Battery keeps on draining fast in iOS 6.1..

battery keeps on draining fast in iOS 6.1.. when my phone was set up as a new phone, battery works fine but after installing some apps and restoring syncing with gmail for my contacts, battery starts draining fast..please help
I dont know what to do now. I have lots of contacts, and the only way to get them is through gmail...please help

The issue is probably specific to your iPhone:
Something may have gone amiss in the upgrade to iOS 6.1.3 on your iPhone.
To correct this follow these steps:
Backup your iPhone using iTunes or iCloud.
Use iTunes to completely restore your iPhone as new.
Setup your iPhone and monitor battery usage to see if it is normal. If not, you may have a hardware problem - if so, contact Apple support.
Restore your iPhone from your backup above.
Check battery usage to confirm that it remains normal.

IPhone 4 battery still draining fast after ios 5.0.1 update

5.0.1 update did not help, my battery still drains just as fast as it did on 5.0. My phone used to last 2 days no problem, now it lasts about 6 hours, I could go to bed at 5% and wake up with 3%, now if I got to bed with 25% it's dead by morning. I have all iCloud services turned off, only Maps turned on for location services, notifications for Phone, Messages, Reminders, Calendar, CNBC RT and Words Free. I have 2 email accounts, one is a pop3 and the other Exchange, both are set to pull every hour and preview is turned off. Is the issue with notifications? the only thing that has changed from 4 to 5 is I have notifications turned on and my reminders & tasks are synced with Exchange. I'm starting to think the issue is with notifications, I tried to turn off email notifications for the lock screen but they still show up.
Are we getting another update after 5.0.1 soon for the continued battery drain issue?
Email notifications continue to display for locked screen even though the option says Off, is there something else I'm missing?

Do we really need another thread, with over 7,000 posts already on other threads?

IPhone 5s battery drain fast with iOS 8.1.2

I have iPhone 5s from 1 year. After updating to 8.1.2 battery draining fast. I needs charge the battery 3-4 times a day. I did the restore as new, but no change. Stopping the apps does not help. Please for advice.

I have also experienced this, but I think I have started to narrow things down. First of all, I am on an iPhone 5S 32gb, and I did NOT have any of these battery issues under 8.1.1, but since upgrading, the battery drains more quickly for sure.
What I have noticed, however, is that there are some strange correlations going on with what appears to be ridiculously severe battery drain - my phone will show 50% battery, and minutes later (of normal use, taking photos, screen at about 50% brightness, no overt internet or GPS activity) it will suddenly shut down completely. This seems to happen most WHEN IT IS COLD and I am using it outside.
When I try to turn it back on right after, I get the "plug me in" screen, as one would expect with a dead phone. However, if I wait a few minutes and let the phone warm up a bit, I hold down the power switch and on it comes, and when it comes on, the battery indicator will show 50% battery life again. I think of this as my FALSE BATTERY DRAIN problem, possibly unrelated to the actual battery life. I have only noticed this happening while running the Camera or Safari apps. Looking at my usage doesn't seem to turn up any surprises.
So Apple... what the heck is going on here? Is this an OS problem, is it an issue with your apps, with app conflicts... what is going on?
This is unacceptable. You know after being an Apple user for 35 years now I am not going to switch to Android lightly, but this is pushing me that way, and it is certainly going to keep me from updating to a newer, shinier phone until you show some commitment to supporting your users, who seem to be experiencing battery issues rather frequently these days.
Please at least show some INTEREST in being involved in this solution... I'm not seeing any indications of effort to fix this.
Thank you.

Re: Battery Drains Faster in iOS 5 ?

Hello,
I have marked that Battery drain faster if using apps in iOS 5 then the previous version, but the idle time is better in iOS 5.
In my case after fully charged, my phone show 100% if its in idle mode for 7 hours, but as soon as i start some apps the battery drains faster, like if i use the apps for 15 min the battery remains at 80%.
Have anybody experience this ?

@dimoff: I didn't experience the same thing with other mobiles, even of Nokia. I have Lumia 525, Moto G(Dual Sim). My wifi is always on and i use the phone without any problem for 1.5 days.
But where as Lumia 630, without any phone calls, only idel phone it could stand only for 1 day.
On the contrary what i have experienced is when i use 3G, battery is consulmed more tha wifi.

Iphone 5s battery drains faster on ios 8.1.2

Hi,
Facing problem of battery drains faster after 8.1.2 update. Phone low signals, App store low signals

PPhone low signal? Are you saying your phone is having issue getting a strong cellular data signal? If so that is why your phone is draining battery at a faster rate.

Iphone 5s battery drains fast after ios 7.1 update.

Am I the only one who seems to be experiencing this? My iphone 5S battery seem to drain much faster than usual, and charge longer. I heard that the new update is supposed to increase battery life, and read comparison threads regarding other iphones that are capable of a much better battery life than mine.
I've had my phone for 3 months, never have dropped it once or anything of the sort, if that matters. My battery drains to 50% within an hour or so after intense use on the lowest level of brightness, and I seem to lose about 5-7 percents when on standby for 5 hours or so. Is this normal? Is it perhaps due to the fact that I am mostly using 3g, and applications that require more processing such as tumblr (graphics and gifs) as well safari? I'm just worried that my battery may be draining to quick, despite the update which's supposed to make it much better according to many people.
Thanks.

Me too.
I went from plugging in to charge at the end of the night, around 11pm, to barely getting through a workday with very light use. With less than 10 hrs of standby and maybe 30 minutes with the screen even on I am rocking 15% battery life. I'm also connected to wifi whenever at home or in the office, which accounts for over 9 hours of the standby time.
I know people are suggesting turn off features... but eff that, 5 days ago I'd get through an entire day without any issue, under much heavier useage. I don't want to have to turn on bluetooth everytime I get in my car and back off when I get out, I just want it to work when I turn the car on... I don't want to manually check for emails, I want it to tell me when an email comes.

