Charging iPhone battery?

Will the iPhone battery charged when the device is switched off?
Thanks for answer.
Manfred

yes, though when you plug it in it will switch itself back on.
Should you turn it off again after plugged in it will still charge.

The iPhone includes a one year warranty.
If you are in a country where Apple provides direct support and has an Apple store, you can contact Apple or make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.
If you live an a country where Apple doesn't provide direct support - support for the iPhone is handled by the official carrier for the iPhone, contact your carrier.

Optimizing iPhone battery life: Between charges and before replacement

FYI. An excellent iPhone battery care article by iPhoneAtlas.com:
Optimizing iPhone battery life: Between charges and before replacement
http://www.iphoneatlas.com/2007/07/09/optimizing-iphone-battery-life-between-cha rges-and-before-replacement/

OK, I agree that is a completely false statement. The rest of the article is pretty good.
If you assume a linear decrease in battery charge for each full cycle (which it really isn't, but much easier to model in a spreadsheet). Then 80% of original charge after 400 full cycles is approximately 0.8% loss in battery charge per full charge cycle (again this is a simplification, stay with me). This means that after 400 cycles, you are at approximately 80% of your original total charge level. As stated by Apple.
So, extrapolating that out to EOL (end of life) which Apple assumes to be 50% battery charge, it would take approximately 1,000 full charge cycles for your battery to be EOL (according to Apple). It would actually be slightly less than that since it won't be a linear function.
For me, that's 2 to 4 years of use depending on whether or not I continue using the iPhone as much as I have this first full week.

Faulty UK USB Power Brick/Wall Charger Drains iPhone Battery

I'm writing this post more from an informative perspective, rather than from a question seeking a response.
I have a genuine Apple UK USB wall charger which is at least 2 years old - it either came with my current iPhone 5 or old iPhone 4 from 4 years ago (both look identical).
Recently on charging my phone overnight, I've woken up (late - as the alarm consequently didn't work) to find that the power had drained from my phone rather than the expected charge happening. Having an old phone, I assumed it was the fault of the phone and booked it in for a genius bar visit. Being annoyed about the 1 week+ delay for the next genius bar appointment, I purchased a new iPhone to use temporarily for a week which would then be returned for a full refund on receipt of a replacement for mine.
On testing out the brand new iPhone with the charger, it appears that the same happens:
On plugging in the new phone to the charger once it has been fully charged (100%), within 5 minutes the charge in the phone has become 97%.
I'm guessing it is quite unusual for a USB brick to fail in this way - to actually drain the phone of charge?

I have the dock connector option for my factory stereo as well and am also seeing it drain the iPhone battery. What's odd is that it used to charge just fine.
Initially the iPhone wouldn't route audio through the dock connector in my vehicle. It would see that it was plugged in and gave the Airplane Mode prompt, but would only play audio from its internal speaker. It did, however, charge as expected. Then the iPhone software update 1.0.1 came out which solved the audio issue and allowed me to get the audio to my deck properly. I can't say for sure if it was still charging the iPhone at that point, but it definitely wasn't /draining/ it. Then, right around the time of the 1.0.2 update I started to notice significant drops in battery power when unplugging it after a drive to or from work (usually around 25 minutes). The audio still works fine, but the battery seems to drop at least 15-20% over that drive, whether I have any music playing or just have the iPhone idle but plugged in.
So, software problem, maybe? I have a hard time believing something suggendly changed with the dock connector in my vehicle...

Ref:iphone 3G.I was visiting the US last week.One day my iphone battery completely drained overnight.I re-charged it but ever since it has either come up with a message saying it's registering, or that I need to register it.It was registered years ago.

Ref: iphone 3G. I was visiting the US last week. My iphone battery completely drained overnight. I re-charged it but ever since it has either come up with a message saying it's registering or saying I need to register it. I'm concerned that if I re-register it on itunes I'll lose all my data. I originally registered it a couple of years or so back, when it was new. Any advice much appreciated.

