Battery heating up iOS 7.1.2

Since updating from iOS 7.1 to iOS 7.1.2 I'm experiencing a hotter than normal battery when levels drop down to about 20% and the phone is in use.
just wondering if anyone else also has same problem

In my lifetime with the fruit I came across some weird power drainage. Once I had (as always) my phone in the inside of my jacket's pocket and it was fully charged. Took it out an hour later and it was dead. Not even "plug in to charge" icon came up. At home when plugged it in nothing happened! Eventually went to bed and only the next morning it was back to life as normal.
Then again with current phone that was fully charged and I went to bed, woke up and phone had only 6% of battery left. No sleep monitoring app was left running etc. Phone was not covered by anything that would accumulate heat, like in a previous case that was inside the jacket's pocket.
Crazy flukes.

5s battery & heating issue (ios 8.1.3)!!!!!!!

i just bought 5s and updated it to ios 8.1.3, my maximum battery life is 4 and half hours of continues usage (just downloading apps and browsing and chat and no games), is that normal??

Hi Bebars100,
The resource below will provide information and tips to maximize the battery performance of your iPhone. If you follow these suggestions and still have issues with your new iPhone, it may require service.
Apple - Batteries - Maximizing Performance
https://www.apple.com/batteries/maximizing-performance/
“Battery life” is the amount of time your device runs before it needs to be recharged. “Battery lifespan” is the amount of time your battery lasts until it needs to be replaced. Maximize both and you’ll get the most out of your Apple devices
Your device is designed to perform well in a wide range of temperatures, with 62° to
72° F (16° to 22° C) as the ideal comfort zone. It’s especially important to avoid exposing your device to temperatures higher than 95° F (35° C), which can permanently damage battery capacity. That is, your battery won’t power your device as long on a given charge. Charging the device in high temperatures can damage it further. Even storing a battery in a hot environment can damage it irreversibly. When using your device in a very cold environment, you may notice a decrease in battery life, but this condition is temporary. Once the battery’s temperature returns to its normal operating range, its performance will return to normal as well.
iPhone, iPad, and iPod work best at 32° to 95° F (0° to 35° C). Storage temperature: -4° to 113° F (-20° to 45° C).
MacBook works best at 50° to 95° F (10° to 35° C). Storage temperature: -4° to 113° F (-20° to 45° C).
Charging your device when it’s inside certain styles of cases may generate excess heat, which can affect battery capacity. If you notice that your device gets hot when you charge it, take it out of its case first.
If you want to store your device long term, two key factors will affect the overall health of your battery: the environmental temperature and the percentage of charge on the battery when it’s powered down for storage. Therefore, we recommend the following:
Do not fully charge or fully discharge your device’s battery — charge it to around 50%. If you store a device when its battery is fully discharged, the battery could fall into a deep discharge state, which renders it incapable of holding a charge. Conversely, if you store it fully charged for an extended period of time, the battery may lose some capacity, leading to shorter battery life.
Power down the device to avoid additional battery use.
Place your device in a cool, moisture-free environment that’s less than 90° F (32° C).
If you plan to store your device for longer than six months, charge it to 50% every six months.
Depending on how long you store your device, it may be in a low-battery state when you remove it from long-term storage. After it’s removed from storage, it may require 20 minutes of charging with the original adapter before you can use it.
There are two simple ways you can preserve battery life — no matter how you use your device: adjust your screen brightness and use Wi-Fi.
Dim the screen or turn on Auto-Brightness to extend battery life.
To dim, swipe up from the bottom of any screen to open Control Center and drag the Brightness slider to the left.
Auto-Brightness adjusts your screen to lighting conditions automatically. To activate it, go to Settings > Display & Brightness and set Auto-Brightness to On.
When you use your device to access data, a Wi-Fi connection uses less power than a cellular network — so keep Wi-Fi on at all times. There are two ways to turn on Wi-Fi:
Swipe up to open Control Center, tap the Wi-Fi icon, and log in to a Wi-Fi network.
Go to Settings > Wi-Fi to access a Wi-Fi network.
iOS 8 is designed to be the most battery-efficient iOS ever. And it gives you more precise ways to manage your device’s battery life, because you can see the proportion of your battery used by each app (unless the device is charging). To view your usage, go to Settings > General > Usage > Battery Usage.
Here are the messages you may see listed below the apps you’ve been using:
Background Activity. This indicates that the battery was used by the app while it was in the background — that is, while you were using another app
To improve battery life, you can turn off the feature that allows apps to refresh in the background. Go to Settings > General > Background App Refresh and set the switch to Off.
If the Mail app lists Background Activity, you can choose to fetch data manually or increase the fetch interval. Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data.
Location and Background Location. This indicates that the app is using location services.
You can optimize your battery life by turning off Location Services for the app. Turn off in Settings > Privacy > Location Services.
In Location Services, you can see each app listed with its permission setting. Apps that recently used location services have an indicator next to the on/off switch.
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 drain after IOS 6 update

