Or just remove the battery......that would probably be the best thing to do.
I wouldn't remove the battery. Here's a quote from the forum FAQ: https://forum-en.msi.com/faq/article/battery-advice

Battery advice
Author Stu on 17 March, 2011 | Print | Bookmark
If you want to use your laptop battery as long as possible, then use this guideline:
1: First time usage, do not start the notebook right away, but charge the battery FULL before turning the machine on.
2: Never ever drain the battery totally, best recharge before 10% is reached or when ever you can.
3: Do not put the laptop in the Sun or use it at very HOT places, high temps reduce the lifetime greatly.
4: Do NOT store your battery for longer periods of time, best recharge every few weeks or keep it recharged.
I advise to keep it in the laptop, although some prefer doing AC without, however it must be kept charged always! (inserted does that).
5: Do NOT pressure the battery to maximum current levels, Lithium-Ion do not handle that well, this means overclocking and gaming on batteries.
No matter if it's called a gaming laptop, game on AC, at all times.
If you want to read more: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_ion_battery
Also this is a must read: http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/lithium-ion-battery.htm
I suggest you read it as these batteries can be killed quite easily if you use them the wrong way.
If somebody tell you to drain it totally empty, then they don't know what they are talking about and you are well on your way to kill it.
A well handled Lithium-Ion battery lasts minimal 3 years (but will die after time), no matter if you use it or not, but when misused it can be over in days.

IPhone 4s battery drain: one of the reasons

Hi All!
I found one of the reason of battery drainage. I'm sure by 100% and that's why:
Since the day 1 I have very good battery life: about 0.3-0.5% battery off during standby, charge needed 1 per 2 days etc. Nothing to complain. It was during 2 months already. Most of things on.
I use the iPhone with 2 simcards and change it about twice a month. Today morning I did the next exchange. I put in the same card I mostly use. I was in a car and plug the iPhone to charger. I found that the phone became unusual warm during charge and most strange that it became warm near the sim-slot.
I charged it for 100% and unplug. And I was wondered - the battery drained to 1% within 6 hours! It was a 15 hours drive so I had time. I charge the iPhone for 25% and was noticed then that discharge was about 1% every 3-4 minutes. AND! The sim slot still little bit warm.
At home I take the SIM away and went to sleep with 55% of charge. After 6 hours of dreams I got 52% - about 0.5% per hour as usual.
I put the SIM back but clean it (by ditry t-shirt honestly). And now the discharge is normal again and nothing warm.

2 days battery back up with iphone 4S ??? looks like you don't even use your phone. but keep it for show off. well better sell it and buy a basic phone just to keep it with you and make 1 call per day.

Am I the only one experiencing battery drain with the 6.1.3 upgrade? It went from 100% to 63% in 7 hours WITH NO USE!

Am I the only one experiencing battery drain with the 6.1.3 upgrade? It went from 100% to 63% in 7 hours WITH NO USE! I've had worse luck with the i5 than the i4. This is the first time I regret being in a two year contract. I might add that this is my 3rd i5

So now 12 days later and another replacement I'm still having issues and apple still isn't helping. My phone has started shutting off unexpectedly again today. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to go from here?

After the latest iOS update (8.1.2) my battery drains in 4-5 hours, on standby (5S 16gb) - and I'm not the only one

Hello,
Since the latest update, my iPhone 5S's battery life has decreased significantly.
In the past, I've never ran into any issues. I have my 5S for over an year now.
Prior to the 8.1.2 update, a full battery lasted for about 24h (usage time >= 4h) to 50-60 hrs (on standby, no usage).
However, after updating, I can see my battery decrease in an alert mode ( about 2-3 % every 3-4 minutes, even on standby).
I've tried all the solutions possible, including but not limited to:
- downgrading to iOS 8.1.1 (I managed to do it, because Apple is still signing the IPSW files). - didn't work, no improvement
- restoring and updating again to 8.1.2 , starting from scratch (I've backed up all my stuff first, restored, updated, set iphone as 'new' , didn't put my data back on) - didn't work, no improvement
I've also chatted with the tech support today and they diagnosed my device, saying:
Quoting support operator:
"Good news, it seems that everything for the hardware side —WiFi, Cellular, and Battery is looking beautiful! That is awesome! Some of the software though does seem to be affecting some things I do see. So, we have found out what the cause is. Next step is getting it taken care of so it doesn’t continue. I want to make sure you don’t have to keep worrying about your battery life."
The only fix they offered was restoring and updating to the latest version, 8.1.2 , again. I've told them I've already tried it, but I thought to give it another try. Unsuccessful again, battery still draining quickly.
I've discussed with another operator about 7 hours later, describing my problem and also told them other users experience this issue too:
Iphone iOS 8.1.2 battery drain remains
No iOS 8 Battery Drain Problems Until iOS 8.1.2
These are only two topics I've found on apple support forums, but many others are experiencing this too.
The technical support employee told me that Apple didn't yet discover this bug and if they do (on a large scale) they will issue an update, or a fix.
That's why I ask you all who have this issue to come and post here, to let Apple know we want our devices to work normally again.
I can't use my iphone if, it drains 100% of battery in 5-6 hours without abnormal usage time!! I also don't think it's healthy for the battery to recharge it 2-3 times a day.
Something needs to be done. I regret every day my decision to update to this version of iOS . I will never update again prior to reading other users' experince on the update.
Please, Apple, do something!
Oh, and by the way, I would go to a service to have this looked into by a specialist, but in my country (and I'm sure there are other countries too) there aren't any Apple services , only shops. And I can't risk taking my phone to a local GSM repair shop, I don't trust them.
Hoping for the best,

