Battery Drain On Curve

I'm not running any chat programs, and only have Gmail, Google Search, running, along with the basic applications, including Telenav. My battery charge won't last 8 hours, and the phone isn't 2 weeks old yet. Any suggestions?

Would having GMail Mobile Update cause battery drain? Notsure what else to eliminate or what could be causing the drain. Can't last 8 hour day without drained battery. Any help would be appreciated. Janice

Blackberry battery draining like crazy!!

Okay, so my blackberry was working fine and suddenly one day when I just opened it up for about an hour the battery died. Then the next day it got worse and died in about half an hour. Now whenever I open it for about five, ten minutes it would either say "battery drained, shutting down handheld" or go black and I can't restart it. I tried to take out the battery and put it back in but most of the time it doesn't work. The times it worked and it showed me that there's 80% battery left!!! Before the autoshutdown it was showing 10%!!!! Could someone help because I have to use this BB for work.

This is driving me nuts, but I solved it! Same thing, all of a sudden one day battery started to die after 30 minutes being off the charger, 3-4 calls, a couple texts and red warning of death shows up, blackberry (Curve 8530) shuts down. I did a little reading and it turns out what it is, is the CPU is working overtime on something unknown, possibly just stuck in a loop, and so just like a stubborn computer, I rebooted it. Just hit left-alt, right-shift, del keys all at the same time and hold it till it reboots. This is a soft reboot so you won't wipe it. Viola! Blackberry back to normal for full days use again. Unfortunatly, I went and bought a new battery in the meantime making the assumption. I hate to say it, but this is my last Blackberry, I am really tired of these silly issues with no support. It's driving me nuts when my friends flaunt their trouble free various smartphones. Along the line, RIM forgot all about customer support, there is no way we the customers should be left struggling with these issues on our own, time and time again. This is a common problem and no solutions coming from them directly. Sad.

Battery drain and error in event log!!!

So I recently got a curve 9360, but battery life wasn't the 1 and a half days I expected. Doesn't last more than 5 hrs on normal use, and it falls drastically when doing slightly heavy work like now, bridged to my PlayBook like now, it turns of radio at about 30% then blacks out in under 5 minutes. So i did some digging around and most people said it was the OS, so I downloaded the os that most people say fixed there curve's, got a response for 7.1.0.190 and 7.1.0.258, bug still no difference. Out of curiosity I checked my event long and found this error ,
Name: System
Severity: Error
GUID: 97c9f5f641d25e5f
Time: "the date and time shown"
JVM:INFOp=mypin,a='7.1.0.190',o='9.6.0.24',h=e001507
So when I changed the os to 7.1.0.190, still got the same error and it's always at the top of the event log so am guess its what's causing the battery drain. Changed batteries, and wiped the OS and reinstalled but no solution.
Any help people!

Hi,
The Certificate Chain you installed on the FE server did not have "Enable all purposes for this certificat" enabled.
Run MMC--Add\Remove Snap-ins--certificates--Local Computer--Trusted Root Certificate Authorities--Certificates, find the certificate chain you installed--Properties--General, check the "Enable all purposes for this certificate".
Restart Lync FE server and check the problem is solved.

Upgraded to OS v5 now battery drain

Hi, I recently made the mistake of upgrading my OS on my Telus BB 8350i Curve. I have had many issues with the new upgrade but the one that is driving me crazy is the battery drain since the upgrade. Previously I got almost 2 days on a full charge, and now I can't get 6 hrs. Have tried everything, battery pull, resets, took it to the Telus store, they gave me a new phone and a new battery...still no change. it must be some kind of setting or something that changed in my profile
I would appreciate any help or suggestions anyone has
thank you

A coworker has the exact same phone and problem, I upgraded his phone yesterday and now he says his battery will be drained by mid day from a full charge in the morning.
Not sure if there is a setting to adjust, or if there is just some glitch in the upgrade that is causing the phone to constantly do something. From the sounds of it though, this specific model has had more than its share of issues.