I and my 3 family members and two fellow employees have all noticed that since upgrading to IOS 6 on our cellphones we have had the following issues;
1. Massive battery drain
2. Battery heat-up during recharge with the phone on but not being used.
3. Lost data
With the phone on and not being used - the charge level drops much faster. I used to go the whole day on one charge and recharge at 10 pm with 30 - 40% of the charge left. Since the IOS 6 upgrade I'm recharging at 4pm with a 10% charge remaining on the phone .
Also - recharging the phone while it is on (but not in use) causes noticible battery heat-up.
Again - this was not the case for any of the 6 of us prior to downloading IOS 6
My conclusion is that there are aspects of this new operating system that use a lot more battery juice than the previous IOS 5.1.1
This significantly increased demand on the battery is showing up as much less operating time and battery heat-up during recharging.
Anybody else experiencing these issues ?

Got onto Apple Teckies yesterday & spent about 1.5 hours on the phone with a very helpfull bloke
that went through everything.
At this stage my phone has been reinstalled with iOS 6 as a New Phone (Like a test mode) so NONE
of my APP's or Settings only my Contacts from iCloud (As a New phone would come out of the box).
... From the time we finished uploading the iOS 6 softwear untill now my phone has only used 40%
battery so it's looking good.
If this works I then have to conect my phone with my iTunes & Reinstall from my Back Up to get all
My App's & Settings back.
... Then we will see if it has worked.
... Will let you all know what happens in the next 48 Hours.

Battery heating

I have the original battery that came with the Thunderbolt. I noticed if I'm using mobile web for maybe over 20 minutes or so, I can feel the battery heating up. Is anyone else experiencing this with the original battery? Is this "normal"? I don't notice it heating up when I just text or use the phone for voice calls. It's past the 14d period when I can return the phone. My laptop was doing the same thing (heating up), until finally it "burned out" the inside and has had to be repaired several times. I'd HATE for the same thing tohappen to my Thunderbolt, especially since I have 2 years with it. (Footnote: I did not purchase the extended warranty.) Help!!!

Download from the market "Battery Monitor" application and it will show you much more information about battery including its temperature. Normailly working battery temperature (not during charging) range is from 80F (27C) and should not exceed 105F (40C). If your battery is getting hotter than 105F during normal operation, you are risking of damaging not just a battery but also internal components of the phone.

Yellow Battery Heating up

Has anyone run into the Pearl battery heating up?
My has done it a couple of times where the whole device is heated up because of the battery, I take out the battery, put it back in a minute later, it cools down, but the charge has completely drained. Then everything works normal again.
It's only 6 months old.

I think you should resolve the issue quickly...otherwise this would damage your device.

Ingress software or iPhone issue over app crash and battery heating up

Hi all
As you know the ingress games requires you to keep the phone while moving around to recharge the XM, and of course that reduce dramatically the battery, so I do carry a battery pack or two.
Recently, when the phone is kept on for a few hours my iPhone 4s automatically shut down, or even crash the ingress app. and the phone heats up after kept on for over just over 3 hrs, and sometimes beyond this the phone shuts down.
Does anyone have this battery heating up issues or automatic shutting down after hours of keeping the phone on even connected to a battery pack?

While on the HOME screen double-press the Home button. The Quick Launch bar will appear on the bottom of the screen. Hold any icon until they all display "-", then tap the "-" on each one until they are all gone.
Next, reboot the phone by holding the HOME and SLEEP buttons until an Apple logo appears.
BTW, this assumes your phone is not jailbroken. If it is then that is your problem, and you will have to find solutions somewhere else, as it can't be discussed in an Apple-hosted forum.

Is anyone having problems with the battery heating up and draining the power? Mine has been doing this for about 2 months now.

This is a major problem with Lollipop, but yo said it started 2 months ago. Several people have fixed problem by removing FaceBook And Face book messenger and then re loading the apps again. You might want to clear your cache before reloading. Not sure this is your problem, but worth a try. Good Luck

N73 BATTERY BP 6M BATTERY HEATING DURING CHARGIN...