My iphone 5s battery keeps on draining when I am not using it

Everytime, when I locked my phone the battery keeps draining. I had background app refresh off, i fetch hourly to my email, I am using still wallpapers and even making some of my app notifications not show in the lock screen and getting rid of the apps in the background everytime before locking my phone. Even doing all that, my phone's battery keeps draining. My operation system is 7.0.4 btw.

Also... Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...

IPad 2 battery draining faster with iOS 7

Since upgrading to iOS 7, my iPad 2's batter has been draining much faster than before the upgrade.
One thing that might be contributing to this is how 7 revamped how it displays "open" applications. Prior to 7 if you hit the Home button twice it would diisplay a row of icons at the bottom showing which apps were "active" or "open." You could press an hold any icon and all icons would go int wiggle mode, and you could select certain processes and quit them. This I did regualrly.
Now with iOS 7, tapping the Home button twice shows large images of the last screen in the apps shown at the bottom, showing just two or three, making it a slow process to side-scroll to find an app. Gone is the means of quitting open apps as well. My list of open apps is pretty long and I'm sure that with so many open processes, the batter charge takes a big hit.
I've looked in all the system settings and don't see any way to toggle or set the system such that I can quit running apps.
So, here's my two-part question:
1. What steps can I take to slow the battery drain?
2. How can I close open apps?
Bonus: How to revert the ugly "open apps" display back to something that resembles previous versions, particularly how to get rid of the screenshots that take up so much room?
Many thanks!
-Tod
*iPad 2 running iOS 7
PS: There ought to be a forum for iOS issues rather than forcing users to post in hardware-specific forums.

If the drain seems extreme there may be something else going on.
First try a reset: Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons and don’t let go until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo appears (no data will be lost)
If that does not help, backup & Restore the iOS Software

IPad 2 AND iphone 4 battery draining FAST since IOS 6 update!

I have done EVERYTHING I can think of and that has been suggested all over the World Wide Web to improve the battery life of both my iPad 2 and iPhone 4 since the IOS 6 software update. Nothing works!!!! I am leaving town in a week, and I would like my phone to be working the way it did before.
Still taking suggestions to fix this.
APPLE please do something. I am losing faith, and I am also losing my desire to buy the new iPhone 5!
APPLE PLEASE HELP!
Thanks in advance!

Have you tried closing all apps? Double tab the Home button, then tap down on an icon and hold for about 3 seconds, until the icons are moving slightly. Click on the above every App.

Battery on iPhone 5 drains fast on iOS 8.1 when in standby.

Let my phone alone over night, it was at 93% when I went to bed but after waking up, battery life is at 38%.
I cleared all my multi-tasking history and such.
Could it be the software draining the battery?

Mines started happening too since the update to 6.0.2 why still no fix.

I want to update to ios5.1.1 but i read that it will make my battery drain faster than ios 5.01

is that right?
i have iphone 4s ios 5.0.1

Apple is not going to produce a software update that is going to set you back, and it wouldn't be created if there was anything negative about it. Here is some info on the batteries

HT4623 iphone 4s drains faster after iOS 6.1.2 upgrade

Got message saying need to upgrade to iOS 6.1.2 to prevent or repair problems causing battery to drain quickly, which was happening recently.
Udated software and battery still drains way too fast.
Is Apple aware of this?
What are they doing to fix it since it appears to be a software issue?

Generally this is a sign that the iPhone had previously been
hacked/modified/jailbroken and the update relocked it to the
original wireless carrier. If this is the case, only that wireless
carrier can unlock your iPhone. You must contact them to see
if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
Where did you acquire this iPhone?
What wireless carrier did you use before this problem?
Does the app Cydia appear on your iPhone?
What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>About=>Carrier?

LENOVO K3 NOTE ISSUE-BATTERY DRAINING FAST AND USB PROBLEM!!!!!!!!

i have a problem in my K3 note, bought recently through flipkart..the phone was working fine but suddenly, now USB is not detected...whenever, i attach to the AC charger or charge with USB connected to laptop, it is neither getting charged nor USB is detected... But if i switch off the phone, now the phone gets charged... i have not been able to identify what the bug is about? i have factory resetted and also the battery was removed several times..however, the same problem is occuring.... Hope, i can get a solution from this portal Battery is also draining fast after this bug has started. Thanks in advance.

since many people reporting the heating issue.
i would like to ask you a favor to help me to do a experiment.
i am not sure if you guys know we have a feature called "background app management", it can restrict background tasks to block them consuming current drain. The heat could be generated by drain consumption.
the feature is at Settings->Power manager->Background app management.
I made a video shown at below link:

Please let me know if you can get some benefit on this issue.
Thanks

My jetpack won't charge. I only use the cable that came with it. and by won't charge, I mean even when plugged in the battery keeps dropping and never goes up.

My MiFi jetpack 6620 doesn't charge. I've plugged it into the charger that comes with it, and only that charger. But nothing happens. The battery keeps getting drained. I first attempted when it was at 16%. After being on the charger a few hours, it dropped to 15%, then 14%. I'm currently at 12%. I've tried different outlets at different locations. And I've tested the charger cable on my phone and it charges that just fine. Which is more likely: the battery is defective or there is a problem with the jetpack itself? and the real kicker is that I've only had it for a week.

Happy Friday cjyoyomasta! I wanted to reach out to you to see if you received the assistance that you need with your jetpack. May I ask have you took the device to the store for assistance? If so, what was the results? If you can provie us with a status update then we can assist, if still needed.
Thank you…