I Have the same issue on a brand new iPad mini 2. My battery is only lasting up to 5 hours. I went on chat with Apple last night and they said my battery is fine and its a Safari issue. I'm literally losing 1% every 3-4 minutes. I tried recalibrating my battery, signing out of iCloud, shutting off all locations, turning off background app refresh, restoring network settings, restoring all, and finally restoring from iTunes with no luck. This is just awful. I got this iPad so I could use it on my long flight for a trip I have coming up, and unfortunately, it's not going to last that long, plus I'm concerned about how many times i will be recharging my battery because of this since battery's do have a life cycle dependent on the number of charges. This is frustrating and needs to be fixed ASAP and addressed by Apple.
By the way, Apple told me to bring my device to the Apple Store because it's still under warranty. That's great and all, but I'm going to waste my time if there is no fix for this issue.
Ok so you want Apple to address the problem, but yet you don't want to take it to them just in case they can't fix it? What if they can fix it? Complaining here certainly won't fix it.

How do I stop extreme idle battery drain on my HTC One?

I go to be with a full battery and wake up with 9% battery remaining. I have cleared my cache, but that hasn't worked. Please help. I shouldn't have to leave it on the charger all night in order to keep my battery full.

I appreciate everyone's help and suggestions.
@SuzyQ -thanks, most of the suggestions, I have already done. I did change global to LTE/CDMA.
B33 . - I did download the app, but it's foreign to me, all of that stuff and I don't knowhow to change Network cell standby. Thanks.
When I went to work this morning, my battery was 98%. I checked email and looked at fb briefly. When I got home the power was 78%. It is now 17%. I have probably been on it about 1-2 hours off and on, not continuously though. Usage is as follows: fb and wifi at 13%. HTC Blinkfeed and Cell Standby 10%. Everything else is less than 9% and that is about 8 things.
I still think my battery drain is high. Any other suggestions? karenc is this normal?

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..:(

Typing in ALL CAPS is considered shouting, is difficult to read and is rude. Your help is very much appreciated, but please turn OFF your CAPS LOCK

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.

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.

Verizon iPhone 4 Battery Draining issue (continued)