Battery drained phone wont start up or charge

i recently bought a curve 9360 about 5months ago. recently my battery drained and the phone shut down, when i plugged the charger in the red led stays on for about 10-20 secs then goes off. is my phone still charging but just wont turn on? or could there be a problem with my phone as my charger works in other phones

Try removing the battery to try and reboot the device. It's possible that something else went wrong with the device. If that doesn't work I would contact your wireless service provider.

Battery draining/over heating issues - 925

hi all,
ive had this issue for a while now but havnt moaned about it until now but ive just had enough of this constant issue and want some help
i have the lumia 925 and have the above simptons, i have the lumia amber update and have disabled every setting and background app the only thing i have enabled and running in the backround are -
touch display is turned on (double tap to wake)
on my home screen i have the apps - Photos, Battery, Bing news, The Weather Chanel, set as live tiles
the backround apps i have running are - Battery, Bing News, Facebook and whatsapp
apart from that all other settings are disabled or off
i can disable bing news if have to but i dont think this is the issue here as before i was having the exact problem
one time i noticed a 30% decrease in battery, not to mention the battery got really hot in hand

Hey Robert,
If it's anything like my 920, sometimes it gets caught in a CRAZY battery drain cycle. Sometimes it may get hot, sometimes not, but I always make sure that my GPS is working correctly. A lot of times it's not, and I need to reset the phone by either turning it off or holding down the power and volume down buttons.
Especially check any apps that you may have downloaded that may be using GPS. Also, if you do the power + volume down, always turn your phone off again the normal slide down way afterwards or your live tiles won't update correctly.

Heating and battery drain

I fully charged my iPhone 4 in the morning and since from that time it is hot and the battery drained with in 3 hours after the full charge.
Can any one help me to fix this..:(

Multitasking on iPod Touch 4G, running iOS 6.1.2, nearly impossible. Opened, background apps do not seem to stay in memory and must "reload" every time I switch back to them. Also, intense battery drain (imo).

Let's say I'm playing Words with Friends, and also Angry Birds. I may want to go back and forth between the two. When I do so, the app that was in the background needs to reload again. There is no quick access or ability to quickly resume where I left off. And the reloading means that the app restarts from its opening screens...so if I was working on a level, I have to start all over again. And quite often, a game like Angry Birds will lag greatly when I first open it...moving almost in slow-motion.
I don't know if this is typical behavior when playing multiple games, or if I have an issue with my device. I've rebooted and even reset and restored, all to no avail.
There doesn't appear to be as much of an issue if I'm playing one game but also have the music player open, or Safari, Notes, Reminders, etc. Those will resume just fine, though there may be some lag when opening/re-opening them.
So I guess the problem seems to lie within 3rd party apps, and not the apps that are part of the iPod/iOS.
The other problem is battery drain. I do all of my music listening via Bluetooth, so I expect that to have a greater impact than if I were using plugged in headphones, and I have location services turned on. But I have most notifications turned off, all email accounts set to manual and not push, screen brightness turned down and auto brightness turned on, "ask to join networks" turned off, auto-lock is set to 2 minutes but I almost always turn off the screen immediately after setting up my music listening (since I do so at work), volume limit turned on, EQ turned off, sound check turned off,
With these settings, my battery can drain 20% or more within 10-15 minutes of game play. And these are not what I would consider memory intensive games--just Words and Angry Birds.
I've installed (and recently uninstalled) a couple of battery meters from the Apple Store as well--freebies. Carat, Battery Doctor, Battery HD, Battery Magic.
Carat and Battery Doctor seemed to offer the most pertinent and accurate information so the others were uninstalled long ago.
The Accelerate tab in Battery Doctor show the amount of memory in use, and the amount of available memory. The vast majority of the time, the memory in use is approximately 94%. I will occasionally choose to "accelerate" which supposedly frees up memory, but this "bump" lasts only a brief time and I'm not sure it's a great idea.
Even with absolutely nothing open or running, my used memory is generally still above 80%.
Carat, if anyone is familiar with it, shows a J-Score. My J-Score is 17, which means that my performance (according to Carat, anyway) is better than only 17% of the users who have Carat installed. In other words, 83% of people are getting better performance from their devices. It also has "battery hog" and "battery bug" sections. It doesn't detect any hogs or bugs.
I use my iPod Touch in rather limited ways. A typical day consists of approximately 5 hours of music listening via Bluetooth and 30 minutes to 1 hour of playing the aforementioned games. The occasional note and reminder, perhaps a brief check-in with the weather, and that's about it. And wifi is in use only when at home (there is no hotspot at work). Still, I need to charge it every day. I'd be keen to do more with the iPod if I could count on it to last more than a day.
I've read up on multiple forums and blogs for tips on prolonging a battery charge, and believe I've taken everything into account, and applied whatever I could. I've even reset the network settings and try to discharge the battery completely once a month (for supposed battery calibration).
I'm really hoping people can offer some suggestions or comments on whether this is typical behavior or if my battery is going, or even offer some additional tips.
With iOS 7 on the horizon, I'm hoping the upgrade will offer some resolutions (I've read there is better multitasking), but considering how weakly my device performs at this point, I'm not entirely convinced that an iOS upgrade will actually make any improvements.
Thanks a lot for reading.