Thank you for quick reply. The data is still there - every so often when I switch it on, it comes up with the main icon screen, rather than the emegency calls only screen (which it does most of the time), and I can get to my contacts, photos, and so on, but it won't connect to any mobile/cell network provider, including my network here in the UK - O2.

I have just updated my 4s to IOS7. and now my battery discharge is significantly increase. With my Iphone fully charged, the battery run out within 6 hours without using the phone at all. Would it be possible to get the IOS 6.1.3 back to my 4S?

Hi, thanks for the suggestion. I have tried as you suggested, and when opening the "purchased" apps some have the icloud logo next to them, but I only have "OPEN" against "Find My iPhone". When opening it up, it goes through the same routine; needs to be updated before proceeding, and wouldn't update because I don't have IOS8.
Anything else I could try, or am I doomed!
All of your help is much appreciated, thanks

Hello! I have my iPhone 5 since two weeks ago. I've neve had a problem. Today it was charged of battery but suddenly it turned off. I've try to turn on but I can't. Anybody knows what ca I do?

Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears, ignore the Slide to Power Off that appears)
Note: You will not lose any data.

Why i can't see the "full charged logo" when iphone battery full 100% in ios7.0.2

Why i cant see the "full charge logo" when iphone battery was full charged ?
product : iphone 5
ios : 7.0.2

I only see the "lightning icon", when the percentage of the battery is 100% and the battery icon is fully green
*google pics
This is i mean, i cannot see the "plug icon" when battery is full,
Its different when i use ios 6, the "plug icon" appears when the battery is completely full

How can I charge the battery on my US iPad and iPhone while in Europe?

I will be travelling to Ireland next month. I would like to bring my iPad 2 and iPhone 5s, but am concerned about charging the battery in Europe due to the voltage difference. Will the current charger work? Do I need to use a voltage converter for these devices?

All Apple chargers work from 100-240VAC, 50-60Hz power. All you will need is a plug adapter for the country you are in.
You can use your iPad charger to charge your iPhone (also, it will charge it faster than the iPhone charger).
 Cheers, Tom
Have a great time on your trip.

Cannot charge my iphone 4 on ios7 it say charging but battery won't go up.

Cannot charge my iphone 4 on ios7 it say charging but battery won't go up.

I have a cracked screen, but not the extent that it should not appear black.
How do you know that? Are you a trained iPhone tech?
Try resetting the phone (no data loss): press both the home and power buttons for up to 1 minute, releasing when the Apple logo appears.

Always charged iphone 5 battery to full..can or can't?

Is it harmful for my iphone battery if i always charged it to full everytime it's percentage is reducing? for example, in a day, i'm fully charged and plugged it out and used it for sometimes untl 89% then i plug it back to let it full to 100%. then unplugged use it for a while, and then charged it back to make it 100% again. The reason why is because sometimes maybe I will go out for some business and i need to get my iphone fully charged because i don't have any power bank. So is it harmful if I'm keeping doing that? And is it harmful too if i let it plugged for a some time even the battery was fully charged? thanks for your feedback guys

Hi Friend,
I usually recharge the battery until reach 80 to 90%. If you always full recharge the battery, the battery will drain quite fast.
Make a full recharge just once a month (says IOS 6 User's Guide).
My battery life is over 15 hors with a single charge. In stand by (without make calls, text messages, games or something else), I already presented up 30 hours a single charge!
But you can buy a external recharger. So when you need to recharge your device you just need plug in in the external recharger
Hope it will be helpful

My iphone battery drops even plugged to charging, after charged to some percentage

When i plug in my iphone 4s to charging the battery charges upto 60 or 70% and then it stops charging and the battery starts to drop down, even plugged in to charging and shows charging sign. After i replug again it goes upto 93% but not further no matter how many times i replug. I have been facing this problem since i have updated my phone from iOs 7 to iOs 8.
Need help.
Regards.

Will iPhone battery charger work with my iPad 2 ?

Will iPhone battery charger work with my iPad 2 ?

It does work but it's not recommended:
iPhone charger is 5W
iPad needs 10W
So, yes you can charge an iPad but the iPhone charger will get spoiled and the charging will be very slow.
Hope this helps,
Ricc