This is not a question or help topic but more of an announcement. Here's my story:
I preordered the phone on it's February 3rd date and recieved the phone on February 7th. I did as Apple instructs when you get a new idevice (drain the battery down till it dies then recharge it to 100%.) I did that and began to use it, and keep in mind this was not heavy usage at all. I didn't have any app store apps installed at all, I set all settings in the phone to the best configuration for battery saving (truning off push notifications, turning off location services for apps you do not need, no bluetooth, no VPN, brightness at 33%, ect.) Now I thought the battery was strange as I had made my first phone call on 100% battery and it was a 5 minute call. I kid you not I lost 10% battery from one phone call. I thought that was rediculous so I went into my local verizon store and had it replaced. I did the same as I did last time and let the battery drain till it died and filled it to 100%. Tried the phone out and still had the same issue. I went back in and got my 3rd iphone 4. Did the same steps as before and drained then filled it. Yet again, I still had troubles with 3 phones in a row. I cantacted apple and got in contact with an apple engineer named Andrew. He sent me a file that they created that monitors what all is being used by the battery and monitors background processes and applications. I let that run for 24 hours and sent the battery loggin file back to Andrew. They reviewed the log and gave me a call the next day. They told me they did find some very significant battery draining and advised me to go to the nearest apple store ASAP and have the phone checked out. I drove 2 hours to the nearest store for them to just tell me the phone is fine (yotta yotta yotta) and they did a hard reset and restore on the phone (which I could have done from home on my computer and save the gas they made me waste driving for a total of 4 hours!) I tried contacting Andrew agiain but Andrew did not reply to any email sent to him nor return my calls. I got the point that he didn't want to deal with me anymore so I then decided to go the Verizon route. I called Verizon tech support and was transferred to a teir 2 representative. I told her my story, how many replacements I had, and how bad the battery life was. I told how my grandmother has an iphone 4 and I sat down comparing the 2 (battery life wise) and she chewed me out saying things like, "How dare you compare AT&T and Verizon!" I didn't want to listen to her chewing me out so I hung up. The next day I gave apple a call once again and they told me things I had already heard several times so I hung up. I called Verizon back and they said ok let's send you a replacement phone. Well the replacement phone came and wouldn't ya know it? The phone still had the same problem and on top of that they only sent me a phone. No box, no headphones, no USB cable, no charger. I called Verizon about this and asked why they only sent me a phone and they said, "Well you get to keep the phone but we want the other things back. The box, headphones, charger, USB cable, ect." I told them no and that they could have their refurbished phone back. This phone was not even refurbished. the reason I kow that is because it had someone's name written in the phone and it was still on 4.2.5. Had it been refurbished they would have done a fresh restore and update as 4.2.5 was deemed obsolete. That was very insulting in my opinion. So I sent that back and contacted apple one last time. I asked what other options I had as I was stressed and did not want to hear the same things I have already heard. they said they could send me a new phone free of charge and have me send back my current phone. I agreed to give it one last shot but I am still not confident that this phone will be any different.
Now that's my story. Now let me go into a discussion. I have been doing my own litle "investigation on this phone to see what is making this phone drain so bad. I took a look at a report from iFixit.com and they revealed some pretty interesting things built into the Verizon iPhone. I am not going into detail about it but you can google it and see for yourself and read the article about the components. They built the phone with not only CDMA tech but also GSM. Now what purpose would that serve? Honestly? That is a big battery drainer right there. Secondly, they found that the phone contained a different model battery that was lighter and had less capacity than the GSM version of the iPhone 4. That's a second red flag. My mission right now is to get Apple's attention that these phones do indeed have aproblem and they need to be looked at because this just aint workin'. I have had several replacements done (all have the same issue), several thousands of people are reporting the same results with their battery on the web, and Apple chooses to ignore it. Something needs to be done and I encourage any Verizon iPhone user to take action and make this issue known. I have a website with contact information of people who work high up in the chain of Apple along with Scott Forstall's contact info. Go to http://idevicesupport.webs.com/apps/blog/show/6441029-update and find a contact you like and call it and deman that apple investigate these phones. We can get this issue resolved if we make it known. Don't be mean or nasty to them. They are very nice people but at the sametime don't let them talk over you. Make your voice heard. Thanks for listening guys. Take care. - Joe

Iphone 4s battery draining fast

I recently updated my iphone to software IOS 8, however my phone heats up very hot and the battery does not last more than 6 hours, even when fully charged beforehand. I have followed all of the guides online on how to reduce your battery usage, but they don't seem to work.

Had the same prob as everyone else. 18-month-old iPhone 4s had good battery life until IOS 6.1.3 update. Started draining at 7% per hour in standby -- Siri off, location services off, etc. Went to local Apple store last Friday. Phone slicked and IOS restored. Walked around the mall for 45 minutes, and battery drained 7% in that time with one email (text only) and one 1-minute phone call. Returned to Apple store and got another appointment on the spot. Replaced phone since I have Apple Care. What I didn't know is that the replacement phone had IOS 6.1.2 on it (realized that when I got a prompt to install the update). I haven't done the update and battery life is fine! So, if you can get back to IOS 6.1.2......

Heavy battery drain in iOS7 with iPhone 5

Hello everyone,
As soon as Apple announced its newer upgrade, iOS 7, i've installed that but i noticed a heavy battery drain in my iphone 5. For example, yesterday night i charged my phone to 100 % and by today's morning it was at 77% ( without any usage). I can see the battery percent decreasing with my eyes. in iOS6, i used to get 24 hours stand by and 7 hours usage in 3g cellular and wifi but in iOS, i didnt even get 3 hours of usage in 3g cellular or wifi.
I got an error after downloading of 753MB of iOS 7 upgrade, i guess it is something like "error in downloading or something" and i discarded that error message and it was asked me to click on "install" option and it was restarted and installed the new OS to my mobile. Everything seems good except battery drain and weather app, which always shows "Haze" even though my city was experiencing thunderstorms. A half sun covered by clouds or ground in the "Now" position. Not even updating.
I tried restarting and resetting the phone with network settings but of no use.
Any help??
Thanks

I wouldn't restore at this point.
I would do this: re-calibrate the battery.
Let the battery drain until the phone is completely dead. (the iPhone powers-itself off!)
plug it in and allow it to charge to 100% [do NOT use it, do NOT unplug it]
This will re-calibrate the charging circuitry with what is reported. It's often likely that the battery report is a false one.
At 100% charge, use the phone normally and watch the performance of the battery.