No, the app does not have to completely restart. It gets shifted in its open state into storage. Similar to how a computer uses the hard disk when it has insufficient memory.
What complicates things is that sometimes memory does not get returned for reuse when you close an app. Thus yo should periodically double click the Home button and "delete" unnecessary apps from the multitasking dock and power off and then back on the iPod.

Dell Venue 8 Pro Battery Drain, Support No Help

I lose a silly amount of battery life when the tablet is not in use.
Battery life isn't great when in use either.
Dell support wouldn't do an exchange because the diagnostic check came back fine.
They did tell me to turn down screen brightness etc., not very helpful because I've tried all that. Stayed on Dell's recommended settings trying to avoid this issue. My sleep study seems to indicate that the unit is rarely in sleep at all.
If a fresh install of windows doesn't fix this. I'm done. And dell support has been anything but actually supportive. If it doesn't fall in a checklist you are sol.

THIS IS IN RESPONSE TO THE PERSON THAT SAID THEY DO NOT WANT TO RMA IT//WARRANTY WHEN STILL NEW AND ALSO RELATIVE TO POSTS ABOUT CHARGING WITH BACKUP
I know my response is rather dated, but when you have a severe battery drain issue, just return the unit for an exchange where you bought it.
I know some people mite not have bought it at a "brick" joint, but you should always try to buy your etoolz online, but at a local store for pickup, so you can check it all out and within that window of time offered, return for refund or exchange.
BBuy locally tried to send stuff back for warranty reply, but I always point out the fact it's still under returnable terms, so I can either get a refund or return/exchange and not mess around waiting on my gear.
There are also other ways to buy an other "new" tablet and "exchange" it//the old one also thereby bypassing all stops and go's and getting your new tablet replaced.
I'm always plugged in or on an external battery pack//backup battery pack on DV8Pro anyways, so battery life for me is always longterm.....
For those of you finding you aren't able to charge your via backup battery pack due to cable issues, remember you need a "dumb" usb//"charge" only cable or dumb dongle that makes your cable ""CHARGE ONLY"",,, then it will always charge via any usb powered source.
For example for you that don't understand fully, sometimes devices such as rechargeable peripherals like keyboards and mice and all kinds of non pc devices that now use what appears to be a data cable but is only a charging cable, which does not allow throughput of data due to the fact it's sole purpose is to CHARGE a device, that cable will work.
Like some small radios and bicycle lights and other devices now come with "USB" enabled recharging, and the cables look just like a data cable and will fit a fone, phablet or any standard mini usb plug, those cables are usually CHARGE ONLY, and this is what you need to add to your DV8Pro so it will charge universally bus wise.

