdown... you can find the images under the following link...
    http://www.propaganda-pixel.de/mbp/mbp.htm
    in addition i added a photo of my magsafe... now that it comes to the battery issue i got slightly concerned if this crimpy cord should be like this (not that this thing starts to melt on me!).
    when i transport my mbp i wind the cord around those two hooks and i never pull the magsyfe by the cord out. but still it looks like this.
    the power cord is from a week 10 macbook pro which i got exchanged for a week 13 but i had to keep the cord...
    i know, this has nothing to do with the battery issue and no, i'm not paranoid - just now that i started this thread i thought i could add it...
    so my questions are:
    - shall i request a new battery considering the various mAh indications?
    - shall i request a new power cord? or does mine look normal?
    why i ask is because i don't want to request something when there is no need for a replacement.
    thank you all!

  • I have my IPhone 4 2years and 3 months. The battery isnt lasting the day. Should I get a new battery?

    My battery is lasting 5 hours max. Should I get a new battery? I have it 2years and 3 months.

    Depending on the charging cycles of your battery, could be time for an exchange:
    Charge Cycles
    A properly maintained iPhone battery is designed to retain up to 80% of its original capacity at 500 full charge and discharge cycles. You may choose to replace your battery when it no longer holds sufficient charge to meet your needs.
    How much does iPhone Battery Replacement Service cost?
    Service arranged through Apple costs $79. A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if this service requires shipping. All fees are in U.S. dollars and are subject to local tax.

  • IPhone 6 Plus battery doesn't last a full day, not even close to making it to next day, do I have a defective iPhone?

    I wake up in the morning and browse a little bit and play a bit of game before getting out of bed and head to shower while playing music on my phone, these are all done within an hour and my phone has already lost 9% battery. I don't play graphic intensive games.
    I purchased this device 3 days ago.

    My new iPhone 6 also isfar from getting through a full day with what I'd consider moderate usage,
    AAccording to "usage" Facebook seems to be the main culprit so I'm going to turn that off and see how I go...
    got got the screen brightness down reasonably low as I know that has a big effect.
    generally not impressed, is there any other diagnosis or is it a trip to see the geniii!?!?!!

    Very few apps run in the background.

    Hi everybody,
    I hope very much you can help me!
    Since one week I have real trouble with my blackberry tour!
    I have bought only a year ago in the US and no warranty as I live in Germany....
    It started that I had
    - a temperature scale is on my devise, 63 Fahrenheit, 70 Fahrenheit..changing
    - every task takes forever, even opening a new message or dialing a number is a huge step
    - Battery is very quickly empty - I don't use my bb more than usual. SO that is really weird
    and finally
    - if I would like to do a phone call I have to RESTORE MY CONNECTIONS because the Radio is off. (If i don't do it- nothing is working, no internet...

    Please let me know if you have any advice for me!!!!
    THANK YOU