N73 BATTERY BP 6M BATTERY HEATING DURING CHARGING AND DISCHARCHING WITH IN HOURS FROM CHARGING ITS SIZE IS ALSO INCREASED

Please replace your battery with new one RIGHT NOW. Continue using this BP-6M may cause danger.
Usually turning heat while charging is normal, especially when charging in big current. And after the battery get older and older, the internal resistance will incrase as well, and this will generate more heat while charging. However, if the battery gets very hot while charging, much hotter than before, or suddenly become hot, you need to pay extra attention to it, 'coz this is a dangerous signal that saying your battery may have problems.
BUT, if a battery becomes to discharging quickly, in most case you need to replace it as quick as possible, for there may be slight short circuit inside it. If you continue using a battery in this condition, the level of short circuit may increase and at last, it may be totally short circuited and EXPLODE or BURN.
You've said the size of your battery is also bigger than before, so I can 99% sure that, your battery is no longer usable, REPLACE IT RIGHT NOW and handle it properly.

MacBook Alum battery heating up while being charged and used

MacBook Alum battery heating up while being charged and used at the same time.
Is this normal? Or is it only mine? :S

The battery itself as in the bottom left side of the notebook or the white magsafe adapter that is actually plugged in? Either way, it is supposed to get warm unless you are talking burning hot on fire. Then of course it is a little too warm.

Iphone 4s battery melts after ios 7.1

Last Friday I've upgraded to IOS 7.1. especially after learning that the upgrade is especially helpful for iphone 4s,
Yes it fastens the device but the battery "melts"
I've searched the issue from the web and applied all the suggestions to improve battery life after ios 7.1.
If I don't use internet facilities (even wi-fi) its OK, no problem,
But from the moment I begin to use wi-fi or cellular its like a count down 95-94-93-92...., feel really bad about it,
Now I just use it as a "phone" not a smart phone,
If a want to use it as a "smart phone" it is no longer a mobile- I shoul use it with battery charger,
Hope a fix will come as soon as possible,

Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)
If this doesn't help, back up and restore via iTunes. If the problem continues, restore as a new device and test. If the problem is solved, there is some kind of corruption in your backup file or maybe it's one of your apps causing problems. If it continues, take it to an Apple Store for evaluation of a possible hardware problem.

How to save battery life for ios 7

How do you save battery life

There is many things to help save battery life on IOS, hear are some battery saving tips I use when with low battery .
Battery saver 1: Turn off Bluetooth , by going to "Settings>Bluetooth" and switching the little "On/Off" toggle.
Battery saver 2: Turn down the screen brightness half way or just below is fine, for at home, but if you use your idevice outside turn it up just below max brightness so you can see the screen, to turn up or down brightness you can navigate to "Settings>Wallpaper and Brightness" and there will be a slider to adjust brightness.Or if you are on IOS 7 you can swipe up from the bottom of the screen and it will bring up "Action Centre" and there will be a little sun icon, next to it will be another brightness slider, to exit "Action Centre" press the home button or just swipe the little down arrow.
Battery saver 3: Volume turn the volume up and down at certain times of day "eg: I turn volume up full or just below in the afternoons because most things are going on in the afternoon that probably make lots of noise, and at night turn it down because your ears have adjusted to quietness and can pickup on quieter sounds".
Battery saver 4: Turn off WIFI when not in use "eg when playing games or just switched off" you can do this by going to "Settings>WIFI" there will be a "On/Off" toggle or via "Action Centre" "IOS 7+".
Battery saver 5: When your not going to be using your device for a while shut it down by holding the "Sleep/Wake" button.
Battery saver 6: Close apps running in the background by double tapping the home button and holding down the running apps then tap the little "-" minus in a red circle to close "IOS 6 and lower", things are a little different with IOS 7 its the same process of double tapping the home button but a different way to execute the apps, you do this by swiping "Up" on the open apps. "Tip: You can swipe 3 at once!".

My iPhone 5s is loosing its battery very fast like if I charge it 80-90% at night then till morning it gets off. Please help is it battery problem or ios update. I updated it to ios 7.1

IPhone 5s battery getting drained up very soon is it problem of battery of its ios 7.1 problem.
Like if I charge it to 90% at night till 11 pm then till morning at 7 am I found it dead.
Please suggest me what to do.
Should I opt for battery replacement.

Return the iPhone personally or via friend/relative/co-worker who is in
the US. The warranty is valid only in the country of original purchase - the USA
in this case. Apple will not accept international shipments for evaluation nor
will Apple ship out of the country after repair/replacement.
How did the iPhone from the US get to you in India? Reverse that process to
get it back to the US so someone can take it into Apple.