MacBook Air Mid-2013 Battery Draining FAST (about 5-6 hours at best)

I have been having problems with my Mac's battery draining very fast even on light usage. Simply using Safari will drain my battery in 5 to 6 hours, when my laptop would last the stated 12+ hours before when browsing the internet. I followed these steps yesterday...
Reset com.apple.finder.plist, com.apple.sidebarlists.plist and com.apple.desktop.plist
- Open a new finder window
- Choose Go > Go to folder. Your destination is ~/Library/Preferences
- Locate com.apple.finder.plist and rename it to com.apple.finder_backup.plist
- Locate com.apple.sidebarlists.plist and rename it tocom.apple.sidebarlists_backup.plist
- Do the same for com.apple.desktop.plist. Note: This file was missing in my folder. If so: nevermind.
- Open Terminal and type: killall Dock
Reset your SMC:
- shut down your system
- plug in the magsafe
- hold down shift+ctrl+alt+power for a second, then release. Your magsafe should blink
- do this three times
Reset PRAM:
- turn on your mbp and hold down alt+cmd+p+r immediately
- hold down the keys until you hear the startup sound the second time
- release the keys and let the MBP boot.
Give your system some time to adjust to the changes: after a while it should show you a much increased battery time.
...but to no avail, it didn't have any effect on my machine. I'm not sure what to do. :'( Activity monitor shows Safari as having a "10.7 average energy impact" (I don't know what that means in all honesty) and is the highest consumer on the list, with Dropbox being number two on the list saying the average is 1.9 at the moment. I quit background applications so I know that's not an issue — I don't know where to go from here. Also, my battery max/health is 6909 at 97% health, so I do know it's getting a near-full charge. I miss having 12+ hours of battery as that's what I bought this for. Should I go to the Genius Bar and see what they can do?

Hi hawknelson24,
It sounds like you have been on the right track. If you are looking for more options for troubleshooting your battery issue before potentially taking your Air in for service, you may find the following article helpful:

Iphone 4s battery draining too fast

I just received my iphone 4s and I have upgraded from my 3s, after holding on for so long I am so disappointed with the battery life. after 2 phone calls the battery drains 15 %, I have turned off all the features to make sure it lasts me at least till I can charge it again. any solutions out there, off course apple says there is no problem, just like we have no problems with the economy.

Quick fix for you!!!!!!
Go to settings//Location Services//System Services//turn "Setting time Zone" and "Diagnostic & Usage" OFF.
These things will drain you to Zero fast. and tell Apple there is an issue with the Setting Time Zone feature.
Its constantly locating your phone second by second when it's suppose only work when you leave one time zone and go to another.

IPhone 5S Battery Draining Unusually fast

I got an iPhone 5S in November and for the first few months it was working fine. For the past two weeks I have noticed the battery draining unusally quickly. Like the battery drains an avg 1-2% on 5 mins of me just using the phone on Instagram. I regularly close all my apps and live in Pakistan where there is no 3G so the LTE issue should not come into play either. I have read countless articles on how to fix your battery life and have tried everything from turning location services off to brightness to anything that is being suggested, even re installed iOS7 on my phone. I have to know charge my phone three times a day from it usually giving me a full day on standby. Any suggestions please?

Take it back to the Apple store and tell them that didn't fix the issue. You might have a hardware issue. Before you take it back though do a backup on your computer.

Iphone 4s battery draining extremly fast

iphone 4s battery draining extremly fast, how annoying is that, Battery will be drain out within 12 hrs and I just usually watch 30 mins video (not using 3G/wifi) and 10mins on Phone .
I always turn off my Siri, Auto Detect Time Zone, 50% Brightness, NO background Apps are running and Mail is manually updated.
Does anyone facing the same problem?

Go to advanced and set icloud to manual I used to suffer from this because of icloud it was stuck in a loop and always draining the battery, try also resetting your network settings if it didn't work reset all settings and set it as a new phone drain the battery and charge it from 0 to 100% to recalibrate the battery , hope this works for you
